Hi Pete
I saw your reply about the Hotel Grade Sealy Posturpedic Plush Pillowtop Mattress.
My wife and I had a similar good experience at the Caesars Windsor hotel, last week.
It was a Sealy Encore, but I’m not sure if it was a pillowtop, it may have been a regular mattress only.
It was the best 3 nights of sleep we have had in years.
We are both 56 yrs. old, I’m 5 ft 6 and my wife is 5ft 5. Both weigh about 185 lbs.
I wake to aches and pains every morning but that is probably just age.
So now, we are shopping for a new bed.
Our existing bed is 23 yrs old! It is a royal mattress brand, a king size super plush flippable pocket coil and was great for many years. Our current box spring is made up of 2 twins as it is not possible to get the single king base up our staircase. I’m guessing the box spring set needs replacement too? The box spring sits on a steel frame about 6” off the ground. Total bed height is about 23” which is perfect for us.
Would you advise what is best for us?
I do have back problems and see my chiropractor every other week. We live in Ontario Canada.
We are both side sleepers but roll around a lot. I also wake frequently but suspect the bed is part of the reason. We do not mind paying for a good result but we probably can’t afford a full latex mattress.
I was hoping to stick to a budget of about $3k if at all possible.
Thanks, Mike
