# How long should a mattress for a back sleeper last?
A quality mattress used by a back sleeper can typically last around 7-10 years, depending on the materials, body weight, and how well it is maintained. Back sleepers may notice loss of support sooner if sagging develops in the hip or lumbar area, which is a key sign that it is time to consider a replacement.
