I want to know this as well. I've been thinking about getting one. I snore a bit when on my back now that i'm old balls and I think this would help, but I'm a lunatic about my pillows so i'm hesitant to try one of these. Plus some of them are huge.

sleeping in a relatively upright position seems to mostly fix my sleep apnea symptoms.

We recently got the helix midnight luxe. It's firm. But I do think I'm waking less and don't have any aches or pains when I get up. We're happy with so far.

prudish Jessica H. REFUSES to give the Saatva a boning score. Meanwhile ALPHA Dom H. immediately gets down to business on the Helix Elite.

Also considering going back to a more traditional mattress after two memory foam ones. Just to switch it up. Gotta keep my back on its toes. Also was at a hotel awhile back and the mattress ruled. Can’t find out what kind it was though. Thought about just calling and asking them.

Those are both pretty traditional tbh. You should see if any stores by you have Aireloom and go try that

We just got a king size bed a bit ago and got a saatva. I like it. My wife really likes it because we don't usually go to bed at the same time, so when I get into bed (or when our 4yr old daughter sneaks into the bed in the middle of the night) it doesn't transfer the motion so it doesn't wake her up like the other one did. (She's a very light sleeper)

this one seems to be the closest equivalent to the helix midnight elite. is it better? it's about the same price. It's only 13" deep which seems suspicious. I need, like, the max layers of garbage. I need my razor blade to have like 19 blades in it. more is better from what I've been sold my entire life. I'll obviously trust your mattress input here over anyone else. they have it at the furniture mart which I will begrudgingly go into for the first time in a decade if you tell me it's worth doing.

If you don't want to try something in person you should just get something at Costco because they are more trustworthy than all the other stores. And I'd lean to this one from Aireloom but I think they are better than most overall:

And compare it to the saatva and helix if you can. Really out of the three you should just get the most comfortable one
