I guess it all depends on how long you intend to use that mattress! As it will probably take a lot of use and abuse, you may want to go for a less expensive set that will make it thru the college years, but maybe not far beyond. Then, when you get set up at a more permanent address, go in for a really good set! As everyone has different desires in cigars, so to, it is, with mattresses! Some like them firm, some like them hard as rocks. Best bet is to go to a real mattress store, not a department store. Most department and multi-product stores now only use display beds that are scaled down models, and will not give you a good try. I definitely would NOT buy one without first trying it out!
