DIY build; Texas Pocket Coil 15.5g 8" pocket coil quad springs, Avocado 3" Dunlop medium firm topper as transition layer and 2" soft all natural (not blended) talalay topper from Arizona Premium Mattress as comfort layer and APM organic cotton mattress encasement. Turned out a medium firm contouring bed that has been a dream. Better firmer mattress than premium green Avocado mattress. My build was $1,300 vs $2,900 from Avocado. Couldn't be happier with quality of it all. My whole life I have been a stomach sleeper on a firm mattress. I am a 5'-5" 185lb 53 yo male. I now can comfortably sleep on my side all night with no tossing and turning and less snoring. That was in conjunction with switching from down pillows to an Etsy build merino wool, cotton encased pillow that really helps limit tossing and turning as well. I was coming from an 18 yo Sealy posturepedic purembrace plush pillow top latex and polyurethane foam mattress that I loved but had become sagged over time. I hadn't noticed the loss of back support as it was very comfortable. However my bulging discs said otherwise.
The company that I finally zeroed in on is Turmerry. It has been a blessing for optional configurations. Before I explain why and how I was able to customize my perfect mattress here's the background: Originally I had a latex mattress which was a combination of both natural Talalay latex and synthetic high resilient foam. This Sealy Latex Mattress was super expensive at the time because there was little knowledge and no competition. The unflippable mattress lasted 11 years before the Talalay created unbearably low pockets where my hips lay. I am only 5', 120 lbs., so weight was not the issue. The top layer of Talalay was too soft. I replaced it with a Saatva Classic hybrid. It lasted 4 years before, what I believe, were weak gauged coils and low density foam created unpockets. Reddit has a plethora of similar complaints about this Saatva. Yet you never see them online. ??? Finally I went with a Turmerry. Why? Because the model I chose had all the features I wanted for support, longevity, flexibility of configuration, customer care, etc. Note I haven't mentioned comfort. The reason is simple. Turmerry uses Dunlop in various densities: soft, medium, firm, etc. Even their softest layer is too firm for me. Even the eggcrate's points (princessy peas) are too hard. Yet Dunlop's durability lasts many years longer than even the hardest Talalay. So the trick was to add a Talalay mattress topper. Even better was to add a layer of Talalay inside the mattress. Even better was to a have a mattress with a zipper all the way around so I could replace the Talalay with a new one when it wore out (about 3 yrs.) or remove, exchange the order of firmness layers to suit me. Even better was to have a flippable mattress so all 4 corners had evenly distributed weight. Even better was the price compared to other companies. I bought during Black Friday week and had my mattress assembled within 5 days. I haven't decided on the company or softness of the Talalay yet. Also considering a Duralux layer. It is a certiPUR-US certified high-resilient foam used in quality upholstery and mattresses. Also used in many rvs. It lasts a lot longer than Talalay. If you are interested, I will update which one I think is better: Duralux or Talalay. Wishing you and your husband pleasant sleeps!
I bought a posturepedic around 2010 and it was the worst. Never got a good night sleep.
I second Brooklyn bedding, specifically the Sedona models. I have had one for several years after owning some of the other big name (sealy, purple, etc) and they don’t even come close to the support and yet is still very soft. I have one, recommended it to my MIL and she got one and loved it enough to recommend it to her sister, as well… I also have back issues, but this bed is hands down better than the purple that got returned within the 100 day window, better than the sealy posturpedic, as well as every other bed I’ve ever owned or slept in. My problem is that even when going to nice resorts while traveling, I end up missing my bed because it is so comfortable. Plus, as the above response mentioned, this is a local company.
Hip pain and a side sleeper and gif buy tempur pedic breeze ! Sattva is a terrible mattress ! You won’t find it anywhere to try it’s online only Stay away from Simmons beauty rest , Stearns and foster , Serta and Sealy posturepedic . They are all using low density foams that break down in no time . My beautyrest black series 3 plush has broke down in 30 days and caused me a high hospital bill due to rib inflammation.
SO... we had a Tempur Cloud Supreme from 2012 that we loved but it had definitely seen better nights by this point , we decided to go a different route when we replaced it last month. We chose a Sealy Posturpedic. We found it very comfortable in the store. Suffice it to say... we returned it this past weekend and have a Tempur ProAdapt coming this weekend to replace it. I think those that love Tempur mattresses will have a hard time replacing it with anything else. Just my 2cents.
