Shopping for a new bed
 

King size, any recommendations? Open to anything in a reasonable price range, I know kings are more spendy than others :D

Going shopping with the wife this weekend so would like a few hints as to where is worth checking out.

I have to say check out a sleep number bed, by Select Comfort. There kinda spendy, but they've beed running a lot of sales now-a-days, so they're about the price of a nice spring matress set. Definatly worth looking into. I've had mine about 2 years now and not one problem, plus the have a 20 year warrenty on all the componants. Best bed you could ever own.

It might be a little bit of a drive for you but check out Becker furniture world, they have like a million sqaure feet of stuff there, thats where I got my bed.

What did you get? I bought a couch/loveseat combo there a few years ago, def a nice place. It's on my list.

I would suggest macys home store, never pay full price for a bed there always on sale or going on sale got my queen last fall from them and a frame for 1100...the frame was a closeout floor model and the bed is a very nice pillow top.

A few months ago I got a bed from the original mattress factory. Decent prices, and pretty good quality.

I got my whole bedroom set from Ikea. I am overall pretty happy with it, but I honestly would say if it's for your bedroom I wouldn't. After about 2 years though, it's developed a bit of a squeek when someone joins me on it, and actually squeeks to the point of being rather humurous if you know what I'm getting at :)

I'm going to take the mattress off one of these days and go and retighten all the bolts to see if it helps :D

Hahaha yea my full bed is from Ikea as well, and I seem to have the same problem that Brandon has... lol Had to put some extra screws in the front and back. The mattress is comfy and has held up for 3 years just fine.

Definitely look into a solid wood or metal framed bed. I did purchase another queen mattress a year ago that was much better quality, and I think it was from mattress giant. I dont have a frame for that one yet though. Im letting my parents use it as a guest bed it until I move into a bigger place.

I got my bed from Slumberland. I bet I laid on at least 20 beds before I decided on mine. It's a Simmon's Beautyrest pillowtop, the one with the individually coiled springs. Absolutely love it. For the price and how comfortable it is it was a no brainer. Got a slim box spring so the bed itself wasn't 4 feet tall, metal frame and a mattress pad that will block things like dust mites, dust, dead skin and such from getting into the mattress.

I have had my sleep number bed for a few years and like it. Some people don't care for them though.

Re: Shopping for a new bed
 

get a sleep number bed! it's by far the most comfortable bed I've ever laid on. if I wasn't a broke fresh college graduate I would totally buy one!

Re: Shopping for a new bed
 

I did not care for the sleep number bed. The other bed I remember hating was the one that was built with the memory foam from NASA, what a pile of junk.

Re: Shopping for a new bed
 

Thanks very much for all the advice guys! Anna and I are headed out to a ton of stores tomorrow to see what we like, I have all your opinions noted and will keep them in mind!

Re: Shopping for a new bed
 

LOL my friend bought one of those it came rolled up like tootsie roll and took like 4 hours to un roll and infalte.

Tempurpedic? It's weird to lay on those, but I could get used to it.

Re: Shopping for a new bed
 

Well we spent all day yesterday shopping. We tried everything but a sleep number bed. Last night we decided on a king size Serta Vera Wang Chignon Euro Top mattress from Hom Furnature, and we scored a new Hotel Collection bedding set for about $80 to go with it from TJMax.

We got half-off the sticker price and I get a $350 gift card from Best Buy after I have had it for a week (and obviously decide to keep it). Too bad it won't be here for black friday, as I'm planning on picking up a 40" Samsung LCD :P Obviously I could find other stuff to spend it on, but I might just pick up the newer model and use the gift card to knock the price way down.

We had to rearrange and then re-rearrange, I haven't done much to this room since we bought the house, so it was nice for a little change :)

27" sony in the corner will be getting replaced by the 32" LCD from my living room once I pick up the 40". Going to be doing a basic wall mount now that the wall on the left of this picture is completely bare, and also picking up a little dressing table for Anna from Ikea.

Thanks again to everyone for all of the advice! It made this process a lot easier going into it a bit informed. Having a king is awesome! Plenty of room for sleepovers :)
