Whalen,

Matresses are a very tricky thing to buy. What may be good for one body may be awful for another . Lying on them in the store feels good but how can you judge in just a few minutes? It really takes a few nights of sleeping on one to know.

I think its best to buy at a store that will take it back and let you exchange if its too soft or too hard etc.

My other fullproof trick that has always worked for us is to use the foam eggcrate which supports all pressure points. I have taken the absolute worst mattresses and put an eggcrate on them and had a wonderful nights sleep, It works everytime!! (very inexpensive too!) Good luck!
