New Bed Report

February 15, 2008

I slept like a log in the Tempur bed. It felt hard and a bit weird at first, but it started moulding itself after my body very quickly. We’d been warned that we might have problems sleeping the first few nights before getting used to it, but as I said, like a log. (It helped that I slept very little the night before, though.) I didn’t even wake during the night, except briefly when J’s alarm went off.

Emptying and removing the water mattress was fairly painless, and it is now residing outside our front door looking like a large purple mollusc. Hopefully we’ll get hold of somebody with a car to transport it away at some point soon. Installing the new mattresses was an extremely simple procedure; the top mattresses were rolled up very tightly in the box but when they were unrolled they looked as flat as if they had never been bent at all. Weird material, that.

So it would seem like we made the right choice, although I’d better give it a few nights before saying anything conclusive.
