As a decorated member of the Chronic Pain Club, I used to think that I was simply cursed — that no mattress, no matter how nice, could help me. Sometimes, my back needed a few nights on a firm mattress just to straighten things out; other days, I was tender to the touch, and all I wanted was to fall into a plush mattress instead. Since I couldn’t afford two beds, I opted for a medium mattress that frankly did nothing for me instead. I’m low-key mad that no one told me that Layla makes a double-sided mattress — with a soft side and a firm side — so I could have both as needed. If you can relate to my struggle, Layla has a Black Friday deal with financing options that make a new mattress more attainable than you might expect.
