Memory foam mattress

Options
Hi all,

I recently took up a groupon offer and invested in a memory foam mattress.
I managed to get 3 great nights sleep and thought that the mattress was my best purchase in a long time.
We then replaced our divan bed with a ottoman sleigh bed and this seems to have changed the whole feel of the mattress.
We no longer sink into the mattress as it is a lot more rigid.

I am just curious as to how this mattress should be behaving as this is the first memory foam one we have tried.

    The only thing that I can think of is that your old divan base was "sprung" and you new ottoman sleigh bed has a more rigid base in comparison. Therefore making the mattress "feel" firmer.

    Side note, don't shoot me, but you have put the mattress back on the bed "correct" side up?
