Cheated on the real-life sizing.

The mattress was just delivered today.  February 22, 2012. The noxious smell is overwhelming.  I hope it goes away.  I am glad we have some mild February days because I have windows open creating a cross-ventilation.  Can't imagine putting it in a room with only one window because of the odor.  It irritates my throat. I purchased the Twin XL adjustable "Revolution" model. The sleeping surface seemed narrower than it should be, 38".   It is actually 36" wide, 2" less than it should be.  And instead of 80" long, it is 78" long, 2" less than it should be.  Perhaps the mattress narrows at the top for structural support. But in that case, it should start with a wider base, so that the top will be a full 38" wide. Unfortunately the store, very reputable, did not have the Twin XL model on the floor so that I could find this out ahead of time. The massage option is a joke, very noisy and vibrates the floor.  I asked for a no massage option - not available.  So I paid for the massage option because I had no choice. They do not offer a full size in adjustable beds, which I wanted.  Only Twin XL, Queen, King. Be careful when buying the adjustable model. You can return the mattress, but not the base, which costs more than the mattress.   Time will tell with the comfort, and the noxious odor.  But immediately, I feel cheated on the size.
