This post is definately not about Queen Size Murphy Beds, downsizing, or small space design solutions, but today's Home section of the New York Times has a funny article that teaches us maybe smaller (and less expensive) is better - and you don't always get what you pay for (or even if you do, you may not like the results).  In Joyce Wadler's article "Road Test: If the Price Won't Keep You Awake..." she decribes a night spent (mostly) on Savoir Bed's No. 1 mattress, which this London-based luxury company sells for a triffling $50,000.  The verdict?  Lumpy!  Read how she wanders their New York showroom from bed to bed, trying to find a good night's sleep.
