Mattress Bunching on an Adjustable Bed Base.

Hi Pete,

I really appreciated your response last month about problems we are having with mattresses buckling on a RIZE adjustable bed.

It looks like the retailer won't take the base back but will refund the price of the mattress, if we want to purchase from another retailer.  The mattress is a Serta Serene Sky Plush Tight Top.  

I'm not sure if it's a great mattress to begin with.  

Do you think the mattress toppers, you sell, will make this more comfortable?  

And does it bunch up when put on an adjustable bed?

I need to do what I can to make her more comfortable.

Thank you, Meredith

 

Hi Meredith,

Raising the head of an adjustable bed may help with problems like Gerd and Sleep Apnea, but create other problems.

The mattress buckles and bunches, and wears prematurely at the point where it bends. 

More importantly, the spine’s natural alignment is lost when the head is raised.

 

The best way to get the lift you want without all of the problems that is created by it, is to leave the bed flat and tilt the entire unit, using bed risers…like the ones shown here:

Even back in the day when it wasn’t possible to buy a bad mattress, Serta was on the low end of the quality scale.

Today, they are among the worst of the bad.

The Wolf Tulah Luxury Plush Eurotop Mattress is a good choice.

 

 

UPDATE!…This Wolf Mattress Has Been Discontinued.

 

We are pleased to offer you a higher quality mattress from Eco-Terra. 

This mattress provides the same support with an upgrade in upholstery.

The higher quality upholstery provides greater comfort and longevity.

You could try a latex topper on that Serta, but I’d recommend flipping the mattress over to the non-memory foam side before adding it. But with a Serta, I consider this approach to be "throwing good money after bad".

The Suite Sleep 2” or 3” Soft Organic Latex Topper is the best available.
