I have been in the market for a memory foam mattress and came across this deal. Full $539 The Queeen is $10 more but im not sure i want to lose any more room space as it is.
Not sure how this compares with the Wally Memory Mattress But im pretty sure it cannot beat the Costco Warranty. As well it seems to have 2 inches more memory which may not seeem to be alot but actually is which includes the new coolwave for people that get hot easily.
nice price - looks to be 150 off their regular price. We got in on a deal on the Novaform Comfortluxe at 150 or 200 off a while back. We got a Queen. Love the Coolwave layer - it does a good job but these things still seem to sleep a bit hotter than a regular mattress for me at least.

I've slept on both coolwave and non-coolwave mattress. Coolwave really does the job and doesn't heat up as much as the non-coolwave. I'd get another one but wouldn't know where to put it =P
Anybody have any review for this? I need to buy this but want to make sure it is good one.
Can I place this above the box spring of my current CalKing mattress?

Re warranty, does the Costco return policy extend to mattresses? In California, I believe it is illegal to resell a returned mattress, but bedding is not listed in the Costco lifetime return exceptions:
Merchandise: We guarantee your satisfaction on every product we sell with a full refund. Exceptions: Televisions, projectors, computers, cameras, camcorders, iPOD / MP3 players and cellular phones must be returned within 90 days of purchase for a refund.

I started one of these threads awhile ago and I bought one off emattress.com for my mom. I paid about $500 for it and then later I found a better deal on eBay. I bought a Queen 10 inch mattress off eBay (the complete sleep shop) for $300 (i picked it up in CA so it was only $20 more) last september. I absolutely LOVE my mattress. I think it is more expensive now, but I think it is still less than $400. If you are all thinking of a memory foam mattress, then take a look at the ones on eBay, especially the complete sleep shop (since I have personal experience buying from them). I wouldnt pay more than $300-400 for a memory foam mattress.

obviously...the above poster concered with fraud is having a rough morning..some warranty's are not good enough for people
back to the mattress...this is a great price. we had this mattress for a year and it has been great. i think i paid 550 last year AC in stock at B&M. 1st one didn't deflate proporly so i returned it and got a second box...second one deflated so much better, faster then 1st. Only thing is you have to drag it back to the store.
+1 for the Sleep Shop comment. I just got one last week. They sell them on Amazon and eBay I believe.
Anyways, $479 shipped for a Queen. Supposed to be 12" Memory Foam. To be completely honest, I have never had better sleep and been this comfortable in a bed. You really cant go wrong with one of these........but dont take my word for it.
I surprisingly have to disagree. I bought the Novafoam Memory Foam topper that they are selling at costco now, and I'm going to return it. If your mattress isnt plush or doesnt have a pillow-top, then I can see how one of these can benefit you. But my mattress has a pillowtop, so when I put the memory foam on top of that, I found that it wasnt much "plusher" than with just the pillowtop alone.
Furthermore, this memory foam stuff really retains heat, so it's warmer to sleep on. Not extremely so, but it's definitely warmer on your skin. Because I live in a hot climate (LA), this is a deal breaker for me. Like I said, I expected to like it - just wasnt for a "hot sleeper" like me.
Dotn know if this "coolwave" stuff or whatever makes a difference...just stating my opinion on the normal memory foam.

??? Are you saying they wouldn't let you return furniture?
I found some great deals on eBay. But thats eBay, its much harder to deal with a seller than an actual B&M store. On top of that i found alot of them arent even bonded together. They state you can change put the layers in different orders depending on your comfort.
The costco policy states the exceptions are only eligible for returns before 90DY, everything else has the lifetime policy. That may be why people are confused.

Call your local store, or better yet, a homestore that deals specifically with furniture and talk to the REAL MANAGER, not the 30 who say they are the manager. Ask for the manager of the entire store.
ucbedge, if you've had it more than 90 days, let us all know what happened. 30 days, no sweat. the next 60 days, interrogation, be sure to take a urine specimen and a blood sample as well. more than that, too bad. that's the way it is here in washington state. i started shopping at costco when they opened their first store. their corporate headquarters is about 45 minutes from where i live now.
they stopped taking back plasma tv's at the stores 4 months before they announced it here. nobody believed that was true, either. and if you haven't noticed, a lot of the stuff in their stores is "refurbished." at least it is here.
i used to be a die hard costco customer. i cancelled my membership a month ago. they aren't the best bang for the buck regarding electronics, hardware, and furniture either. without their former warranty, they are insignificant, although if you like to buy a years supply of toilet paper, or have a lot of hungry mouths at home, that's different. the food is great, but the pharamacy is a rip off.
freebeeeguy said: do they have these at costco stores? i really want one but i want to try it out first I have seen them sold at all four Costco locations that I have visited, but I did not see any of them on display, so you probably will not be able to try them out.

thats correct, these are not on display...they are in a box about 5 feet high x 3 feet. wide It retains some heat but nothing drastic. We have gotten use to it really quickly.
Dispoable, you are better without Costco since you don't agree with the cancellation of the "lifetime warranty" Weather or not use the system is regardless, some people outright abused it. Why should costco lose money because of that. And the policy they went to still beats countless retail stores. As for price, if you shop right, you will get bargains. If you need the need for bulk purchaseing (people business operate of costco stock, families of 20 live from costco) its a good deal. Just cause someone sells something, it doesn't make it a good deal...

The Complete Sleep Shop comes all attached as one mattress. No need to assemble.

I'd like to buy a king mattress.. Any ideas on the beds or bedsets to buy for these? Platform beds are perhaps best for these, right?
what are people using these with?
As an aside, I'm in Calif., but am thinking of buying a King instead of Cal-King (Cal-king seems to be longer and less wide, King is wider ) so is mail-order the best bet for all things?

The only "refurbished" I have seen around the Tacoma area are at the Fife Business Center Costco. All the TVs and cameras in that store are refurbs. Well except for the small security monitor TVs...

I bought one of these Novaform foam mattresses from Costco in March, it was a King. We paid %659 after a coupon from the regular mailing booklets. WE LOVE IT!
A platform bed is the best setup for a memory foam mattress. If you want to use a boxspring then you should put a layer of plywood or particle board down in-between. The foam needs full support (don't want empty spots like boxsprings have). Right now we have it directly on our floor because we upgraded from Queen to King and haven't purchased a new bedroom set yet.

How well does the coolwave work? Do you live in a warm climate? Thats my main issue, where i live its gets hot so if it retains too much heat its not good for me.

They only sell Cal King in the stores here in Socal. No King. So I think I am going to order one of these in King.

The model I have is not the Coolwave. However, I still don't notice any real difference from our previous mattress. I live in NC so it ain't exactly cool here either. It just seems like one of those things that people either hate or love. No way to know until you try.
I dont know what youre talking about. Costco will return any non-electronic item no questions asked. Their revised return policy only affects high-price electronics (ipods, TVs, etc). It doesnt affect things like foam mattresses.
BTW though - returning this thing is a b**ch. The foam expands once you open it, and it's impossible to make it "small" again.

Check out this post La-La-Linky for some information on a FW version (Cheaper-Pedic) memory foam mattress.
Costco.com has the Novaform Fresh Dreams mattress which is a 7" foam base, 4" memory foam and 1" coolwave memory foam. Currently $550 shipped for queen. The warehouse does not have this version.
Costco warehouses have the Novaform Elite which is a 9" base and 3" of memory foam. Currently $499 for queen.
Seems like a no brainer. I just wish the Fresh Dreams version was in the warehouse! I believe this is a newer version.
Yes this is the main reason i went with this it has 5in of ACTUAL memory foam. I have not found any other mattress with that much, usually they have 3in or less. The bed arrived about 3dys ago extremely fast shipping i ordered when i posted. It came in a box weighed about 70lbs and it was folded about 2wice over. I have slept in it 2 nights so far and i had 0 back pain. I used to have some back pains from my other mattresses but with this i sleep lik a baby.
It is a bit warm but not too much. The only complaint i have is its still uneven on a few sides im still waiting for it to retain the original shape. Other than that, i just drop and i feel its support.
The Elite version is available online as well for the regular shipped price of $550. The Fresh Dreams version includes a $150 coupon good through May 31st which brings it down to $550 from a regular price of $700.

If you don't want to use a platform bed, suggest checking the link earlier on "cheaper-pedic". For about $100 you can get a VERY firm 8-9" foam slab from Pennys works fine as a box spring

You really should edit your first post with the specs for this bed. You clearly didn't know them when you first posted. The difference in the thickness of the memory foam over the wally world bed and the Costco warehouse bed is 40%. The difference is significant. People thinking they can get this at the warehouse will get a drastically different bed and a crappy deal.
is anyone who has this mattress a back sleeper? I'm a side sleeper and love my twin memory foam (a do it myself fat wallet inspired kit), my fiancee is a back sleeper and thinks my memory foam is too soft for her...

Just cause you cant click a link and read totally negates anything you just said. It clearly states its online only and describes the 5in of actual memory foam.
