We were tired of hip and back pain, as well. We purchased a Stearns & Foster Euro pillow top firm, and are happy with it. It is firm for support, but the pillow top helps with cushioning.
Appreciate your perspective. I’m a fan of Costco for mattresses for a different reason. I purchased a Novoform maybe 8 years ago, to replace a Stearns and Foster. Honestly, hated it from day one, just wasn’t the right fit for us.
However, Costco was so gracious and offered to pick up the mattress for a no questions asked return. Instead, we gave the mattress, sleigh bed and all, to a family member and bought a Stearns and Foster. About to upgrade our guest room, so I’m purchasing the pillow top Stearns and Foster from Costco. They won my trust with the last purchase.
The Novoform felt hard to me, and it also had that weird memory foam sink. When I’d flip over, it felt I needed to “climb out” of the hole if that makes any sense. So I realized as a side sleeper, I need an interspring. I’ve loved my last Stearns and Foster, and realize the Lakeview pillow top won’t be the same as what I’ve got, but I expect it will be nicer than many hotel beds. That’s all I want.
We bought a Novaform California King from Costco. Absolutely hated it within a month or so. They were incredibly gracious and offered to pick it up and refund us. Instead, we gave the Cal King Sleigh Bed away, mattress and all, as we decided it is easier to outfit a standard king with linens. Ended up buying a Sterns and Foster, which we still love.
We are looking at the Costco Sterns and Foster Lakewood for our guest bedrooms. Our experience was exceptionally positive.
If you want something that will last, Sterns and Foster is good at Living Spaces but go lay on it. I like mine so much I tried to replace it with the exact same one.
I am a side sleeper as well and I sleep with a CPAP mask on. The most comfortable mattress I’ve used is a Stearns & Foster pillow top. Very comfortable and support. Also consider an adjustable base. The sleep number mattresses and base are amazing also because you can adjust the settings. My life goal is to get one.
Every body is different. I am a stearns and foster firm. I have tried Tempur. Even the sealy firm doesn’t do it for me and all 3 of these brands are the same company
We found a very firm Stearns&Foster that we really like. We are both side sleepers who occasionally sleep on our backs. I use a foam pillow that supports my neck. The mattress has pocketed coils, so we can adjust the motorized frame to sit upright or elevate our feet, when lying on our backs (this came in handy, when one of us had surgery that limited comfortable sleeping positions). We both hate the soft mattress that we find in many hotels.
