I've had mine for ten - fifteen years. Time for a new one? I wake up a little stiff and sore and in the back and the hips, though it goes away once I get moving.

Recommendations? Anyone have a Select Comfort Sleep Number mattress? What do you think of it?

We bought a new mattress set 2 months ago. We splurged and bought one of the higher end Serta Posturepedic models. I figured since we will use it almost every day for at least a decade the price is worth it. It is so comfy with a nice thick pillow top.

We've had our Select Comfort mattress about 6 months now and absolutely love it. My parents bought a Tempurpedic a few months ago and love the way it sleeps, but she said it does hold heat and that could be a big problem if you get hot at night.

We bought ours online directly from Select Comfort and they delivered and set it up in no time at all, and then took our old mattresses away. I would highly recommend it.

Beachcomber, thanks for the recommendation. Happy to hear it. Actually there's a SC Sleep Number store in a nearby shopping center. Have tested it. Liked it. But wanted to hear what others have to say. As I said, I often do wake up with stiff / aching back and hips. Have to dig into old paperwork and find out just how old my current mattress is. It is a "no-name" brand.

My sister just ordered one of the Heavenly Beds
They have them at Westin Hotels and they are incredible. You can order them from Westin, or they sell them at Nordstroms. She hates to get out of bed, she loves it so much.
The temperpedic beds from what I have heard is not good as said above, it holds in heat and makes you sweat. It doesn't breath.
Check out the Heavenly beds.

I have very good pillowtop mattress and then I topped that with a good featherbed from QVC. At some point I'll get a new featherbed, probably.

Best thing is to really check out what is best for you.

As for the heavenly bed, might be worth a night in one of the hotels featuring them.

I have an air mattress very similar to Select. Paid half the cost and I love it! I've had it just over a year. Since buying it, neither my hips or back have EVER hurt at night. During the day, that's a whole different story!

I agree with Sea...each person is different and what works for one person won't necessarily work for another. GOOD LUCK! :-)

My no name twin mattress was age 11 and always was too firm, then got lumpy. After not getting decent rest several years hubby wanted to buy a Sleep Number for me but I shied away from the prices. Finally decided on a feathertick, pure goose down. Sears only had king size however a folded king fits a twin so I end up with twice the thickness and 8 folding options. It's like sleeping on a cloud! My back feels better every day and I have more energy. No wonder my Granny touted a feathertick bed as "best sleep you will ever get"...
