can anyone who bought Tempurpedic Allura tell me how allura is compared to tempurpedic cloud supreme?

 

how will they hold up as time passes.

what is the thickness of various foams in them.

The salemen at all the stores I visited don't know what goes in their tempurpedics! and the thickness of different layers in the tempurpedics mattresses.

(Incredibly frustrated with ignorant people selling mattresses in retail stores)

The common reply was "SPACE AGE FOAM that NASA USES".

I don't know what to do.

 

(Just to recap my body statistics are:

1. weight 205 pounds

2. Side sleeping person

3. height is 6 feet 2 inches

4. low back pain due to herniated disk in low back.)

I loved the initial feel of the cloud luxe but it gave me a sore lower back in the mornings.  I decided to put a cheap egg crate foam topper on it and it really reduced my lower back pain because I think it actually made the bed firmer.  Doing this seems to defeat the purpose of the bed though (and I started getting a stiff upper back) so I'm considering trading it in for the allura since it feels more firm while still feeling soft.  The only thing I don't really like about the allura is the hard initial feel when first laying down on it, hopefully this is something you get used to.
