How often do you replace your mattress?

My wife and I have had the same mattresses since 2005 when we moved into our present house.

We got a new bed about a year ago - a split top King. It is the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on! We use a mattress cover and the manufacturer has a 25 year warranty - so I don't expect to get rid of it in this lifetime.

Mattress is about 20 years old and still comfortable. Every so often we turn and flip it. Some newer ones you can't do that.

I'm not able to flip my mattress, just rotate it. But, oh, How I wish I could!

I don't worry about the age of my mattress. What's comfortable is what's important to me.

I got a new one when I relocated some 13 years ago. I rotate/flip it maybe once a year. And only share the bed with Spooky, so it will likely last me a good while. I did put a cover/cushion on top a couple of years ago, just a thinner one. So far, so good. My only concern is my having stood in it a couple of times ( I weigh 225#) to change light bulbs overhead. I have noticed once in a while that I can feel what seems like a spring shifting when I'm on it, I don't think it's anything bad though.

Never. And I have never had accidents in bed.

I can't remember how old my mattress is, but it was delivered on a horse and cart just when television was becoming popular. I jest of course, it was a couple of years later.
