I am posting this link not because it is an informative article, but because it is so UNinformative, AND wrong. In fact this is one of the MOST USELESS articles I've ever seen on mattresses. Check it out (it's short!):

They're still going with the "it'll last 8 - 10 years" myth. Yeah, right... I always felt CR was very spotty in their info. They never seem to do a good job of covering ALL the major brands when they do a review and I always wondered if there might be some kind of politics or payola involved as to why some manufacturers who have great products don't get included in their reviews. This article is exactly why I take everything they say with a grain of salt. Yet, admittedly, I do occasionally go to them for their opinions anyway.
