Hi Pete,
You recently helped us pick out a mattress for our 3 year old.
We purchased a Stearns and Foster Estate Collection Eureka Springs Luxury Firm mattress, some years ago.
I have various lower back injuries, including spondy.
My wife suffers from neck and hip pain sleeping on this mattress.
Neither of us sleep well on the mattress and are frustrated with it having had body indentation since day 1.
We are both side sleepers and are average/below average in size. (5'10" 160 lbs and 5'5" 115lbs).
We both use pillows between legs to minimize our pain while sleeping.
We would prefer not to purchase an entirely new mattress if we can avoid it.
Instead, we are considering purchasing a 2" Talalay Latex Topper, and one of your the latex pillows.
Do you think that might solve some of our current sleeping issues?
Or, do we need to cut our losses and move forward with the purchase of a new mattress?
Any guidance you can offer will help and is greatly appreciated.
Thank you and take care, Bernie
Hi Bernie,
The Eureka Springs was one of S&F models, topped with memory foam.
It was the memory foam in that mattress that is the reason why you've been unhappy with it all along.
A body impression from day 1, tells me you got a comfort exchange return.
As illegal as it is, to sell a used mattress as new, it happens all the time.
Even using a S&F model with no memory foam, we recommended using a latex topper with it.
The latex topper extend the life of the mattress and add long lasting comfort.
The time to add the topper would have been when it was new.
If getting a new mattress, adding a latex topper provides long term value.
That being said, it makes sense to get the topper first, in hopes that it works with your mattress.
When the topper arrives, flip the mattress over and add the latex topper.
Despite being made one-sided, the underside is usable, but too firm.
This trick has been successful many times, over the years.
This will improve the support your spine will be getting, as well as providing comfort.
This is not a lost purchase, since you'll use the topper on the new mattress.
The topper to get is the Pure Bliss 3" Plush Talalay Latex Topper, shown here:
Shipping is free and there's no sales tax.
VERY IMPORTANT:
Keeping your mattress clean and dry will increase longevity.
Use our Organic Cotton Waterproof Mattress Protector.
Thanks, Pete
