Need some mattress recommendations
01/24/2023 | Me

OK, as I've gotten older, I now realize how important sleep is and I'm not getting much of it of late.

I'm about 190lbs and sleep with a CPAP machine. I bought a Sealy mattress (queen-foam) this past summer and it was nice and firm for awhile. Now, it's like sleeping in a crevice and very uncomfortable. I like a firm mattress that holds its firmness with little or no sinkage.

Any mattress gurus out there that can give me some guidance? I have $1K to burn. I just want my sleep back as I'm miserable.

Ditto. More than your budget - but worth it.

You may not need adjustable frame.......

I would get a mattress made of natural latex like at https://spindlemattress.com/

They tend to be expensive, but you are paying for quality and not for the advertising cost behind the famous brands.

The brand I linked above is know for good prics

I ordered a Jenna mattress from Home Depot. It came in a box.

So far, it is very good, but it is up in my other house and I don’t get to sleep on it too much because most of the time when I am there I am not alone and the other person wants the room it is in. She seems to like the mattress too.

I am going to be getting at least once mattress set for that house this year, so I am glad you posted.

I’m probably going to get an adjustable full size platform.

I need a new box spring for a twin for the Jenna to go on. The one I have is 50 years old.

He is and would be a very lucky man!

Trust me. You get old, you will need the adjustable bed.

Try getting a good topper...latex might be worth it. We got a Plush Latex mattress that was great till we remodeled, and it was rolled up for 8 months...but got a latex topper, and is fine now.

And what’s up with the foot-thick mattresses anyhow? Annoying.
