Number 5 is the best out of the bunch. But why buy the wrong thing. Go to a store and lay on some beds.

Kirkland Signature by Stearns & Foster 14.5" Lakeridge Mattress i returned this one. It started sagging/dipping on me. It also had no bounce which I really disliked. it did sleep pretty cool though.

Medium bed maybe? I agree the kirkland is firmer than advertised, even after breakin. Im 190lbs so maybe it softened much faster. I fall asleep on my stomach and turn to my back so firm is must for me.

I went through exactly what you're going through. In addition my wife bought our previous bed before we were together and my preferences are for much softer. So she said, you pick the next one. Great! Right? Tried so many, so many stores including niche ones like purple, etc. I became tired and fed up and just said, whatever, let's just get a Costco mattress. Importantly, I kept reading how every mattress changed and even testing wasn't reliable, so fuck it. Friend, I now own two of the Costco sterns and foster mattresses. Exactly $1000 for a queen. It's been wonderful for years and it's softer up front. Mattress purchasing is so tough and high stakes but I really recommend getting a Costco membership (or contacting a friend who has one) and just pulling the trigger on old faithful.

I can help! We started with the Stearns and Foster. I wanted to love it so badly. It seems to be really good quality. I was just waking up stiff and thought it was a little too firm. It has no bounce. I felt like if I didn't set my baby down gently enough she'd break her tailbone. So we returned it and put our old beautyrest hybrid back in. In the 2 weeks we'd had the S&F I realized my neck and shoulder pain had started to get better (I literally went to physical therapy for 2 years for this) and one night back on the old mattress and I had a migraine (hadn't had one on the new mattress). Was blaming the migraines on postpartum and thyroid issues. We had the beautyrest dual cool on the way and I canceled it immediately. I am super anti Beautyrest after this experience. So we ordered the Sealy ridgecrest. Tried it last night for the first time. I laid on it for 2 hours and it's absolutely terrible. No support at all. I'm back in the baby's room on our guest bed which is an amazon bed in a box and 100x better than the Sealy. I'm a side sometimes back sleeper and weigh 145. I thought I liked plush but I may be needing more firm. Or at least something with support. We will be going the latex route

I just got the Kirkland S&F and I love it. It's only been a couple nights but my hip pain is already gone. For what it's worth our delivery guy said he's got the same mattress and loves it too.

Hard as hell. My shoulders and ribs hurt. Returning. But ironically well made. You have to able to tolerate feeling like you’re sleeping in a wood floor. What would it have cost them to put more foam in. Apparently, too much.

When you feel it you can push it in after 4 months. However, it is still very painful after sleeping. I don’t know what to do. I have 14 hours to get a plush Artesia Evia from Bloomingdale’s that’s being delivered. Ones too hard, one may be too soft for my spine. I’m at my Witt’s end. My Costco Kirkland is NOT sagging yet and the edge is good. It is just very very rigid and has no pillow in the pillow top. I do t get it??? I think in the queen, it’s the 1744 coils that make sit hard as a rock. But again, it’s been very good for My spine, horrible for my shoulders like I can’t lift my arm in my sleep side. Seems that it’s mutually exclusive to have firm for the spine and plush soft for the shoulders. What does a mostly side but up to 40% stomach sleeper do???

I’m returning the Kirkland stearns and foster for a 2nd time. It’s well made but the lack of square foam in the pillow top, atop of a mattress in the queen has 1744 coils, for Me Made it VERY FIRM and I have good Support for the spine but my ribs and shoulders are killing me. I don’t know why the spent on 1744 coils and almost no padding. People and reviewers give it a 7 if 10 firmness. I went to Bloomingdale’s and they are having a 50 to 60% off on a brand I never heard of Asteria it’s supposed to be handmade in Virginia and feels really well-made. I’m getting the plush which is kind of soft for my shoulders. I hope it’s OK for my spine. It’s called the Asteria Evia and it’s not much more than these other mattresses.

I think the Costco Lakeridge stearns and foster is way too firm for my shoulder, great for My back, BUT well made. If only they had put 1-2” of high quality foam at the top!!!!! It would have been a STEAL!!!!

I bought the Queen Sized Kirkland Signature by Stearns & Foster 14.5" Pillow Top Lakeridge. It has a pillow top so it's more of a medium than a firm. It's so much better than my old Ghost mattress which was way too soft. The mattress itself is well constructed and gives me all the support I need as a heavier fella. Great price point at $999. However, the delivery was less than favorable. It was supposed to be a drop off/haul away deal. Delivery men dropped off the mattress then claimed they had no knowledge of a haul away. I had to call Costco customer service and they apologized profusely and sent someone the next day for haul away.

We got us Stearns and foster had it for four years and *just* returned it. It certainly seemed like a few of the reviews were exactly what the mattress was which was terrible and a few were fake but Costco took it back after four years so we’re gonna try them again, no reason not to explore what they offer.
