My husband and I are both side sleepers and have broad shoulders so a mattress that supports while letting you sink in enough to keep your spine aligned is difficult. After trying lots of lesser memory foam beds we finally shelled out the cash for a Tempur Pedic. Totally worth it. We are sleeping so much better and our bodies feel great. The soft is very soft but still feels supportive, even for my husband who is 6'4/240lbs. I'm 5'6/140lbs and it's perfect for me, too. Doesn't sleep as warm as other memory foam. Cover is very nice. The only thing my husband doesn't like is that the edge is soft and he can't sit on it to put on his socks. I don't have that trouble.
