And I know that there are a lot of different mattresses out there. What are some things I need to look for when purchasing a crib mattress and how much do people typically spend?
Thanks!

May 22nd, 2010I bought this metal futon a couple days ago and put it together despite the horrible directions.

what is the best mattess?
May 14th, 2010in the market for a new queen size mattress. i traveled a lot for business (sales), i’ve encountered some of the best, deep sleep in the hotels. so far, i like the most are Simmon’s Beauty Rest and the "Heavenly Bed" – both are very costly. my problem with the mattress: it feels good at the store, but once i had it for a period of time, the turning and tossing returns… because of that, i am hesitate to invest big money.
i know it is important to get good quality sleep, but seem like the mattresses i had over the years keep failing me.
Can anyone tell me mattress such as "Beauty Rest" really worth the money? For some reason i don’t want a foam mattress. thank you.

Is a box spring set important for a mattress?
May 3rd, 2010I bought a mattress from Costco and it was two pieces… the bottom box spring set and then the mattress. My bed is really low and it looks funky with both of these, so I gave away the bottom box spring and just use the mattress. I should’ve asked this before, but is there any advantage to using a box spring other than adding height? I hope I didn’t lose back support by using the mattress without it. Thanks a lot in advance!

A short story..I think?
April 27th, 2010i whipped it up in about a half hour i was just bored on the computer, i didn’t even bother to spell check. I’m up for criticism. i didn’t start this knowing where it would go i was thinking up the next word as i typed it. so lemme know….
She is "beauty", Inspiring things lately manifested deeply behind hate and fear. The type of woman you would hope dearly to glimpse on the hottest day of your month-long peril through a treacherous Sahara. Even if this is a mirage, I dare not move. Fearing the slightest disturbance of air would fright this wonder to flee. Out of breath panting i outreach..not thin air i grasp but a lush of delicate hair streams through my rough whithered hands. Soft spoken with a melodic voice that would leave any voice over actress in the dust. "Everything..everything you will ever need." the sky loosely wrenching rolling, lawling like a overjoyed tired out old dog. mountains dancing like the waves of some high sea, in your average day to day pirate ship story. "Today, is the day you find true love." again on this mirage, opening my mouth for words when all that spills out is choked up smoke. wishing i could say more, turning she didn’t look back. Walking away she faded into what nobody can understand. to the impossible but not beyond reach. The sky now had begun convulsing like a drunk writhing in pain to hack up his microwave late-dinner. but now with the joy of the moment faded completely the ground stood still, the light of the blazing sun was no more. It was replaced with a vivid light shone dark red. the smell of fresh plastic. To my knees i fell. No strength left to carry on. I managed every ounce of energy my body kept in reserves for future well use. i looked at this wondrous sky, and let out the scream of my life. I could not hear myself only the sharp ring as if a high powered grenade had burst just out of lethal range. louder and louder. My trembling hands and broken joints, all tearing at my own body. then out from some warp of indefinite time and infinite space appeaared something so amazing i could not make up my mind if i was terrified or overjoyed. this creature of a man with a pig-snout bulls horns framing a face so twisted and gnarled it made me more naucious then this quivering sky. the best of hair which had to reach the mid back length on this thing. so huge it looked like three bulls and an assortment of 4 to 5 wild animals massed together. eyes reminiscent of a wolf, but rather they had feline quality and shimmer. the torso of a man legs of a black jaguar but stood vertically like a would-be human. no tail that was in sight. he wore what seemed to be clothes but they seemed to hover an inch above his skin rather then touch. i could not make out what the clothes looked like they seemed to be translucent and yet solid. Black. slowly walking toward me i realized i had hesitated to examine this thing too long, scratching all the nails from fingertips i clawed to my feet and began to run. running, the hardest i believe i have ever ran before. i wished i was in a movie and able to summon unearthly spped and make it all the way back to my lonely home. where i could go back to being alone. after what seemed to be thirty seconds i dared a look back, astonished the man-beast had brought himself to all fours sprinting like a cheetah he was a mere lunge from taking me. with a growl so horrible i would have surely needed another pair of boxers come the aftermath. he lunged and caught my right leg. i felt the cold rush of blood and the shock of a fresh wound. now on the ground the beast held me there. he began licking the wound with a tongue as long as a cow but thin and rough like an aged man.screaming i tried to kick which seemed only to anger the man and he left the wound to bleed on it’s own. at my face this thing was looking me in the eye not six inches from my face. looking into me with those cat eyes, he had a stench about him the reminded me of a fresh batch of laundry mixed with the post-digested smell of mashed tacos. he said my name aloud. i dared not answer back. he began screaming. "Let go!" over and over "LET GO! LET GO!" fear as tight as a bears maw gripped me. i tried to wriggle free to no avail. "Let go!" his voice so deep and hateful. it now began to rise into harmony with another sound. something i could not identify. high pitched then soft then loud. i felt my whole body moving and bouncing. Closing my eyes hoping all of this would soon be over. i heard the noise of a shopping bag from a nice designer style clothes retail store. opening my eyes i was now awake in my room. bed spreads tossed and the mattress revealed by my apparent struggling, i was on the left edge of the bed in a cold sweat. Chloey had a hold of both my shoulders straddling me trying to bring back to reality. i struggled to grasp what had just happened. i looked around for the beast, the bag, the desert, anything to make sence of this. then i thought of the beautiful woman in the
something happened, i think it cut off the end of the story, is there a character limit for this section??
i’m going to try to find a different way to post it up here.
How do you remove the urine smell from a mattress?
April 26th, 2010My daughter is getting older and still wets the bed. How can I get rid of the urine odor? It is somewhat noticeable because she does it pretty frequently. I’ve heard of putting the mattress outside, but I don’t have anywhere clean to put it outdoors and I don’t want to publicly shame my daughter (She’s an only child so people would know who peed in the bed). I obviously cannot put the mattress in a washer, so how do I remove the stains and odors left in it? How have you all dealt with this situation?

How do I clean a used foam/spring mattress?
April 23rd, 2010I’m moving this week, and I’m buying a bed to put into my new place. Due to a student budget, I will be buying my bed’s frame, box spring, and mattress used. I will also buy a used desk.
As most of the stuff I own is new, and as I am very particular about everything I own being /very/ clean, I would appreciate any suggestions on how to deep clean my new purchases, especially the mattress. The mattress will most likely be foam, or possibly a regular spring mattress. Any personal recommendations on outstanding sanitizing products and techniques would also be gratefully appreciated =D
Thanks!
