Hey guys, just got a new house with some of friends. So I'm shopping for a new bed and really want to get a memory foam bed. Anybody have any one and wanna put in their input?

Memory foam is REALLY hot. I don't prefer it because it retains heat too well. I think you can get something that goes over it that makes it cooler though.

How much did you spend on yours? My buddy has a super expensive one and it's so nice, but I'm a poor college kid so mine won't be too special. Just curious how much that effects it.

costco. I spent like $200 on a memoryfoam foamie that just goes ontop of any regular bed. ITs great.

Yup go for that. Mattress toppers are good enough

I spent $125 on the topper. Best money spent ever. Then another $30 on a memory foam pillow. So good.

I'm in the same boat. Have you guys suggesting mattress toppers tried both a topper and an entire mattress?

If you can afford the mattress buy one. Think about it: you spend roughly a third of your life sleeping and you need to take care of yourself! And it's like a few hundred that will last you 10 years! it's just worth it.

I've tried both and prefer the topper over the mattress itself. I found the mattress to be way too warm at times, and the topper was quite nice. However, I picked a 5 inch down feather topper over the memory foam and my god, best decision EVER. It's like sleeping on a cloud
