Simmons Beautyrest Evins Plush Mattress.

Hey there! 

Do you know what would be comparable to the Simmons Beautyrest Evins Plush mattress? 

Thanks! Jenna

Hi Jenna,

A word of warning, concerning the "plush" Beautyrests....the plush models use a much thinner wire for the coils, which creates a greater depth of softness.

This thinner wire loses its resiliency and shape is way too short a time. 

If you look at reviews about Simmons Beautyrests, on line, they are pretty bad. These bad reviews are due to so many plush and pillowtop models being sold.

The reason why stores sell these...in fact, they are pushed by salespeople because they sell so easily.

If you were to look at the Beautyrests we have to offer, you will find no plush nor pillowtop models listed on our website...because they are almost always a warranty claim waiting to happen.

 

To answer your question:

The model names for each mattress are different at almost every store. Shopping by model name is the most difficult way to go about it.

Shopping by specifications is much more effective.

There are 5 series of Beautyrest...each with a different coil count. Knowing how many coils the Evins model has in queen, is the first thing.

The 5 series and their queen coil counts are:

Beauty Sleep - 700 Coils

Recharge Classic - 800 Coils

Recharge Ultra - 850 Coils

Recharge World Class - 1000 Coils

Black - 900 Coils with half made of a triple strand wire.

 

There are, normally...with the exception of the Black Series, only three levels within each series....3 price points.

Comparing the comfort layers will allow you to compare apples to apples.

 

Here is a link to our 5 Beautyrest Series:

An excellent alternative to buying a plush Beautyrest, is the Natura Greenspring Liberty Plush.

The Natura Greenspring models use the same coil system as the Simmons Beautyrest. They have more coils than the Simmons World Class. The coils are double tempered for extra strength...and, they are upholstered with all natural latex, instead of the memory foam used in the Beautyrest.

Here is the link to the Natura Greenspring Series.

Protecting My Child's Mattress from Accidents.

Lilith writes:

Hi Pete,

We have children, one has a twin size and the other has a full size.

I've been using a water proof mattress protector, but the the kids wake up sweaty and the sheets are wet.

Do you know of a product that will protect the mattresses from their occasional accidents, without making them hot?

Thanks Lilith

 

Hi Lilith,

Yes. We have such a product.

We came across this at one of the trade shows, about a year and a half ago. 

It's a company Denmark that was touting their product as being waterproof and sleeping cool.

Since what you have now, is all I had ever seen, I was leery to believe what I was hearing from them.

When I expressed my concerns, they gave me one to use on our mattress at home.

Right away, the fact that it did actually sleep cool, was obvious. So, I had my wife launder it frequently for the next 6 months, until the next market show.

She washed it in hot water and dried it on high heat. A year and a half later, she is still doing that and we are using that same mattresses protector.

Not only is it waterproof on the top and sides, it doesn't shrink, and it continues to sleep cool.

It's made of all natural cotton that is infused with silver, which happens to be a natural coolant. The back of the fabric feels kinda silky...not plastic-y. 

Frankly, it's the best product of its kind that I have ever come across.

This product is not just for kids who have occasional accidents, but also for adults. 

We all go through cycles during the night, where we heat up and cool down. 

Moisture of any type that gets into the mattress, will cause the upholstery material to break down more quickly, with perspiration being the most common type of moisture.

Use this waterproof, cool sleeping, non shrinking mattress protector for every mattress in your home.

The cost of this mattress protector is offset by the added longevity of the mattress.

This same principle applies to pillows, as well. There are matching pillow protectors to be had...made of the same high quality material.

Delivery is free anywhere within the US and Canada...and there is no sales tax.

Shown here, you can order on line.

Best Mattress for a Heavy Person, All Natural Latex.

Gloria writes:

 

What is the best type of mattress for a heavy person, up to 300 lbs.?  I haven't had this last mattress 2 years and it is failing miserably.

Respectfully

Gloria 

 

Hi Gloria,

The best type of mattress has been the best for the past 100 years, with nothing to come along to rival it. That would be an all latex mattress.

Of all the latexes available, the best of them is all natural.

A firm latex core with a softer latex top layer provides a body with proper spinal support and surface comfort that relieves pressure points, relaxes muscles and eases blood flow.

This combination is a recipe for the best night's sleep one can have.

And, latex is, by far, more resilient than any other type of upholstery material...making it ideal for long term use under heavy weight.

We carry 3 brands: Pure Bliss, Natura, and Ever-Eden.

Pure Bliss and Natura come with white glove delivery. Ever-Eden is delivered via UPS and at a more affordable price than the other two.

My wife and I, each in the 225 lb. range, are expecting our Natura all natural latex mattress delivered tomorrow.

Here are links to all three brands. Delivery is free and there's no sales tax.

Ever-Eden Latex Mattress is a Wow! Pain Free.

Hi Pete,
The Ever-Eden Latex mattress came yesterday...last night was the first comfortable, pain free night we've had since our 2011 stay at the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel in Hawaii.  Zero gravity is definitely the best way to describe the latex mattress.  Thanks for all your help.

Additionally, I've been telling my younger brother about my mattress research, as he's in the market for a new mattress, too.  He and his wife are in their early/mid 30's and are plus sized (brother is 260lbs+ and his wife is probably 160lbs+).  Neither have significant back ailments but go through mattresses like they are a pair of shoes.  Would the EverEden 9" mattress be a good choice for them?  Or would the 8" be okay?  Or should they stick with the Beautyrest with a latex Topper?  What would you recommend for them?  I'm not sure if they are back, side or stomach sleepers but could find out if that really matters.

Thanks again Pete,
BJ

Another satisfied customer

 

Hi BJ,

That's the kind of news I like to hear. I'm happy for you. Life is better when you sleep well.

Thanks for taking the time to let me know.

 

A Beautyrest, even with a latex topper, won't hold your brother for very long.

An all latex mattress will do the best job of providing long lasting support and comfort.

If they are side sleepers, the 9" will be more comfortable. If they are back or stomach sleepers, the 8" will be a better choice.

Here is the link to the Ever-Eden all latex mattresses, that you can pass along to your brother.

Quality Mattresses for Boys & Girls

Hello, 
I am a previous customer of yours that wanted some help selecting a full size and twin size mattress for my two kids. From what I've read on your website, I'm leaning towards a Simmons innerspring with maybe a latex topper, but was hoping if you can give me a recommendation or two for each of the mattresses. Full Size: this mattress is for my 5 year old daughter, who ways 50 lbs. We'd like this to be her everyday mattress for several years. Twin Size: this mattress is for my 3 year old son, who ways about 35 lbs. This will eventually be his everyday mattress, but sometimes he sleeps with us and at some point down the line, I think we would get him a full size. So the budget on this one is slightly less as we don't plan to use it as long. Can you please give me your recommended configuration for mattress and/or topper for each? Mattress brand and model, firmness recommendation, etc. I would really appreciate it, and would love to place the order this weekend. 

 

Hi,

I'm so pleased that you've returned.

Much has changed over time and we are constantly on the look out for products that are superior to what we've offered in the past.

Over the years, we frequently recommended a Simmons Beautyrest. Early on, there were models in the Simmons line that had no memory foam.

Now, there are no Simmons models that are memory foam free. Memory foam is a chemical product that off gasses the toxic chemicals fro which it's made.

And while I have not experienced the odor in a Simmons, as you would with most mattresses, it is no longer my first choice for children.

This Simmons coil system is good and it comes with white glove delivery.

If going with a Simmons, we recommend the Broadway model in luxury firm. The latex topper would be a 2" soft Talalay.

Those links are here:

http://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/simmons/beautyrest-recharge-classic/

http://themattressexpert.com/talalay-dunlop-latextoppers/

 

What we have to offer, which is an exceptional value for children, are two mattresses made by Wolf...a very old mid-western manufacturer that has been owned by the same family since they started in 1873. The Adrian model uses a stronger coil unit, which I like better for boys...because they tend to grow bigger and rougher than girls. For your daughter, the Adara model, which also uses a pocketed coil unit, which will contour to her body...which becomes more important when gets older and begins to develop...specifically, giving better at the hip.

Both mattresses are already upholstered with all natural latex....no need for a topper at this point. Only when the kids have grown and if they express a desire for a softer sleeping surface, would you consider a latex topper..

Here is a link to those mattresses...and a link to the video showing the delivery and set-up process.

In all cases, delivery is free and there's no sales tax.

Best Chemical Free Mattress for a Child.

Hi Pete,

My little one is climbing out of his crib and we need to get him his 1st big boy bed.

The choices at stores all have memory foam, which I understand to be toxic, thanks to your very informative blog.

I also have come to understand that an all natural latex mattress is best for being free of chemicals, but which one?

They are a bit pricey and I wasn't really looking to spend a lot. We are getting him a full size, in hopes that we won't have to replace it.

What do you recommend?

Thanks Lucille

 

Hi Lucille,

While latex mattresses are on the expensive side to purchase, they are the least expensive when it comes to usage.

A latex mattress will last a child for the entire time he lives with you...including through college and even into his first apartment.

Best of all, the least expensive of what we carry is all you need to start.

The Ever-Eden 6" All Natural Latex model is what we purchased for our grandson and will be the starting mattress for all of our grandchildren.

It provides firm but contouring support that will maintain the natural alignment of his spine...just the best support he can have.

An, as you pointed out, it's chemical free and totally safe.

Later, as your child grows, you can add a layer of softer latex, which will provide the surface comfort that a growing body needs to sleep deeply.

And, a greater depth of sleep during school years, results in lessons more easily remembered...resulting in better grades.

Here is a link to that mattress. The low price is a direct advantage of a UPS delivery. Delivery is free and there's no sales tax.

Sealy Newport Beach Reflexion Mattress needs a Topper.

Brian writes:

Hello,

I bought a Sealy Newport Beach Reflexion king size mattress almost 10 years ago. The mattress is sagging a bit on my side of the bed and my wife’s side of the bed. 

We find the middle is very comfortable, but the sides are not. We spin it every 6 months or so but that only makes a difference for the first night or so.

I measured to see if the sag was 1.5” inches, but it is not. Are we at the end of life on this mattress? Would it help to put some plywood over the box spring to firm it up? I saw one of your blog posts where you told someone to flip it upside down to help give it new life, will that work with this mattress?

One of the reasons we bought this mattress was because of the longer life I thought latex would give us. Anything we can do to help extend it would be great.

Thanks, Brian

 

Hi Brian,

It's the poly foam on top of the latex that is sagging, not the latex under it.

You can absolutely salvage several more years out of what you have.

Flip it over to the firm latex side and add a 2" soft Talalay latex mattress topper. It'll feel the way the Newport felt when new, without having to worry about the poly foam compressing. 

This works like a charm and you've just saved yourself a ton of money on a new mattress.

Here's the link to the toppers. UPS delivery is free and there's no sales tax.

Natura, Pure Bliss, Ever Eden All Latex Mattress.

Bryce writes:

Hi Pete,
Thanks for the information about the Ever-Eden all latex mattress for my brother.  I asked him this morning and he says he is a side sleeper and his wife is a back sleeper.  So, that makes their 8" vs 9" selection tricky!  Also, would the EverEden be the best choice or would one of the more expensive mattresses from Pure Bliss or Natura be better (unlikely that they can afford one but we're curious)?

Thanks again, Bryce

 

 

Hi Bryce,

The Natura & Pure Bliss are more elaborately made, but the over-all quality and durability are the same.

These more expensive models come with white glove delivery, while the Ever-Eden mattress arrives UPS...requiring a little effort on the part of the consumer.

This would be your only sacrifice in going with the Ever-Eden. The price difference makes it well worth while for anyone who normally couldn't afford an all latex mattress.

I would suggest going with the 8" model. Guys are built more in a straight line and even a male side sleeper does well with the 8".

Had it been his wife who was the side sleeper, the 9" model would have been needed to cushion her hip.

Also, the firmer 8" model can always be softened with a soft latex topper if needed.

Here are links to all 3 of our latex mattress line for him to compare.

A 2 sided mattress that does not have memory foam.

Jane writes:

Hi,

I am looking for a 2 sided mattress that does not have memory foam in it.  What do you have to offer?  Also, does the Beautyrest Black have memory foam in it and are they only 1 sided? I need a bed that doesn't allow a lighter person to roll toward a heavier person because they are making a bigger dent in the bed.

Thanks, Jane

 

Hi Jane,

We carry a number of 2 sided mattresses. None, of which, have any memory foam in them.
