hello im new to the forum and need some advice, after reading all about your experience you guys and gals seem to know your stuff sandman seems like i could use you as a mattress investor specialist' im 45 170 pounds have nerve damage and nerothapy in my ribs and back, im a slide sleeper but i toss and turn all night because of the pain. my wife is 33 and 130 pounds she is a side sleeper (even though ever time i wake up she is on her back). lol we made a big mistake and purchased a bed through OMI its all latex it has a 10 inch base 6 " being extra firm 4 inches being medium. dont know the ild. :( and then we purchased a 3 1/2 inch 22ild to put on top because the firstt mattress was to hard for my wife and i. i know i know should have bought a flobed or sleepez, but here is the problem we are now to broke to due anything. we tried a 2" 14 but that was way to soft and now we are returning it. the 3 1/2 inch is almost right but it hurts my shoulders and my wife wakes up with headaches and her back hurts lower and upper, i awake with my middle back hurting and my neck. so we are thinking to buy a 1" 19 and a 1" 28 or so to try to have some options and we wanted to know what you guys thought? is 1" going to make a difference. we found a company that we can purchase 1" 2" 3" any ild and return it if its not right .. for a small fee.. so for we have spent over 4000. the bed is on a slat foundation and the size is a queen. hoping someone can guide us in making a better decision then we have so far. cant believe the caveman slep on a rock and we cant sleep after spending 4 grand. :(
thanks aaron |
we did order the 1 inch memory foam form overstock but they sent us the wrong stuff it was just a piece of flimsly faom not worth putting on the bed to even try it. so we sent it back. last night we put both the 21 and the 19 under the 2 inch 4lb memory foam and it was the best night we have had since all this started but my wife still woke up with mid back pain and i was still a little soft it the hip area so tonight we are putting the 21 on top of the 19 then the 2 inch 4lb memory foam. we are convinced that we need something a little denser than 4 lb so we oredered the 5.34 so we can compare thankfully we have the option of returning either the 4lb or the 5 lb if one of the other does not work. both have a 90 day free trial period so that is good because our storage unit is starting to get full. we are selling the 3 1/2 22ild queen size so if anybody would like it we will let it go for around 200 we also have the 2 inch 14ild that we are prob not going to use either so we are thinking of selling that one too. hopefully we can try and help others by not buying new we only tried these on the bed for maybe 3 or 4 nights so they are in perfect condition. anyway we will prob try the 21 on top of the 19 tonight to see what that feels like and wait for the 5.34 lb before we give another update thanks for all your help sandman thanks |
