[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 398479, member: 1514"] I am going to have to find a new bed when I can get the money together. I got a new "used" bed for mothers day this past year which we thought was going to be great. It was actually quite good looking. The guy they got it from had it steam cleaned and it was really pretty. It was a sealy pillow top with a pretty nice box spring. It didnt last me anytime. As I have said before, Im a heavy woman. The mattress frame they set the box springs on was one of those cheap metal ones you get for 50 bucks and the frame just sits on the little lips and it has the six little feet. I cant remember if there is a bar down the middle or not. Maybe. Anyway. It didnt take but maybe a month for the wood in the box springs to break on the side when I was getting out of bed and on the end when Billy sat on the end of the bed. It just collapsed. So we just removed the frame and put the whole bed on the floor. Still, I wear a hole into my side of the bed. I bought a 4 inch memory foam topper for the bed thinking that would help. Well it doesnt. Seems the memory foam just remembers me too well...lol. I keep looking online for beds for obese people. I am thoroughly confused. I asked my doctor if it wasnt time for me to get a hospital bed considering I wasnt getting any sleep because my bed was killing me and he just said I needed to look for a bed with a better spring ratio. Ok...what does that mean? I cant seem to find that information anywhere. Is anyone here close to the size of me and Tony and have a good bed that they like? I am 300 pounds and Tony is about 250. We would need a King now because he has such restless legs. We tried going down to a queen and that is just not working out. He kicks me so much which is why I am up at 4 am now. [/QUOTE]
