Sorry to bore you sloggers with a personal question (this will be especially boring to out-of-towners; please just skip this!), but my ten-year-old mattress with a Christopher's-body-shaped valley down the center of it is really starting to cramp my style, and by "style" I mean lovemaking. I mean sleeping! Literally cramping my sleeping. It is past time for it to go to the great mattress liquidator in the sky, but I'm kind of intimidated by the prospect of replacing it. Also, I hate shopping. When I bought it, 10 years ago, I first went to downtown's Sleep Country USA (why buy a mattress anywhere else? Ding!), but all the mattresses there all seemed to start at $1,400, and I wasn't blown away by the customer service, and then I went to Macy's, where the customer service wasn't any better (they couldn't tell me the difference between what's inside one mattress and what's inside another), but at least at Macy's I found one that I liked well enough and could be delivered to my house for a total of under $1,000.

We don't have Questionland knocking around anymore, and Yelp is bullshit, but this is a question that needs to be crowd-sourced: Where should I go to buy a high-quality mattress at a not-super-high price? I mean higher quality than Ikea but not $1,400. I've been saving my pennies and I have up to $1,000 to spend including delivery. I'm looking for a full-size mattress, maybe a queen (I need to measure the space). I would love a mattress that I can flip over (just to balance out the Christopher-shaped-ness that will inevitably happen) but Goldy says mattresses you can flip over are a thing of the past. Even the one I have I can't flip over, which is part of why I've always hated it. People on Yelp seem to be losing their shit for Kyle up at Mattress Depot ("Kyle is THE BOMB")—but, again, I don't trust Yelp. I trust Sloggers more than I trust Yelpers.

Help me out!
