| rallysmurf's Full Review: Bragada Crowne Mattress |
I bought the Crowne by Bragada together with the base support for about $900. The first feel was fantastic. However when I woke up in the morning I noticed that I had sunken in very far. After three nights, there was a noticeable depression in the mattress, the support was pathetic. Admittedly, I'm a "dense" guy, 6'2 200lb with very little body fat. After a week I was starting to feel very uncomfortable in the morning, to the point that I swapped out the Bragada mattress for the $100 futon mattress in our guest room. It took almost 72 hours of not using the Bragada mattress before it fully recovered it's original shape, while I was immediately more comfortable in the mornings waking up on the futon. I gave it another try a couple of weeks later with the same result, and finally sold the mattress on craigslist for $400. I don't know if the Tempurpedic would have been different, but I sure would have saved a lot of money had I been able to return the mattress under their home-trial period.
