I am a hot sleeper,
I am a hot sleeper, and so is my girlfriend. We both can (and have) sweat through sheets on a given night, and having two dogs on the topcover doesn't make it any cooler. I also have hip issues that throw off my body during the day, and can make sleep very uncomfortable, tossing and turning throughout the night.
With that said. . . . we set off to look for a new mattress, and although technically in the budget, we didn't feel the value of the *one* big name, higher dollar brand was REALLY all it was cracked up to be. So I did some research online, and found DLX.
Replaceable/upgradeable topper section, hybrid construction, cool-sleeping reviews, enough bounce for extra-curriculars, no fiberglass, well established company, made in the USA, AND less than half the price of your box-store deluxe? Then I read about how the company handles "returns" and that was the last straw for me (in a good way), and I decided to pull the trigger after we settled on the medium, though she tends to like hers more soft and i like mine more firm (or so i thought). . . .
I laid it out for the first time and hopped on, it felt like pressure was just pulled off my back. Support in all the right places. Side and back sleeping are comfortable.
She is around 5'4 and I'm 6'5 and 270lbs so there is a VERY big difference in our body masses as well. The first night we both slept very comfortably, both physically and by temperature, and it's only gotten better over the last few weeks.
Longevity is yet to be observed, but I seriously couldn't be any happier. You're punching way above your class and you're earning an amazing reputation. We can't recommend this bed enough.
