Morning. Wondering best type of mattress to relieve aches and get a sleep. Did use sprung ortho with memory foam. Now I am trying a tempur cloud for 100 nights but not too sure because of price

Hi

I’ve been using the tempur cloud for 2 years and I can honestly say it is well worth the money.😊

Hi I know what you mean by going crazy but like you the price did put me off at first but at the end of the day it did make a lot of different for me as I also have a few more health issues. How’s it working out for you? Hope you are sleeping better 😊

we do get this request quite regularly and the answer is like most things it depends. You can search for past conversations and suggestions. Often memory foam will be suggested but there are people that cannot stand it for comfort or heat.

So a trial from one of the online sellers or going down to the local shop and trying them out may be best.

For me, I can only lie on something super soft. I have the softest memory foam mattress and then on top of that an enormously thick extra layer of memory foam...

When I go anywhere I have to take a blow up air mattress!!

A lot of people here need soft as possible but different things suit diff people..

Best of luck

Stick with the Tempur, I know they are pricey but so worth it. I find mine such a relief to sleep on, it just eases the pains as it softens the pressure on the body.

Hypnia mattress (memory foam) plus a cotton topper, about £230. Wouldn't consider anything else ever again.

I bought anew airgel mattress a few years ago. Cost a bomb but it definitely helps me. It's so comfy and doesn't make you hot like memory foam. Also you don't get that indentation after a few months of use

Hi, I have a temper cloud mattress and I luv it, I still have uncomfortable nights but if we go on holiday I always look forward to my first night back in my own bed! They are a bit expensive but for me it is worth it. The only slight downside is that the mattress does seem to generate heat, lovely in the winter but maybe not so during the summer. Take care.

Thanks for that. I am beginning to find it comfortable compared to others x
