A High Quality Mattress with an Adjustable Bed Base.

Marty writes:
 
Hi Pete,
My wife and I are considering an adjustable bed base for our master bedroom.
We aren't small people, so it has to be a high quality mattress. We want it to last a good long time.
We already know that we do not want anything with memory foam, thanks your informative blog.
We'd like to buy from you, as most stores only offer mattresses with memory foam in them.
Please offer a recommendation that will work for us.
Thanks, Marty
 
Hi Marty,
I have just the thing for you and your wife.
The mattress is very high quality. It's the same mattress my wife and I sleep on, at home.
We, too, are not small people...each over 200 lbs. 
Our mattress is now 5 years old, and without so much as a dent in it.
The adjustable bed base that we offer with it, is also very high quality.
The Magniflex Adjustable Beds are designed by Italians, engineered by Germans, made in the US, the best of all worlds.
The mattress is The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush.
This mattress offers good, firm, contouring support, using double tempered steel, individually pocketed coils.
The upholstery is Natural Talalay Latex...comfortable and resilient.
You, simply, can't do better.
 
Here is a link to that mattress:
Liberta-mattress-on-a-10in-Organic-foundation-with-Organic-pillows-1
 
The mattress comes with white glove delivery, which includes set-up and removal of your old mattress.
The adjustable bed base arrives via UPS and assembles easily.
Both come with free delivery and no sales tax.
 
 
 
 
We recommend using a waterproof mattress protector with every mattress.
Keeping the upholstery materials clean and dry will extend the life of the mattress.
 
 
Thanks, Pete

Bought a New Mattress a Month Ago. Sent it Back.

Diana writes:
 
Hi Pete,
I’m hoping you will be the answer to our search for a new mattress.  
We bought a new mattress after much searching online, a little over a month ago.  
We spent $1200 on it which is way more than we ever have spent on a mattress.  
The first night, I couldn’t make it through the night without going to sleep on another bed in the house.  
After that I got used to it but wouldn’t say I was in love with it.  
My husband too tried to like it, but he is having knee and back issues.  
 
After getting comfortable he would wake up an hour later and have a hard time turning over. 
And it was hurting his back because the mattress sunk in too much for him.  
It was considered a luxury firm.  
We, unfortunately, had to return it. And of course, they have to give it to charity because they can’t resell it.  
That broke my heart but we did find a good organization to donate it to.  
I just don’t want to go through all of that again.
 
My husband is 6’2, 225 pounds and I am 5’6” and 140 pounds.  We are both 62.  
We know we don’t want any memory foam. They are just too hot on any we have slept on.  
He wants a firm mattress and I prefer plush (sure you’ve heard that a million times).  
I am willing to sacrifice to insure he can get a good night's rest and not be in pain.
 
I looked at your website for the different kinds of mattresses and I’m still unsure of what would be best for us.  
The old innerspring mattresses were great.  
Don’t mind a little comfort on top just as long as he doesn’t sink down into it.
 
Thanks for your help, Diana
 
Hi Diana,
The problems with the sinking, not being able to turn over, the back pain...all thanks to the memory foam. 
Had you kept it longer, the list of problems would have gotten longer, as well.
I have a very well made mattress that both of you will enjoy.
The individually pocketed coils are firm, made of double tempered steel.
The upholstery is comfortable enough to cushion the curves of the female body.
Firm contouring support that maintains the natural alignment of the spine...reliving your husband’s back pain...and soft enough at the surface to make you comfy.
The upholstery is a combination of latex and poly foams...NO Memory Foam.
Here is a link to The Wolf Tulah Plush Eurotop Mattress

Shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.


 
 
We recommend using a waterproof mattress protector with every mattress.
Keeping the upholstery materials clean and dry will extend the life of the mattress.
 
 
Thanks, Pete

A Mattress That Will Relieve My Back Pain.

Annette writes:
 
Hello Pete, 
A friend of a friend highly recommended you!
I suffer from back pain. From my neck all the down to my lower back. Emphasis on my mid back. 
I'm on the larger side 5'2" 220 and my husband 5'7" 180. 
We bought a mattress in January 2020 and it has started to sink on my side, causing even more pain. 
I desperately need a recommendation for a mattress that will relieve my back pain.
My husband is in the military, Infantry, so very labor intensive at times but overall sleeps great no matter the mattress. Please help! 
Thanks, Annette
 
Hi Annette,
The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush mattress is my recommendation.
It will give you the support, comfort and longevity you need and want.
Shown here: 
Liberta-mattress-on-a-10in-Organic-foundation-with-Organic-pillows-1
White glove delivery is free and there’s no sales tax.
Delivery includes setup and removal of your old mattress.
You only need to replace the mattress. Your current foundation is fine.


 
 
We recommend using a waterproof mattress protector with every mattress.
Keeping the upholstery materials clean and dry will extend the life of the mattress.

Is The Mattress Expert Website Secure?

Kevin writes:
Website Security
 
 
Hi Pete,
I've been reading your blog posts and have been to your website.
I like what you have to say and am wanting to order one of your Natura of Canada Greenspring mattresses.
Liberta-mattress-on-a-10in-Organic-foundation-with-Organic-pillows-1
(I believe you have the ultra plush model at your home)
My question is, Is your website secure? I wouldn't want my personal and credit card information hacked.
What can you tell me about that? 
Respectfully, Kevin
 
 
 
Hi Kevin,
Thank you for that question. Believe it or not, you are the 1st to ask about that...after all this time.
Security is a top priority with us, here at The Mattress Expert.
If you order online, the credit card program that accepts your cc information is so secure, that even I can't access it.
I can issue refunds, if necessary, but I can't add to your charge.
That program has never been hacked.
 
If you place your order with me, directly over the phone, all of your information goes through a shredder after I've processed the sale.
 
Even here, on our blog posts, I do not publish last names....even though I am often given a last name, as you have.
I'll even change the first name, if it's uncommon or unique.
 
We've been doing this, online, for 17 years.
In fact, we are one of the first online mattress retailers in the country, servicing the entire continental US.
For the last several years, we have also been serving the mainland of Canada.
              
 
 
We recommend using a waterproof mattress protector with every mattress.
Keeping the upholstery materials clean and dry will extend the life of the mattress.

Mattresses for Lightweight People, One with a Scoliosis Body Brace.

Mr. J writes:
 
Hello, Pete
I discovered your web site while researching mattresses. 
I am searching for a new queen and twin mattress for lightweight people.
The queen is for my wife and I. We are both side sleepers weighing under 150 lbs. each with no medical conditions. 
The twin would be for our teen daughter. She is about a 110 lbs., scoliosis and wears a body brace to sleep.
Some nights she is very uncomfortable. Her current mattress is a standard store bought model with no extra padding.
 
Is your business a wholesale mattress seller or a warehouse? How do you ship and who does the deliveries? 
Before shopping at the usual outlets, I would like to see what you have to offer.
Sincerely, Mr. J
Hello Mr. J,
We are an online mattress retailer...one of the first, actually...since 2003.
The mattresses I’m recommending for both of your needs, ship via UPS.
 
At your sizes, you can get a high quality mattress that offers excellent support, comfort and longevity.
That mattress is The Wolf Pocketed Coil/Latex Hybrid Tulah.
Shown here: 
Wolf Tulah Euro Top (1)
 
The coils are very strong, made of double tempered steel.
The upholstery is a combination of latex and poly foams.
There is No Memory Foam in this mattress.
 
Delivery is free and there’s no sales tax.
 
 
 
 
We recommend using a waterproof mattress protector with every mattress.

Tempurpedic Memory Foam Mattress is Causing Pain, Sleeps Hot.

Nate writes:
 
Hi Pete,
About 5 years ago, my wife and I bought a Tempurpedic mattress, after having terrible luck with a latex bed from Mattress Giant that broke down after just a couple years.  
 
Since buying the Tempurpedic, I've developed constant shoulder/chest pain, neck and back discomfort, and numbness in my arms from time to time. I believe it's the memory foam causing our pain.
My wife said she tries to sleep on her back because she has some of the same issues I've described above.  
I am almost always a side sleeper, and would hate to buy a new mattress to just run into the same issue.
And, this mattress sleeps hot.  
 
What would you recommend we do about this?
Thanks, Nate
 
Hi Nate,
Quality Latex doesn’t break down.
The latex mattress you bought was likely made in China, where they use clay as a filler. 
Chinese latex is known to break down quickly.
 
Memory foam is the worst upholstery material ever invented.
Besides all the problems you mentioned, it off gasses the toxic chemicals from which it’s made, creating a health hazard.
It's no less than a horrible product.
 
Here is a link to The Wolf Hybrid Mattresses...using a pocketed coil and latex upholstery. (Not Chinese latex).
The Adara is firmer stronger than the Tulah, which is the more comfortable of the two.
Both will provide the support you need to solve your problems.

Will Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattresses Work on an Adjustable Bed Base?

Belinda writes:
 
Hi Pete,
We are interested in the mattress you and your wife sleep on at home.
I believe that is the Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush mattress, from what I've read on your blog.
We are considering getting an adjustable bed base, as we spend a lot of time in our bedroom.
Will this mattress work with an adjustable bed?
Are they available through you?
Thanks, Belinda
 
Hi Belinda,
Yes, yes and yes!
That is the mattress we sleep on at home. 
It is available with an adjustable bed base.
And, you can get that all through us.
Here is a link to that mattress, which shows specifications and prices.

The mattress comes with white glove delivery, which includes removal of your old mattress/set.

Replacement for a Simmons Beautyrest Atkins Plush Mattress.

Carly writes:
 
Hello Peter,
I was wondering if you could recommend a replacement for a Simmons Beautyrest Atkins visco plush mattress.
It has been discontinued. We purchased a queen size in 2009 and just love it would like to replace with king size.
Any information you could give us would be very helpful.
Thank you, Carly
 
Hi Carly,
Today’s Beautyrest mattresses are designed to last only a short while.
If you look online at reviews for Simmons Beautyrest, you’ll find they are horrible.
 
The thing that makes a Beautyrest so comfortable, is the individually pocketed coils contouring to the shape of the body and maintaining the natural alignment of the spine.
What made your mattress last so long, is upholstery material that is superior to what is used in Simmons mattresses today.
 
Since you bought yours, Simmons was sold to an investment group.
The quality has dropped dramatically since then.
 
To mimic what you have, for of feel, support, surface comfort and longevity, a mattress with similar components is key.
The Wolf Pocketed Coil Hybrid Tulah Plush Eurotop Mattress is the one to get.
Here is a link to that mattress: 
Wolf Tulah Euro Top (1)

Shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.

We Hate Our 3 Year Old Memory Foam Mattress.

Simone writes;
 
Hi Pete,
We have a 3 year old memory foam mattress that we've grown to hate. 
In particular, I wake up (sometimes throughout the night) with lots of hip pain. 
I'm mostly a side sleeper, but do sometimes sleep on my back or stomach. 
My husband just has a hard time getting comfortable, and sometimes wakes up with neck or shoulder pain. 
He is 6'5" and about 235 lbs. I am 5'7" and currently about 200 lbs (but pregnant) - normally around 170 lbs. 
I'm in my 30s, he's in his early 40s. I think our mattress is too firm. 
My hips end up at weird angles because I don't sink in so that my pelvis aligns properly around my spine. 
This was already a problem before pregnancy, but it certainly hasn't gotten better. 
We'd prefer to go with a topper because our mattress isn't that old, but we're open to replacing it if we have to.
Can you make any recommendations?
Thanks, Simone
 
Hi Simone,
A good quality latex topper is expensive.
A good quality mattress that isn’t expensive, will give you better support and comfort than adding a good topper to a bad mattress.
The mattress I have in mind, is the Wolf Tulah Plush Eurotop.
Shown here:
