What is the expected lifetime of a mattress?

Mine is approaching five years and last few days I've been waking up in pain. Time to replace?

I assume it depends upon the quality of the mattress and other factors, but it's recommended that you change your mattress at least every ten years.

If your back is hurting, definitely consider getting a new one. Just make sure to test them out in person!

10 years is the norm.

Mattresses, if well cared for can last many years, but the fact you are waking up sore could mean you have the wrong type for you. I would give it a little more time though before making the investment. Maybe you are sore for another reason? Pulled something without realizing it at the time? Maybe coming down with a flu?

depends on the number of stains.

You're just getting old - mattresses last a lifetime.

Jenn.... I was afraid of that. Should I go kill myself now or later?

Might as well do it now. You'd save money not having to buy a new mattress.

Later...you want to get all the value out of your mattress.

I think, if you have a good mattress, it should last 15 years or more. The older you get, the better the mattress you're going to need. I LOVE my mattress! Some days I will wake up stiff or sore though, and it's sometimes just the way I was twisted during the night when sleeping.

If your mattress needs to be replaced in 5 years, it can't be a good mattress. Look into other reasons before replacing, but if you do replace it, get a good one!

Any suggested methods? I don't want to make a mess, my wife hates cleaning.

Maybe it is time to goto the super absorbent Depends men's diapers!!

sounds like a good idea for a poll.
