We got Aston ultra firm for $2100 (King) back in 2017 from Forty Winks and it degraded over time & need a new mattress now largely due to the 'sinking' issue. (I'm a bit over 80kg)
We sorta agreed that if it degrades every some years, maybe it's better buy a cheap one and replace every few years. So looked into cheaper box mattress brand.
Missus talking about Sleeping Duck as all her friends and coworkers recommend it but it costs $2k so not really getting any cheaper than traditional mattress. Especially when the other king size box mattress ranging lower end of $1k during the sale while SD doesn't really put any sale on mattress itself. Other option would be Tempur ultra firm thing but throwing $5k and getting it replaced a few years later sounds like a bad idea.
We really like firm mattress largely due to the back pains coming from the job, for both of us. So not sure what's the right choice here & what's the magic people talking about keeping the same mattress for 10+ years.
Could you please shed some insights?
So far visiting a couple of direct sale places in Kilsyth is the only thing I can pick up from the forum.
Location: VIC
Edit: ended up getting a traditional mattress from Mattresses Direct To Public that someone from the ozb forum recommended.
Andrew from the shop explained exact spec different between the models and guaranteed repair service if there's anything goes wrong and upfront about the cost as well. Also provided realistic lifespan for each mattress model available.
We have an Emma mattress, its really good, no noticable sinking, im about 80kg myself
