Hi Joetrain,
That being said, I live in Ellington, CT and I've been looking into visiting Comfort Sleep Systems in Branford to try out different types of mattresses (latex, memory foam, etc). Being that they are a recommended business here and they manufacture everything right here in CT, I figured they must be a good bet on helping me find the mattress that's right for me.
As you know I think very highly of Comfort Sleep Systems and they are a member here which means that I believe they compete well with the
best in the industry
in terms of their quality, value, service, and transparency.

I haven't spoken to anyone from the company yet but I have been frequenting their site online and was wondering if anyone had any info on their warranties and return policies. I know some of their mattresses come with 20 year warranties, but don't mention anything more than that. I was also wondering if they do trial periods. No mention of this either unless it's on the site and I just haven't seen it.
Most of their mattresses have 10 or 20 year warranties but a quick call will provide you with any specifics that you need about the warranty on any of their mattresses because they may vary. I would also keep in mind that a warranty only covers manufacturing defects ... not the loss of comfort and support over time or the useful life of a mattress (see
post #174 here
).
Knowing the type and quality of the materials in a mattress (see the
guidelines here
) is generally more important than the length of a warranty because any manufacturing defects will tend to show up early in the life of a mattress (usually within the first year or two) but the quality of the materials will be a much better indication about the useful life of a mattress relative to each person.
I now that they can make adjustments to their mattresses if a customer needs to make any changes to their mattress and some of their mattresses have exchangeable layers as well. I don't know the time frame involved but a quick call to them would also give you all the specifics about the options they have available after a purchase.
