Ongoing Review of my Select Foam Cirrus Supreme--Just Purchased

Thank you, also, for the ongoing review.

There’s still quite a bit of time in the 90-day trial window, so I know things can still change. One last thing. Pillows might be an issue. my usual pillow from my old bed was fine for whatever position I was in. For the new mattress, the old pillow is good for when I’m on my back, but feels too thin when I’m on my side. So it’s a little annoying feeling the need to switch pillows from thin to thicker when I roll over onto my side. But that’s probably not related to my main issue, which is the softness of the mattress.

Was your old bed also memory foam? It would appear thinner pillows do better with memory foam. Since you sink into the memory foam, the pillow should not be too tall and cause undo stress on your neck and back.

You also might want to try an “adjustable” pillow like shredded latex or down. This has been something I’ve been researching for the past week as I am also a back/side sleeper. A lot of good information from forum members and resellers is here:https://forum.mattressunderground.com/t/natural-organic-vocs-pillows-and-otherwise The advantage is that you can adjust the height of the pillow throughout the night depending on how you’re sleeping.

As for softness, I am quite close in weight, age, and height and find firmness better for me. I have slept on and enjoyed a Tempurpedic Rhapsody and I originally set out to buy the equivalent from Tempflow or Select Foam and eventually decided on the Grandis from Select Foam (hopefully this extra splurging pays off). I do have (cause unknown) mild/light lower and mid back pain, though.
