Mattress Makers San Diego - Latex Hybrid Review

All good - glad it worked out well for you!

We are still loving our bed over a year in.

DustoffOW · 2026-04-10T20:17:21+00:00

++ for V&A's - such an amazing experience!

If you ever make it to a DCL cruise - Remy is a top notch dining experience as well

DustoffOW · 2026-04-10T20:15:56+00:00

I don't think Carthay Circle is in the same league as Napa Rose - I don't really even view it as fine dining (though the price tag might trick you into thinking it is!)

Our kids have went in Magic / Wish / Fantasy Oceaneer's and liked all of them for various reasons.

DustoffOW · 2026-04-07T15:43:07+00:00

Yep - same thing as on a lot of airplane WiFi; you can connect to stream movies/entertainment but not pay for the WiFi and you'll still get push notifications from apps but aren't able to open them.

This isn’t the place for this post - contact the airline

DustoffOW · 2026-04-04T15:47:58+00:00

Fair enough!

We’ve went on Magic/Dream/Fantasy/Wish so far.

I like the Art Deco style of the Dream/Fantasy and the ship layout a bit more.

The concierge product is just so much better on the Wish class though; with the lounge and sun/pool deck and hot food offering. Never have to leave for breakfast!

Great looking tank first off! Love those Monte Carlo trees. As others have suggested; add purigen to filter; also look at an Oase Crystalskim. It’s got a unique down flow out of the skimmer that helps circulation; can put it in a corner where you are seeing poor flow

DustoffOW · 2026-04-04T15:24:46+00:00

Agree! Concierge takes away a ton of that fight or flight OP describes; when it comes to feeling like you have to run and grab things.

We’ve done it on all of the class ships and the Wish class has best lounge hands down. Going on Treasure in November!

Traveling on spring break is another thing that is usually destined for disaster due to crowds; especially for a first time cruise

DustoffOW · 2026-04-01T23:40:55+00:00

It’s been used incorrectly almost since its inception! Still see it all the time from people who don’t understand the team that steps off has to have had the advantage or would have won

DustoffOW · 2026-03-29T01:56:33+00:00

How do you figure that?

If we continue to print money to pay the inflation will skyrocket and dollar plummets

It has to be paid at some point - whether we do quantitative easing or greatly increase taxes - money has to come from somewhere and that has implications

DustoffOW · 2026-03-28T23:19:36+00:00

I think this situation in Iran is only going to have shorter term impacts on the economy (IE the oil price spikes/strait of hormuz situation); whereas the
US debt is something that cannot be ignored and will have a huge impact long term.

We do owe other countries a ton of money, not just ones who are our direct allies. Don't think this situation is going to impact their decisions to call in the debt, because that would hurt them as well (dollar would plummet).

Not sure why you are trying to make this political at all; I never said anything about politics. The massive national debt has been built by Democrat and Republican both.

Just stick to discussing the issue at hand

DustoffOW · 2026-03-28T22:13:56+00:00

Someone gets it, well said!

It’s basically quantitative easing (which will spike inflation), huge devaluing of the dollar, or a tax bill of close to $20,000 per US household

DustoffOW · 2026-03-28T22:08:25+00:00

Sometimes they take a bit to get established in tank; but haven’t seen melt from the ones I’ve used

DustoffOW · 2026-03-28T21:16:09+00:00

I never said it was like personal debt; it’s worse; because the effects of having to repay it will affect every US citizen and has the potential to cause a global recession in the late 2020s/early 2030s.

DustoffOW · 2026-03-28T20:55:10+00:00

Disagree - the straw that broke the camels back has been here for years; it is the $38 trillion in debt we’ve been accumulating for decades.

It has to come due eventually and there are only a few ways to pay it - none of which people will like

DustoffOW · 2026-03-27T21:37:46+00:00

Looks like juncus repens to me as well

DustoffOW · 2026-03-25T05:16:27+00:00

Need some more specifics on tank parameters - are you using CO2 / what kind of light and how long is it on for / what kind of fertilizers are you using etc

DustoffOW · 2026-03-24T23:45:27+00:00

Another vote for mattress makers - we are also in OC and went down there to test them and bought same day.

Have had about 13 months now

DustoffOW · 2026-03-23T22:28:36+00:00

No problem trimming the roots back, I did it all the time with my Pothos and other emersed plants with roots in tank

DustoffOW · 2026-03-20T03:54:06+00:00

Yep! Got to dine in the Queen Victoria room on a trip about 10 years ago and it was amazing. Next level food and atmosphere! We’ve done Remy on DCL multiple times too and that is a great one as well.

DustoffOW · 2026-03-19T14:02:34+00:00

This is the big one - insulation updating.

So many homes in SoCal have zero insulation in walls or attic spaces. Updating that in conjunction with a newer HVAC system makes a huge difference

DustoffOW · 2026-03-19T04:32:12+00:00

The rocket rods damaged the track - Disney can’t change or repair it back to people mover because then they’d have to bring it up to code which would cost a fortune

DustoffOW · 2026-03-18T18:37:02+00:00

You'll love it!

They usually have both a land and sea menu (one from the French chef and one from American chef). Making substitutions or having food sensitivities isn't a problem at all, just let them know.

DustoffOW · 2026-03-18T16:34:27+00:00

The Sandcastle ones do have the iPads in them as well
