She likes it soft, he likes it hard

QUESTION:

I like a soft mattress, my husband likes it hard. How do we buy a bed we will both agree on?

ANSWER:

Your ideal sleeping solution will depend on your budget mostly.

For the least amount,(as little as $250.00) you can purchase two discount twin sized beds of differing softness and put them side by side with one of those foam inserts that will eliminate the tell tale crease. This may cause a bit of a problem when you want to be closer (should a bed move)

For a meduim sized budget, you can purchase a bedding set from Ikea. The SULTAN HUSTAD mattress set, for example, come with separate mattresses for each side on top of one spring to make up a king sized bed. Additionally you can add foam layers of differing hardness or softness to provide comfort and support. This bed costs approximately $500.00

If you want your bed to look as good as it feels, you wil want to spend the big bucks. The sleep number bed will allow you to adjust your side of the bed to the correct setting for you and no one will know that the sides are different unless they lay on bed.
