O.k, I have been in the mattress business for over 10 years and love it. But, I am no sales man. I have been a delivery guy for many mattress companies. I seen it all on deliveries I love it. What these salesmen and mattress companies get away with, I have no choice but to shake my head when I see it happen. As a delivery guy I am not allowed to talk bad about a product.
In this case the product is the pillow top mattress. I have delivered this pillow top mattress for years. If you do not know what a pillow top mattress is. It is a standard mattress with a extra cushion on the top. You can tell when a mattress is a pillow top by the extra seam going around the mattress splitting the top of the mattress with a small cushion. Pillow tops are usually high. So you may consider on getting a low profile box spring if you still decide to get one. After reading this blog.
