Avocado Mattress on a Thuma bed frame. Heaven. And really fucking expensive too.

I think it depends on how heavy you are. I am kind of long & lean not heavy and no. We have a probably 18 year old mattress and it's survived thousands of rounds of sex and nights of sleep. No mattress has caused me back pain BUT one time I did have to put a board under the mattress I had because the combination of frame (it was not a real bed frame just a space a mattress fit) and soft mattress did hurt.
But it's a purchase that will last for years, regardless. If yours is old why not get one, one that suits you perfectly? Sleep is so important to your health.
Cooling memory foam + an adjustable base is totally worth the money, but itβs also going to set you back a lot out of pocket.
The adjustable base is a game changer! Helps with my heart burn and my husband's snoring. Also, I'm sick rn, so have been watching a lot of tv in bed. Being able to adjust to more of a sitting position is awesome.
Marshall Mattress. I prefer the tight top - it sleeps cool and you can flip it. Mine is nice and firm, but they do have softer ones.
Yes.
There are three things you should drop money on:
- A TV that is like a theater
- A shower you never want to get out of
And
- A bed that holds you like the womb

I sleep fine on just a couple blankets on the floor, sure maybe i could sleep a bit better on a fancy mattress but this is essentially free and extremely convenient so i would not say that spending a bunch of money on something that takes up space permanently is worth it. I would rather improve my health in other ways.
You'll be fine now but then in a bad way later. You could get permanent back pain and nobody wants that.
No. It's all bullshit. I bought a traditional Japanese futon. My back has never felt better, posture improved. Its just technically 'harder'. Western mattresses sink and sag and fuck your back and neck up, and then you have buy a new one. They're environmentally bad, bad for your wallet, bad for your back, and they take up loads of space. Futons can be folded away easily in a cupboard. Hammocks are another potential solution.
