we bought our mattress!!!!!

yes!!!!! our wonderful mattress... from Sealy!!!!! it was a tough choice between Sealy and Simmons... we did some research a couple of months back and went through a long discussion with the Sealy sales guy back then but was not ready to make the huge financial commitment. then a few days back, we decided to give Simmons a chance and went to the Robinsons 150 anniversary sale and check out Simmons. but sadly, they could not convince us about their technology, on how it is actually better than any other. just kept saying that the pocketed coil is patented and nothing much about its unique selling points, about how that coil system differentiates itself from others and how it would benefit me to sleep on a pocketed coil system...

so we just ventured over to Sealy again, and there the sales guy (another one from the one we met at Taka couple of months back), introduced us all over to Sealy again. one thing about their sales people - they are extremely well presented, convey their ideas across logically and are technically very sound. i have not met an 'auntie-type' sales person for Sealy unlike other renowned brands... that speaks volumes about the brand itself.

another winning point about Sealy is they are consistent with their technology. the same technology is used in all their beds. the same coil system. only for the top of the line range, do they have an additional coil on top of their patented coil. which means that their patented technology is really what we can trust on. unlike other renowned brands which say that some models have coils that are more compressed, that is why it is more expensive, as there is more labor in compressing the coil... vin and i were like *scratch head*... if your coil system is SO GOOD, then why change it for different models? should just change the padding to suit the individual's needs for a firm-medium-soft comfort feel ma...

praise the Lord!!! we got our mattress at a 2k discount!!! it was 5k plus and we got it for 3k plus =))) it feels really good for my back and i am really happy... vin couldnt really tell the difference between the 3k plus mattress versus a 1.8k mattress (both sealy but different kind of padding) but that is a good thing cos it shows that his back is very healthy and strong. only people with weak backs are more sensitive to their mattresses.

so looking forward to sleeping on our new mattress!!!!! super shiok loh the feeling of lying on it!!!!! =))))) we also got 2 sets of bedsheets/pillow and bolster cases/quilt cover and a bolster and a quilt!!!!! all at HUGE discounts from the robinsons sale!!!!! so EVERYONE!!!!! HURRY DOWN TO THE ROBINSONS SALE AND GRAB YOUR HOUSEHOLD STUFF NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =))))))))))))))))))))))
