Need Help and Advice choosing a mattress for large people!!

Hello! 
My boyfriend and I are looking to buy a new mattress set. We are looking for a queen size. I am 5'7" 210bs. He is 6'2" 210 lbs. We work opposite shifts. I work during the day and he works at night. The mattress we are currently sleeping on is at least 15 years old. :( I wake up with hip and knee pain. He isn't suffering from any aches and pains, but occasionally wakes up stiff and sore. We sleep in the middle of our bed, literally next to each other anytime we are sleeping at the same time. He is a very hot sleeper and I am always cold.
We went to a Slumerland Outlet store this past weekend. We both think we want a firmer mattress. Not super firm and not super soft. We are unsure about memory foam in the mattress. We tried several mattress while we were at the store and the ones that stood out to us were the Sealy Slumbercrest 6000 Plush and Cushion Firm. We also liked the 4000 series of the same name. The Sealy Posturepedic Trust cushion firm. Can you reccommend a mattress for our situation? Are the ones I listed good choices for us?? Any help you can offer or advice you can give will be greatly appreciated!!!

Hi Erin,
There isn't a Sealy made that will hold you for very long.
You will need a stronger mattress for support. Add a 2" layer of soft latex to comfort your hip.
Here are links to the best mattress for you and to the latex toppers.
