We have had 5 memory foam mattresses in 5 years!

Hi Pete,
We have had 5 memory foam mattresses in 5 years!  
Actually, my husband is still on the memory foam. I'm currently sleeping on an air mattress on the floor. 
That's how bad my body hurts.  I've tried everything. 
I've turned the "no flip" on the hard side and added a memory foam topper .
I've added another memory foam topper on top of the "good" side of the mattress. 
After having read and reread your website, I am currently wondering whether a firm latex mattress topper over the memory foam mattress will help - or am I just wasting more money?
 
I am 66 - my husband is 75. I weigh 165 lbs. and sleep on my side. 
My husband weighs 200 lbs. and sleeps on his back.  
 
Thank you in advance for any assistance!

Hi Darlene,
Since you’ve read my blog, you must have figured out that your problem has been the memory foam all along.
No. Adding a firm latex topper to the top of a memory foam mattress will not produce the results you’re looking for.
 
Your memory foam mattress isn’t all memory foam.
The memory foam is only on the top.
The memory foam is supported by high density poly foam.
 
As a first step, buy a Suite Sleep 100% Pure All Natural 3” Soft Dunlop Latex Topper.
Shown here:
Suite Sleep LATEXTOP-2__17542.1554768346

When it arrives, flip your mattress over and add the latex topper.
Get rid of all your memory foam toppers. They’re worthless.
 
Doing this will give you firm support and a comfortable sleeping surface.
When the time comes to buy a new mattress, get a firm individually pocketed coil innerspring.
You can use that same latex topper on top of it.
 
 
Thanks, Pete

VERY IMPORTANT:
Keeping your mattress clean and dry will increase longevity.
Use our Organic Cotton Waterproof Mattress Protector.
