Christine - Simmons Mirella Mattress and split box spring

 If I order the Simmons Mirella in a King with a Standard 9' boxspring, will that be a split boxspring? Can you tell me about its construction? Is it wood or metal? Thank you! 

 

Hi Christine,
A king boxspring always comes in two halves. The construction of this boxspring is decribed as a limited deflexion type....meaning that it is constructed of metal vertical struts and a topped with a metal grid. All of that is supported by a wood frame. http://www.themattressexpert.com/Simmons-Beautyrest-Anniversary-Mirella-/

 

Thanks, Pete

Ann - Simmons mattress, S&F boxspring

I was told by one of the mattress stores that I cannot use a Simmons mattress with a Stearns & Foster boxspring because the Stearns & Foster is a soft box spring and it will ruin my Simmons mattress. The Simmons mattress either needs a platform bed or a Simmons boxspring which is made to be firmer. Is this true?

Hi Ann,
Yes and no.
The S&F boxspring has slightly more flex than the Simmons, but both boxsprings are very firm.
The Simmons boxspring is cheaper made. Both brand of mattress uses the same type of coil system...so it really doesn't much matter.
What does matter, is the warranty. One brand mattress on another brand boxspring...especially an older one, gives the manufacturer an excuse to void your warranty should you need service in the future.

Margo - Boxspring

I have a mattress/boxspring set a couple of years old. I am looking to lower the overall profile of the bedding. The set together is extremely high. I want to purchase a low profile box spring and was told to purchase matching box spring to the mattress. Having tough time locating "Heritage, Chesapeake" manufacturer so that I can purchase the low profile box spring. Is Heritage a re branded mattress? Can someone point me to a store that I can purchase the low profile box spring at?

Hi Margo,
Why not buy the low-profile box spring from the place where you bought your mattress?

Jorge - Foundation for king size

I wanted to ask you if the foundations or boxsprings for all of the King Size Springfree line are the same? Also is there a difference between the low profile 5" and regular 9" boxsprings in how they support the mattress? thanks again, awesome blog!

Hola Jorge,
Normally, 4" would be my responce to "what's the difference", but your question is more complete than that asked by most. The boxsprings for all the SpringFree models are the same. It's a limited deflection boxspring, which means the wires go straight up and down with a grid on the surface...as opposed to a turned coil. There is no difference in the way a 5" boxspring supports, compared to the 9".

The Right Box Spring

Jim of , writes:
Hi, I recently bought one of your Sealy spring free latex mattresses. I foolishly thought that I could use my existing box spring, but I am finding that not to be the case. Is there a specific type of box spring I should be looking for that is optimal for a latex mattress?

Hi Jim,
Since the latex is heavy, you need a strong boxspring to put it on. Any Sealy Posturepedic boxspring will do the trick.

Naturally, we would prefer that you buy from us...and we hope you will.

Mattress and boxspring are too high

Laura of St. Louis, writes:
Hi, we have a great new bed and the mattress is very thick king euro top, then we just bought standard box spring/foundations... it's terrible it's way too high, I can barely get into bed! We can't return these items and would like to know if there are a)thin foundtations available or b) is it ever ok to just put the mattress on there (probably not unless i got some kind of wooden slats or something of the sort.
thanks!

Hi Laura. Since you used the phrase, "something of the sort", I would have whatever handyman you're using, write to me about how to go about making something of the sort. Otherwise, low profile boxsprings are avaiable for every mattress. It's easier to ask your retailer to exchange the boxspring, paying whatever delivery charge is involved. With so many overly thick mattress, your problem is a common one.

Boxspring for Latex Mattress

MARK of Boston,Ma., writes:
Is a box spring system necessary for Beachside Mattress? I currently have a platform bed foundation. Thank you. M.S.

Hi Mark. Boxsprings aren't generally needed on platforms. If it has a slatted bottom, just make sure you have adequate support. You will need a center support with a foot to the floor.

Tempur-Pedic foundation

Arnold of Woodbridge, writes:
Hi Peter, Excellent blog and very informative. I'm interested on purchasing a Rhapsody model from Tempur-Pedic. I asked the salesperson if I can use my current boxspring instead of buying the Tempur-Pedic foundation. He highly recommended that I buy the foundation with it to not void the warranty. Is this true? Can I use my existing boxspring? Thanks for help.

Hi Arnold. If you ever had to put in a warranty claim and they found the defect to be caused by the older boxspring, they can void your warranty. The choice is up to you, as long as you know the risks involved.

Stearns & Foster lo-profile boxspring

Will of Las Vegas, writes:
Peter, Your blog is great! I was going to buy a pillowtop S+F Hotel closeout at Macy's but not now. Would you recommend the low profile S+F box spring? Thanks. Will

Hi Will. The only reason to get the 5" boxspring is for height convenience. It will support the mattress the same as the 9"
