Does anyone own a firm mattress that hasn't dipped and sagged over time?

I got the Simba mattress with my blue light discount and it was so firm, my back stopped being in pain in the mornings - bliss!

But 6 months on, despite regularly turning it as per the instructions, it has dipped where I sleep.
I can rotate it and it's ok for 1-2 nights but then the dip returns and so has my back pain.

I can't afford a new mattress but I need to start saving for one.

Does anyone have a firm mattress that stayed firm?

Ours is an Otti, I think. Hasn’t sagged in the 5 years we’ve had it.

I had a Rem-Fit - didn't dip AT ALL - fab mattress. I have a Hypnos now and it's fairing very well too.

Could you have used the 200 night sleep guarantee to return it? A bit late now I know… 🙁

I had the same problem with my Simba mattress. Lovely for the first month or two, before I began sleeping in a hole - despite regular turning of the mattress. My back was in agony, I felt like I’d been sleeping face down in a hammock!

Now bought an igel 3000i advance from Bensons for Beds, which has 3000 full individual pocket springs with 5cm of gel as a top comfort layer. It’s the most comfortable bed ever and shows no signs of sagging. Expensive, but worth it considering we spend 1/3rd of our lives asleep!

We bought a 3000 pocket sprung Luna mattress from a company called happy beds, initially as a bit of a stop gap when we first moved but it's great! No turning, rotating and no dipping or sagging. Not very expensive and still going strong 5 years in. I think the higher the pocket spring count the firmer it will be.
