    Thank you so much for sharing this review. There is a maze of marketing sales buff to get through when trying to select a new mattress. The issue of sitting in bed is something I do a lot to chill-out watch TV etc and the dip issue where your butt is placed is something that also causes me pain if there is too much compression and indentation to the mattress. Thank you again

    I have the Simba Lux and it’s absolutely brilliant. Medium firm but very comfortable. I have noticed I hardly move during the night. Happy to be in the same place. I sleep better and wake very refreshed. I actually look forward to going to bed at night. The Simba lux that I have is a double, but I had a single Simba Pro but, it was too firm and too small. Double lux all the way for me with a 200 day trial period and a 10 year warranty.😊

    Definitely i go for the Octaspring because of the memory foam. i have an old cheap $200 metal springs mattress i had it for 12 year now. I sit a lot on my bed with my computer and watching tv for hours. I have to turn on my sides every 5 minutes because i get hip pain and all my back and neck get stiff. Now I'm going to buy the Octaspring and I can't wait to get it. Thank you for your honest review Ash. But i would like to know please the difference between the Dormeo Scirocco, and the Octasmart®Deluxe Mattress which cost in Australia, $609.00 Regular price$1,199.00. I don't want to buy the wrong one. $609.00 still a lot of money but it's worth it. Because the bed is the ultimate resting place to recover from every type fatigue or illness. Not to mention the other pleasures too that you can enjoy in bed . 🤣😂

    Hi we have loved watching your reviews on the simba mattresses….how are the simba pillows holding up? We are thinking of buying them but keep seeing bad reviews. Would love to hear if the Dormeo mattress is still going ok. We are undecided on what to go for, we were planning on getting the simba luxe but keep reading bad reviews.

      Thanks. Simba Pillows are great. Ive added more of the cubes inside as they starting to lose some of their structure, but I have plenty left still to refill it, so no issue there.
      Dormeo mattress is great. Definitely the right choice for us. Depends on your preference though for firmness. We prefer a soft to Medium. But its not stupid soft. its hard to explain. Its firm soft. I know that doesn't make sense :-)

    Bought a Dormeo last year - never got to use it as it was defective and didn’t expand or unroll. Their customer service was appalling - told me it would take 14 business days to review the images I submitted to them. It wasn’t until I was blunt with them on the phone they managed to review it within the hour. Then took ten days to collect it. Think I dodged a bullet.

      Most companies donate the mattresses that are returned by buyers who were not satisfied nor pleased with their purchase to different charities like the salvation army good-will and others this way in the very end the mattress companies get a sweet deal a government subsidized tax write off it's 🆗 its the entrepreneur capitalist american way of doing business. So in reality the mattress companies never lose no kind of money cha-ching 🤑💵 💰. See here folks they don't make as much profit 💰 when they donate to charity but they don't lose no cash 💵 either. I might add folks that all memory foam consist of the same chemistry same substance the only thing is that these different competing mattress companies with many different names too many boot that is too many to count. Well they just simply put on a different competing face, spin, twist, concept, idea, on their own particular brand of memory foam mattresses and products and how they differ and perform against the competition which is also fierce who i might add are also marketing the same identical memory foam products and its chemistry. Folks 99% of the time maybe even 100%, it's all a big gimmick with a dramatic sales pitch and twist just to make the sale. Folks in the very end memory foam will always be memory foam only with a different twist. And folks that is all she wrote. Fool me once fool me twice we get it. Folks they might be able to change minds 🧠 and hearts along the way with their new ideas and different twist but they can not certainly change the go- to factor the chemistry to the hot and quick sand like sinking outdated antiquated memory foam feeling Folks nothing personal i have tried all kinds of sinking memory foam and i hated them all. i 👁️ for one have learned my lesson and i might add it has been a costly one along the way. So i finaly went 100% latex that's the real McCoy the real deal folks no sinking quick sand memory feeling here hellooo...😜☮️✌️
