Comfort and support are very important for me in a mattress as I am a full time pet groomer.
Wear and tear on my back and shoulders is a constant battle in lifting and cutting unwilling dogs everyday. Some of these beasties weigh in at 80 lbs. which puts a lot of strain on muscles and joints.
Our innerspring bed of only six months was terrible. It already had sags in it on both sides and turning it did not help. Upon hearing all innerspring mattresses will eventually sag over a few years use I decided to check into another type of mattress.
I began to do research on epinions.com to see what kind of mattress got good and bad reviews. My husband especially wanted me to check out the airbeds that had been advertised on the telly (yeah he’s British), mainly the Select Comfort and the Nautilus Sleep Systems.
I loved the idea of not having to turn the mattress as with a King size that is a two person job. I also loved the idea of being able to adjust each individual’s own side to the amount of firmness desired. My side needs the support and my husband liked a bit of a softer type mattress.
We picked the Cerulean as our choice of mattress for the extra 2 inches of air and the pillowtop mattress covering. On the advise of the salesperson at AirBed Depot (Mark, which by the way, is the nicest guy around)I also ordered the Visco Memory Foam.
The mattress comes with a 2.5 inch comfort pad but can be replaced for an extra charge with the Visco Memory Foam which is a better type foam relieving pressure on the heavier parts of the body. It is heat sensitive and conforms to the body as you move at night.
After all was said and done, I decided that the Comfortaire mattress was the choice for us and ordered it from AirBed Depot as I received a lot of information from Mark. What really sold me was the fact that he and his wife had had this bed for around 20 years and were still sleeping on it. Anything that was still up and going after 20 years was to me quite impressive.
The order was shipped out on Monday and (WOW!!) I received it on Wednesday of the same week by Fed Ex. It came in two boxes and the Fed Ex guy put it right inside the back door for me.
The boxes (about 50 pounds each) contained everything I needed to assemble the bed. The instructions were easy to follow and I had it hooked up to the pump in no time flat. But the bad news was the pump did not work. Power was getting to it, but no air was being pumped to the air chambers.
I called AirBed Depot immediately and Mark shipped out a new pump with a postage paid slip from UPS for the return of the defective pump.
Mark assured me that all the pumps were tested before leaving the warehouse to be in good working order upon arrival.
I did note that although packed into it’s own box, the pump was not packed tightly and was without padding to take all the bumps and knocks from being transported from four states away.
The unpadded box was loosely packed into the larger box containing some of the other parts of the mattress. It could have easily been jarred around during transport.
The new pump arrived next day air from UPS and worked fine. It had been packed tightly into a box which was padded on all sides, top and bottom.
A lot of people on epinions.com complained about the noise from the pump. The noise was not that bad and it was only when you added air. As this should be done before you go to sleep, it should not be a bother at all. Letting out air even in the middle of the night is no problem as there is not enough noise to wake even the lightest of sleepers.
The air chambers which were made from Latex Rubber really have a strong odor. But after putting the Visco Foam layer and then the pillowtop cover on, we could not smell any of the odor at all.
I love the look of the mattress. It fit nicely on top of our existing box springs and since I use a dust ruffle, it blended nicely with everything.
I did have to get new sheets as our old mattress was only 8 inches thick and none of the old sheets would fit. You do need the deep pocket sheets or at least make sure the sheets you have will fit a 13 inch or thicker mattress.
The mattress was not very comfortable at first and we did have to work several nights on adjusting the amount of air in the chambers to each of our own tastes. But we finally got there.
I think I should take a bit of time here to give AirBed Depot a big hand of applause. Mark worked hard to get our new pump out to us with as little effort as possible. It was a bother to have to wait for a replacement, but not knowing how these things are packed and how much trauma Fed Ex. and UPS puts these boxed through, I cannot blame AirBed Depot for something not under their control. Customer support is hard and Mark handled the situation very well I think. Thanks AirBed Depot for smoothing things along!
