Admittedly, my wife and I were somewhat hesitant to buy a mattress online without trying it out first. The more reviews we read, the more convinced we were that the Tempur-Pedic was exactly what were looking for. We are happy to share that the Tempur-Pedic has exceeded our expectations. We no longer wake up tired. It is so refreshing when first going to bed and sleeping the night through is the rule, as opposed to the exception. Our only regret is that we didn't buy a Tempur-Pedic sooner.
I purchased the Tempur-Pedic LuxeAdapt firm. I do like it and sleep pretty good. The mattress is quite a bit firmer than I expected. I thought the top was going to be similar to having a pillow top but it isn't. Very firm.
First of all, I'm a side sleeper and with my 2 years old memory foam mattress from another manufacturer. In the morning, my shoulders always hurt but after sleeping on my new Tempur-Pedic mattress, I can honestly say that my shoulders pain has vanished. It was the best investment I have ever made!!
I purchased this mattress almost 4 months ago. I wanted to sleep on it several months before posting a review, as I think it is more helpful to others when reading reviews before a purchase. While this is a VERY comfortable mattress, it is supposed to be cooling all night, and I did purchase the cooling mattress cover, it definitely does not keep you cool. I've woken up many times per night, for many nights, hotter than Hades. I literally have to move to a whole other spot in the bed, luckily I got a king size! I've tried thinner blankets hoping that was part of the problem, but it is not the blankets, it's the mattress or cover holding the heat. It does not happen every night, fortunately, but it does happen quite often. My husband says he's noticed it also, but not as much as I do, he could sleep through a tornado. It is very comfortable though. I'm sure I'll enjoy it in the winter months.
This bed is wonderful! My husband and I sleep so much better and wake up without the usual sore joints that we experienced with our previous mattress. I love that we can roll over, get in and out of bed and not disturb each other. This was a big purchase for us, but I'm so glad we made the decision to do it!
I am not sure if there's an adjustment period but our backs been hurting more since using it and also, you can't sit on it despite being "firm." You will sink and have to counterbalance to even stay upright lending to more back pain. My Daughters play mat that's on the floor feels more comfortable than the bed. The smell also took 7-10 days to dissipate with 3 fans blowing at it and 2 air filters
