They have their own stores here in the midwest. They are air based and they adjust on the fly. I like the idea because I through my back out lifting a few years ago deadlifting and I had surgery. It acts up and I want to be able to adjust, but it seems gimicky.

Will you be providing a follow-up mattress report?

Ah. I don't think we tried any air-based ones. I'll post a follow up in a week or two after we've broken it in.

So, like, if you put peanut butter on my balls and your dog licks it off, it's not cheating, right, because it's YOUR dog...get it? it's YOUR dog.

FIrst night was good. I've been told it takes a full week to really get used to and figure out how a new mattress will work. I slept well. Two things stood out. First, it doesn't visually look that much bigger than our old queen bed, but it sleeps much bigger. It's awesome. Second, I had an honest-to-goodness nightmare for the first time in what's got to be many many years. I can't even recall the last time that happened. Maybe the mattress, while large and comfy, is evil. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

FWIW, the yorkie seems to love it as well.

Having a mattress where your feet don't hang over the edge is a joy and worth almost any price. It also keeps them much warmer! Congrats on having a good bed. A king is also very nice.

I've seen Chatham and Wells ones and laid on them before. The ones I tested were pretty nice.

I need a real firm mattress or my back goes kablooey. It can be hard finding a mattress that doesn't just start firm, but stays firm. But it's worth paying the money and doing the search.

Having dogs on my bed would be more than enough to give me nightmares.

Did you consider a select comfortable "sleep by numbers"? If so, why didnt you chose it?

Not being knowledgeable about animals, what is a Newfoundland? A Goat?

At Euro said, it is a massive shaggy dog that slobbers and sheds on everything. However, they are as about as gentle as a dog can get.

Our dog can reach the top of the fridge as we found his paw prints there once.
