Stearns and Foster Double Sided Pillowtop Mattress.

Hello Pete,

Can you help me?

We have a Stearns and Foster double sided pillowtop medium firm queen mattress. 

We know they no longer are in existence, sorry to say, as it is a great mattress. 

We have another bedroom that we want to fit with this same mattress.

Can you tell us where and who might be making a similar mattress today?

Thank you, John

 

Hi John,

The last of the great Stearns and Foster mattresses.

I had one. The Knightsbridge, was the model name.

 

I can help you. I can save you from wasting your time.

Nothing like that exists.

 

Thanks, Pete

Hi Pete,

That was not the answer I wanted to hear, but thank you for your help in saving my time.

Is there anything near a second best or what would you say is the best available today.

 

We have a Simmons Beautyrest in that room now, the one that they claim you can drop a bowling ball on and not spill a glass of water, LOL. 

That was not why we bought it, but we did not expect the comfort level to drop as fast as it has. A sag developed. 

It was a firm, which we really didn't want, but felt the firmer model would be stronger, so it would hold up longer....WRONG.

 

Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

John

 

Good Morning John,

You have stepped out of, what can only be described as, a time warp.

That old S&F mattress was made at a time when manufacturers competed with one another to make a quality product.

Those days no longer exists...and haven't for quite some time.

Your old S&F mattress was one of the last great mattresses made by "The Cadillac of the Industry".

Today, S&F is nothing more than expensive junk.

 

S&F is not alone in this. All of the name brands have been sold...Sealy and S&F were purchased by Tempurpedic in 1013.

Simmons and Serta were bought by the same investment group.

All have loaded their mattresses with memory foam.

Memory foam is used for the express purpose of causing a mattress to need frequent replacing.

Despite all the hype to the contrary, memory foam is thee worst upholstery material ever invented.

Besides being a lousy product in terms of performance, it's also a health hazard...off gassing the toxic chemicals from which it's made.

(Adding injury to insult).

 

Your mistake was in assuming that a new mattress would be as good as your old one.

We used to be a Sealy/S&F retailer...exclusively. We dropped both lines when Tempurpedic bought them and turned them into junk mattresses.

We spent a good amount of time and effort at the trade shows, looking for high quality alternatives.

Over the years, we home tested a number of different mattresses...with varying results.

The one we have now, we like very much. It's 3 years old, now, and still like new....with each of us in the 225 lb. range.

I have lots of disc related back problems and my wife commonly suffers with hip pain.

For these last three years, our pains have been relieved, thanks to this mattress....The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush.

 

There are 4 choices of comfort in that line, with the ultra plush model providing the greatest degree of surface comfort.

All 4 provide the same excellent, firm support.
