Tempur beds

[BoXtaPete]

We are getting to the point of needing a new bed, so it's time to do some research.

I seem to remember this brand of bed was discussed in length on a thread some while ago, but I don't seem to be able to get into the search thingy.

So, could I ask for pro's and cons for these beds, and maybe recommendations for other good brands.

May thanks

Pro - the nicest bed you will EVER sleep on!!!

Con - ridiculously expensive......but probably worth it when you consider how much of our life we spend in it.

Can't abide them.

Makes me sweat like Gary Glitter in a kindergarten swimming pool.

There you go!

Thanks to you all for your help. Must start saving the pennies if it's to be a Tempur!

Am i the only one who thought the op was talking about deep frying his bed in a light batter?

Wasn't that impressed with ours.

spent ages researching this and opted for Flexcell 25cm new generation mattress from
www.memory-mattress.co.uk (check for discounts/vouchers etc..we got superking for £610, exact same one elsewhere £1200)

best thing we have ever bought!!

forgot to add - this make came out very highly in which report not long ago.

Absolutely superb,makes every other bed seem dreadfull.

But they are expensive.

Costco had some sort of memory foammatress in for about £400

Go for a mud mattress water bed. Temperature adjustable and super comfortable.

[BoXtaPete]

Already got a waterbed Funky, and have had for 10 years. Feel it's now time to have a more conventional, and lower maintainance one.

Just got a memory foam mattress - not Tempur though - and it's bloody great!

[eliot]

They are great - bit warm though!

[Pupp]

Went for a combination of top half memory foam, bottom half pocket sprung, and this is still well comfortable after a couple of years without being over-warm (it is cosy though).

I didnt realize tempur made beds, thought they made matresses?
I suffer from neck pains alot & have decided to look into trying a tempur matress free for 60 days & if you dont like it they will collect it totally free of charge.

[filski666]

surely how you feel about tempur depends on whether you like a soft mattress or a hard one?

Those of you that have them - are they hard or soft? - I know they "Mould themselves to your body" or whatever, but does that mean it is like lying on a soft mattress?

You can't go and try them out in a shop anywhere - can you?

excellent beds, but we didn't go for the tempure matress in the end, we just couldn't justify the cost. half way solution was to buy a cheaper brand and see how we felt.

never had such a good nights sleep

I can do you a deal on these... http://www.sleepshaper.co.uk/
We have one in the shop you can try. I have one and I can honestly say it is better than most. You can also opt for a firmer one if you like a firm bed.
