I bought a memory foam off Amazon 2 years ago. It's just as good as the day I bought it, never had issues.
 Quoting: GLP Effect


That's what I bought, too. I can't remember the brand. It's been about 2 yrs and it's still fine.

We had bought a memory foam from Walmart and 2-3 yrs later there was a hump in the middle in between us.

I found my perfect mattress.. used at that 36 or so years ago and I still love it.. When I moved I got rid of the springs though and it sits now on a platform bed with full wood support...

Whatever mattress you get, go on Amazon and get an adjustable bed frame (think it is about $130-150 for twin. On nights I can't get comfy, I raise the head and feet and sleep like a dream.

My husband and I are pretty heavy, and the best thing we've done is switch to a platform bed instead of a box spring. We got one of the metal high platforms that's made to support up to a thousand pounds. Thankfully we're well below that, LOL.

My mattress is a Beautyrest luxury. It was about 2200 and it's pretty old, 10 years? and still sleeps great.

No matter what, when my wife was pregnant, she never complained but lost sleep on a regular mattress. That ain't right and did not sit well with me as a responsible husband. We got a fine waterbed with a good interior and a liner. She slept like a baby.

And it's warm in winter. It wouldn't be so great if you lost power though,but be chilly.

Making love on a water bed is quite different as the height is lower and you can't do some positions very well. A guy can't stand and have his wife lay down in any position very well. So if adventurous, you might want to take that into consideration.

A pillowtop is very comfortable, but expensive for many.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 66393265


Water bed used to be "the" thing for sex. I didn't like it but many people raved about it.
 Quoting: President Elect oniongrass


Water beds are great for romatic intimacy and cuddling, but terrible at certain sex positions. I will decline from getting into the details, but height is too low.

Tabletop will not work on a waterbed. No way, no how.

So if adventurous, don't get a waterbed as it sits too low.

I'm going to echo what several in this thread have already mentioned. The Purple mattress is the best mattress I've ever slept on. I tried tempurpedic (smelled like chemicals for weeks), beautyrest, other memory foam toppers (which always made me sleep hot). But I've gotten the best sleep on the Purple.

I have been exceptionally impressed with the memory foam hybrid mattress in a bag. It ships easily from Overstock.commie and when you open the bag, it expands to size. They are numerous options and sizes.

Make sure you get the depth that fits your sheets and box spring.

I have a mattress which is exactly like sleeping on air, because it is! I have an air bed with a five inch down feather mattress with a down comforter on top of that.

Best priced bed you could ever buy and I promise you, it's the best.
 Quoting: A Friend


This! Back Doctoc recommended a simple 18" airbed with a good high density top added.

That was about 6 years ago, and everything still sleeps brand new and it improved my pain.

It is unbelievable how much better it is than a mattress, most of my family did the same.

It cost between $300-$400.

Super timely thread.

I just got rid of my King Size Seally Mattress.

HAD IT FOR 14 YEARS.

It was well past time to go.

I purchased a foam mattress in a box. Probably the best "value" mattress. 12" foam with cool gel foam.

They say when you replace these or buy one of these mattresses to not use your old box springs unless the box spring is relatively new. My box spring was 14 years old so I had to get rid of that and buy a new platform (made for foam mattress) to put the bed on which was about $100.

If you put the new foam mattress on your old box springs, that will void the warranty on the mattress.

It was the Classic Brands Cool Geo Mattress.

I just bought the king size mattress on sale on October 20th for $347 from Amazon. Now it's like $480.

How's the mattress? It is on the firm side, but very nice! Super value at the price I was able to purchase it at.

We have a 100% latex mattress, so there are no springs at all. Then we have a memory foam topper. It’s like sleeping on a cloud.

Stop what you’re doing and order a Purple 3. I’ve tried it all. Memory foam, sleep number, and pillow top and NEVER found a mattress I liked for longer than a month or two. Purple 3 changed that. I’m a big guy and my wife is about half my size. We both love the bed.

Usually after a new bed, we were thinking “how long do we have before we could get a refund on this piece of junk?” I have NEVER even once considered returning this purple bed! Just wish I’d gotten one sooner.

We chose the three because it has a little thicker of a grid top than the regular one, but not too thick to feel awkward. It’s suuuuper comfortable. No more achy back when I get forced out of bed after 5-6 hours in the memory foam types. No more feeling springs and saggy supports from the cheap pillow tops. I can sleep 9-10 hours like I used to in high school and college, and I wake up stiff (which I think is normal for my age), but not achy in the back like I used to. It really is remarkable.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79636905


I am going to look into that mattress.

I need a new one, but there are so many and I am afraid of choosing the wrong one.

Sounds like people like this mattress, purple 3 huh.

TLDR; Saatva is decent but not really luxury. I went to a local Boulder place because they use all natural products and had many options from regular beds to latex beds. I know this doesn't help if you don't live here but the blog also has some other notes about my search...

I bought a hybrid memory foam/reg. mattress a couple of years ago after sleeping on the same much older mattress for 20+ years.(That one I co-habitated with my ex wife).

Am single now, but I like my legroom so am thinking about searching around on black Friday for a comfortable but firm mattress.

What do YOU sleep on? Any suggestions for what to buy these days? There is too many out there and it's confusing.

Thought I'd ask GLP.

Thanks in advance

Purple hands down, and that's coming from someone that use to have a latex mattress. Back and neck pain/stiffness is truly gone.

Wife and I slide 2 queens together, she got a purple 3 I got a purple 4, They are wonderful an are covered by a 10 year warranty. If they sag or dip they send you a new one.

I bought a queen sized solid memory foam mattress 3-4 years ago, and it is still in the box I got it in - I never opened it up!

Question: Will the memory foam still be good if I open it now and let it expand?

bluebar

Something to think about: Memory foam is made from chemicals, so there is risk of you breathing in the chemicals and it not being good for you.

What if it is NANO-GEL and it builds up in your body?

It was simple for me. I had bad back issues and couldn't sleep on the mattress I had any longer. I bought the best, highest rated water bed (king sized) for $700, frame and all, 11 years ago and don't even have back issues any longer. As for sleep? There is nothing like it! The bed literally absorbs you over time and gives complete support.

You could spend $3-4K on a new bed or $700. The choice is yours. Don't waste your money on a classic mattress. Go try them out and you'll be hooked.

As for sex. If the waterbed isn't your thing then take it to the couch, the lounge chairs in the back yard, the kitchen, the truck bed, the front yard, etc.

The full story:


 Quoting: Tennessee Patriot


This is Lee from Sleep Essentials. After watching his videos, I was sold on latex. No chemicals that will make you sick and a 20 year warranty.

The wife and I both got a twin xl for $1000 a piece and then we bought adjustable bases from Nebraska Furniture Mart. Bases and mattresses, we have about $4200 invested. But with being 51 years old, these will last me and her, the rest of our lives, most likely.

Latex has been very comfortable and I have been sleeping better than I have in my half century on this ball of dirt. I would recommend latex to anyone looking for a new bed.
