Currently my wife and I are sleeping on a nightmare. Pillow top piece of shit that has a Black hole in the center. It’s soft. I hate soft. I like firm. But the wife doesn’t like firm mattresses.
But we both hate this one. Just sink into the bed and it’s hot. Keep the house at 64 at night just stay asleep without sweating to death.
What are you guys sleeping on? What do you think mattress life spans are now? Had this one for 5 years. The twin upstairs I slept on as a kid through college is still going strong. Half the time I just up there and sleep on it. this new planned obscelesence shit is getting old. They don’t make stuff like they used to....
Currently looking at a Serta hybrid oakridge II firm or an applause II firm. But don’t wanna get a huge black hole rut in the center of it after a year or two....

I originally had a sleeprest beauty mattress. Garbage.
Then I tried and stave off surgery and I bought a $4k sleep number bed set. Garbage.
They all were garbage.
I decided to try a "bed in a bag" from ether Costco or Sams Club. Can't remember which. It was a firm mattress.
Best mattress I have ever had and probably less then $500 bucks.
Soft enough for my elbows and hips to rest, but fully firm enough to support my body.
You need body support. If it sags in the middle you are fucked.
No BS. Ships to your door in a box. Freaks you out at first, until you open and it expands to normal.
Quality for fair price, I think it was a 100 day no questions asked return policy. Worth a shot, nothing to lose.
No experience with them, but if you and your wife prefer different firmness, look into the Sleep Number beds? Adjustable sides and I think they are reasonable pricing?
What about Casper?
I don’t think we want foam. I feel like foam wears out. And it’s so hot. Old spring mattress my twin upstairs is awesome. 30 years I’ve had it. 30!!!!!! Just not big enough .
The Shop
I love the damm thing, my back didn’t hurt for the first time in years!
I don’t think I’ll ever need a new, If I do it will probably be another Sleep number.
You have to lay on one then you’ll see why
Let's just say that neither of us was overly upset as we had never come to grips with the comfort level of the mattress or the adjustable base. Raise the head for my sinus problems and I would wake up halfway down the bed in the morning. Replaced it with a latex foam mattress from Restonic. Got their mattress cover to go with it. Comfy and cool and the latex is supposed to hold up for a really long time. We shall see.
Regardless of what mattress you end up with you aren't doing yourself any favors until you get a set of Cariloha Bamboo sheets and pillow cases. Forget everything else.
I sleep the best on this:
"Soft but without the sag".
When I replace our King mattress I will consider one of these.
The bed in the bag I got at Costco was a queen mattress with a firm rating. My wife and I both love it. I sleep up stairs on it most of the time and wife sleeps downstairs with our daughters. Our King bed is the sleep number and we both absolutely hate it.
Pit Row
Serta applause II HYBRID. $599 queen set.....nobody here has that ?
Reviews are all over the place. But I don’t know what these people weigh. My wife is 120, I’m 165. We are lighter than most I think.
Here it is at Costco.
It's listed for $499. I got mine on sale for $399. Literally the best mattress I have ever slept on. I bought it in February of 2017 and it's still going strong.
For a king mattress I am looking at this for our downstairs bed. Novaform 12" Bella Venta Gel Memory Foam King Mattress.
It's listed for $899.
I highly recommend one of these mattresses. I will never buy a spring mattress again. These come in a bag. It's very heavy and all the air is sucked out. Once you open the bag it will come back to original size.
If you order from costco and don't like it very easy to take back to the store.
On some of the reviews I don't think any bed would make the person happy.
It's very firm for support. So like the first 2 inches are plush. These take care of the pressure points. Hips, elbows, shoulders. Then the base layer is firm and this provides the support you need on your back.
Make no mistake, this is a medium firm bed. It does not sag.
I would sleep on this $499 bed over my $3k sleep number bed any day.
I dial in a different number every now and then to see how it changes... for free
Get a "new" mattress any time I want... for free
Don't have to buy another one unless I puncture this one
When I move, I don't have to lug a heavy, unwieldy object through doorways or drag it on the ground
