In the showroom, I laid on the Tempers for 20 min. or so. Felt good, but then online I read where people with herniated discs can't stand them so for now I've stayed away. I like firm, but then on my side I need something to take in my shoulder. I'm kind of wide in the shoulders.
So, I'm thinking a nice firm base with lots of support with a 6 inch topper.
No Temper. Kind of thinking its not in my best interest.
