The Best Mattress for the Least Amount of Money.

Evelyn writes:
 
Hi Pete,
My husband and I need a new mattress.
We have not, yet, been able to go back to work and was hoping to put this off.
But, we are waking in pain and this memory foam mattress has to go.
We aren't small people, but not real heavy, either.
He's 5'10" and weighs 220 lbs. I'm 5' 6" and weigh 150 lbs.
I like a softer mattress than he does, so it has to work for both of us.
What is the best mattress, that you offer, for the least amount of money?
Thanks, Evelyn
 
Hi Evelyn,
We carry some well made mattresses for The Wolf Corp.
Wolf is the oldest mattress manufacturer in the country that has been continually owned and operated by the same family.
The Wolf family established their business in Indiana in 1873...and the Wolf family still owns it.
They do a very nice job of producing quality mattresses at a reasonable price.
Their least expensive is an Old Fashioned Two Sided mattress...shown here:
Wolf Two-sided mattresses

 

However, the one I'm recommending for you, based on your sizes and comfort choice, is their next line up.
These Pocketed Coil/Latex Hybrid Mattresses have a stronger coil system and more comfortable, longer lasting upholstery.
The double tempered steel makes for a stronger, firmer coil unit.
The latex upholstery lasts longer than any other type of upholstery material.
The Tulah Plush Eurotop has the softer sleeping surface without sacrificing the firm, underlying support.
This strikes me as being the perfect choice for you and your husband.
Here is a link to that mattress: 
Wolf Tulah Euro Top (1)

 

Shipping is free and there's 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.
 
 
Thanks, Pete

Wolf Mattresses Compare to Hotel Beautyrests.

Denise writes:
 
Hi Pete,  
I have been doing a TON of research since deciding it was time for my old mattress to go. 
We are waking up with back pain too often. 
My husband’s typical comment every morning is that his back won’t allow him to sleep any longer.
 
I recently took a business trip and had the BEST sleep that I can ever remember having for the week I was there. 
The mattress was extremely comfortable - the perfect combination of soft and support.  
It felt like I was sleeping on a cloud.
It was so good I contacted the hotel upon my return home to ask for information on the mattress. 
They told me it was a Beautyrest by Simmons.
 
Once I had the brand of mattress I thought I was all set.
Then I came upon your website that informed me that I couldn’t buy the same quality mattresses hotels get unless I bought from the hotel. I was so devastated!
 
However, I’ve looked at your Wolf brand mattresses and wonder if they are comparable. 
Is there any way you can give me a recommendation for a mattress closest to a hotel quality Simmons Beautyrest?
 
Thank you for your time and the education your website has provided. 
I anxiously look forward to your reply.
Best regards, Denise
 
Good Morning Denise,
The Specifications of the Wolf Two-Sided Mattress are superior to the hotel Beautyrests.
The coil count is the same, and the coils are stronger...made of tempered steel.
Simmons does not temper their coils....made of raw steel.
The type of upholstery is the same as the hotel models.
Wolf Two-sided mattresses
The Wolf Pocketed Coil/Latex Hybrid Mattresses are even better.
The coils are double tempered and the upholstery is latex or latex and poly foam.
The hotel Beautyrests use poly foam...chemical based poly foam.
Wolf's poly foam is plant based....no chemicals.
And, latex is far superior to poly foam.
Of the two models in this line, The Tulah is the more comfortable.
Shown here:
https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/wolf-mattresses/wolf-hybrid-mattress/
It's the individually pocketed coils that makes a Beautyrest so comfortable, which these Wolf mattresses also have.
Shipping is free and there's 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.
 
 
Thanks, Pete

Double Sided Wolf Mattress Available in Canada.

Travis writes:
 
Hi Pete, 
I saw one of your posts about the Wolf mattress company. 
I am looking for a double sided pocket coil mattress available in Canada. 
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks, Travis
 
Hi Travis,
Double sided mattresses are hard to come by, these days.
You might find a small local manufacturer making them, through a google search,
but I don’t know of any.
I can ship the Double Sided Wolf mattress to a US border address...like a UPS store, if you can pick it up there.

A Good, Cheap Mattress for our Large College Student.

Jack writes:
 
Hi Pete,
Our son, a rather large college student, is in need of a good quality mattress that is cheap.
That is to say, inexpensive....not cheaply made.
He is much too large for the mattress that is in his dorm room. He sinks right through it.
I need something for him in twin-xl that is firm. He's a stomach sleeper and likes a form mattress.
What do you recommend?
Thanks, Jack
 
Hello Jack,
I have just the thing....a well made pocketed coil mattress with coils made of tempered steel and a good coil count.
There is no memory foam in this mattress, so he won't sink through it.
It's an old fashioned, two sided mattress...like they made in the old days.
It'll hold up well to a large person, and you can order that in "firm".
Here is a link to that mattress:

Replacing a very old Sealy Posturepedic Crown Jewel two sided mattress.

Daniel writes:
 
HI Pete,
I'm replacing a very old Sealy Posturepedic Crown Jewel two sided mattress.
Initially, I figured that I would just go out and buy another Sealy Posturepedic.
When I got to the store, I noticed that they are one sided.
Also, the sales person said that the way they are made is different.
So, I decided to go home and do a little research, which is how I found you.
 
After reading many of your blog posts, concerning Sealy mattresses, I learned that I shouldn't buy one.
As I understand it, Sealy is now owned by Tempurpedic and all of the Sealy mattresses have memory foam in them.
 
After doing some more reading about memory foam, also on your blog, I know I don't want memory foam.
While at the store, they mentioned that their mattresses have memory foam, but they made it sound like a good thing.
Thanks to your wealth of information, I've learned that memory foam wears poorly and that it's a health hazard.
Thanks to you, I know enough to avoid all that chemical off gassing.
It's funny, by the time I left the store, I had a headache, which went away in about an hour.
I didn't think anything of it, at the time, but now know it was the exposure to memory foam that caused it.
 
So, now, I'm asking for a recommendation.
I'm looking for an old fashioned two sided mattress.
Do you have anything like my old Sealy Posturepedic?
Thanks, Daniel 
 
Hi Daniel,
We do, indeed, have what you want.
This Brolynn, old-fashioned two-sided mattress, from Wolf, is available three ways:
Plush both sides, Firm both sides, or plush one side and firm on the other side.
They are listed as: Plush, Firm or Duo Comfort.
The plush is not too soft and the firm is not too hard.
 
Wolf is the oldest mattress manufacturer in the country that has been continually owned and operated by the same family...the Wolf family...established in 1873.
 
We have sold tons of their mattresses, over the years...with zero complaints.
They make an excellent quality mattress....with no memory foam and no off gassing.

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.
 
Here’s a link to the Wolf Brolynn Mattress.
Wolf Two-sided mattresses

 
I can help you with any follow up questions.
 

We recommend using an organic cotton waterproof mattress protector with every mattress.
Keeping the upholstery materials clean and dry will extend the life of the mattress.

A Mattress to Replace Our Sleep Number Bed.


Brian writes:
 
Hey Pete, 
It seems that my wife and I are most likely going to get a new mattress and give up on this sleep number bed. 
Can you tell me, again, which mattress you would recommend for us with this 3 inch topper added to it? 
When we went to Disney World we slept on a Sealy sayer plush pillow top and loved it. 
What combination of mattress and topper will give us that feel? 
Or is there a mattress out there that will do it all?
Thanks for taking all of my questions, Brian
 
Hi Brian,
Your latex topper will act as a pillowtop...but last a whole lot longer.
The mattress I would choose to put under it, is The Wolf Coil/Latex Hybrid Adara.
The coils system is very strong for excellent support.
Together, with the latex topper, you'll have an extremely long lasting sleep system...with plenty of support and comfort that remains like new for many years.

A Mattress for Back Pain due to Mild Scoliosis.

Mary writes:

Hi Pete,
I am a 21 year old female, about 90 pounds.
I have a long term boyfriend (about 150 lbs) who sleeps with me every night.
I have mild scoliosis and irritated back nerves/back pain.
I’m looking into getting a new full sized mattress, but have no idea where to start.
All of the mattresses, I’ve had, have been hand-me-downs, not to mention twin-sized.
How can I tell what will be comfortable in the long run on my back?.
Are there any specific mattresses that seem suited to my predicaments?
Thanks, Mary
 
Hi Mary,
The thing to avoid, is memory foam...any mattress upholstered with memory foam.
Despite all the advertising hype to the contrary, memory foam is the worst upholstery material ever invented.
The purpose of using memory foam in a mattress, is to cause that mattress to need frequent replacing.
Memory foam will, in fact, increase your back pain.
 
Being so light in body weight, you have the benefit of not needing to buy an expensive mattress.
We carry and old fashion two-sided mattress that you can flip, for greater longevity.
The tempered, individually pocketed coils maintain the natural alignment of your spine.
The Upholstery is natural, plant based poly foam.
This mattress is available in plush or firm, or plush one side/firm one side.
The prices, shown, include shipping and tax.
Here is a link to the Wolf Brolynn Mattress...an excellent value.

A Mattress for our 3 Year Old Son.

Ashley writes:
 
Hi Pete,
I have purchased two mattresses from you over the years and have been really pleased with the quality.
Now we are back and looking for a full mattress for our son.
He is young (3 years old) and this will be his first bed.
I plan to use it throughout his childhood, if possible, so we want this to be his last mattress, too...LOL.
We are looking for something that is good quality with plenty of support to last as he grows.
Is there anything you can recommend?
Thank you, Ashley
 
 
Hi Ashley,
The Wolf  Corp. Old Fashion Two Sided mattresses are very well made and will last him until he is grown and gone.
Wolf is a very old, Midwest family owned and operated company that ships free via UPS.
Their Brolynn model is available as Duo Comfort...Firm on one side and Plush on the other.
Use the firm side for the next few years, then flip it over to the plush side for his school years.
This mattress is totally chemical free, providing proper support and plenty of comfort.
The UPS shipping savings makes this one of thee best buys on the market.
Here is the link to that mattress.

A Mattress to Relieve Shoulder and Hip Pain.

Derek writes:
 
Hi Pete,
I wish to add one of your latex toppers and replace, at least. the mattress. 
I'm having shoulder and hip pain. 160lbs.
Currently have the metal frame, wood header/footer, Serta boxspring and pillow top mattress. 
All 25 yrs old.  
New configuration planned is to keep the boxspring, add new firm innerspring {no pillow top), 
then add 2" of soft latex.

Question1: Should the 25 yr old boxspring be replaced while doing this?
Question2:  Will the height of the new configuration be OK for the sheet fit?
Question3:  Is the Simmons Beautyrest still the recommendation or is there another you like for this application?

Thx for the assist,
Derek
 
Hi Derek,
Hanging on to a 25 year old boxspring is a mistake.
You'll save little and risk much.
Any mattress you use with a boxspring that old, will wear prematurely.
The warranty of any mattress you buy, to use with that boxspring, will be void immediately.
 
The Simmons Beautyrest must have a latex topper to keep it from wearing out within only a few years.
There is a better quality mattress that does not require a latex topper to keep it from wearing out quickly.
The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush is superior to Simmons Beautyrest in every way.
There are more coils and those coils are stronger. The Upholstery is Natural Talalay Latex....NO Memory Foam.
Here is a link to that mattress, which gets my highest recommendation and is what we sleep on, at home.
Liberta-mattress-on-a-10in-Organic-foundation-with-Organic-pillows-1
You'll delight in the comfort of natural wool, latex and plant-based foam while you enjoy the support of our 5-zoned coil unit.
themattressexpert.com
 
This mattress comes with White Glove Delivery, which includes set-up on your bed and removal of your old set.
Delivery is free and there's no sales tax.
Thanks, Pete
 
Thx for the reply Pete. 
I will replace the box spring.
What I would not be prone to do, is spend $2,600 on a new set. 
Looking at some older advice you provided, a beautyrest with a 2" topper was an OK option. 
The goal is to reduce shoulder/hip side sleep pain. 
I have not slept a night thru in 10 yrs. 
The question now is, which model of mattress to mate with a topper. 
Would a Simmons Beautyrest Brs900 do with one of your 2" latex toppers, or is there something else? Something better?
Given I'm 160lbs, would 2" be enough?
Thx, Derek
 
Hi Derek,
The reasons why you need a latex topper to go with the Simmons Beautyrest mattress are:
1) To overcome the effects of the memory foam upholstery in the mattress.
2) The steel, from which the coils are made, is raw...untempered.
The latex topper provides durability and longevity that the mattress doesn't have on it's own.
 
We carry a couple of better choices than the Simmons Beautyrest.
The least expensive is an old fashion two sided mattress, with a similar coil count and the steel is tempered.
There is no memory foam in this mattress and doesn't require the purchase of a latex topper.
Shown here:
Wolf Two-sided mattresses

For a little more, that same company makes a one sided mattress.
This mattress also has a similar coil count. The steel is double tempered and the upholstery is latex.
There is no memory foam in these mattress...and they don't require a latex topper, either.
The Adara model has more latex than the Tulah. The Tulah model is softer than the Adara.
Shown here:
Wolf Adara Latex Innerspring Mattress-The Mattress Expert
 
These mattress don't have a matching foundation.
To replace your boxspring, your options are:
1) Best Buy: Sam's Club (Serta) or Costco (Sealy)...those boxsprings are very strong and very inexpensive.
2) We carry a very strong wood foundation, (Easy-Fit), that arrives KD. Easy to assemble, No tools needed.
Shown here:

Shipping is free of all these products...and there's no sales tax.
