What is the best quality mattress available?

My wife and I recently spent $2400 on a new mattress set. It’s supposed to be a top of the line bed; a Simmons Beautyrest Black. It felt great at first, but after not much more than a week it started losing support. I’ve given it some time to make sure it wasn’t just a “breaking-in” period creating an illusion of lack of support. It’s been nearly 3 months now, and the bed is garbage. It’s softer and sagging more than the 4 year old, cheap mattress we had before. The difference is obvious. If I lay in the middle of the bed, which is practically unused, it’s still comfortable and supporting. When I start moving closer to the side where i normally sleep, the difference is VERY obvious. I am less that 180lbs and should not wear out a $2400 mattress in a matter of a few weeks.
I know there have to be better beds out there with good support that will last. Any ideas would be helpfull.

What is the best way to remove a musty smell from a mattress?

Long story, but recently or family cat became ill and died. While ill, it soiled my mattress. After trying some specialty chemical cleaners for pet stains, I decided I would make a last ditch effort to wash the mattress with clean water in my garage before resorting to trashing it….it was an expensive mattress.

After I rinsed out the mattress, I removed all the exess water with a shop vac, but the weather got really humid and it took a few days for the remaining water to dry out. In the meantime, the mattress took on a mildew/musty smell.

Is the mattress a lost cause? or is there a way to eliminate the mildew smell? It is very slight, but obviously any odor in a mattress is undesireable. For what it’s worth, the cat stain and odor is no longer present.

The mattress has been airing out in the garage with a fan for the last 6 days, and each day the odor is less…but is there a way to eliminate it?

What mattress is best to pair with the NORESUND bed frame from IKEA?

It seems like thin mattresses don’t go very well because the bed seems very low.. I don’t know which mattress to choose. And also, what is a mattress base used for?

It would be preferable if the items recommended are from IKEA.

What is the best mattress for us – foam, latex, spring?

What is the best (double) mattress for the following profile:
Couple, one weighs 10 stones the other weighs 11.5 stones,
Tend to sleep on side rather than back or belly,
Don’t want a very soft mattress but like the comfortable feel of something not too hard (if you sleep on your side it’s not nice on your shoulder either),
Would like to use mattress pad for hygienic purposes but not sure if this makes the quality of a good mattress below less effective.
One of us sometimes has backaches, the other doesn’t.
Any advice on type (material, thickness) of mattress I should buy? Links to good websites welcome but I prefer an answer that’s more than a link alone.
