Mattress recommendations

I am about to open up a second bedroom to guests and want to add a memory foam queen mattress.

 

Does anyone have advice on an inexpensive, yet comfortable mattress? Any experience with dreamfoam, bedinabox, zinus, ikea, or similar brands?

Due to recent comments from guests about the softness or uncomfortability of the bed, we set out to find a replacement.  We visited a few chain furniture stores and warehouse stores.  These offerings were usually disregarded due to price OR a long wait for fulfillment (4-5 weeks).

 

We ultimately went to a regional mattress manufacturer (there are locations around the midwest and east) who builds the product in-house, has reasonably priced merchandise, and can fulfill the order in 2 weeks.  It was nice to be able to test the bedding (following COVID pre-cautions), view the assembly process since this location contained the factory, and have an attentive salesperson who understood beds and could discuss the pros and cons of each offering.  

 

Additionally, they have a 10 year warranty, 1 year comfort replacement policy, and stand behind their work.  Your purchase is supporting a local business and if you don't have a store/factory in your area, they ship nationally.

 

Feel free to direct message me if you'd like more information.  We're excited to replace our rental bed before the end of the month!

What company topper have you used?

@Mal1565 as mentioned in my post above, I have used the memory foam toppers from Ikea with good results. They have washable covers that tolerate high temperature in line with the current hygiene instructions.

Perhaps do a research on how they compare in price to other brands available in your area. 

And of course a waterproof mattress protector.

This is exactly what I do!   And I do it for my own bed.  I am 7 years into this combo, and one of 6 beds is getting complaints.  I went to check it and it seems my bed frame wire is warped, probably kids jumping or something.  Either way the rest of the beds still have good reports.

We’ve had our Casper for many years now and are still happy with it. To the point that we bought one for our guest room bed.  I suggest that you read this resource **on how to choose the mattress that suits your needs.

@Gregory87 

We are researching mattresses via successful Airbnb hosts. Would love to know the company that you ultimately went with. It’s so confusing and I’m not sure we want to do the memory foam topper🤷🏻‍♀️
Upmarket and 3 rooms. Prefer good mattress & boxspring over platform bed and memory farm.

Thanks!

@Andrew2450  Advertising spam isn't allowed on this forum.

@Sarah977  does it looks like advertising, iam sharing my opinion just.

@Andrew2450 When someone posts here for the first time, to post a link to a business, and their profile has just been created and is blank, and they show no listings as a host, they are obviously not "sharing an opinion", they are spamming.
