A High Quality Mattress with an Adjustable Bed Base.

Marty writes:

 

Hi Pete,

My wife and I are considering an adjustable bed base for our master bedroom.

We aren't small people, so it has to be a high quality mattress. We want it to last a good long time.

We already know that we do not want anything with memory foam, thanks your informative blog.

We'd like to buy from you, as most stores only offer mattresses with memory foam in them.

Please offer a recommendation that will work for us.

Thanks, Marty

 

Hi Marty,

I have just the thing for you and your wife.

The mattress is very high quality. It's the same mattress my wife and I sleep on, at home.

We, too, are not small people...each over 200 lbs. 

Our mattress is now 5 years old, and without so much as a dent in it.

The adjustable bed base that we offer with it, is also very high quality.

The Magniflex Adjustable Beds are designed by Italians, engineered by Germans, made in the US, the best of all worlds.

The mattress is The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush.

This mattress offers good, firm, contouring support, using double tempered steel, individually pocketed coils.

The upholstery is Natural Talalay Latex...comfortable and resilient.

You, simply, can't do better.

The Uno Smart adjustable base created by Magniflex is a product of German engineering that has been designed to provide our customers with the highest level of well-being with several benefits to ensure satisfied customers. themattressexpert.com

 

The mattress comes with white glove delivery, which includes set-up and removal of your old mattress.

The adjustable bed base arrives via UPS and assembles easily.

Both come with free delivery and no sales tax.

 

 

 

 

We recommend using a waterproof mattress protector with every mattress.

Keeping the upholstery materials clean and dry will extend the life of the mattress.

Hi Pete,

We are interested in the mattress you and your wife sleep on at home.

I believe that is the Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush mattress, from what I've read on your blog.

We are considering getting an adjustable bed base, as we spend a lot of time in our bedroom.

Will this mattress work with an adjustable bed?

Are they available through you?

Thanks, Belinda

 

Hi Belinda,

Yes, yes and yes!

That is the mattress we sleep on at home. 

It is available with an adjustable bed base.

And, you can get that all through us.

Queen Adjustable Bed and Mattress. Budget Conscious.

Carolyn writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I need an adjustable & mattress, queen size, budget conscious recommendation for my big, fat butt. 

I need to be able to elevate my legs and head. 

I honestly don't care about durability because I've had to move so often since 2016.

If I could get two years out of this new Queen size mattress, that would be enough for me.  

Your thoughts?

Carolyn

 

Hi Carolyn,

I believe I can exceed your expectations, with a good quality, well supportive and comfortable mattress and adjustable bed base that will hold a large person at a reasonable price.

The mattress is The Wolf Pocketed Coil/Latex Hybrid Adara, which uses a double tempered steel coil and latex upholstery...firm and comfortable. The Magniflex adjustable bed base that we offer with that mattress, is also excellent quality, with Italian Design and German Engineering.

King Mattress and Adjustable Bed Base Delivery Questions.

William writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I have a queen bed, adjustable frame and mattress, at present. 

I'm considering buying a new king size mattress and adjustable bed of your website, and have questions.

When they deliver my new king bed and adjustable bed base, will the delivery crew move my queen set and install it in the bottom bedroom? I, also have an old mattress that needs to be removed. Will they do that?

Thanks, William

 

Hi William,

The Natura of Canada mattresses are the only ones that come with white glove delivery.

https://themattressexpert.com/canada/natura-mattresses/greenspring-liberta-luxury-firm-mattress/

Natura Greenspring Liberta Luxury Firm Mattress | The Mattress Expert Natura Greenspring™ mattresses feature a 5 zone pocketed coil system for targeted support. Alternating layers of plant based CertiPUR® foam with All-Natural Talalay Latex, topped with NaturaWool™ and Tencel blend stretch-knit fabric, deliver the latest in sleep technology. themattressexpert.com

When one of these mattresses are delivered, removal of the old mattress is included in the delivery service.

Moving the adjustable bed base to another room, is not something I can order the delivery agent to do.

The offer of a decent tip might produce the desired result.

 

The Magniflex Adjustable Bed Base, that we offer with these mattresses, ships separately, via UPS.

Some minor assembly is required on your part.

Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattress with a Magniflex Adjustable Bed Base.

Elena writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I've been reading your blog for some time.

My husband and I have been considering the Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush mattress.

I believe this is the mattress you and your wife have at home.

Now, after going back to your website, I see that it's available with a Magniflex adjustable bed base.

I've always wanted one of those. 

My question is about delivery.

Does the Magniflex bed base come with the same white glove delivery as the mattress?

Will someone set it up for me?

Will they arrive at the same time?

Thanks for all the help you provide, Elena

 

Hi Elena,

The Magniflex adjustable bed base is a from a different manufacturer than the Natura of Canada Greenspring mattress.

They will ship separately. The adjustable bed base will arrive before the mattress, via UPS.

It comes in 3 boxes and minor assembly is required. You and your husband will have no difficulty setting it up.

 

The Natura of Canada Greenspring mattress comes with white glove delivery, which includes removal of your old mattress.

Here are links to that mattress, which has the option to choose the Magniflex adjustable bed base.

What do you suggest as the best mattress for my back?

Misty writes:

 

Hello Pete,

I have degenerative disc disease. I’m 5’11 and weigh 168. I’m a side sleeper, if that matters. 

I have a mattress that is 2 years old, that I feel it’s to soft. 

What do you suggest as the best mattress for my back as I can adjust to anything.  

I’ve just read so much information I’m confused! 

Adjusting beds, coils, memory foam, blah blah blah. Help!

Thanks, Misty

 

Hi Misty,

An adjustable bed base is great for hanging out in your bedroom.

But, it has little to no therapeutic value.

You must sleep flat to maintain your spine’s natural alignment, which is what will relieve back pain due to damaged discs.

A mattress using an individually pocketed coil unit will contour to the shape of the body and maintain that spinal alignment.

 

The other part of the mattress is the upholstery material.

The best has always been latex.

Next best is polyurethane foam, which was the primary upholstery material from the early 1970s, until a short while ago, when memory foam took the top spot.

Memory foam has proven to be the worst upholstery ever invented, over it’s 20 year history. Memory is specifically designed to cause a mattress to need frequent replacing. 

 

Memory foam is a temperature sensitive material that softens as it warms from your body heat. You sink in a little,  at first, then deeper and deeper as the memory foam loses the little resiliency it had....until finally, you sink through it.

It doesn’t take long for that to happen, and far less time than that for your spine to become misaligned and your back pain returns with a vengeance for having subjected it to such a poor quality product.

 

Memory foam absorbs your body heat and then reflex it back to you, causing the mattress to sleep hot.

 

Not only is memory foam a lousy product, it’s also a health hazard.

Memory foam off gasses the toxic chemicals, from which it’s made.

This toxic off gassing attacks your respiratory system.

Headache is the most common side effect. 

I’ve heard from some who’s negative reactions were much worse. 

 

The diabolical thing about memory foam is, when you get out of bed, the memory foam returns to it’s original shape. 

The result is that you are highly unlikely to prevail in a warranty claim. 

The mattress must have a sustained body impression of 1.5” or more, before the mattress will be exchanged. THAT rarely happens.

 

Before you buy a mattress, check to see if it is upholstered with memory foam.

If it has memory foam in it, don’t buy it. 

You’ll only waste your money and your back won’t get what it needs.

 

All of the name brands have been sold to investors who are using memory foam in every mattress they make. 

They are banking on the reputation of those name...names that had made high quality mattresses for decades. Those names now mean nothing.

Today, it’s all about profit and not at all about quality.

 

We specialize in avoiding mattresses made with memory foam.

For instance:

We carry an old fashioned two sided flippable mattress that’s upholstered with plant based polyurethane foam...not chemical based poly foam.

The individually pocketed coils are made of tempered steel, for durability.

At your size, it’s all the mattress you need, so don’t let the low price throw you.

 

However, if you are, or are planning to share the mattress with a larger, heavier person, my recommendation would change.

Sciatica Back Pain on a New Stearns and Foster Hurston Mattress.

Suzanne writes:

Hello Pete, 

I purchased a new Stearns and Foster Hurston mattress, early last month, along with the adjustable frame. 

I have sciatica, and it has gotten worse with this new mattress.   

The mattress is on the low end of firm and feels comfortable while sleeping.

But when I wake up, my back pain is so bad, I can barely move.  

Would you recommend I exchange it or simply buy a topper for better support?    

If a topper, what would you recommend?

Appreciate your time, Suzanne

 

 

Hi Suzanne,

I'm sorry you spent so much money on such a bad mattress.

We once had been a Sealy/S&F retailer.

We dropped both lines when Tempurpedic bought them, in 2013.

S&F had been "The Cadillac of the Industry" for many decades prior to this.

Today, with all of the memory foam used to upholster those mattresses, they are now nothing more than expensive junk.

And, your adjustable bed base is good for nothing more than sitting up.

It has no therapeutic value, and is counter productive when it comes to dealing with sciatica.

 

There's little point in trying to make a silk purse from a sow's ear.

Return it for a refund, if you can. Exchange it if you must.

That mattress is worthless...and especially so to anyone with disc related back problems.

Memory foam is the absolute worst upholstery material ever invented....a poor quality product that also off gasses the toxic chemicals from which it's made.

 

If you are stuck with an exchange only, send me the link to the store from where your bought it.

I'll help you pick out something better.

 

Also, sleep with the mattress flat.

The adjustability of the base does nothing to maintain your spine's natural alignment.

Spinal alignment is key to relieving sciatica pain.

Keeping your mattress clean and dry will increase longevity.

Sheets that fit a mattress on a dual king adjustable bed.

Patty writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I just finished changing our sheets and can agree it gets more and more difficult to do, after two years of this.  

Love sleeping on this bed, though, and don't want to give it up. 

I can find no good solution to getting sheets on.  

 

I've tried raising head, foot, and everything in between to make it easier, but it just doesn't help much.  

We have no headboard, so I'm going to try pulling the beds out together from the wall next time, getting to the heads of the mattresses, too, and see how that works - or not. 

Thanks, Patty  

 

Hi Patty,

We carry a line of sheets that are guaranteed to fit and guaranteed to stay on.

The brand is “Gotcha Covered”.

The are several collections with a variety of colors in each collection.

The Pure Collection is Organic and while generously cut, they aren’t guaranteed to fit or guaranteed to stay on...as the other collections.

The Shore Collection is the most reasonably priced.

Replacing a My Comfort Mattress with a Simmons Beautyrest and Adjustable Bed.

Steve writes:

 

Hi Pete,

On Saturday, we placed an order at the big mattress chain store for:

 

2 ea BeautyRest PressureSmart Plush 12.25" Twin XL Mattresses ("medium" firmness)

2 ea Mattress Firm 300 Adjustable Base Twin XL

2 each "Bundles" w King Pillow, and Tencel (Bamboo Rayon) Sheets

2 ea Mattress protectors.

10 Warranty on adjustable base.

Delivery and Installation.

The total was $3,061.44...  Probably not too late to back out.

 

I discovered your website today.

We've been using a King "My Comfort" double thick Intelligel bed, for the past 12.5 years.

("My Comfort" was an "Intellibed" knock-off that is now out of business. "30 year warranty" - ha!) 

We've really liked it.  But, it's become very uncomfortable, having big "dents" in it where we sleep. 

This, despite rotating it faithfully. And, my wife feels that it's hurting her hip and back to sleep on it.

 

I'm short and fat - 275 lbs, with sleep apnea.  I use a CPAP. My wife's about 180 lbs.

 

We like the idea of 2 Twin XL beds. 

We suspect that we're waking each other up whenever one of us rolls over, or shifts position.  

With the Twin XL's, there shouldn't be any "motion transmission".  

We also like the idea that would could separate them and put a nightstand in between. 

(Like Lucy and Ricky Ricardo:))

 

My wife is very much, "The Princess and the Pea", noticing bumps in the sheet or mattress.  

And, she is very sensitive to chemicals. She can't use polyester sheets because it makes her feel itchy all over.  

If a neighbor sprays for dandelions, she gets plugged up and her face "burns". 

So, she needs something very comfortable, that won't cause a reaction, and it needs to fit in our budget.

 

We like the idea of the adjustable base so we can sit up in bed and watch TV.  

My wife says it's much more comfortable on her knees and hip to have her feet elevated.

 

We both sleep on our sides and backs, currently flipping and flopping several times each night.

 

We chose the mattresses we did because cost is a factor.  

I figured I could use them and throw them away 5 or 6 times for the cost of one Intellibed. 

So, any advice?  I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks, Steve!

 

Hi Steve,

You did surprisingly well on price, considering where you bought it.

The mattress doesn’t off gas, so your wife shouldn’t react to it...unless the mattress protectors create a problem.

Unfortunately, a Simmons Beautyrest mattress won’t keep its shape well.

Under average weight people, about 4 years, max, is all you can expect.

You’ll be lucky to get a year.

 

The non-tempered steel used to make the coils and the memory foam upholstery combine to cause Simmons Beautyrest mattresses to need frequent replacing.

 

The warranty is all but useless.

Memory collapses easily, but returns when you get out of bed...enough so, that you’re highly unlikely to meet the requirements necessary to prevail in a warranty claim.

 

If you add a 2” Natural Talalay Latex Topper to those mattresses, they will last for many more years than the manufacturer intended.

A latex topper does a number of things.

Being the most resilient upholstery material on the planet, it will absorb most of your body weight...less work for the mattress.

Latex will also insulate you from the memory foam in the mattress.

Memory foam is temperature sensitive...softening as it warms from your body heat.

It then reflects your body heat back to you...causing you to sleep hot.

It’s the nightly warming and softening that causes the memory foam to wear so quickly.

The latex topper prevents all that, and sleeps cool.

I recommend the Pure Bliss 2” Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper to go on each mattress. 

Shown here:

https://themattressexpert.com/pure-latexbliss-toppers/

I can order those with a smooth bamboo cover, at no extra charge, for your wife’s sake.

Ups delivery is free and there’s no sales tax.

They are made factory fresh and take about 2 weeks to arrive.
