Can I sleep on my king mattress in a box right after unboxing?
What Are the Dimensions of a King Mattress?
Does a king mattress in a box feel different from a store-bought one?

Like many of you out there it's time for a new bed and the choices seem absolutely overwhelming. The last time I bought a bed, the whole bed in a box thing wasn't even a thing. You went to a store, laid on some beds, then picked one. Now there are all these beds out there that you can try and buy and like the FAQ says, reviews are so often bought and paid for.
I'm coming from a 9 year old Tempurpedic Classic. It feels hard as F**K and honestly I wake up sore almost every day. My SO feels the same way sleeping in my bed. I would guess mine is high on the firmness scale, probably an 8 or 9. I'm mostly a back sleeper but move to my sides at times.
Her bed is a 9 year old Healthcare branded memory foam bed. She LOVES it and I have enjoyed sleeping on it as well. Problem is it's a queen and we want a king. I contacted Healthcare and their support recommends Perfect Cloud, stating it is manufactured in the same facility and is basically the same mattress. She's a stomach and side sleeper. I would guess her bed is a 5-6 firmness.
So with all the brands out there I'm looking to hear what others think, based on their experiences. What bed do you have or what have you tried and what did you think of it? There are sooooo many choices. My own search has me looking at Nectar, Purple, and Casper. However we've also been told to look at Tuft and Needle. I mean there are so many choices. Cost isn't a factor at this point.
