We have a Tempur Sensation Elite firm, it's the best mattress I've ever slept on, had it for 2 years and it's still perfect like new. We went to a shop to try out various mattresses and this was the one we both liked the most. I often used to get great sleeps when I went on holiday, I realise now that was probably because I never had a decent mattress until now. And now mostly I don't sleep well on holidays because the mattress is never as good as home.
Firm Tempur-Pedic (adjustable base) with a 3 inch (cooling) topper - best bed I’ve ever had by far. I’ve had a bad back for years and this thing keeps me sleeping like a baby with no pain when I wake up. I didn’t understand people “loving” their beds until I got this one.
Bought it 3 years ago and it’s like new. Zero sagging and super sturdy. Since I use a topper and mattress protector, I imagine I’ll get more than the typical 10 years out of it.
I switched to a firm memory foam mattress (Tempurpedic) from a standard box spring due to pain and it has been a lifesaver. I don't think I'd ever go back to box springs again. I went to a local store to test beds out. I wouldn't recommend buying one without feeling it first. Good luck!
Ok so I have a strange situation. I sleep on 2 different beds weekly. (Caregiver for a family member). At home, I have an extra firm temperpedic with a soft mattress topper. I’m convinced this is the way to go. I get great support but it’s also soft enough. The other bed is just very soft and while comfortable, isn’t supportive enough
My recommendation is to take 2 hours and go to a mattress store and try them out. I'm a side sleeper and recently made a big mistake. I got a firm foam mattress and my shoulder would get crushed.
Get a medium firm euro top top pillow top that will support your shoulder.
Only way to know is to try them out.
Im now with a stearns and foster and sleeping way better then with the firm tempurpedic.
Good luck
