Did a bit of searching online to determine what kind of mattress would be best suited for a big guy over 350lbs with back issues, sleep apnea and a wife of 130lbs. I decided to go with latex foam and headed for the local Shelton, CT Sleepy’s. I asked Scot the salesman to show me the latex options and he proceeded to ignore my request and steered me towards the Sleep to Live inner springs. I reminded him that I was interested in latex and he tried to dupe me into believing that the STL had latex in it. Then he tried to steer me into an adjustable bed and said it would cure my sleep apnea. Hey, pal, I may have been born at night but it wasn’t last night. I headed off to the Dr Breus aisle. After doing the taste test on them, I had him give me some prices. He was very determined to sell me the Sleep to Live and I practically had to beg him for prices on the Dr Breus. I liked the option of being able to split the mattress zones in the STL but I was intent on latex. Anyone have any luck finding latex with split zones for the wife’s preferences vs mine? Now I’m off to Google to research all of the above a bit futher…. |

3 MONTH UPDATE: So far, so good. After 3 months, still sleeping without any back pain. Kind of unheard of in this neck of the woods! Took awhile to get used to the pillows for me but the wife ditched hers after one night. Other than that, both the wife and I give a big thumbs up. Unzipped the cover and eyeballed the latex layers for any sign of depressions and found none. Only minor complaint is that a foot long stretch of stitching on top of the cover has pulled loose. More of a quilting type thing. ..... and that just about does it, don't it?
