I purchased this Sealy True Foam 11" mattress a couple of months ago, because of my back pain, but instead I got much worse and also my husband start having back pain! So we switch back to the old mattress (just a regulat spring firmer mattress) and we actually got a little bit better. Just recently we went back to the place we bought it to see if we could take it back ( and probably we can't because of their non-return policy) and we got to learn that we picked up the only mattress they have on the floor that does not offer back support! Same thing will be with the Tempur-pedic brand: this is what they said! So, I'm wondering, is there anybody else out there that experience this problem before? Obviously, we got it because it's "supposed to be sooooo good for your back, a better sleep.... Thanks!

Beds, mattresses and back problems? Personally I think the mattress manufactures are having a field day, stating this that and the other. Think about it, we are not clones, do not all have the same 'type' of pain from the same 'specific' problem, yet they insist on mass manufacture? Likewise mattresses have a life span so can be expensive depending on how long you have back pain and how long you live! Therefore I tend to go for a cheap medium/firm mattress but then indulge in a expensive mattress topper. That combination works well for me.
