I need some help and recommendations on firm orthopedic mattress that will not sink after usage. I have been using coir mattresses from kurlon but the mattress sinked at the center after around 2years of usage. Need reviews and suggestions of what i can get.

This is my first Reddit post, so hello everyone 👋🙂

I recently moved to Bangalore after getting married, and we’re setting up our first home together. One thing we’re surprisingly confused about is choosing a good mattress 😅

There are so many brands, materials, and “orthopedic” claims online that it’s getting hard to figure out what actually matters in real-life use.

We’d really appreciate suggestions from people who’ve personally used mattresses in Indian/Bangalore conditions for a few years.

What we’re looking for:
-> A good mattress for a couple (average weight)

-> Medium comfort level - not too soft, not too hard

-> Good support without that “sinking in” feeling

-> Should hold shape well and not sag easily after some years

-> Comfortable for daily long-term use

-> We don’t have any back issues currently

A few things we’re confused about:
Which brands are actually reliable? (Wakefit, Flo, Sleepycat, Duroflex, Kurlon, etc.)

1. Is 7–8 inch thickness enough, or is 10–12 inch worth it?

2. Which material/model - what has worked best long term?

Budget is mid-range — ideally around ₹17k, but open to spending a bit more if the durability and comfort are genuinely worth it.

Would love to hear:
- Which mattress you bought

- How long you’ve been using it

- Whether it started sagging or became too soft over time

- Any brands/models you’d avoid as well

Thanks a lot in advance 🙌

Looking for mattresses with decent back support for 2 people in late 20s-early 30s. I am WFH . Both of us are side/back sleepers. Also, we would like the mattress to provide that cooling comfort as our current mattress gets hot too soon. We stay in Bhubaneswar. Budget under 15k.

Hi peeps!!

Me and my wife are both 100kg+ and work in a very sedentary IT role. Most of the day is spent sitting in front of a Computer. Have been using the traditional Cotton Mattress for the last 6years of our married life. Want to upgrade to something that is more comfortable now. Also, the cotton mattress has sagged in the middle and both of our body impressions are very clearly seen. This has been causing a few body pain and back pain issues now.

Please suggest a good long life mattress that will not sag. Have experienced Sleepy Cat Ultima Natural Latex-8inch, Hybrid Latex-8inch, and Sleep Company Smart Ortho Pro-8 inch.

We are preferably going to opt for 10 inch. Will the thickness matter and what other good options are available.

I am looking for a latex mattress, medium firm to firm around 20-30k

I am from a village, so I can't check them in person and I need it in a short notice

I am looking to get one for my mom, who can't stand memory foam so I am looking to get a solid latex mattress

I am from TN if that helps

Hi! Looking for recommendations for a medium-firm but comfortable mattress in Mumbai.

I keep seeing a lot of love for Sunday mattresses here, but since they don’t have a store in Bombay, I’m not too comfortable buying without trying it first.

My husband is quite tall and has been dealing with severe lower back pain, which we suspect might be because of our current mattress. So support is a big priority.

I honestly have zero knowledge about mattresses—materials, firmness, what works for back pain, etc.—so any guidance (brands, types, or even what to look for while testing in-store) would really help.

I used to think higher thread count automatically meant better bedsheets, but now I’m not so sure.

Some high thread count sheets I have tried felt softer, but also warmer and less breathable at night.

So now I’m confused about what thread count changes actually.

• Does thread count affect temperature too, or mainly softness?
• Can a higher thread count make sheets feel hotter?
• What matters more for cooler sleep?

- INR 30.5K on Amazon, 33.6K with trial on their site

- 2 inches of Latex (82 D) + 2 inch Advanced High Resilience Support Layer + Luxury Grade Foam Base

- Not sure what those layers underneath latex are. They don't mention density as well.

https://www.sundayrest.com/products/sunday-ortho-plus-mattress

- INR 31K

- 2 inches of Latex (75 D) + 1 inch of Memory foam (55 D) + 5 inches of HR foam (32 D)

- I didn't find other latex hybrid alternatives with >= 2 in latex.

- I am considering hybrid latex mattress with min. 2 inch latex layer. As what I read till now that less than 2 inch of latex doesn't give all the benefits of latex.

- Sinking: I'm 85kg, wife 60kg. What are the chances of Sunday mattress getting sinked due to my weight since it has 1 inch memony foam? Also base foam layer is 32D, what I read is 40+D helps prevent sagging in long term.

My priorities are cooling, firm / medium firm and durability.

I also considered Wakefit ShapeSense Infiniti as I'm using their old orthopedic mattress since 2018. But this new one is bit on softer side and latex version might help in cooling better is what I thought.

Thank you!

Can anyone who has been using the Sleepycat ultima tell me if it's worth buying? I've been using the Wakefit Xpertgrid for the last one month and I'm not too pleased with it. It's a little more firm than I hoped and was planning to make a change.

Hello everyone. I came across the Loom and Needle mattress company. Is it worth buying it???

If anyone is using it please give your honest review on this.

Thank you

Actually I'm looking for a mattresses. There are multiple options in my budget. I see lot of positive reviews on grid mattress & airboost mattress. My main preferences are less heat while sleeping & posture maintain. Both mattresses are offering the same & meeting my expectations. Since duroflex is well known brand here, i'm thinking of choosing it. Before buying, i just want to know the experiences of the users who are using it now & let me know if it worth buying options.

Need mattress recommendation for single bed in India (budget 8-10k, prefer under 9k). Solo sleeper (male, weight 78 kgs approx), medium-firm preferred (not too soft, okay firm), cold sleeper . Single size (78x36inch) I am 6.2 ft so😅

Any real experiences with Wakefit , SleepyCat, Flo mattress or similar companies? How's the durability, sagging, and cooling after 1-2 years? Any other brand Suggestions welcome!Planning to use a dust-mite protector + regular cleaning. Any advice is appreciated!

Thanks!🙏🏾🙏🏾

I ordered a bed from Wakefit expecting a basic level of service, but the installation experience has been extremely frustrating.

It’s been over 10+ days since delivery, which was already a week late. and despite raising 5 separate complaints, there has been no proper resolution or confirmed installation timeline. Every time I follow up, I get vague responses or assurances that someone will come “soon,” but nothing actually happens.

Meanwhile, the bed has just been lying in my room, making it difficult to even use the space properly. I’ve had to adjust my sleeping arrangement around it, which is honestly ridiculous considering I’ve already paid for the product and installation.

At this point, I’ve decided to assemble the bed myself / hire a local carpenter because waiting further doesn’t seem practical.

Just wanted to share my experience:

Has anyone else faced similar delays with Wakefit installation?

Were you able to get reimbursement if you hired a carpenter yourself?

Would appreciate any suggestions on how to escalate this or get a proper resolution.

I have been trying to find bedsheets that actually stay cool through the night because I sleep pretty hot.

The problem is, every time I search, I see Tencel, bamboo, and eucalyptus Bedsheets, and they all claim the same things: cooling, breathable, soft. But when I read reviews, people say mixed things.

I don’t want to end up buying something that feels good at first but still traps heat after a few hours.

• Are these materials actually different in how they feel and perform?
• Which one actually works better for hot sleepers in real use?
• Or do they all perform pretty much the same?

I’m honestly at my wits’ end and posting here to sanity check if it’s just me or if Wakefit quality has gone downhill.

I’ve been a Wakefit customer for the last ~8 years. My old Wakefit orthopedic mattress has been absolutely solid all this time – no drama, no sagging, no back pain. I’ve recommended Wakefit to literally everyone in my circle and quite a few people bought because of my referrals.

Recently I decided to upgrade and bought a Wakefit Shape Sense Orthopedic (10 inch) mattress, assuming it would be the same (or better) experience.

Instead, it’s been a nightmare.

• As soon as I lie down on the new mattress, my back starts hurting within minutes.
• If I switch back and sleep on my old 8‑year‑old Wakefit orthopedic mattress, I’m totally fine – no back pain, I sleep like a baby.
• The difference is so drastic that it’s almost comical. Old one = flawless. New one = instant pain.

At this point I honestly feel like either:

• They’ve changed the materials / firmness / construction in the newer Shape Sense lineup in a bad way, or
• There’s a defective batch / quality issue with the one I received.

I haven’t had this kind of back pain in years and it started literally the day I switched to this new mattress. It’s not “adjustment discomfort” – it’s straight up unbearable.

I wanted to put this out here to:

1. Ask other Wakefit users –
   • Has anyone else faced back pain specifically with the Shape Sense Orthopedic (10 inch)?
   • Did you notice a quality drop compared to their older orthopedic mattresses?
   • Tag the Wakefit team publicly so they can’t just brush this aside.

Wakefit team, if you’re reading this:

I’ve been a loyal customer for 8+ years and have actively promoted your brand to friends and family. The old mattress I bought from you is still working beautifully, which is why I trusted you again without overthinking.

This new Shape Sense Orthopedic mattress is causing severe back pain almost immediately when I lie down, while your older mattress from 8 years ago is perfectly comfortable for me. That clearly points to either a product defect or a change in quality / design on your side, not just “personal preference.”

I’m not asking for anything unreasonable – I just want:

• A proper inspection of this unit,
• An honest answer on whether there has been a change in materials / specs vs your older orthopedic mattresses

If you genuinely care about long‑term customers and your “orthopedic” branding, this is exactly the kind of case you should be taking seriously.

Happy to share:

• Order details,
• Photos / videos,
• Any info you need to actually debug this instead of closing the ticket.
