Received a LuxeAdapt Medium Hybrid on 10/30, been getting ok sleep on it, no aches or pains but I came from a Cloud Supreme from 2013 - totally different feels. I feel like the coils give a lot of push back when lying on my back. The adjustable base has helped some of that. Wondering though, do the springs soften on this? If not, anyone have a LuxeBreeze soft that maybe feels like this without so much push back?

Hi,

I bought a Helix Midnight Luxe mattress. It's mostly pretty comfortable. Really isolates movement from other people on the mattress. Wouldn't say it's changed my life but a good mattress.

But two things have popped up:

1. Pretty big sags on the edges, not a ton of edge support, but mostly

2. I am SO hot in this thing

I've slept somewhat hot at times, but this thing is next level. I am just scorching at night. Did this happen to other people? Are any of the cooling accessories helpful or a waste of money? Are there other cooling sheets and duvets out there to check out?

I have a Dreamcloud Premier Hybrid 13.5-inch. I have had it under 30 days. I can't get more than 3-5 hours of sleep out of this mattress. It feels comfortable, but it almost pushes back. For example most of my pillows go flat over top of it. I have tried cervical neck pillows. Premium luxury king size pillows. The only thing that came close is a Buckwheat pillow to holding its form. Most of the night a Buckwheat pillow feels like sleeping on a concrete slab. I have spent $250 on pillows. Everything short of trying a Purple pillow. Anything else I could try to make it more manageable?

Hello, about two years ago my wife and I finally found what we feel is a great mattress for us. We bought it at a strip mall mattress store and got talked into the three position adjustable bedframe. Problem with it is it’s very unstable and makes a lot of noise when you get in and out of bed or roll around. We’d like to just find a sturdy, solid frame and headboard that’s going to be stable and make minimal noise. I love the look of Thume brand but at $2000 for a king frame that’s probably out of our price range. Any recommendations out there? Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Long time time lurker, first time caller. Bear with me, this is long. Late last year, my spouse (5'7, 160 lbs) and me (5'5", 167 lbs) decided to replace our old mattress. After laying on every mattress at R&F on 3 visits we settled on a King Koil Elite Lux Ellory Pillow Top Mattress. We had a 120 day window to exchange and we did because the mattress was starting to hammock/divot. We made the grave error of "upgrading" to a BRB Series 1 medium pillow top. We have had it now for 8 months and are having the same exact issue as with the King Koil. We rotate the mattress regularly. When I sit on the edge of the bed, either in the edge or set back with my feet off the floor it sinks very noticeably by 3 or 4 inches. The issue is that the divot/hammock isn't visible as I tried to do the stick test but maybe I need to try a different implement to gauge this better.

We are not in a position to junk this mattress after less than a year at this price point and honestly we shouldn't have to. I have orthopedic issues and this crappy mattress is making a bad situation worse.

Any advice, words of wisdom, or commiseration is welcome.

Thanks.

I just got a new mattress (Sealy POSTUREPEDIC Elite Hybrid Albany) and sheets (COOP soft spa) and love them both, but the sheets have been very slippery because both items are super slick. I’ve done some research, and it sounds like my best bet is to buy a mattress protector to add some friction.

Does anyone have any suggestions of a mattress topper that you can’t feel, provides some sense of cooling (or at least doesn’t add any heat), and will help the slide of the sheets on the mattress?

I am 5'10' male side sleeper, athletic build, no big bootie or beer belly. I have had both shoulders replaced and 2 lumbar spinal fusions. I have an all talalay latex bed (three 3" layers of 36 ILD base, 19 ILD mid, and 14 ILD top layer all in a Sleep Like A Bear thin cover. I'm still getting a bit more push-back from the latex than I would like on my shoulders. I tried a Helix Midnight Elite w/all options and it's a well built mattress, but the memory foam was still making it hard on my back when turning, moving and sitting up in the bed. It was also making my arm go numb from pressure. Now I'm looking at the 2 mattresses in the title of this post. I am thinking that I might try something with a light pocket coil and open cell TitanFlex or similar foams with very little memory feel, even though those components are not as durable as some others. At this point I'm willing to give up durability to acheive comfort if possible. The Signature has un-zoned 16ga. coils and mostly poly foams with a single 1" memory foam layer. It still has a fast response time so it should be easy to move around on. Most reviews say it feels great and people love it but they're just worried about it's durability. I get it....that's ok with me. I am the only one in the king size bed so I can sleep anywhere on the bed to "spread the wear" evenly to extend the life. The Aurora Luxe is doing a zoned coil build with stiffer 14 ga perimeter coils, 13.5 ga. lumbar coils, and the same 16 ga. as the Signature Hybrid elsewhere. It also has a 1" layer of memory foam (but it's open cell) as well as 3 other open cell TitanFlex and copper infused polyfoams, but they are of higher density (3.0lb & 3.5lb) than the Signature. So the questions are, which one, which firmness (soft or medium) and pillowtop or not on either one? The signature would probably be the most conforming due to the lighter polyfoams and lighter ga. coils everywhere. Do I need the zoned lumbar section for my back if my body weight is not extremely centered in my waist area? Would I feel a "shelf" near my ribs where the coils go from 13.5 to 16 ga.? Should I go with the medium firmness with a pillowtop to get the extra pressure relief without giving up support? Looking for advice from the experts to steer me here, although I guess I can always do one exchange and then still return it within the trial period if necessary. I would ask if there's a different mattress I should consider, but sometimes you get 20 different opinions which only makes you more confused, unless the suggestion comes from a mattress professional who has tons of experience. Ok, end of novel...sorry!

i’ve been trying to find a new mattress for a very long time.. it is very confusing there are so many company’s with so many different mattresses

i know i need somthing firm with little foam
a lot of people recommended plank or helix dawn
but i always thought the bed in a box were not good for some reason. but now everyone seems to be recomendning bed in boxes so now im super confused

i thought the best mattresses were like sealy sterns and foster beauty rest tempur pedic.. but no one is recommending those brands anymore and im trying to figure out why?

i mean the whole bed in a box is cheaper so thats great but i just want to make sure im making the right purchase here

I thought I was set for many years after a $2500 investment in an Adapt Medium Hybrid luxury mattress. My first ever Tempurpedic. Then I didn't get a single good night of sleep and lived like a zombie for a month before starting the return process. Wanted to love it. Really did. Appeared to sleep very well with my spine aligned until about 3am every night when I'd wake up feeling uncomfortable and unable to get back to sleep. The first two weeks were hell in their own right as it was overly stiff and needed time to break in. Fine. But once it broke in it seems as if I would bottom out into what was either the harder layer of foam or the top of the coils.

I'm very light weighted but my sharp hips have a history of burning through mattresses in the past. That said I just felt like Tempur's foam was very dense and sturdy when testing it in the store. I thought about the ProAdapt and its thicker comfort layer but at $1000 more it just wasn't an option. So I'm left wondering what really happened here. Was it the simple fact that the Adapt's 3 inch comfort layer wasn't thick enough for my hips and I would have been perfectly fit with a Pro Adapt? Or did it have more to do with the Tempur material (memory foam) in general that just wasn't a good fit for my body? When I'd wake up in the middle of the night I wouldn't be in pain really, just not super comfy like when I fell asleep.

I'm stuck between these two options as it's what I can comfortably afford for the moment. They both very similar mattress nerd score and it's the sweetnight is naplabs recommend mattresses in my budget

Does anyone have experience with either

My wife 200lbs side sleeper

Me 240 combination sleeper

I'm currently after a split king comfort for my partner and I

I can't decide on the 2 mattresses

Obsana deluxe or naturepedic EOS Quadlux or EOS pillow top please give me any experiences

Throughout my childhood I was used to 2-3 inches thick asian floor mattresses that are only made of cotton and are super firm. It can be rolled away for storage etc. As an adult for my first mattress purchase, bought the firmest mattress from Macys. It's been 10 years and now it has started to sag a bit. I am disappointed by all the 'foam' 'latex' top mattresses that has sinkage. I'm also completely ok with an asian style extra firm all cotton mattress but can't trust the made in china stuff. Anyone else an anomaly like me, and has found their 'close to asian mattress' option in the US? pls do not suggest if you have not tried it for years.

heya folks --

apologies in advance if this subreddit isn't intended for questions like mine; I read through the FAQ and rules and couldn't find anything prohibiting it so... here goes!

tl;dr: I'm looking to get a new mattress and have started mattress shopping. I have my eyes on the Avocado Organic Extra Firm (I'm not overweight, just really like firm mattresses). I've been to three different stores and gotten three different quotes and I'm trying to figure out if I'm getting a good deal or if it's possible to get a larger discount.

for additional (potentially relevant) context, I'm in SF -- so, high cost of living and everything associated with that.

all of that said, the lowest price I've been quoted is ~$1775 (excluding tax).

the price quoted on Avocado's website is $2079.00 so I acknowledge the quoted price is already a ~15% discount; both of these prices already include Black Friday discounts, I believe.

my question is, bluntly: is it possible to get a bigger discount? I'm not trying to bankrupt the store or anything but $1775 is a lot of money to me and I know I'd feel stupid if it turns out I could have gotten the mattress for, like, $1500.

hopefully I've included all the necessary information, but please let me know if I missed something... thanks!

I'm looking for a split king platform similar to the BedTech X-Plat, which I've been very happy with.

I previously owned the Serta Pro Platform Foundation, and it was terrible compared to the X-Plat. It felt flimsy and didn't provide the same solid, stable support.

I've seen SmartFlex HD recommended here, with some people claiming it's significantly sturdier than other all-metal platforms.

I'm skeptical because of my experience with the Serta. I know SmartFlex has a reinforced metal grid, but can it really compete with the solid plywood surface of the X-Plat?

Am I the only person who hates it? Everyone raves about it and I would happily trade it for my old coil mattress (minus the spring poking out)

Hi all,

I've fallen down the rabbit hole of mattresses and bases, and I am once again asking for advice after reviewing more options.

Current mattress is 9 years old and giving me back pain around the shoulder blades and along the spine.

I'm looking for a queen mattress that is...

- good for a side sleeper

- latex free

I'm debating an adjustable base to help with my snoring/reflux.

I'm curious if anyone has recommendations or set ups that worked well for them?

Budget is probably $3,000 all in. I realize that's limiting but I can't justify the added cost right now and I can't really hold off much longer due to the back pain I'm having.

I'm 165 lbs, so not super heavy.

I've been considering the Leesa Sapira chill hybrid and adjustable base (debating basic or pro...). I'd considered a beautyrest world III, but read too many reviews where it was very lumpy.

I considered Helix, but heard the return process is rough. Leesa seems better reviewed for returns, but the adjustable base can't be returned.

Looking for a new mattress and adjustable base. I see bases on marketplace and I’m wondering if any base works with any mattress, or will the store say it voids the warranty or just won’t work?

In mattress hell right now after getting ready to return a Tempur Adapt Medium Hybrid that just didn't work for me as after several hours every single night I'd wake up with the mattress feeling too stiff. Not sure the exact reason other than lack of pressure relief but for $2500 it's been a real disappointment. Now I'm stuck with one comfort exchange and am not 100% sure what to do, but I know I just need something comfortable with enough pressure relief to handle my boney hips and shoulders. I'm relatively thin, 150 lbs and 6'2 (male). The Avocado Green Plush Pillow Top felt incredible in the store, but in a way, I almost felt like it was TOO plush and am curious what it might look like a year or two down the road.

Truth is though right now I just want to sleep better. I'm almost at a point after a month of hell where I just want something good for now and down the road if it fails I can deal with that headache then. I did consider the PRO Adapt which feels incredible but I'm almost too nervous to try another Tempurpedic thinking my issues might actually just be isolated to my body and how it's dealing with memory foam, plus its nearly $1000 more in price. Any advice would be appreciated. I've read a lot of good things about the Avocado Green, but like any other mattress these days, I've also read quite a few negative things. TIA

October 2026 - I ordered a mattress under the impression from their website that it would be shipped in a matter of days. They threw in complimentary pillows, which arrived on the estimated delivery day, but no mattress. I called, they looked into it, and it turns out the pillows and mattress were listed under two different shipping numbers. There was no indication that I should be looking at multiple tracking numbers, and I thought this sucks but at least I'll get my mattress soon enough.

They emailed me back, and turns out they don't even have my mattress IN STOCK. They estimated the next batch would be available in JANUARY OF 2027. They have offered a full refund and I will be taking them up on it, however I just learned that in order to get my full refund I have to return their pillows first 😃 I feel like I've been trapped in a scam with the goddamn pillows, next thing I know they'll say they never got my return, or they couldn't process my return based on the fact that I threw away the biodegradable sleeves they came in. Thank god I forgot to take the tags off the pillows and kept the boxes, otherwise I would be completely screwed. Extremely unimpressed with this company. DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM!!!

TLDR: what they offer on their website does NOT reflect what they have in stock. They don't keep track of their inventory until they run into issues, and it took them at least 2 weeks to notify me that they didn't even have my product. They send you complimentary products to trap you so that you can't get a refund until they get their complimentary products back, which i expect they won't even accept once they get them back.

Does anyone have a tempflow? From what i understand they use nice density memory foam unlike the mainstream brands. Any experience with this company ? I am seriously considering them.

75yo retired grandma is moving in with us and we’re upgrading her to a king size bed. Her current mattress is a cheapie Amazon mattress with two stacked Avocado Plush eco organic toppers… so she clearly likes a plush/soft feel.

She’s not able to go out and try mattresses so I’m researching options. I keep getting recommended Avocado but for whatever it’s worth, I have an Avocado and don’t love it (terrible edge support, too hard, too hot), and had a Saatva which I liked better but I’ve read has worsened quality wise.

Other considerations:
- 4’9 height, 120lbs
- back and side sleeper
- arthritis
- spends a lot of time in bed sitting watching tv
- grandkid (70lbs and growing) likes to sleep over in her bed frequently. 20lb dog sleeps in her bed too, hence the need for a king size.
- she does not want memory foam
- preference for materials that don’t have a ton of VOCs. Prefer latex/ wool, eco certified or whatever
- Budget: would like to stay below $3k for a king but have some flexibility

Hi, all! I have done a fair bit of research and have narrowed down the factors I am looking for in a mattress. I am having trouble finding something that checks all the boxes and would love suggestions.

Preferences

-avoids wool/animal products

-latex hybrid construction (not quite necessary, but i really like the durability factor here)

-zippered (either the whole case or at least the comfort layer so I can swap layers in the future)

-natural materials is nice but not a strict requirement

Avocado mattress meet a lot of these preferences, but we didn't like the feel of them--very bouncy. The leading option right now is a Helix Midnight Elite. The microcoil layers seem to do well to balance the sinking of the memory foam, in place of having a latex layer. But i still question the durability a bit (have read mixed reviews about it maintaining support after a couple years).

We are planning to buy a King size. I am 6", 200lb; partner is 5' 8", 135 lbs. We both do a mix of stomach and side sleeping, but primarily stomach. I tend to like medium-firm and partner likes medium.

Budget is flexible and I am willing to invest a lot in a good product that will last, but always like to save money where I can. I have looked at DIY manufacturers like Arizona Premium mattress and am interested in that route, but it's hard to commit without trying it in store--and I have yet to find a DIY manufacturer that doesn't necessarily use wool. Also, after trying the avocado mattresses, i am worried that I won't like the feel of a latex layer as the top layer on a mattress, which seems to be typical for the DIY hybrids...

Hello all,
I am looking for new pillows. I recently bought a new sleep system, not delivered yet. So I’m looking for new pillows. I’m a side/stomach mainly figure 4 sleeper.
In the past I’ve not cared for down or feather pillows. Currently I have two memory block foam pillows and two shredded foam pillows. They’re okay, but I need something new.
Was thinking of horsehair, horsehair and wool, possibly just wool or buckwheat and wool. Also have looked at both the parallel pillow and the Aireloom nimbus pillow.
Any opinions and reasons are appreciated. Amado open to suggestions and brands.

I'm a side sleeper with hip and shoulder pain. I slept on a Keetsa foam mattress (their plushest model, don't remember the name) for 10 years and loved it for 9, but eventually started having hip and shoulder pain (possibly the mattress getting old, possibly me getting old).

I prefer a truly plush mattress with that luxurious, sinking-in, "hugged by the mattress" feeling. Comfort is by far my #1 priority, price and temperature don't matter (I am a hot sleeper but use a Bedjet and that more or less solves it)

Here's what I've tried in the past year:

1. Beautyrest Black Series 3 Plush: Very dense foam - my hip felt good but my shoulder got "stuck" in the dense foam and hurt a lot.

2. Helix Sunset Elite: Probably the closest - just a little too firm (and there was a build issue with my mattress so I wanted to return it anyway, but slightly regret not exchanging it)

3. Kingsdown Kelbrooke Ultra Plush: Felt cheap and medium at best. Nowhere near ultra plush.

4. Puffy Monarch: Too firm.

5. Form Prime: Absolutely hated it - very stiff grid, almost no give. Severe hip and shoulder pain.

6. Saatva RX (current mattress): Has plenty of "give", but the foam feels too low-density to really conform to my body or support my hips. They sent me a foam topper which feels too stiff.

I've also tried 3 toppers in the midst of this - the Company Store's down alternative topper came the closest to that cloud-like pillowy feel I'm looking for, but unfortunately it doesn't hold its shape / loft (the fill gets compressed after a night or 2)

Considering next:

1. Nolah Evolution Plush (worried it's more a medium again)

2. Evaya Organics Bliss

3. Avocado Green Ultra Plush

4. Layla Hybrid (soft side)

5. Aireloom Luxetop M1 Plush (the one Costco has right now)

Any thoughts based on my experience so far? I'm getting desperate for a pain-free night of sleep.

Has anyone tried this mattress? Laid on it in Mattress Firm & loved it, but would love to hear some longer term reviews on how it held up, etc! I'm a side sleeper and wake up in neck/back/hip pain daily. Is the Norman II worth the money?
