Sealy Risbury Tight Top Firm. It’s a traditional type imnerspring reminiscent of mattresses from 20-30 years ago. It has more of a medium firm bouncy feel. I use a plush 1.5 inch latex topper with it. It’s helped my back pain and I sleep much better. YMMV.
I got a basic firm sealy (or serta?) spring mattress and use with a latex topper. I’ve been following this sub for a while and think this is the best advice. Basically build your own bed on top of a firm foundation. I’d rather throw away $200-$300 on the wrong latex topper than $3000-$4000 on the wrong mattress.
Definitely NOT memory foam. I bought a TempurPedic mattress, and never had worse hip and lower back pain than after sleeping on that. It's now in my guest bedroom, and I sleep comfortably on a nice firm traditional mattress made by Sealy.
Have the helix elite sunset for 3 months and very happy, had a sealy luxury firm before so I thought I wanted a firmer mattress, turns out there is no industry standard for firmness and the soft was what I found the most comfortable. Really happy with my decision, also love the fact you can unzip and replace the foam layer if you aren’t satisfied with the firmness instead of having to replace the whole mattress. Hope this is helpful
I have a Sealy tight top (not sure which model) which I'm pretty happy with. I decided to avoid getting a pillow top, since I could create one myself later if I need one by adding a mattress topper.
Same. Also bought a full sized firm Sealy innerspring and box spring, delivered along with my Novaform. The Sealy has also held up really well.
I bought the firmest full size available at Sam's, think it's a Sealy. Added a topper and it has been great.
