I want one, but I don't want to spend $3000 on a Tempurpedic. There's other brands of memory foam mattresses out there and some can be had for as low as $300. Are these worth buying or do you get what you pay for?

I've not tested any of the other brands of mattresses, but I have tested memory foam pillows, and yeah, you get what you pay for.

I just know about Tempurpedics. They're really hot when you sleep on them; your body heat doesn't dissipate properly like with other mattresses. I imagine other memory foam mattresses would have the same problem, though Tempurpedic just released a special mattress with some sort of gel in the foam that dissipates body heat properly.
I also know from a coworker who recently bought one that the mattress is considered 'proprietary', and if you use a different boxspring other than a tempurpedic one it voids the warranty on the mattress  What's next, your mattress won't work unless it has an internet connection?

Well, I'm not buying a Tempurpedic because its way out of my price range. Their cheapest beds still cost over $1,000. That's craziness.
See this one? http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Swiss-Lux-8-inch-Full-size-European-style-Memory-Foam-Mattress/5183949/product.html
That's more my price range

Right, but I'd guess that the heat problem would still plague you.
If you're one of those weird persons who is always cold and can actually sleep at night when it's 90 out, then I assume you'll be fine. If you're a normal human being, though, it's gonna suck.

a co-worker has the generic one and loves it...but we steelworkers crank up the AC in our homes. never heard him say anything about body heat, but not saying it wouldnt be a issue.
he swears about it though...best sleep in years he says.

Some of them advertise as having "breathable" memory foam material thats supposed to keep you cooler.

I have a memory foam mattress topper. It's more of 2 inches of memory foam and 2 inches of regular foam.
Love it. It's firm. On top of it I have a feather bed thing. My bed is like a giant cloud that me and my puppy float on.
