Hi Pete,
My husband and I recently invested in an adjustable bed, with two twin-xl memory foam mattresses in medium firm. I hate it and cannot return.
We have been sleeping on it about 3 months. This is our second memory foam mattress, I did not like the first one as I was always too hot, but was talked into getting another one by a salesmen, who said it had cooling gel on top to keep me from overheating, which it does, but I still seem to feel suffocated by any type of foam mattress. We bought memory foam due to buying an adjustable bed, but we find we are not really using it that much anyways.
Anyhow, we are looking to find a firm mattress as I have some lower back issues. We both seem to be side sleepers for the most part, occasionally on our back. I was wondering what coil type mattress you might recommend that is very breathable. My husband. Weighs about 210lbs, and I am 135lbs. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Amy,
There are a few types of foams. Only memory foam produces that hot, suffocating sensation.
To prove that to you, flip your mattresses over.
The memory foam is only on the top.
The flip side is firm, high density polyurethane foam, which does not sleep hot and you won’t feel suffocated by it.
My recommendation for a coiled mattress is the PlushBeds Luxury Bliss.
Medium for you…Medium Firm for your husband.
The individually pocketed coils provide firm contouring support with the pushback against your spine to maintain proper spinal alignment.
THIS is what will relieve your back pain.
The upholstery is Pure, Organic and Hypoallergenic Latex Foam, which sleeps cool and has been the best upholstery material for the last 100+ years. No memory foam in this mattress.

Also recommended is a waterproof mattress protector, which prevents perspiration from seeping into the upholstery materials.
Keeping your mattress clean and dry and will enhance the longevity of your mattress and keep it odor free.
