Husband and I both have bad backs, but apparently have grown to thrive on our 11 year old Tempurpedic, which was firm initially, but with constant use by us and two large dogs had apparently became a bit less firm. Our mistake was not going to the store to try the mattresses. When my husband finally did go he received quality advice from the sales person, thus making the decision to exchange the firm ProAdapt twin mattress for a second Medium ProAdapt. Tempurpedic was more than sympathetic and helpful. Their 90 day exchange policy is more than fair. We needed to pay an additional shipping fee, but, after agonizing for days about this finally decided the medium was the way to go. We do appreciate Tempurpedic's flexibility. Thank you, all!
When the mattress first arrived, we thought it might be too firm. But from the first night's sleep, we realized that we had made an investment in the proper choice.
We love our King ProAdapt Firm. We had a Classic Deluxe and needed to replace. We knew the new mattress would feel extremely firm at first but softens up after sleeping on it. Worth not having backaches. The ProAdapt is taller than our older model so being 5'3", I have to have a step stool to get onto the bed. Minor problem for the comfort. We also have Tempur-Pedic mattresses in our guest rooms.
This mattress is the best we've ever had. It's firm but also soft and contours to your body however provides strong support. It's the best sleep we've had in years.
We replaced a 2004 7" Tempurpedic which we are moving to our camper. How soft are we! We like to wake up refreshed wherever we are after a good night's sleep.
