Hi,
I am a (mostly) back sleeper, and sometimes side sleeper. I am 5"11, 76kg and sometimes suffer from some lower back or neck pain. My partner is mostly a side sleeper, 5"3 and 51kg. She suffers from general back pain from time-to-time.
We had a Simba mattress which caused my partner back pain and also got way too hot for both of us.
I quite like to be cushioned by the mattress, but she quite likes a firm(ish) feel - although reading your articles this may be an error due to articles suggesting a firm mattress is best for back pain?!
We have a budget of c.£1000 and have been exhausted by looking round all the major showrooms and being recommended all kinds of rubbish like iGel, pillowtop mattresses and the like. We want something that will not be hot, be comfortable for us both (double size) in our normal sleeping positions. Please help!
