How could you decide whether the Mattress Store Marshalltown, Iowa, is good or not

Considering so many options in the market while choosing the right mattress is a challenging job. Your sleep quality purely depends upon the quality and size of the mattress. For that, first, you have to locate the right mattress store. Are you thinking of finding a Mattress Store Near Me in Searsboro, Iowa In ? Then it is very necessary to consider these points.

It would be best if you were looking for a store with a large assortment of goods, knowledgeable employees, affordable rates, excellent customer service, and a solid reputation. You can be sure that you will find the ideal mattress for your requirements and tastes by doing your research and selecting a reputable mattress retailer.

In this article, let's discuss some of the important pointers by which you can find the ideal store to buy the right mattress.

Product selection 

One of the most significant elements to consider while choosing a mattress retailer is the variety of the product they offer. A quality mattress retailer will offer a wide variety of choices, including mattresses from various manufacturers, difficult mattress types(such as memory foam or innerspring) and various sizes. Finding a mattress that best suits your requirement and tests will be made possible by having a number of options to pick from. 

Professional staff

The staff's experience and education can also be useful indicators of whether a mattress business is good or not. A reputable mattress store will have staff members who are informed about the numerous types of mattresses, brands and other relevant products. They ought to be able to respond to any inquiries you may have regarding the products they sell, advise you on the mattress that would be most suitable for you given your sleeping tastes and habits and provide instructions on how to take care of your mattress. 

Value for money

While looking for a New Mattress Store Near Me in Tama, Iowa , price and value are crucial factors to take into account. You may locate a mattress that meets your budget by shopping at a reputable mattress retailer, which will carry a variety of goods at various price points.

A reputable mattress store will also add value by selling high-quality items that are made to last and give customers a restful night's sleep. Be aware of the store that offers things that seem too good to be true, as they may be of inferior quality and not last as long as more expensive ones.

Consumer Assistance

Another crucial aspect to take into account when selecting a Mattress Store in Marshalltown, Iowa, isgood customer service. The worker at a good store will be sensitive to your needs and concerns and polite and helpful. They should be present to help you with the purchasing process and respond to any inquiry you may have on their goods and services. A decent store should also have a lenient return policy that allows you to send a mattress back if it does not match your demands. 

If the store does not care about the mattress, what is the point of purchasing from their store? Obviously, they are making money for their personal benefit. But customers need help finding what they are looking for in a store and are unlikely to return. There is probably another store in your neighborhood, so avoid choosing the one that does not consider the needs of the client. So always find a company that gives top-notch customer service by shopping around.

So, before making a purchase, it's a good idea to investigate a mattress retailer like Factory Direct Mattress. Search for online customer reviews of the business and look up the establishment's reputation on review sites like Yelp or Google. A good store will have a high percentage of favorable reviews and a track record of offering high-quality goods and first-rate customer support. On the other hand, it's probably wise to stay away if a store has a lot of unfavorable reviews or a bad reputation.

GunCon 2022 After Action Report Day2

Sorry for the delay, it’s been quite a week.

Day two at GunCon started at Big Springs Shooting Complex, just outside Searsboro Iowa and maybe a ten or twelve minute drive from Brownell’s HQ. While not the largest range I’ve ever seen, it certainly is one of the nicest. Four bays with 50, 100 and 500 yard targets, and sheltered by large tent looking structures. MUCH nicer than the lean-to style range shelters I’m familiar with.

After walking the line, getting my bearings and taking everything in I decided it was time to do some shooting. And was immediately distracted by a coffee tent. Don’t mind if I do! I forget the name of the roast that Doc of Blackout Coffee had that day but I gotta say it was fantastic. Generally speaking I use a fair amount of French vanilla creamer and no sugar. Out there I use one of the single serving things of creamer you’d find in a diner and two sugars. Closest to black I’ve ever had and actually enjoyed. Suffice to say I’m going to be getting some of Blackout’s coffee for home.

Caleb aka @baron_von_savant also seemed to enjoy @doc_blackout_coffee ‘s offerings

Now, properly caffeinated, off to the first bay. The two tables that caught my eye were New Frontier Armory and HK. NFA’s offering that had my attention was an AR style PCC that took MP5 mags called the C5-P. Having never messed with a 9mm AR of any sort I decided to put a few rounds through this one and was pleasantly surprised. I likely won’t get one of these guns simply because I prefer a 5.56 but the C5 was definetly a neat gun and I now better understand why people like them. Moving on to HK, there it was, in all its FDE glory….the MP7. That unicorn of a PDW that is hyped to no end and is always a letdown in video games. Due to limited ammo I was only given 5 rounds, two sing shots and a three round burst. BUT I can say with complete honesty that the first HK I ever fired was an MP7, so that’s pretty cool. Overall it’s a super neat gun, but after shooting it I believe the stories about it taking half a mag to put someone down with it.

Around this time lunch showed up, a local joint called Smokin’ J’s Barbeque. Rather than jumping in the line as everyone in attendance descended upon the trailer, I moved up the line to get some time talking to vendors without a crowd. I ended up speaking with a rep from Elevated Silence about a prototype 9mm suppressor they had attached to an MP5. So naturally that was the second HK I ever fired, as well as my first time shooting suppressed. I GET IT NOW! I’ve seen the light and am putting away for a suppressor as we speak.

The most interesting (to me) product I saw at the range, was from Law Tactical. We all know their folding mechanism, and how it will let you fire a round that’s already chambered while folded. Well let me introduce you to the AR Integral Carrier or ARIC. This drop in bolt carrier has two guide rods and recoil springs, allowing the bolt to cycle while the stock is folded. In essence, turning any AR into a poor man’s MCX. I’m eagerly awaiting their release and fully plan to install the folders and ARIC in several of my rifles.

After the range went cold for the day we returned to Brownell’s for dinner and social hour, meeting new people, drinking more Cherry Bomb hard cider and much like this blog entry, wrapping up way too quickly. Thanks for reading, Day 3 will be up soon!

[abandonedway]

I parked near the old school and cautiously approached. There weren’t any signs warning away trespassers and the place looked deserted, so I was pretty sure it wouldn’t hurt to have a look around. Still, I didn’t want to be mistaken for a trouble-maker, so I peered out at the few homes within eyeshot to see if anyone had noticed my presence. A young woman in her early 20’s wandered into view across the road. I gave a friendly wave.

She called out to me, saying that her dog ran off, and asked if I’d seen it. I told her I hadn’t, but I’d keep an eye out. I asked if anyone would mind if I had a look inside the school and she said she didn’t think anyone would care. I walked past the front door, which lay bent and rusting in front of the doorway, and stepped inside.

Spring Break 2018: Restarting the Insane Abandoned Place Checklist.

When you can't go to the beach, you go to Savanna, IL.  It is on the banks of the Mississippi River. Or you go to Harvey. There was standing water in a basement of an old power plant.  Or is that just me?

I'm pretty sure it isn't just me. I might just be the only person you know who does it though.

After a great week with the kids, I had a little bit of time to go exploring. A long time ago, I wrote about eventually making my way to Thrillist's Most 28 Insane Abandoned Places in the Midwest. Here's the link if you need a refresher. 

https://www.thrillist.com/lifestyle/chicago/the-28-most-insane-abandoned-places-in-the-midwest

I've been slowly checking these puppies off of my list. I have more to visit, but I am happy with my  recent efforts. Ha.

These places can be checked off: 1. City Methodist Church in Gary, IN; 2. Damen Silos in Chicago, IL; 7. Joliet Correctional Center in Joliet, IL; 17. Searsboro Consolidated School in Searsboro, IA; 27. Alexian Brothers Novitiate in Gresham, WI; and 28. Solvay Coke & Gas Company in Milwaukee, WI (now demolished). 

And after this last week, you can also add two other great spots: 5. Wyman-Gordon Power Plant in Dixmoor, IL and 13. Savanna Army Depot outside of Savanna, IL.

Exciting, I KNOW! 

Both spots were definitely worth the research, planning, and in the Depot's case, a somewhat extreme effort, but both also came with a little risk-taking, so I guess what I am saying is that if you decide to go to either of these locations, make sure you research and think ahead. 

So actually, I want to show a little of what I found at the Savanna Army Depot location, which I found to be surreal. Let me say that I have actually been a little … scared … to go to this site, mostly because of what it was used for and because of what I read about it from beginning my research of it over two years ago. I decided to go actually go for it and to try to experience it for a couple of reasons.

First:

It was Easter. I don't have the kids every year. I hate sitting around all day, so instead moping, I have decided these are perfect days to go to places I usually don't have time to hit up.  I go early and take a long-ish trip to a place where I hope (and was correct this time) that I will be the only person around. This method of operation has it's advantages and disadvantages. The obvious advantage is that on holidays, most people are eating big meals with their families and friends, so it's a good time to explore a place that might usually be monitored carefully. The overriding negative is that if anything goes wrong and you're alone, you could be toast, especially without wireless service, WHICH I DID NOT HAVE FOR HOURS, and I have had service just about everywhere the last year or so. My provider is AT&T. Maybe it's different for other carriers. But this is doubtful. I was literally in the middle of nowhere. The good news is that I lived. So count that as a win for me.

Second:

I have a reason to go to some of these places now. I recently signed with a publishing company known for its photograph/history heavy titles. They are publishing a new series of books, "Abandoned America." I picked up Illinois and one other state. So, I have to get my a$$ going. The first draft is due July 31st for Illinois, and I know nobody thinks I have enough to do, so I added this little project onto my "to do" list. It's actually been a goal of mine to write a book - like my entire life - so this unsolicited opportunity came out of nowhere and actually fits with my love for exploring, history, writing, and photography. It also motivates me to get out and do something I love, and it's something I haven't made enough time for recently. It's also a valid reason to be exploring when explaining WHY I am at a location if questioned. It's exciting for me. And I want to thank my friends Dave, Chehalis, and Michael for helping me make some decisions regarding it. I'm so grateful. No idea how it will turn out, but I knew I needed to get to at least four more significant sites in Illinois in order for me to feel good about content, and this is one of them. 

A Tiny Bit of History and Context:

This place is so interesting to me. I often don't understand how there are some places out there that still exist, especially massive places with hundreds of buildings that are left to disintegrate. This is one of them.  I guess I do understand that cleaning this site up isn't necessarily a priority for the DNR, seeing as I read there is currently ONE full time employee overseeing the entire area. It makes sense because it is obvious that this is a place where not much money is flowing in effortlessly, and The Savanna Business Park is a little different than any other business park I have ever seen - no offense to anyone there. It's just the way it is. That's kind of unfortunate because the actual land sits overlooking the Mississippi River, and the land contains the largest natural dune system in the state of Illinois. It is 7.5 miles long and sits 70 feet above the river. The land is also known as the Lost Mound Unit of the Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge. So far only around 3000 acres has been transferred, as the remaining acreage needs to be freed from environmental contamination and will be turned over when deemed safe. This could take forever though, because it is a long-term clean up plan, and the plan will supposedly be updated every 5-10 years through information gained by monitoring habitat, wildlife, and recreational use (www.fws.gov).

The Lost Mound is pretty intriguing too. It is this geographic oddity and is part of local folklore concerning a post-glacial hill set as the backdrop for the sand prairie found around it. Funny enough, "the mound did not appear on early maps of the region, however the lost 'mound' has since been found as is {now} featured on recent topographical maps" (www.fws.gov). This mound is super easy to find. It sticks up high above the rest of the land, although the area in general is hilly, and it is kind of oddly shaped and placed, but the land is aptly named, for sure.

Really quickly, the Savanna Army Depot had about 3 different titles from the time it opened in 1918 until the time it completely closed in 2000. It also had many different uses. This depot is often called the "Area 51" of the Army because of it's secret operations and missions, and because of it not being well known. It was also easy to confuse with other bases having "Savanna" or "Savannah" in their names. Savanna, OK; Savannah, SC; Savannah, GA … Savanna, IL? You get the picture. In basic terms, this place was used mainly as an ordnance, or a branch of the Armed Forces that deals with the supply and storage of weapons, ammunition, and other items related to that. This specific place was used to test and store different types of highly explosive and powerful ammunition such as 75 and 155mm howitzers, or short cannons that shoot on high trajectories in order to reach targets behind cover or within trenches. It was also used to produce, test, and ship out explosives during and after WWII. Later, it was also used as a U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center and School that provided technical, logistical, consulting, engineering, training, and other types of specialized services to the U.S. Department of Defense. HAD NO IDEA, right? There are lots of interesting little facts about this little known of place, but one that sticks out to me is that this Depot contained a plant that loaded bombs and explosives during WWII, including the that were used in General James Doolittle's raid on Tokyo in 1942. Also, this area contains over 400 steel-enforced, earth-covered igloos with up to 2000 square feet of storage underneath  that were used to store such things as highly explosive ammunition, "mustard" gas, Ammonium Nitrate (actually over 260,000 tons of it for war reserves), and actually later and still today, data and computers. Crazy right? These are highly visible, all over the place, and are covered in grass so that they were undetectable by air. 

Needless to say, this land is highly contaminated. Scary too, is that there are said to be unexploded devices in some areas. That's what scared me most. I wore a respirator because I knew of the contamination, yes. I have heard many of the unexploded devices are taken care of, but you know, after being there, I'm not so sure. There are still signs explaining what to do when you happen to come upon one. Backwater areas are also still closed to the public due to "unexploded ordnance" being present, so I stayed far away from that space. I know 1948 was a long time ago, but there was actually and explosion that left a 150 foot wide by 50 foot deep hole you can still find. The 4 ton door from that steel-enforced igloo was never found. That says a lot.

It really is a beautiful location on the edge of the River, and it only took me 2 hours and 10 minutes to get there. Easy drive.

I've seen many shots of this Depot from the outside, and maybe a few shots from the inside of a barrack or a mess hall, but I have never seen what I got into Sunday. I'm not saying to do it yourself. I was actually relieved to get home, as I felt like I was constantly pumping adrenaline. It started as a pretty boring expedition actually, since I couldn't figure out where to go to find what I was looking for, and then it got frustrating because I wasn't seeing what I wanted to photograph. But, after I kept searching just "one more time" or for "one more thing," I finally figured some things out, and without getting into the details of how I accessed these things, I can only say wow. I am glad I went, but I am just as happy to have finished exploring it. I wanted to do more, and I could have done more because I basically had access to all that I wanted in the end, but I felt like I needed to get out of there. One thing I have learned through all of this abandoned hunting is to not push my luck. A lot of it is based on instinct, and my instincts were telling me to get out and to go home. So although there is a lot more to see, and I have a feeling it is a lot more of the same of what I will show, there is still a little curiosity there. It is such a huge area; it's hard not to be curious about what else there is out there. But I am done. I saw enough, and it was worth it.

If you look at the link to this map below, I was all over the place, but many of the most interesting shots came from within the CL and CF Loop Roads. The entire area  is over 14 miles long and over 2.5 miles wide, so I'm sure you can imagine how overwhelming the size is. The question for me was where to start.

https://www.bing.com/maps?osid=da2d1d2d-8124-46c5-9155-351f6031ba0c&cp=42.19038~-90.280748&lvl=16&style=h&v=2&sV=2&form=S00027

There is so much more history I have learned about this place, and it is really fascinating, but I'll save that for another time. 

Here's the easier-to-get-to stuff:

A little more challenging and interesting ...

So far, it was ok. Interesting, but if I didn't know why it was interesting, a pretty far drive for some crumbling buildings. Until I searched the grounds for about an hour. 

And then it got much better - on the outside and inside of the buildings.

This was an amazing place, but like I said, everything in me was telling me to leave. So I left the way I came. It was enough for me. I actually hope that someday this place is cleaned up properly. It is a beautiful area of Illinois, largely undisturbed, full of wildlife, and on a gorgeous riverbank. Maybe in the not-so-far future clean up will become more of a priority for the remaining 5000+ acres of land that can be transferred over once safe for public use.
