I'm posting in this forum because there has been previous discussion
here of memory foam products, so I'm hoping that some of you might be
able/willing to answer some questions. DH weighs something in the
ballpark of 220 lbs. I weigh 136 lbs. I'm considering buying a
Tempurpedic (or other memory foam) bed or topper; I have their pillow
and love it. However, both the beds and toppers are expensive and I'm
concerned about how long they last. So my question is, how long does a
Tempurpedic (or any memory foam product) last?

I would love to hear from everyone who has a memory foam bed or topper
who's willing to respond:

1. Is it a bed or topper?

Mattress

2. How long have you had it?

3 Years

3. Any problems with it over time and if so, what are they? Or is it
staying just as good as when you got it?

As good as new.

4. What brand is it/where did you get it? (Any other details also
welcome, like density and/or model, if any)

I believe ours is 5 inches of regular foam topped with 3 inches of M foam.
We got a king size for about $800CDN. Previously I had owned a water bed
for ~15 years.

5. If your experience indicates that the user's size has anything to do
with memory foam durability, I'd be interested to know that, too.

Haven't noticed. I am ~180 lbs.
