Oops! We did it again...

We did it again. Can you believe this?

As you may recall, we had to purchase a new mattress back in October.  Yes, just last year. The first one we went with didn’t work, so it was returned and we paid to upgrade to the best option Mattress Warehouse on the hill had to offer. Well, not even a year later and we’re having the same damn problems.

It started on The Thinker’s side, so we rotated believing that would alleviate the problem. After a few nights it was so bad I couldn’t sleep on it. And to top it off, my side was breaking down too. We have raked our brains trying to figure out what went wrong.

When we purchased the last one in October, we also got a new platform bed and tossed the old metal frame. We’re now using a platform bed without the box springs. Maybe we really need a mattress style that can be flipped. Although, there’s just so much uncertainty because a mattress should last for at least 10 years, right?

And I know you’re going to say it’s the extracurricular activities in the bedroom. We thought of that, but trust me it really does slow down after marriage. But we’ll save that for another time. Anyways, do you have recommendations as to the next mattress we purchase? I’d also love to hear your theories as to why we’re wearing them out so quickly.
