Hi Pete,

I'm an older fellow without a great deal of money to spend.

I'd like a good quality, Firm, queen size mattress and adjustable bed base for under $2000.

Is this even possible?

Thanks, Jack

 

Good Morning Jack,

Yes. That is possible.

We carry the Wolf Adrian Mattress, which uses the older Bonnell coil system, which is firm.

We have that mattress priced with a Magniflex Adjustable Bed Base with all the features that people want.

The price...$1999.99

And there's no charge for delivery and no sales tax...nothing more to add.

So, the total price you pay is under $2000.00...albeit, just barely.

I rue the day I got rid of that old Stearns and Foster mattress.

Hi Pete,

Thanks for the recommendation. 

I rue the day I got rid of that old Stearns and Foster mattress. 

It was a great mattress for so many years, and at the time I didn't have a clue about latex toppers. 

May I ask why you recommend the 3 inch soft latex topper? 

https://themattressexpert.com/latex-toppers/suite-sleep-toppers/

I assume it will offset the firmness of the Brandy Lynn mattress. Is that correct? 

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/two-sided-mattresses/

Does the mattress come compressed and rolled up? 

I didn't think coil mattresses could be compressed like that. Wouldn't it damage the coils?

Thanks, Alison

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

 

Good Morning Alison,

That’s correct!

The mattress provides firm, contouring support and the latex topper provides the surface comfort…both are very long lasting.

 

Today, almost all mattresses are made without the heavy border wire that would have prevented a mattress from being rolled.

Today’s mattresses are made to work with an adjustable bed base.

So they are much more flexible than they used to be.

 

This manufacturer is the oldest mattress manufacturer in the country that has been continually owned and operated by the same family…est. 1873.

I’ve been dealing with them for the past 8 years.

I’ve never encountered any delivery damage or any complaints about any of the hundreds of their mattresses we’ve sold over that time.

 

They are very well made.

 

 

Thanks, Pete

An all latex foam mattress with an adjustable bed base.

Joan writes:

Hi Pete,

I have a bit of a dilemma.

I like and want an all foam mattress.

I know not to buy a memory foam type, but the all latex types are just so expensive.

Is there a way to get what I want without the huge price tag?

Thanks, Joan

 

Hi Joan,

Memory foam mattresses are not all memory foam.

They have a thick poly foam base that supports the memory foam.

The same is available in latex...a thick poly foam base supporting the latex top upholstery.

This gives you the unique feel of floating that only latex can provide, at a more reasonable price.

 

We have such mattresses...The Natura of Canada Latex Hybrid Mattresses 

We are promoting these mattresses with a Magniflex adjustable bed base.

There are 3 different adjustable bed bases from Maginflex...Primavera, Milano and Venezia. 

The promotion gives you the upgrade to the Milano model for the same price as the Primavera

The bed base ships vis FedEx.

Terrible hip pain on a memory foam mattress. Latex Topper?

Verna writes:

 

Hi Pete,

My husband and I have a memory foam mattress that we bought several years ago.

I'm having terrible hip pain and feel that this mattress is just too firm.

After reading your blog posts, I feel that a latex topper would help, perhaps Talalay Latex.

Which one would you recommend?

 

Shortly, we will be moving this queen size mattress into the guest bedroom.

We are wanting a king size hip pain with independent controls.

I need my legs lifted and he needs his head lifted to breathe better....current using a cpap.

For that, we will be wanting something of very high quality with latex in it.

We each weigh more than 200 lbs. My husband is closer to 250.

I look forward to your recommendations. 

Thanks, Verna

 

Hi Verna,

Let start with the latex topper for your current mattress.

You had asked about Talalay Latex and I have a couple of reasons why you should go with a Soft Organic Dunlop Latex Topper.

1. Real Talalay Latex has been a supply line victim. It’s hard to get.

My source is currently out of stock and when they get some, it’s a small amount.

2. Dunlop latex is more durable than Talalay.

Now that Dunlop is available in the choice of “soft”, it’s the better option for people weighing more than 200 lbs…Keeping its shape better over the years.

Here’s a link to the Suite Sleep 3” Soft Pure Organic Latex Toppers.

https://themattressexpert.com/xcart5/suite-organic-latex-topper.html

 

As I mentioned, we don’t sell adjustable bed bases.

I’ve found these from “Rize” to be well made and an excellent value.

https://www.rizebeds.com/

 

 

The mattress my wife and I sleep on at home is the mattress I’m recommending for you and your husband. 

The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress.

It was the best we could find while shopping at the industry trade shows.

 

The individually pocketed coils contour to the shape of the body and maintain the natural alignment of the spine. This type of support is exceptional for relieving chronic back pain.

The coil count is very high.

The coils are made of heavy gauge, double tempered steel.

Equally important is the 3” of Natural Talalay Latex…providing excellent surface comfort that lasts for years.

 

Our mattress is now several years old and still in like new condition.

Each of us weighs more than 200 lbs.

And despite having a very bad back, this mattress allows me to sleep and wake without back pain.

I need a new mattress that will be good for my spine.

Sharon writes:

 

Good Morning,

I've had 2 spinal fusions at L4-S1. 

I still have spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease throughout the whole spine.  

Bulging Disc C3-C8 in Neck, T11-T12 have had fractures.  

L2-L3 are ready for spinal fusion. I have L5 nerve damage on the left side, with the right side deteriorating.

 

I need a new mattress that will be good for my spine and I'm in bed 15-18 hours a day. 

I currently have a Linenspa 8" gel memory foam mattress that I purchased in 2017.   

This hospital mattress will not support my spine.

 

I need a recommendation for a new mattress.  

I would like to have an adjustable full high low bed frame. 

I would like to get rid of this hospital bed, if possible.  

However, I need the bed frame to rise high and low at least 22" and raise my head and feet. 

The mattress would be Twin XL.  

Right now, this Linnenspa hangs 2" off the hospital bed frame on the left side.  

I know this will still be an issue if I don't get a new adjustable base for the new mattress.

 

I'm 4'11, 186 in weight and generally on my left side for most of the day. 

I can only sleep on my sides or back. What do you recommend?  

I hope I gave you all the information needed, so you could make a recommendation.

I sincerely appreciate the advice and direction.

Sharon

 

Hi Sharon,

Due to your size and the amount of time you spend in bed, you’re going to need a strong, durable mattress.

Due to your back problems, you’ll need an individually pocketed coil unit.

And, if you want it to last, the mattress must have no memory foam in it.

I’m recommending is the Natura of Canada Greenspring line of mattresses.

Of their 4 models, the ultra plush is the most comfortable.

Click on this link to view that line of mattresses.

Click on each model to view specifications and prices.

https://themattressexpert.com/natura-greenspring-pocketed-coil-mattresses/

 

Delivery is free and there’s no sales tax.

 

We don’t sell adjustable bed bases due to their limited therapeutic value.

To relieve your back pain, you need to maintain the natural alignment of your spine.

This means sleeping with the bed in the flat position.

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

Does a mattress bunch up on an adjustable bed base?

Meredith writes:

 

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 latex topper you sell 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,

An adjustable bed may solve problems like, Gerd and Sleep Apnea, by raising the head of the bed, 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.

 

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:

https://www.amazon.com/s?k=bed+risers&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI_KjMyrW-9QIViiitBh3e4QKhEAAYASAAEgJvovD_BwE&hvadid=409949824722&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9010115&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=11005385212457439775&hvtargid=kwd-37253832&hydadcr=24665_11410949&tag=googhydr-20&ref=pd_sl_7xmuy98o8c_e

 

 

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 the worst of the bad.

The Brolynn Old Fashioned Two Sided Mattress in Plush is a good choice.

Click on this link to view specifications and prices:

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/two-sided-mattresses/

 

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 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.

https://themattressexpert.com/latex-toppers/suite-sleep-toppers/

Either way, shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.

 

 

Thanks, Pete

83 years old petite mom with scoliosis and sleep apnea.

Susan writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I would be so grateful for your help with a mattress for my mother. 

She'll be 83 years old tomorrow, is petite...5'2" and 120lbs. 

Mom has severe scoliosis and sleep apnea. 

She hasn't had a good night's sleep in years and has hip pain daily. 

Most nights she sleeps in a recliner.

 

An adjustable base is a must. Is there a mattress you would recommend for her? 

She talking about all latex.

But after reading some of your posts, I'm not convinced that's best for her scoliosis. 

 

Fingers are crossed you have the magic solution she's been seeking!

Thanks, Susan

 

Hi Susan,

Let me start with what you think you know.

Your mothers head needs to be elevated.

Her spine requires that she sleeps with her spine in its best alignment.

As soon as you raise the head of an adjustable bed, you can forget about proper spinal alignment.

Here’s the best way to solve the breathing problem without exacerbating her back and hip pain.

These bed risers could very well be all you need to buy.

If she is still uncomfortable after you get those installed, get back to me with the following information:

What mattress is she sleeping on now?

How old is it?

What’s her complaint about it?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

Three-Year-Old Sealy Posturepedic Belfort Euro-Top mattress is causing back and Shoulder pain.

Audra writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I have a three-year-old Sealy Posturepedic Belfort Euro-Top mattress that is causing back and shoulder pain flare-ups every night. This mattress is discontinued and I can't find a description of it. 

I'm not sure of the construction but want to avoid it with my next purchase.

 

I slept on a Hypnos Dream Bed at a hotel recently and did not have back pain either night. 

I'm not sure if this is just a coincidence or if this mattress would help long term. 

Regardless, it is too expensive, but maybe there is something in the construction that other mattresses have that would resolve my problems.

 

I enjoy reading in bed as well and I'm wondering if an adjustable bed would be more appropriate for this or if there is something else that is supportive?

 

I'm in Canada and I know you recommend the Natura of Canada Greenspring mattress which ironically, doesn't ship from Canada and is in US funds so that's also out of the budget.

 

I realize I'm all over the place with this inquiry. 

I just don't want to get a mattress, wake up in pain and be in the same state I am now. 

The pain and lack of sleep have affected my quality of life.

 

Can you help me find an affordable mattress in Canada to eliminate my back pain with some cooling features?

Thank you for your help and for sharing your knowledge with us.

Audra

 

Good Morning and Happy New Year Audra,

The Natura of Canada Greenspring mattresses ship from Quebec,  where they are made. 

Shipping throughout the Canadian mainland is free and there’s no Canadian sales tax charged.

The prices shown are in U.S. Dollars.

Here’s a link to that line of mattresses.

https://themattressexpert.com/natura-greenspring-pocketed-coil-mattresses/

 

If the price for these mattresses is not in your budget, then my best advice is to avoid any mattress upholstered with memory foam.

The memory foam in your 3 years old Sealy is what’s causing your problems.

You won't need to find "cooling features" if you buy a mattress without memory foam.

Memory foam is the only temperature sensitive material used.

It's the memory foam that causes a mattress to sleeps hot. 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

Simmons Beautyrest World Class Premier Triest Luxury mattress on an adjustable bed base?

Gary writes:

 

Dear Pete, 

We would like to use our Simmons Beautyrest World Class Premier Triest Luxury mattress on an adjustable bed base. 

Was this mattress constructed using pocketed coils? 

We purchased this mattress about 20 years ago.

Thanks, Gary

 

Hi Gary,

All Beautyrest mattresses use an individually pocketed coil unit.

What you need to see is if there is a heavy border wire that runs around the top and bottom perimeter edges of the mattress.

If it’s there, you’ll be able to feel it with your hands.

If it’s there, the mattress will not work with an adjustable bed base.
