1) Return the bed. If it's hurting your back, don't keep it!
2) Get a very firm mattress and put a soft 1" latex topper and maybe a 1" medium latex topper on it.
If you don't like it, still, then open it up and take out the lousy foam and put the latex inside instead.

I have never even heard of that mattress maker. Do some research on whatever else they offer if you have to exchange it. Can you get a refund?...

Yeah and I think you'll find that if you look at the content label on the mattress, you'll find out that there may be some latex mixed in with a healthy dose of PU foam. None of the big "S" brand companies actually makes a 100% latex mattress, either with or without springs/coils. They all have a layer of latex over a lot of PU foam, and call it a "latex" bed.
Instead, look at:

Thanks KimberlyH!!!! the only thing is that buying a mattress without trying it is something not wise.Those brands are not available here in PR but there is got to be a latex matress from another brand.Thanks for your input.

Summerhill & Bishop by Ortho?? - lilpixyd
Mar 17, 2010 8:22 PM
I just bought the Summerhill & Bishop "Pembridge" from Ortho Mattress a month ago. I'm waking everyday with major back pains and feel like there is a sink hole! It has "hand-nested coils"... I'm not sure what the even means.
I have a few days left to return this mattress for something else. Since the "Pembridge" is the lower end of this line, i was curious if anyone has the higher end "Elgin" or "Landsdowne" and are happy with it.
I don't see ANY reviews on this bed or on Ortho Mattress.
Please help if you can... Thanks!

I just had the Summerhill and Bishop Pembridge delivered to my house two days a ago. I bought the pillow top in hopes that it ease my lower back pain but seems to dissapoint. I think that the mattress was designed to be stiff. Thinking about returning the mattress but the salesman said it would cost me a 25% restocking fee. Long term I think it's worth the small fee. lilpixyd, did you buy the pillow top?...

Hi. We bought an Eastern King of this mattress, and have already called twice for them to come and exchange it. After about one month - it starts sagging. I don't plan on settling for a "restocking fee" I plan on making them upgrade the mattress - or I will be reporting them to the Better Business Bureau. We got the pillowtop and it is sagging one inch on the right side and almost 2 inches on the left. Has anyone else had this experience with the PEMBRIDGE PT MATTRESS ? thanks...

There seems to be way more choice and availability when it comes to commercial or hotel-grade double-sided mattresses (with and without pillow-top).
Look at this:

That doesn't seem to be very expensive. And yes, as I've discovered, I am looking for something called "damask" ticking or covering.
