I’ve heard that one. By the same logic, we should all be wearing $10k boxer shorts, based on time spent.

Shifman Heritage Reserve, Bloomingdale's has great sales now and again. Great luxe mattress, no regrets but it's only been a few years. If it lasts 20 like my last mattress, I'll happy.

That’s the old cost is only a factor in the absence of value.

Or - in the things you never hear category - “My divorce was so expensive and so not worth it”

My wife can't decide what mattress to buy but she upped the game and came home with $100+ pillows. They are 8" high and hard. I used one for most of the night and it sucked. No return on pillows.

Oh heck. I've been sleeping on a mattress on a platform bed without a box spring for decades. Hmmm...could that be why my guests never stick around for breakfast?

Agreed. We have Shifman mattresses and they are insanely comfortable, I’ve never slept better. Unfortunately they are also VERY expensive, but now that I’ve experienced them, they are worth it.

EDIT: Made in USA as well.
