I love the bed! It's in amazing shape and is perfectly comfortable and clean. It's in a smoke free/pet free environment. I'm sure that you would be very happy with it.

On a typical ordinal scale how would you rate its comfort? [Quoted text hidden]

This is a firm support, Stearns and Fosters Addington mattress top of the line. This is not a cheap mattress set and it is in my opinion a perfect night's sleep! Thanks

Hmm, It definitely sounds like a solid mattress. The only reason I am questioning it so much is because my wife is a little overweight and our previous mattress was destroyed after only 2 months. It definitely looks firm, but I would need to see a picture of the mattress taking on some serious weight. My wife is pushing 350 and I check in at 225. Do you think you'd be able to snap a picture of the mattress taking on upwards of 600 lbs? Maybe if you have a baby grand piano, or a weight bench or several large dogs, you could place them on the mattress to show its strength? Thanks Roger [Quoted text hidden]

http://www.us-mattress.com/stearns-and-foster-renova-park-firm-king.html Yes, this Stearns and Foster Renova Park firm mattress would be close to what I have to sell. Stearns and Foster has the strongest coil gage in the industry apparently and has the most durable material on top. Good Luck

To: Maria P Maria, late last night my wife died. We had just finished a meal of corn, biscuits, Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Long John Silver's family treasure chest of 8 chicken planks. We had been trying to cut back on her consumption, but it simply got to be too much. Sometime during the night one of her chins had become lodged in her mouth and her oxygen was cut off enough that she was eventually suffocated and she completed living. The viewing will be Saturday evening and the funeral is Monday morning. I am only telling you because I feel we have grown very close in the past 2 days, and I just thought you'd like to pay your respects. Also, I now have no need for the mattress because I only weigh 225 lbs and I would only require a twin. Thank you for all your help and I look forward to seeing you at the funeral or viewing. -Roger
