Dear John,

You are truly one of the luck ones. You have found a mattress that suits you in a fairly inexpensive construction. Unfortuantely, there has been an explosion in mattress construcion designs in the last 10 years because so may people weren't able to find that simple solution.

With the advent of the "comfort guarantee" as a marketing tool -- allowing people to sleep on a mattress for anywhere from a week to 90 days -- allowing customers to return an unsatisfactory mattress -- the return rates under the "comfort guarantee" forced the manufacturers into providing more variety so the right mattress could be found the first time. (Those returns are real profit-killers!)

I fear that when it comes time to replace the mattress you got such a wonderful deal on and enjoy so much, you may not be able to find another like it. The mattress world has changed! At a minimum, you will likely have your shopping cut out for you!

Thank you for the contribution to (what I think is) an important topic!
