Dear Sir,
I recently found your blog and was impressed by the information in it. Also, I must admit up front that I have no confidence about picking a mattress, and it seems like an impossible mission to find one that is comfortable for both me and my wife! We both have had back trouble in the past from mattresses that were too soft, but also don't want a mattress that is like sleeping on the floor either. As background, I'm 170 lbs and she is 120. I prefer to sleep most of the time on my side (and occasionally my back), and she is also a side sleeper, but also would like to sleep on her stomach some as well. We recently went to a local mattress retailer who suggested the Simmons Black Abriana Extra Firm. While this was initially comfortable to lay on, my thinking is that it is too firm as my body began to feel numb/compressed after several minutes of laying on it. After reading some of your blog questions/answers and doing some online research of my own, I am thinking that the Simmons Black Ella Luxury Firm or the Simmons Black Ansleigh Plush Firm might be a good choice, or something from the Stearns and Foster Estate Line. However, I have done very poorly with choosing mattresses that are good for both of us in the past, and am terrified of choosing another uncomfortable mattress and being stuck with something that either makes our backs hurt because it is too soft, or is too hard and makes our limbs fall asleep (both of which we've experienced unfortunately). Do you suggest either of the two mattresses I mentioned above for us, or do you have another suggestion entirely if you think I'm way off the mark with the firmness levels of these? Thank you very much for any help you can give! - Neil
Hi Neil,
Even though we talked on the phone about this, I wanted to send you the links for the items I suggested to you...and, expound on the reasons why. The Stearns & Foster Heidi is one of the few mattresses available with no memory foam in it. Memory foam being the worst material you can buy. Besides its poor performance, it's a dangerous product. Many of the 61 chemicals used to make it, are toxic and carcinogenic. The Heidi in the luxury firm is a well made mattress, providing excellent support for your body. For surface comfort, you'll add the 2" soft latex topper. Our latex is 100% natural and chemical free. Latex is both, extraordinarily comfortable and very long lasting. Together, these two items are the best buy on the the market....providing excellent support and comfort that will last for many years. Here are the links. Delivery is free and there's no sales tax.
