Hi sharkman,
There is a simplified summary at the end of the tutorial …
In its simplest form choosing the “best possible” mattress for any particular person (or couple) really comes down to FIRST finding a few knowledgeable and transparent retailers and/or manufacturers (either locally or online) that sell the types of mattresses that you are most interested in that are in a budget range you are comfortable with and that you have confirmed will provide you with the all the information you need about the materials and components inside the mattresses they sell so you will be able to make informed choices and meaningful comparisons between mattresses and then …

Careful testing (hopefully using the testing guidelines in the tutorial) to make sure that a mattress is a good match for you in terms of “comfort”, firmness, and PPP … and/or that you are comfortable with the options you have available to return, exchange, or “fine tune” the mattress and any costs involved if you can’t test a mattress in person or aren’t confident that your mattress is a suitable choice.

Checking to make sure that there are no lower quality materials or weak links in a mattress you are considering relative to your weight range that could compromise the durability and useful life of the mattress.
-
Comparing your finalists for “value” based on #1 and #2 and all the other parts of your personal value equation that are most important to you.
The better options or possibilities I’m aware of in and around the Montreal area (subject to making sure than any mattress you consider meets the quality/value guidelines here) are listed in post #276 here.
A forum search on Montreal (you can just click the link) will also bring up more comments and feedback from other members in the area that may be helpful as well.
