We were unsure about whether to do this particular mattress or the upgraded one. We are absolutely thrilled with this one and are having the best night's sleep we have had in many years.
The first week or so I did not like it much; I am getting used to it. The thing I most dislike about it is that it is not easy to turn over. The mattress seems to drag and stick to your body. I am feeling less hip pain when I get up and for that I am grateful.
I had a memory foam mattress before this one and it was forever being too hot. New bed is much more comfortable, doesn't get near as hot. My back, not just lower back, feels much better. Highly recommend TEMPUR-ADAPT MEDIUM.
So at first, l was kind of iffy. I thought it was hard, l mean this was when it first came out the plastic, then l laided on it and l literally felt like this was a mattress hand crafted by God. It's seemed to form around my body. I'm talking by far the mattress I've ever bought. I mean I've slept like a new born the best sleep I've gotten. I literally could go on and on. It's one of those bed where even if you aren't sleepy you'll go to sleep. My back doesn't hurt anymore and neither do my legs. I love this mattress and it hasn't even been a week.
I am mostly a side sleeper and would wake up every morning with shoulder pain. Since my wife and I purchased our temperpedic medium hybrid, the pain is no longer there when I wake up. Better sleep and better day.
We have purchased several mattresses over the last 13 years trying to find the best one for us. We have tried the popular air adjustable bed, ones with hybrid latex, ones with memory foam and even the bed with water calibrators. I wish we found Tempurpedic first. We have slept so good every night since night 1. There was no "break-in" period. We actually GET SLEEP now. No tossing and turning. No aches and pains. Just sound healthy sleep.
Coming off of an original 20 year old Tempurpedic, I was unsure about this model...it took about a week to get accustomed to the different feel, but it was absolutely the right choice. Back and side sleeper.
This mattress has made an incredible difference in my sleep. I've gone from neck, hip and shoulder pain that would interrupt my sleep-Many nights I had to get up- to sleeping through the night. I also purchased the pillows which have helped tremendously. I truly was amazed how my sleep experience has improved. It is also easy to make the bed. There is not one thing I don't like about it. Well worth spending the money.
