A Mattress and Pillow for a Big Man to Relieve Neck and Shoulder Pain.

Ed writes:
 
Hi Pete,
I've had pain and stiffness in my neck and shoulder and numbness from my elbow to pinky finger for some time. 
I went to the Dr. and I have a bulging disc. I know it is from sleeping on my side while in my bed. 
When I sleep on the sofa, I stay on my back and the pain and numbness is reduced. 
I'm a big man, 6'1" 260 lbs. and 38 y.o. with no other physical damage. 
After researching and trying so many models, I'm focusing on an all latex mattress.

I noticed on the blog, several mentions of an innerspring mattress with a Talalay latex topper.
Does this work with an adjustable bed base, are adjustable beds worth the money?
I sleep hot and want to protect my investment. 
Reviews show that many mattress protectors sleeps hot, regardless of mfg. hype to the contrary. 
 
I need a recommendation for a mattress, a pillow and a mattress protector.
Thanks, Ed
 
Hi Ed,
First off, an all latex mattress is not recommended under these circumstances.
An all foam mattress, even with latex being the best of them, do not provide the pushback support your back requires.
Without the proper support, that bulging disc will herniate...making you back condition much worse.
I recommend a pre-compressed, individually pocketed coil system for the best type of support for you.
Given your size and all of your other ailments, the mattress I recommend for you is:
The Simmons Beautyrest Black Desiree Luxury Firm.
A link to that mattress, shown here:
0003212_simmons-beautyrest-black-2016-desiree-luxury-firm
 
Add to that, a Pure Talalay Bliss 2" Plush Talalay Latex Topper.
This latex topper, in combination with the individually pocketed coils in the mattress, will do a fine job of relieving your shoulder pain.
A link to the latex topper, shown here:
Pure Talalay Bliss Mattress Topper
The pillow that does the best job of relieving chronic neck pain, is the Latex/Down Pillow from Pure Talalay Bliss.
This mattress is made of 100% finely chopped latex, which allows you to manipulate the materials, as you can with a Down Pillow. 
Hence, the name.
You can fit the pillow around your head and neck anyway you like to relieve the pressure and pain.
Besides all that, latex pillows remain like new for years...unlike most other types of pillows.
Here is a link to that pillow:

 
Finally, this mattress protector is made of organic cotton. It does sleep cool. We use it at home.
 
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Protect and maximize your mattress investment. Use a waterproof mattress protector.

The mattress comes with White Glove Delivery, which includes set-up and removal of your old mattress.

The latex topper and pillow arrive via UPS.

The mattress protector arrives via FedEx.

Delivery is free for all products, and there's no sales tax.

Two Bad Mattress Decisions in 18 Months.

Lang writes:
 
Hi Pete,
My wife and I are looking to buy yet another mattress due to two bad mattress decisions in 18 Months.  
The first was a Dormeo mattress in 01/2018 which we bought the adjustable foundation for at that time.  
After almost a year, we went to the Nebraska Furniture Mart.
We explained to salesperson that I was having total body soreness and poor night's sleep.  
I am a side sleeper, mostly right side and my wife is a back sleeper.  
We came out with Sealy smb Winnifred plush mattress with pillow top.  
We put this on our adjustable bed base, which the salesperson said was fine.
And now, it's June 2019 and we haven't slept on the bed for the last week. 
My wife works late, so she sleeps in other room most nights.  
I started to have Sacroiliitis to the point that I couldn't even bend down to put my socks on in the morning.  
For reference I am about to turn 36 and she is 26, but her pain is only in nights she sleeps in the room.  
I have an older Serta Perfect Sleeper North Shore luxury(cashmere luxury) pillow top that my back feels better on.  
I did sleep on a Simmons Beautyrest plush, over the weekend at a Holiday inn, and woke up with zero pain.  
I have read some on your blog and realize my first mistake was memory foam type mattress by Dormeo. 
However, with my recent purchase of this Sealy mattress, my mistake was that its Sealy.
And I noted that they were bought out by Stern and Foster, which was acquired by tempurpedic.  
I am just needing something that will work, price is important, now that this will be third mattress, none of which were cheap.  
Any recommendations are greatly appreciated.
If you know of somewhere I could try the mattress before buying, that would be great. 
I just can't afford to make another mistake. 
Thanks, Lang
 
Good Morning Lang,
Well, it looks like you’ve been raked over the coals, so to speak.
The mattress industry has gone bad...all the major brands have been sold to investors who are using memory foam to recoup their investment and turn a profit.
Those name brands could be trusted to make a quality product.
Now, quality isn’t even a part their business model.
Selling more mattresses more frequently to the same people, is all that matters.
 
For the record, Sealy acquired Stearns & Foster decades ago.
In 2013, Tempurpedic bought them both.
 
The adjustable bed base is a good product for hanging out in your bedroom...watching TV, playing on your laptop...etc.
It has almost zero value when it comes to the quality of your sleep.
In fact, when the head is raised, the bulk of your body weight shifts from being evenly distributed across the mattress to being supported by the spot in the mattress just under your butt. That’s that spot where the mattress that will wear out first.
 
The Beautyrest you slept on, uses an individually pocketed coil unit, which contours to the shape of your body and maintains the natural alignment of your spine.
THIS is why you slept so well on it.
Unfortunately, their plush models use a very thin wire for the coils and the upholstery is memory foam. Neither component wears well, at all.
 
For average weight adults, we recommend starting with a Platinum Series Beautyrest.
Between 200-250 lbs, it’s the Black Series Beautyrest...both in Luxury Firm.
To prevent the premature wear due to the memory foam upholstery, add a Pure Bliss 2” Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper, which will insulate you from the memory foam and cause the mattress to last far longer than the manufacturer intended.
The latex topper is key to comfort and longevity.
Without it, you’d be throwing more of your money away.
 
Stores won’t display this.
It’s counter to their objective of making you a frequent customer.
 
Here are links to both Series of Beautyrest and to the latex topper.

0003212_simmons-beautyrest-black-2016-desiree-luxury-firm
 
Pure Talalay Bliss Latex Mattress Topper
 
When sleeping, your adjustable bed base should be in the flat position.
These mattresses come with white glove delivery, which includes set up and removal of your old mattress.
The latex topper arrives via UPS.
Delivery is free and there’s no sales tax.
 
 
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Protect and maximize your mattress investment. Use a waterproof mattress protector.

A Two Sided, Flippable Mattress, Reasonably Priced, for Someone a Little Overweight.

Mary writes:
 
Hello Peter,
I'm looking for a two sided, flippable mattress....one that has a good 10 year warranty. I would like one with No memory foam. 
I don't like that sucking you into like quick sand  feel, and being unable to move. 
I need a mattress that will go onto a adjustable bed. 
I need inner coils that can hold up under a person who is a little overweight. 
I also want a mattress that you can't feel motion of the other person. 
Flippable would be wonderful. I like a mattress isn't over 12 inches thick. 
Can you help pick the right mattress ? 
PS. Reasonably priced! 
Thank you, Mary
 
 
Hi Mary,
I imagine that you've been having a very hard time finding such a mattress.
We have two mattress that fit that description.
The Brolynn Plush is the most popular of them. The Duo Comfort model is ideal for a guest room.
Here is a link to those mattresses:

Is a Simmons Beautyrest Black Mattress and Adjustable Bed Base right for me?

Christie writes:
 
Hi Pete,
I just recently bought a Simmons Beautyrest Black mattress from one of those large chain stores. 
After sleeping on it for four days, I have been tossing and turning at night and now have a stiff neck. 
The bed I received seems considerably squishy in my heaviest area and much softer than the one I laid on in the store.
The store labels it as a plush mattress. 
I really liked that this model had a medium firm support and comfort at the same time without having to buy a pillow-top mattress.  
It feels like the one that was delivered to my house is different (possibly used). 
Would the manufacturer or retailer actually do that, hence the voided warranty if it has any marks or stains. 
There wasn't even any odor once it arrived like my salesperson said there would be. 
I am a 34 year old female and weigh about 170 lbs. 
This bed comes with a 100 day satisfaction guaranteed or I can swap it out for another mattress at no cost. 
Not sure if I made the right decision. I don't want to spend $2,000 plus on a mattress that isn't right for me. 
Do you have any suggestions of what mattress I should swap to if I go that route?
Will the adjustable bed base ruin my mattress by adjusting it up and down all the time. 
Should I have just bought the regular box spring and saved myself some money?   
Much appreciated, Christie
 
 
Hi Christie,
The Simmons Black is a great product...for support.
Mistakes you made were two: the luxury plush model over the luxury firm model...and, the adjustable bed base.
 
All of Simmons' plush models are such a continual problem, that I list none of them on my website. 
An adjustable bed base is a great thing to have if you use your bedroom to hang out in.
For sleeping, it's a waste of money, unless you have a specific breathing problem that requires it.
But even then, there are less expensive ways to deal with those problems.
And, if you do get an adjustable bed base, the mattress will wear out quicker in the area just under your butt.
When you raise the head, the bulk of your body weight shifts to that point in the mattress.
 
(The best mattress for that kind of base is all latex, which is durable enough to take the punishment...and, an all natural latex mattress is plenty comfy.)
 
I would have suggested that you return that mattress and bed base.
Opt for the same mattress in luxury firm with a standard boxspring.
Add to that, an EverEden Pure, All Natural 2" Soft Talalay Latex Topper.
Shown here:
Latex Mattress topper

 
Comfort exchanges are a sucker's bet...for lack of a more gentle way to put it.
The manufacturers do not participate in this scam.
So, when you deal with a retailer that offers it, you could easily wind up with something someone else had sent back.
There are a couple of ways to know. 
One sure fire way is to inspect the bag the mattress comes in. If it's been taped closed, you know that mattress is not new.
When they are bagged at the factory, the plastic is heat sealed on all four sides.
In your case, the red flag is that the mattress is softer than the floor sample. 
When the delivered mattress is, in fact, new...it's always firmer than the floor sample.
 
The stain clause is written in stone, in every manufacturer's warranty. Perspiration stains are evidence of an unprotected mattress. 
Moisture that seeps into the mattress will break down the upholstery layers. It's important to use a waterproof mattress protector. 
 
The latex topper, I recommended for use on the firmer mattress, will provide better and much longer lasting surface comfort.
The firmer mattress will provide you with better support.
 
 
 
Thanks, Pete

Hip and Sciatica Pain on Memory Foam Mattresses. Natura of Canada Greenspring Relieves Pain.

Bruce writes:
 
Hi Pete,
My wife has M/S and pain sciatica Pain. We are on our 4th bed shopping experience. 
She gets also gets neck pain. she is a side sleeper. 
We have tried sleep number, tempurpedic, and a bamboo memory foam. We are now looking at a Sealy memory gel bed. 
Would you recommend this. We have an adjustable bed and the salesman told my wife to try to sleep in the zero gravity position at night. 
She tried that last night, and it didn't work out well.
I weigh 215 and 6 foot in height she is 5 feet 7 and had a titanium rod put in her hip after she broke it. 
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Bruce
 
Hi Bruce,
Memory foam is a temperature sensitive material. As it warms from your body's heat, it sinks. The underlying foam, that supports it, is stiff and hard.
Besides fighting that rod in her hip, it throws off the alignment of her spine, which isn't helping her sciatica any.
Memory foam is the absolute worst material ever invented for use in or as a mattress. Even your Sleep Number air mattress had memory foam inside.
Not to mention that an air mattress provides lousy support, all on it's own.
 
Have you noticed how hard memory foam sold...heavily advertised, and pushed by salespeople? 
You must have thought they had your best interest at heart. Why else would you continue to buy a product that doesn't work?!
You must not have, up till now, realized, that it's the memory foam causing her so much pain, or you wouldn't still be considering buying it again. 
 
You, your wife, your neighbor and his wife, the butcher around the corner and the secretary at your office, all have one thing in common....the human body.
Everyone's body is essentially the same, and just a little different. 
Good basic support and comfort is easy to address. It's in fitting all the small differences, that is the challenge. 
However, the same basic rules apply to all, to some degree. 
What every body needs is firm support and comfortable sleeping surface that allows for a greater depth of sleep.
I believe that all those memory foam salespeople have promised that to you...and you can see how poorly their advice has worked.
The purpose of memory foam is to make the sale. It's comfortable enough, initially...but not worth a damn before too long.
 
So, getting what you need isn't difficult. There are tons of mattresses that will provide you firm support and a comfortable sleeping surface. 
What you have difficulty finding, is a mattress with quality components, so that it will stay that way for a respectable period of time. 
In all facets of life, it is unreasonable to expect a different result from repeating the same behavior. 
If you like the way things are going, keep doing what you're doing. If not, you have to make a change.
In this case, the change is away from memory foam to latex. 
Latex is natural rubber and has been the best material available anywhere on the planet, for use in or as a mattress, for the past 100 years. 
This isn't just an opinion. It's a proven, undisputed fact. 
 
Your skeletal system needs firm support to maintain its alignment  
When you have back problems, you are more sensitive to the changes a mattress goes through as it wears. 
For you, a person without back problems, you are not affected by those changes. 
For your wife, the smallest changes can result in that nerve in her lower back being pinch by the vertebrae...sending that pain around her hip and down her leg. (Sciatica)
 
When the padding on top of the mattress sinks in, as your memory foam does, her hip hits the hard foam under it and the result is the pain for her.
There aren't a lot of choices for you on most showroom floors, when you're looking for this "right" mattress. The great majority of them won't do the job.
An individually pocketed coil unit provides contouring support...support designed to maintain the natural alignment of your spine. 
 
The best type of mattress that provides this type of support, is The Natura of Canada Greenspring.
The coils are more numerous and stronger than most others of its kind.
What's more the upholstery is Natural Talalay Latex, which provides cushioning, but won't allow you or her to sink.
Latex is both, comfortable and resilient. It holds you up and provides the feeling of "Floating".
What's more, latex is the longest lasting upholstery material available...remaining like new for many years.
Of the 4 models in their line, the Ultra Plush is the most comfortable, and the one I recommend for the two of you.
These mattresses have NO Memory Foam.
That mattress, shown on this link:
Liberta-mattress-on-a-10in-Organic-foundation-with-Organic-pillows-1
 

Also, that adjustable bed base isn't helpful for anything other sitting up to watch TV. 
It has little to no therapeutic value. When sleeping, it needs to be flat, in order for her spine to maintain its proper alignment.
This will also relieve the pressure at her hip.
 
To relieve chronic neck pain, there is no better pillow than the Pure Bliss Latex/Down.
There's no down in it. It's 100% finely chopped latex.
It's the finely chopped latex that allows you to form the mattress around your head and neck anyway you want...which is what relieves the pain.
In this, it behaves like a down pillow...which why they call it Latex/Down.
Unlike a down pillow that flattens out within a week, latex lasts for years.
Here is a link to that pillow.
Pure Talalay Bliss Latex Down Pillow

 

The pillow arrives via UPS.
The mattress comes with White Glove Delivery, which includes set-up in your bedroom and removal of your old mattress.
Both are delivered free and there's no sales tax.

Shopping for a King Mattress and Adjustable Bed Base Recommendation

Alexander writes:
 
Hello Pete,
Your website is very informative. 
We're shopping for a new king mattress & adjustable base. 
We're currently sleeping on an 18 yr old Sealy Posturepedic pillowtop that we've flipped too many times. We don't like a firm mattress.
Please let me know if you have any recommendations.
Thank you, Alexander
 
Hi Alexander,
First off, you have to understand that everything has changed since the time when you bought that mattress.
Then, quality was paramount among the name brands.
You only needed to walk into a store, pick out the one you liked the best, and you were good to go for a very long time.

All that has changed. All of the name brands have been sold.
Tempurpedic bought Sealy and Stearns & Foster.
An investment group bought Simmons and Serta.

Back then, it was nearly impossible to buy a bad mattress.
Now, it’s equally difficult to buy a good one.
Memory foam is what has made that difference in quality.
Despite advertising and sales pitches to the contrary, memory foam is the worst upholstery material ever invented...specifically designed to cause a mattress to need frequent replacing.

Most memory foam is also a health hazard, off gassing the toxic chemicals from which it’s made. The memory foam Simmons uses is cured and does not off gas...which is why we still carry that line. The poor wearing and sleeping hot of the memory foam can be overcome by using a latex topper to insulate yourself from it.

In order to get you what you want and have it last long enough for you to get your money’s worth, the recommendation is for: 
The Simmons Beautyrest Platinum Gibson Grove in Luxury Firm, and adding an EverEden Pure All Natural 2” Soft Talalay Latex Topper to it.
Here are links to that mattress and to the latex toppers.
Gibson Grove-The Mattress Expert


https://themattressexpert.com/talalay-dunlop-latextoppers/
Latex Mattress topper


You’ll be looking at pricing for 2 Twin-XL mattresses and 2 Twin-XL toppers.
The adjustable bed bases will cost $749 for each in Twin-XL.

Delivery for the mattresses and adjustable bed bases includes set-up and removal of the old mattress set.
The latex toppers arrive via UPS.
Delivery for everything is free and there’s no sales tax.
 
It takes approximately 2 weeks for delivery.
 
Thanks, Pete
 
**************************************************************************************

Hi Pete,
Thank you very much for your prompt response.
I wasn't clear about the size of mattress. 
We want a one piece king vs 2 twins, so I would still go with the same mattress that you recommended in a king.
Thanks, Alexander 
 
Hi Alexander 
Yes. 
The bed bases will still be 2 twin-xl, but they can be programmed to work in unison.
 
Thanks, Pete

Putting fitted sheets on a dual king adjustable bed mattress.

Hi Pete,

We like our adjustable bed.  We needed it for medical reasons.  Changing the sheets is a major issue.  

I don't think we would have gone through this huge expense if we had known this.   

We might be able to do this for a couple more years but at some point we will be too old to manage changing the sheets on this bed.

Do you have a solution to our problem?

Thanks, Alida

Latex Topper for a Simmons Beautyrest Black Gladney Mattress.

Wendy writes:
 
Thanks Pete. 
I used my credit from Mattress Firm and got the Simmons Beautyrest Black Gladney, as you suggested. 
I also got a Serta adjustable base from them. 
Now I need the topper which I will order from you. 
I see you recommended the soft 2 inch Dunlop for me as opposed to Talalay. Is that correct? Any difference? 
Keep in mind that I am a large woman.
Thanks, Wendy

 

Hi Wendy,

Yes. The Pure, All Natural EverEden Vytex Dunlop Topper is as soft as their Talalay Latex Topper.
But, the Dunlop is a bit more dense and will last longer under the weight of a large woman.

Mattress Recommendation Similar to the Stearns and Foster Bruno Clair.

Joyce writes:
 
Hi Pete,   
I stumbled onto your website and read so much information on the foam mattresses, I appreciate the information you shared.  
I purchased a Nolah king size mattress, this past May, with a 120 day risk free trial.   
Today was the 120th day and I just requested the return.
As much as I wanted to love the mattress and the adjustable base, I wake up in pain all over.  
 
I recently went on vacation, and slept on a regular spring mattress, that I absolutely loved.  
It was a Stearns and Foster Bruno Clair mattress. (my google search of this mattress is what led me to your blog and website). 
I really wanted to buy this mattress, but found it was discontinued.  
 
I would like to keep my adjustable base, but I don't want another memory foam bed, as it has no bounce and no push back.
 
I do have bursitis in my hip and shoulder that flares on occasion for sometimes months at a time.   
I thought the Nolah would relieve the pressure points, and while it took the pressure off my hip, my back and even legs have never felt worse. 
I never had a back or leg problem before. 
 
So, I'm looking for recommendations. I'm 5'8, 175 lbs with some bursitis issues.   
I loved that Bruno Clair but can't get it.  Can you recommend a mattress that might be right for me? 
Either a spring similar to Bruno Clair, where I assume I won't be able to use my adjustable base, or a mattress I can use with my adjustable base with.
One that has bounce and push back? 
 
Thanks for your help!
Joyce

 

 

Hi Joyce,

When that Bruno Clair Stearns & Foster mattress was made, this was a legitimate industry.

Manufacturers competed with one another to make a better mattress.

Retailers competed with one another to bring those mattresses to you at a better price.

All of the name brands could be trusted to provide quality, with S&F among the best of them.

In fact, S&F had been considered "The Cadillac of the Industry" for many decades.

 

Those days are long gone....starting around the turn of the century.

Memory foam was introduced a couple years before. Name brand mattresses went from being two sided to one sided, a couple years after.

As the years went by, the name brands began adding memory foam to some of their mattresses.

Later, all of the name brands were sold to investors, who use memory foam to increase profit and recoup their investment.

 

As it became clear that there was lots of money to be made, in this industry, new brands sprang up...like your Nolah mattress.

Every one of them claimed a product that was the latest greatest thing...claiming "State of the Art" technology.

One line of BS after another produced interest from people, like you, who fell into all the hype.

(That was not a personal attack. You are but one of millions who have been taken in by all that hype.)

 

All of the name brands, once sold, became companies making products that need frequent replacing...thanks to all the memory foam.

Sealy/S&F was purchased by Tempurpedic in 2013. By January of 2014, S&F went from "The Best" to being nothing more than expensive junk.

As a Sealy/S&F retailer, I was greatly disappointed. We dropped both lines and went shopping at the trade shows for something better.

 

Good quality wasn't easy to find. You'd be amazed at all the new brands that popped up...all promoting memory foam.

We did find some that suited my desire for quality. 

One, was The Wolf Company...which turned out to be the oldest mattress manufacturer in the country, that has been owned and operated by the same family...since 1873. They make a good quality mattress, but nothing like the quality of those old S&F mattress.

The best, we've encountered, is an old brand from Canada..."Natura".

 

My wife and I have been sleeping on a Natura of Canada Greenspring mattress for the last 3+ years.

We are heavier than you. My wife with a sensitive hip and me with lots of disc related back problems.

We sleep without pain, and this mattress is STILL in like new condition.

Their Ultra Plush model is what we have and what I am recommending for you.

Latex Mattress for use on an Adjustable Bed Base.

Maya writes:
 
Hi Pete,
I bought a latex mattress from you, maybe 10 years ago. My sister, who lives in Boston, slept on my mattress and liked it.  
She is interested in a mattress similar to mine, but it can be a "better" one. 
She recently bought a tempurpedic and hates it and is returning it. 
She also bought an adjustable bed base, which she cannot return, She wants a mattress that can work with the adjustable bed base.
What do you suggest?
Thanks, Maya
 
Hi Maya,
The EverEden Latex Mattresses are 100% pure, all natural latex....the finest quality latex available, anywhere.
The most comfortable of them, is the 9" model...and will work well with an adjustable bed base.
