Here we go again (a good thing!)

Back in Oct. of 2000, we purchased our first air-chambered bed from a local retailer. We had bought a number of beds from them in the past (all innerspring), but they just didn't hold up more than about 5-6 years. The salesperson then had us look at the Somma by Land and Sky. Jackpot! That mattress lasted us until just a few months ago -- 19 years! I called L&S, which is when I found that they have morphed into iSleep and Natural Bed -- adjustable air and full latex mattresses, respectively. I was speaking with Lynn, who I believe is co-founder of these companies with his brother, and shared with him what was going on with our 19 yr old mattress. To my surprise and pleasure, he said he would work with me on customizing a new setup for me and my wife -- for (at least) 50% off! Who does that?! He made me feel like a member of the family. We had decided to switch from a Calif King to a split-king setup with adjustable bases. Initially, we had thought about switching to all-latex mattresses (2 twin XLs make up a split-king). After talking with Lynn, we decided that we didn't want to give up the adjustability of the air chambers. We ended up with the best of both worlds -- air chambers topped with 5 inches of all-natural dunlop latex (instead of memory foam), customized to our individual size and weight. We also decided to go with adjustable bases that were purchased online but came from a locally owned distributor here in southern Calif. (**We did this through "that other" big-box store that is also related to a national retail chain...wink, wink; nudge, nudge. This saved us a lot on the shipping we would have incurred if we had purchased adjustable bases through iSleep...which Lynn was willing to do. But this saved him the hassle, as well. Those things are heavy!**) Long story...just a bit longer, we love our new bed! What Lynn and everyone else at iSleep did for us was amazing. In just over a week, we were sleeping like we hadn't...maybe ever. Seriously. The old Somma was good, but this new bed is awesome!
