Suggest aireloom bay preferred Trestles Plush mattress. Kinda pricey but best mattress Ive ever slept on.
It depends on what type of mattress, the material, and what line by what manufacturer because there are differences in feel & support level. And, your soecific back issues. Do you like to be hugged by a mattress or float on top? Do you toss & turn? Do you sleep hot? Springy vs motion isolation? A medium firm inner spring tight top with a 3 inch tempurpedic topper if you like to sink in or a Novaform Lucacor foam topper if you like support but ease of turning & less heat with a bamboo mattress topper with combo poly fill & rayon combo (for either) will give you the equivalent of a very expensive mattress but the ease of adjustability for the topper now & in the future for around $200-300 vs buying an expensive mattress that may or may not meet your needs. You could also look into latex foam topper (talalay is soft squisher than dunlop due to processing). It is normally the top comfort layer that wears out on today's mattresses vs the springs. I have owned Aireloom ($7000) pillowtop, Tempurpedic hybrid cooling, all memoryfoam, innerspring. Most mattresses are hybrids even if that is not what they are being marketed as. Beautyrest Harmony medium firm with Novaform Celliant Topper & bamboo rayon topper inbetween N9vaform & celliant topper is the best we have found for my husband's back isdue lower discs motorcycle injury 20 years ago. The Aireloom, the Tempurpedic are both great for a year or so...then the support lags, trouble getting out of bed in am. Tempur with adjustable base is was great until mid s3ction foam breaks down too.
I went and tried all the mattresses I could. I haven’t bought one yet but my #1 pick is one of the softer mattresses from Aireloom you can find at furniture row. The next is the most expensive purple mattress. I need good support but a soft plush top so my hip and should can sink in and not be pushed up out of place.
I purchased an Aireloom mattress from the Preferred Line. Look at the materials and build of the mattress. I fully believe they are worth the price. I went through multiple mattresses that didn't work before buying an Aireloom. "Standard" beds aren't the quality they used to be, they use low quality foams that don't last. For what it's worth, for a lower price tag, my husband is considering buying a hand tufted King Koil from their Xtended line. He's waiting a few months for my Aireloom to break in first, because he loves it (we have a split king bed), and might go with Aireloom after all. I looked up many reviews and YouTube videos before purchasing.
If your budget is on the bigger side, highly recommended Scottsdale Bedrooms and looking at Aireloom mattresses.
Airloom are great for heavier people. Beautyrest black are good but nowhere near as good as airloom imo.
Ok so here's the thing, saatva and helix have much better marketing than they have products. Not saying that people dont like them, but they are nowhere near tempur quality, yet always wind up at the top of "best mattress" lists. My advise is to go try them and find out for yourself, and never buy one without being able to try it first. No online only bs.
We got an aireloom after tons and tons of research a couple years ago. Had to hunt down a vendor just to try one but it was worth every penny
I am just replacing my Purple 3 after 6 years. I really liked this mattress. It is definitely more squishy than it was new. I could sleep on it for longer (mostly side sleeper), but my husband can't anymore (he has Parkinson's so pretty specific issues). I planned to get another Purple but their new mattresses don't feel as good- more like the tempurpedic we hated. Ended up ordering an Aireloom. It is more expensive but the better materials and quality are obvious.
