Well after the first few nights we quickly realized how horrible it actually was. We thought that maybe by buying a memory foam topper that it would solve our problem. An extra $180 later, our bed was still the most uncomfortable thing ever.
Seeing as we had just gotten married and bought our first home, we didn't have the means to go out and buy another. So for the past 3 years, we've been sleeping on this awful mattress.
I recently got an opportunity to work with NestBedding.
They are a family owned, factory direct, organic, natural, and certified mattress and bedding company located in Los Angeles, San Francisco Bay Area, New York and Chicago.
I selected the Alexander Signature Series mattress (Medium) because it seemed to be the one that would best fit my needs. It comes in three different firmness levels (Soft, Medium and Luxury Firm).
The medium feel is made up of the following layers:

Top layer (cooling / comfort) – the top layer is 4″ of gel memory foam. This layer works to absorb heat from the sleeping surface and disperse that through the sides and bottom of the mattress. It also helps to provide great support and pressure relief for the mattress.
2nd layer (support / comfort) – the second layer is 1″ of visco foam. Visco foam provides great bounce, responsiveness, and cooling. Placing this layer directly below the gel memory foam provides the mattress with higher levels of comfort and support.
3rd layer (transition) – this is a 2″ layer of transition foam. The transition foam provides additional support to the foams above and acts as deep compression support for heavier sleepers.
Bottom layer (foundational) – 4″ layer of base foam. This layer acts as the foundational base for the mattress. It also helps to prevent the mattress from bottoming out and improves the edge support.
When selecting my mattress there was a few things I was looking for.
The main one being good support for our backs and the medium feel provided the perfect amount of support we were looking for.

When Christian offered to through in a pillow for me to review as well I was even more excited. My husband used to have this memory foam pillow that loved so I knew he was going to love this one as well. Well let me tell you! This pillow is literally like sleeping on clouds. The pillow comes pretty stuffed BUT it's adjustable! Yes that's right. There is a zipper on the side so you can remove as much as the filling as you'd like and save it in a plastic bag. My husband did not remove any of the filling. He said it was perfect the way it arrived.

Soft on the neck and face yet supportive. Don't forget! It's adjustable. Just open the pillow and remove some of the fill to fit your preference. Available in Standard, Queen and King Sizes. No latex and no animal product in this pillow.

After testing out the Alexander Signature Series mattress for a couple weeks, I can officially say that I have never slept better in my life.
My overall all experience with the NestBedding company was fantastic. The mattress and pillow took less then a week to arrive to us. When we received the mattress it arrived in a box. The mattress was tightly rolled in plastic. The box does weigh around 100lbs, so it was a little tricky to set up alone, but if you have help I'm sure it would be 10x easier. The mattress and pillow had little to no smell, unlike most companies. The quality of the mattress itself was also very impressive.
The first few nights we slept on the mattress we were undecided if we truly enjoyed it. That thought quickly went away though and now we love it! It provides the perfect back support without being too soft or too hard. As for the pillow, it is like sleeping on clouds. My husband and I fight over it. We actually take turns sleeping on it! I think that means we should probably get a second one haha.
If you are thinking about purchasing a new mattress or very nice pillow I recommend checking out Nest Bedding, they have great customer service and can answer any questions you have.
