Hello Pete,
I’m looking for a mattress that is like the old ones when I was a kid that you can flip.
I have been buying a new one every year for the past couple of years.
I’m 63 yo woman, weighing close to 400 lbs., with really bad back pain.
I want one that is firm but not like a rock.
What do you suggest.
Thank you, Theresa
Good Morning Theresa,
There are a few 2 sided mattresses available, but none that will support a woman your size for very long.
We have outfitted many large people, with my heaviest customer topping more than 500 lbs.
My recommendation comes in two parts.
1) A mattress strong enough to support your weight.
2) A soft latex topper to provide you surface comfort.
The latex will absorb some of your body weight, which saves the mattress.
As the years go by, you’ll have to replace the topper from time to time…but the mattress will last you for many years.
Here’s a link to the recommended mattress:
The Natura of Canada Greenspring Firm Mattress
Here is a link to the recommended latex topper:
The Suite Sleep 2” Medium Soft Organic Latex Topper

Delivery is FREE and there’s NO Sales Tax.
Thanks, Pete
VERY IMPORTANT:
Keeping your mattress clean and dry will increase its longevity.
We recommend our Organic Cotton Waterproof Mattress Protector.
