It was time to look for a new bed. Our old bed, only 6.5 yrs old began to sink on my side. Actually…read moreI fell out of bed twice and hit my head... that is the time to get a new bed.
Went to a mattress store, and got a bad vibe on the employee. So we left there and went to Sit & Sleep because I found a bed online (oh no) and wanted to see it in person. According to the ad, it was available at Sit & Sleep.
When we walked into the store, it was quite large inside. We were greeted by a man, named Javier, who helped us. I told him about the bed I had seen online... he was quick and honest about that bed... not to be mentioned here, but when he said they get a lot of returns on that bed I said... NO...I did get to sit on that bed, and NO I sunk on the side...
We started looking at the beds. We both agreed it was to be a Cal King size bed. When we stay in hotels, we always get rooms with a king bed, not a Cal King bed.
I measured our bedroom length & width.
Cal King bed is 72wide x 84long. King bed is 76wide by 80long. I knew a Cal King would fit better in our room which is 12ft by 11ft.
My husband really did not care that much with bed search, just as long as I am comfortable, that is what matters most. I have sciatica and lower back pain, so we need a firm bed that can hold up to our weight.
We tried the first bed out. For me I felt it in my lower back, I could feel my back hurt a bit... too hard. The medium bed next to it was nice, but to me it felt too soft... Kinda like the 3 Bears: momma bed too soft, poppa bed too hard...
And so we looked at a couple more beds, then came to bed that we ended up taking home. King Koil Onxy Hybrid.
I sat on the side of the bed, as I do every morning and night. I sat on the end of the bed; I did not sink. This is important to me. The bed needs to be firm and be able to sit on the sides without sinking. Hubby laid down, he was happy, almost fell asleep...
Javier asked if we thought about adjustable beds. I was curious, so he pulled out the remotes for it and raised the bed up. How comfy can it get! WOW, very nice. I knew in advance that an elevated head actually helps those who snore, like my husband.
I was hooked. Javier did his job well. We ended up buying it. We also got the base for the bed. It is not a low-end value of a bed. Plus, a set of sheets and mattress protector. Why not splurge on a great bed.
The one thing that caught my eye on the bed: 25-year warranty!!! That is huge. As my husband said "this will be the last bed we buy". I'm sad, but it is true, I am 64 yrs old.
We have had the bed for a little over 2 weeks now. I have slept better, my husband does not snore, unless his side is lowered. Every night I have had my side elevated. It is comfortable. We even had both sides at almost a 90 degree angle watching tv in bed.
We do need a headboard, as I did lose my pillow one night lol.
If you are looking for a great bed, don't mind paying the price, look at this bed.
