Where to look for a mattress

Hello Underground. I was wondering if anyone could help me know how to find good local retailers. Background info, wife and I are looking for a new mattress. We previously bought V-zone beds from Flobeds but we just couldn’t get the feel right for us. I also don’t think a DIY mattress is for us as we found that the layers tended to shift too much. I will say Flobeds has been great. They always answered questions and tried to help us get the right feel by moving layers around but ultimately a solid latex mattress wasn’t what we’d hoped as far as feel. They also had no problem with us returning it. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to go with a make it yourself type latex mattress. After ordering a bed without trying it first, we decided we need to really be able to test a mattress in person. Went to a local mattress place and thought the Tempur pedic was pretty good but having been on this website i knew it wasn’t the way to go. Can anyone suggest an retainers in the Casper, Wyoming area that would be worth looking at? The closest suburban area to us is Ft Collins, CO where we visit a few times a year. Other possibilities are we will be visiting family in Utah in July and could look in the greater SLC area if needed. Right now we are leaning towards either memory foam as we liked the tempurpedic or a spring or hybrid. No all latex for us. Any suggestions on where to look? Thank you!

Hi achorak.

Sorry to hear that the V-zone mattress didn’t work out - although it’s always great to hear that their customer service was top notch in a difficult case!

I can’t think of any retailers that are close to you off the top of my head that I’d recommend. I’m from the Utah area and it’s a toss up there, too. My brother who is also not a latex fan ended up getting the Sparrow Signature hybrid from Nest for whatever that is worth!

As far as picking a great retailer, we have these tips for you and if you end up leaning towards a larger brand, that’s not always a bad thing. Just keep the Durability Guidelines in mind.

Which Tempur pedic model were you considering?

Hi Nikki,

We liked the Tempur Luxe breeze. I liked the medium and my wife liked the firm. I think we just liked how cool they felt temperature wise. I also liked the soft yet supportive feeling. I am a side sleeper so I need something soft enough for that yet with good support. Any suggestions there? And if you have any suggestions for retailers in the greater SLC area, we do go there twice a year and could maybe look this summer while visiting family. Other area would be Denver. We also visit the Ft COllins area a few times a year and could look around Denver if there were some good places to look there.

Thanks for the reply.
