Posted on Fri, 29 Nov 2013
Question: Hi, Could you help me in selecting the best mattress for myself ? Until now I have been sleeping on a hand made mattress that was made by a guy in my neighborhood, it mostly has cotton and may be coir too. I never had any issues with it so far. Now I am getting married and moving to a new house, new furniture etc. My wife insists that we get Kurlon / Peps / Sleepwell etc form the market. Now these too have several options. I have heard stories about these commercial mattress causing back pain, spondylitis and other spine related issues . It's time that I know the real story. I searched the web but did not a satisfactory answer . Hoping you can help. Thanks, XXXX
