There **** expensive!
My g/f and I both suffer from bad backs, nothing horrendous, just not right. My chiropractor basically said don’t come back till you sort your bed out, as I was wasting my money if the bed undid all her treatment. So we trapsed off and spent several (boring) hours trying all the beds out we could find, pocket-sprung, memory phone layers, 100 spring.. etc, etc
The only one’s we got on and ‘just’ thought yes, that’s comfortable, was the tempurs ones.
We bought the top one in the shop (you could buy a bike for that!), waited an extremely long 2 weeks, and have slept like babies ever since. We got a 40 day, no quibble, return option too – so that did give us a small amount of piece of mind.
I get a full uninterrupted nights sleep now, and have yet to visit my chiropractor since. I’m not suggesting it will cure you back problems, but ours was amplified by our not very old ‘cheaper’ matress.
Sleeping in it’s a bit weird at first as you get in and it molds to you, then if you try to turn, you have to fight to get out of the hole you’ve created. They do spring back to shape very quickly, but that rebound bounce you used to get on sprung matresses, is just not there. I’ve not found it to be hot to sleep in, this is one of the things ppl warn you about.
We reckon that if it last the 10 years they guarantee it for, it’ll be worth the money. After all you spend more time sleeping, than any other one activity, why skimp on your bed?
