Hello,
I need some suggestions with the diy mattress build.
Here’s some information.
We’re in SoFl.
I am 6-2 230lbs, side with 1/4 stomach sleeper.
My SO is 5-5 140lbs side sleeper and rarely back sleeper.
The bed is platform with slats, Ikea Nordli King
We had Beautyrest Recharge World Class Phillipsburg II Extra Firm for 6 years.
We both liked the mattress but we had to dump it recently.
What we did not like about the mattress was:
- over time, it developed indents from our bodies; rotating did not help much
- it was kind of warmish
We also had experience with the following mattresses recently.
Sealy Bed in the Box, 8in Firm
- my SO likes it
- I think it is too hard to sleep on the side, my shoulders hurt after 20 minutes
Sealy Bed in the Box, 12in Medium Hybrid, it was free.
- we both do not like it because it is too soft
- we feel like we roll to the center
- it is very hot
- there’s barely any support
- we feel when either of us gets up/lies down.
With the above information in mind, what would you suggest?
I was considering the following:
- 1in firm hd foam
- 8in combizone coils
- either 3in firm talalay or
- 2in firm dunlop and 2in firm talalay or 2in medium talalay.
Thank you in advance for all suggestions.
