    I have the mattress and 4 traditional shaped pillows from Obusforme.

    If it's the firmer 2.5 inch foam you're gonna love it.

    It really can't get any more comfortable I think...

    I hope you love it. I didn't however. I bought the tempur-pedic thinking it would be awesome, but I later found out there are a few drawbacks. Luckily I had 90 days free to test it and I have to say they were very nice about returning it.

    The first thing I didn't like was the smell. They said it would go away but we had it for a month and a half and it still stunk.
    The second and most important for us was that it hardens in the cold and softens in warm weather.
    The third which we could have gotten around had we known before we called to send it back is that it needs to be "seasoned". My husband who is 230# seasoned his side just fine, but me who is 125# never got my side softened. It stayed hard as a rock. When I called to return it the rep said, "Just have your husband sleep on your side for a week or so and it should be fine." We had already ordered another bed at that point, the sleep number, which we love.
    Anyway, I do really hope you love yours. Just thought I'd share my experience in case it can help you or anyone else. :)

    They suck when it comes to getting your groove on. Too hard to move around and get freaky when you're sunk down in a mattress.

    I got the tempur-pedic ... took thema few weeks to deliver but they gave me the pillows right away ... and damn ... I never had a better night's sleep then the first night I slept with these. Wow.

    I will agree with Wolfbear ... the stink took a while to get rid of (about a week in my case) and it does firm up in the cold ... but overall ... I love mine as does my lady ... :D

    See, that's what I would worry about.

    I'd love to try one of those but...the last thing I want is to be pushed further and further down into the mattress! :D

    Let us know how it works out, failedpersephone! I want a full review! :D

    What's the remedy to the situation,then?

    (I've never tried this kind of mattress, so I don't know! Don't call me an amateur! Er...not that I'm a professional. Eww. :D )

    A couple inches of sweet body love mattress topping ain't robbing any mojo unless your arms and legs are missing...or you have less inches than the mattress does :p

    I think I know which one ;)

    Let me ask this: do you get stuck in one position all night on those mattresses?

    edit: Just to clarify, I'm not talking sex position here! :D

    nope, but he sounds like a wise man, indeed.

    That's what I was wondering too. How long does it take to reform when you roll over at night?

    instant ...

    all I can say is go into a local mattress store and check it out ... that's your best move if you're interested because me yammering about how great it is probably won't convince you ...

    and make sure you try the pillows ... still think that was a better change then the actual mattress.
