Have you ever purchased a mattress online?

And if so, how's that working for you? Sleep like a baby? Want to punch a baby?
I've been to several B&M stores here in the last few days and kinda/sorta narrowed it down but of course they all have different names even if it's the same mattress.
They are soooo much cheaper online. But are they as good?

I ended up getting a Tuft & Needle queen and have been quite happy with it. Never experienced the supposed downfalls of memory foam (extended off-gassing, weak edges, overheating, etc.) I'd definitely recommend it to anyone in the market. However, based on OP's comments above, she's not interested in foam.
I thought about buying one from this link in another Lounge thread. Some pretty good reviews and not too expensive either.
Late last year I bought a Brooklyn Bedding "Best Mattress Ever" after doing a ton of research. I settled on it because the company has been in business a long time, they have a 120 day no questions asked return period, and I could choose whatever firmness I wanted. I bought the firm which they say is on a 8 out of 10 on the firmness scale. I was going to buy the medium firmness (6 out of 10) but a chat rep asked me about sleeping habits, health issues, etc and suggested the firmest option so I figured I'd give it a shot.
I wasn't a huge fan at first and actually contacted customer support to discuss a return and they sent me a 2" gel memory foam topper to try out first. I tried that out and still wasn't quite sold so I took it off. After that, the bed seemed a lot better and now I love it. I think I just needed to adjust to such a supportive mattress after sleeping on a worn memory foam mattress for awhile.
I did just look at their website and it appears they're swapping the latex in their mattresses for some new foam. I don't know anything about it so I can't really make a recommendation but if you can get one of their older latex mattresses, you'll probably be happy.

I am worried about off-gassing though. From what I have read, it's worse with foam but still, a lot to think about. My parents think I should buy a used mattress so I don't have to worry about it, but seriously .... a USED matress.
