How do You Like Your Bed?

[Craterus]

With company.
Although, a duvet is a must. Blankets are just uncomfortable.

Dam you Craterus! you got there first

My prototype "Cyro-Chamber" is suporier to all other devices...

<-- Is this guy wearing a bandana round his face or does he have a very large beard?

I don't like the word hard... more like firm. The Firmer the better in my opinion. Mrs. Waki however prefers soft and squishy, so we HAD to buy a King so I could have a firm mattress on one side, and she could sleep on the other. Naturally, I thought the Girls would want the softer cuddly mattress and heaps of blankets as my Wife likes, but the more and more they come crawling into bed, I find that they've changed allegiance and prefer the sparse blankets and firmness of mine, rather than hers. Naturally, I get peeved every once and awhile because I'll turn over in the middle of sleep and nearly crush one of em', and then I can't fall asleep for the next hour or so trying to readjust to two little invaders on either side of me.

Voted hard mattress with sheets/blankets. I tend to think of my mattress as 'firm' rather than hard but my wife would say otherwise and she's probably more objective. Soft mattresses give me a back ache. I voted sheets/blankets, since that's the usual American thing, but I grew up with duvets and my parents still use them. It doesn't really make a difference to me.

Don't care, I can sleep anywhere at any time and always seem to be tired.

Right now the floor would be perfectly acceptable as a bed, ive had a few hours sleep, i feel ill and i have a few hours to kill before an exam. The only problem is i may get some weired looks from the other students as i curl up on the floor....

I personally love those mattresses which sort of hug around the body and adapt to the body shape. Combine that with a soft duvet and it's comparable to heaven.

Firm mattress. In the wintertime, sheets and duvet with the temperature set real low. In the summertime, just a sheet, with ceiling fan running.

Regardless, there are always dogs somewhere on the bed.

Haha, I did consider adding that to the poll.

You forgot a "number of pillows" category...I go to hotels and they have a dozen ridiculous pillows on the bed. Usually fall asleep without one, it's nice in the preliminary stage though.

I'd have to agree, anything over one is too much. Takes up space and hurts my neck.

[Ferret]

I prefer two staggered pillows so I can titlt my head slightly, much more comfortable. And I have a firm matress with a duvet, which is not full of feathers unlike the ones Sasaki has seen...

[Ramses II CP]

Since I think the firmer the better, I posted the 'hard' option. I sleep quite well on the floor, seems to do wonders for my back problems. We have a tempurpedic, which I really like, but the wife wouldn't let me get the most firm option so I sink into it too much.

The number one indicator of whether or not I'll have a good night's sleep is what's under my head. If I have good neck support I can sleep on a rock, but if my head and neck are all twisted up I'll probably end up staying awake all night.

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

My current bed has a soft/firm mattress and a duvet. It's quite a thin duvet though-I can't sleep if I'm even a little bit too warm.

I can sleep anywhere though, and the best nights' sleep I've had have been in a sleeping bag either under the stars or in a tent.

[MerlinusCDXX]

Soft mattress, sheets, blankets, and a woman ;p

[Somebody Else]

In a ditch. Preferably with jutting bits of root. And a couple of inches under water. In Sennybridge. In winter.
