Latex mattresses rule! I think second is the Simmons individually-pocketed coils, and then the worst are the wire-frame-over spring mattresses.

I don't even remember how many I've had, but since we got married almost 29 years ago, we've had 3, I think. That's not counting guest rooms, which we switched between a couple of times. All but the current one were queen sized. Now we have a king. The current one is a Temperpedic that's about 5 years old. I love that mattress. Worth every dime, and it is still just like brand new.

Just rotate it and flip it every year or so....

And then the mattress is often new for you?

No... It is the same mattress... just distributes the wear patterns. That is 'Mattress 101'.

Not able to flip my mattress.... I can only rotate it. Many mattresses made now-a-days are not designed to be flipped.

This is so true^^^

We got a Serta Comfort Fit that moulds to your body, love it, can sleep real well now, soooo comfortable. I think it's called the 'Genius' model.

This non-flippable mattress fad is a scam to make people need mattresses more often. Flippables are out there. You just have to look for them.

Bed and mattress 20+ years old. Good quality pays off.

Thank you, I was almost afraid to say how old mine was. 22yrs and counting. Yes, quality pays off.
