I have had the cheapest half and half memory foam mattress I can find for the past few years, replacing them once every 2-3 years. I have slipped discs and know that memory foam suits me well. Trouble is the mattress goes thin on one side where I sit on my bed even though I rotate it. Is it possible to payouts and find a mattress that won't do this? Tempur? Thanks
Tempur mattresses are the best but are horrendously expensive. How about a Tempur mattress cover? They are cheaper and might do the trick. My sister has one and loves it.
Have you checked out "Dormeo". My son works for them is QA Manager. Apparently they are made of different types of foam in one mattress, harder on the edges and different densities on the rest geared to where you are heaviest, have never tried them but may be worth checking them out. I do not think they cheap.
The very latest Which? report on these concludes that Tempur are NOT the best - in fact, they were 7th out of seven tested!. The best was Silentnight 3 Zone Memory Foam at a fraction of Tempur price.
Take a look at the report if you can - July 2013.
I have to agree with Ginge on this one. My OH has a tempur mattress and I *hate* it. I always wake up with back ache, which I never get with my own memory foam - which is silent night.
The only negative I can think of with mine though, is I seem to be hot every night, although I'm pretty sure that's common with all memory foams?
Ah, well there you go then, tempur doesn't make you hot like mine does. I literally have to sleep with nothing on me. (I mean duvet or sheets) as it gets unbearable, and that's in winter too!
Ah, so I'm not going mad! I changed the duvet, thinking it was that, but now I literally have to just have my pj's on and sleep with the window wide open. It's so uncomfortable!
