My question is: currently what are the best mattress for lumbar support in the L5 S1 region for back? Between $1000-2000. I have had several different beds within the last 5 years including Simmons, Sealy, tempurpedic and i find within 6- 8 mos. typically, the middle of the bed gives in abit and it causes some pain in the lower back. I usually end up putting a sleeping bag(or folded blanket) in the middle area under the mattress for additional support. Please give me your recommendations. thanks-
You mention brands, but within each brand, there are more than 30 models. There's no mention of which models you've had. You don't mention body type or weight, precise physical ailments...or even gender.
Generally, you would start with a mattress on the firmer side...and soften the surface if necessary. Other than that, I can't be more specific...given the lack of information.
