I've been waking up for the last few weeks (probably months) with a headache and back pain and finally the penny dropped and I realised my mattress is the cause. It is a full memory foam one and is over 12 years old. I like to sit up and read in bed for an hour or so before settling down to sleep and on close inspection I have noticed a defined dip on my side of the bed. Luckily, I am single so can move over to the other side which better, but not ideal.
It's so long since I have had to buy a mattress and with lockdown it has been very daunting. Every time I found one I thought would be perfect it had either a 12 week delivery wait, had a small amount of negative feedback which put me off, was made in China (I won't knowingly support the Chinese economy) or was incredibly expensive.
I think it was easier to buy my house or car than it has been finding a suitable mattress.
Does anyone have any experience of buying a mattress without trying it first?
