And I am speaking from experience! At 69 years of age, I decided to go for the Cadillac of mattresses. Yes, there was sticker shock, but worth every penny! I have never slept so well, especially since my aches and pains increased with age. I am a side sleeper, but it was a painful position with every other mattress that I have owned. And I can now even sleep on my back for the first time ever! Not for long, mind you, but I love than I can do it even briefly. The ONLY thing I'm not crazy about is the fact that the bottom sheet often slips off during the night. This is largely because you do not use a mattress pad with tempurpedics. Customer service will recommend buying their sheets or investing in a Tempurpedic mattress cover. The latter, I'm afraid, would interfere with the cooling feature of the luxe adapt. And I'm too fussy about my sheets to try theirs.
