I took half my day and went shopping around local shops looking at mattresses. My 1st stop was Mattress Firm. The sales person was very friendly and showed me what I wanted in my price range. I found something for a decent price and all seemed okay. I continued with shopping around a couple more mattress shops and found that I actually liked a more expensive foam/gel style mattress and was willing to spend more money. I called Mattress FIRM back and gave them a chance to show me something comparable to what I was more interested in. They showed me the Icomfort Genius foam/gel mattress and I loved it. I showed them my comparisons and prices and they beat my lowest price that was $500 off due to a sale on a very expensive Simmons Comforpedic mattress. Mattress Firm beat the price, threw in a mattress cover free and delivered the item the next day. Both the Mattresses had a 25-year warranty, as long as it is well taken care of. Mattress Firm threw in a free mattress cover "Protect-A-Bed" that should help it keep moisture from passing through the material. The other Simmons wanted to charge me more for the mattress cover. Very satisfied with the sale, hope I am just as satisfied with the mattress they saved me over $800. Thank you Robert O.
Note: "Any" stain on the mattress will void the warranty so a cover is very valuable for protecting the mattress, why Simmons would not throw one in free shot closed the sale deal for me.
