Ok, here is a shameless promotion for a mattress company, for anyone out there in the market for a new one. I have absolutely no affiliation with the company, other than being a recent satisfied customer.
Background: I had my last queen basic interspring mattress for about 19 years. It was fine, for what it was. It was an inexpensive no frills mattress on the firm side. I had no real issues with it. I definitely got my moneys worth. But, after 19 years, I wanted something bigger and better.
So I did some internet research and decided on a bed in a box from the original pioneers of the concept, https://www.tuftandneedle.com. There's a lot of copycat products out there now to choose from.
I liked that they had only one type of mattress that should be ideal for most anyone. Their system seemed to makes sense. I was a little leery, having never really slept on an all foam mattress, but they had a good trial period guarantee. I was also leery about foam itself. It is, after all, a highly flammable petroleum product. I also had some concerns about off gassing, odors, and long term health effects.
So I found a good deal on a nice platform bed frame and purchased a King Tuft & Needle mattress. I also bought their protector and two king pillows made from the same proprietary adaptive foam. Their regular price currently for and King or Cal King is only $700. I waited til black Friday and got a one day only killer deal at 20% off, for something like $560.
I've been sleeping on it for about 2 1/2 weeks now, and I'm in love. It is soo comfortable. It is soft on top, but not too soft where you sink in. It has firm support with creating any pressure points. Sleeping in any position (I'm mostly a back sleeper, but sometimes side), I have felt no pressure points and wake up with absolutely no pain or aches. The pillows are equally nice. Granted, it is colder weather now, but I haven't experienced any uncomfortable heat. They have a proprietary adaptive foam on top that contains cooling properties. Hopefully it won't feel hot in the summer. Rolling over and changing positions is easy. You don't get trapped in one position, like I read can happen with memory foam. It does not transfer much motion either.
From the moment I first opened the package, I have not smelled any chemical off gassing odor, which is definitely good, since I have read that some people have had that issue with foam mattresses.
If you are considering a new mattress, I highly recommend https://www.tuftandneedle.com. :spam
