Listen if you need a new mattress, don't buy it at a store, and don't buy the old style with inner springs. Buy a memory foam mattress, and buy it at Amazon.

Yeah I know you "need" to try out the mattress before you buy it. No, you don't, either. Because for one thing, you will never ever, in a million years, get any idea of what it is like to sleep on that surface by going into a store and lying on it, awake and alert, fully dressed, for 10 seconds.

And if it is a spring mattress, it will not feel exactly like that, even one year after use. So why kid yourself?

Go on Amazon, get one described as whatever you figure you might like; soft or firm, cool or hot. It will be about half the price of what you'll find in stores. The mattress arrives at your front door in a big box. You cut the box open, the mattress expands. In a few hours it's reg'lar-shaped. It's so easy. And you will like it.
