Will be 5 years this summer. Or actually maybe it was last summer, I lose track of time since it goes by so fast. Basically, when I moved into my house. The one before that was probably a good 10 years old or so.
Great. It is about 200 pounds for a king, it isolates you well. It was not cheap, but it is also two sided and should go 20 years or more if flipped and turned end for end, especially with the throw away topper taking the larger share of wear.We also went a little firm on our memory foam, I think 4.5 pound density.
How is heat retention and motion transfer on your latex?
What do you think? I've been meaning to buy a good mattress, and am considering splurging on one, specifically "Simmons Beautyrest Recharge World Class Phillipsburg Plush Pillowtop" for 749
Just over a year. Went with a nice firm mattress this last time around, after being on a softer, squishier one for many years and I have never slept better. I used to get a tired back all the time, but not anymore.
Also I've had multiple people sleep in my bed and though they were skeptical going in, since it was so hard, afterwards they said it was the best sleep they've had. Firm mattress is legit yo.

That was certainly the strategy behind pillow top mattresses. The place I got ours at had almost all two sided mattresses.21 years.
Might be time for a new one, but I honestly think the guideline of replacing your mattress every 5-10 years is something made up entirely by people making and/or selling mattresses. I'm pretty sure a properly rotated mattress can last much longer than that.
It's all personal preference. Since getting married in '94 the wife and I have had three mattress sets at our primary residence. The one I had when we married was old and we replaced it with a set marketed as firm. It was like sleeping on granite. We exchanged that set with another firm set and neither of us has slept well on it. It's too damned firm.Also I've had multiple people sleep in my bed and though they were skeptical going in, since it was so hard, afterwards they said it was the best sleep they've had.

my mattress is about 2 years old... usually end up replacing them every 8-10 years. hopefully keeping this one until we move into a place with the space for a king size bed (currently have a queen)
firm FTL... when I housesit for my parents I end up just sleeping on their couch because every bed is firm as hell and ends up making my back writhe in discomfort.
LOL people buying mattresses...what a waste of money and space.
What do you sleep on, pussy my little pony pillows?LOL people buying mattresses...what a waste of money and space.
