A Mattress that compares to the Sealy Posturepedic Irresistible Cushion Firm.

Anne writes:

 

Hi Pete. 

I spent a few hours on your site today, lots of great information.

I currently sleep on a Sealy Posturepedic Irresistible Cushion Firm mattress that I purchased in 2012. 

I love this mattress!

But I need to buy a new mattress and box springs for a guest bedroom I’m setting up. 

I thought I would take the new mattress & box springs and put the Sealy in the guest room, even though there is nothing wrong with it. 

I had no idea the mattress industry had changed so much since 2012!  

I can’t seem to find anything that compares to the Sealy Irresistible. 

I want to match it as closely as possible.

 

I do not want ANY memory foam and want no pillow top. 

I do want firm support, motion reduction and fabrics that breath because I’m a hot sleeper.

I did review the Sealy Hospitality mattresses but without any way to see the mattresses and a no return policy, it’s too big a risk.

I’m interested in your opinion when you have a chance.

Thanks, Anne

 

Hi Anne,

I’m afraid that everything we carry has the same disadvantage...nowhere to try it before buying and no returns...unless damaged, of course.

 

You’re on the right track, though,...nothing with memory foam in it and no pillowtop.

All of the name brands that you could once trust to make a quality mattress have all been sold and gone bad...all now upholstered with memory foam.

 

If trying before buying is something that’s important to you, you’ll have a difficult time finding a good mattress.

All that comfort guarantee nonsense started when memory foam was introduced.

It’s the kind of “hook” one needs to sell poor quality products.

 

You might want to consider keeping your Sealy in the master bedroom.

Perhaps get a latex topper for it, which will retard further wear.

Then just get something inexpensive for the guest bedroom.

 

For a guest bedroom, we carry an old fashioned two sided mattress that comes in a choice of comfort.

The Duo Comfort, (Firm on one side and Plush on the other side), is particularly versatile for accommodating guests with differing ideas of comfort.

There isn’t a matching box spring available. 

However, you can get a box spring and frame at a very price at Costco, Sam’s Club and Big Lots.

 

Here is a link to the Wolf Two Sided mattress.

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

It’s well made and has no memory foam in it.

UPS shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.

 

Also, here is a link to the Suite Sleep Organic Latex Toppers.

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

2” is all you need to preserve your mattress.

2” of soft latex adds a nice degree of extra comfort to an old mattress, without negating the underlying firm support.

 

Again, UPS shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.

 

Thanks, Pete

 

***********************************************

Thanks Pete, 

All good advice!

I have a second guest room with a Queen and I saw and liked the Wolf two sided for that.

Tell me about your Natura of Canada Greenspring Pocketed Coil and Latex Mattresses. 

Is this going to feel like the Sealy I have now, which is an innerspring, I believe?  

Which model would come the closest?

Many thanks for your time!

Anne

 

Hi Anne,

The coils in your Sealy mattress are linked together....a coil unit that’s impossible to find anymore. Sealy holds the patent on it, and even they don’t use it anymore.

The Natura of Canada Greenspring mattresses use an individually pocketed coil unit, which everybody uses these days.

The coils move independently, which provides contouring support that maintains the natural alignment of the spine...and all but eliminates motion transfer.

The steel is heavy and double tempered for strength and durability.

The latex upholstery is the most resilient of all the foams.

Coupled with that coil unit, all of the mattresses are firmer than their firmness designations make them sound.

 

The Ultra Plush model is the most comfortable of the four choices.

That’s the mattress my wife and I sleep on at home.

We had to add a Suite Sleep 3” soft Vita Talalay Latex Topper to that for my wife’s sensitive hip.

It’s our biggest selling mattress.

Most people like it just the way it is. Some add a topper.

No one finds it to be too soft.

https://themattressexpert.com/liberty-ultra-plush/

 

This mattress comes with white glove delivery, which includes set up in your bedroom and removal of all packaging materials.

Delivery is free and there’s no sales tax.

 

Thanks, Pete

 

**************************************************

Hi Pete,

The coils sound great. Especially the no motion transfer. 

And it will provide comparable support to the linked coil unit, correct?

 

My only concern is how much latex there is on top. 

I really don't like the feel of foam, so a topper would not work for me. 

I rented an Air B&B several years ago and had to remove the topper at check in, 

it was so soft and squishy.

 

So, on my Sealy, there is "2" of Sealy Foam" covered with a rayon cover. 

I can tell the foam is in there but the cover is tight so it feels really firm, which I like.

Anything described as plush is probably going to feel too soft to me. I like a firm feel. 

No sinking into the top 😟

What about the other Natura models?

 

Thanks, Anne

 

Hi Anne,

You’re lumping all the foams together.

Your Sealy has polyurethane foam.

That B&B used memory foam, if you sank into it....and most commonly used today.

Latex is the oldest and best of all the foams...the only one that is natural.

 

Latex was discovered in the 1880s and introduced as a mattress in the 1920s.

Latex is and has been the best upholstery material for the last 100 years.

Polyurethane was invented in the late 1960s and was the primary foam used from the early 1970s, until about 10 years ago.

Memory foam made its debut about 20 years and has proven to be the worst upholstery material ever invented.

 

You don’t sink into latex. It cushions you and holds you up.

The best way to describe the feel, is one of floating...very comfortable.

 

Thanks, Pete

 

************************************************

Hi Pete,

Are there any mattresses with no foam?

Thanks, Anne

 

Hi Anne,

Prior to the invention of polyurethane foam, (that which is in your current Sealy mattress), mattresses were upholstered with cotton batting....a great place for dust mites to live and breed.

All of the foams are a hostile environment for dust mites, so that's no longer a problem.

It's rare to find such a mattress today. If you do happen upon one, it'll cost a small fortune.

And then you'll have a dust mite problem.

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

A Mattress for a Heavy Man Delivered to BC, Canada.

Carla writes:

 

Hi Pete

I just stumbled across your website looking to purchase yet another new mattress (our fourth in 10 years).

Now, we are going to order from a hotel chain.

We wanted the Ultramatic, but it is $10,000 and it is hard to justify that kind of money for a bed.

 

We have spent up to $4500 on beds though, but they have lasted only two years and lose their support. 

My husband is a heavy guy, 245 lbs., and the beds end up sagging on his side.

He also has restless leg syndrome and tosses from aches and pains all night long.  

He also gets very hot sweats at night.

 

I have neck and lower back issues and have been told to sleep on a hard bed, (preferably the floor) 

But then, I can't walk the next day.  

 

It would be great if you could recommend a mattress that would work for us, and not to be replaced in two years.

Also, if you think the adjustable bed frames are worth the price. 

We always buy a king, but I am wondering if that is half the problem.

Perhaps we should go to a queen size bed. Gosh - that would take some getting used to.

 

We live in BC Canada - I see you deliver in Canada. Is delivery free?

Much thanks, Carla  

 

Hi Carla,

245 lbs. not all that heavy.

You must have been buying mattresses upholstered with memory foam, to only get a couple of years out of them.

Memory foam wears quickly and sleeps hot.

 

An adjustable bed base has very little therapeutic value.

I find them to be a waste of money for sleeping.

If you spend a lot of time in bed, then they’re good for that, but that doesn’t help your longevity problem.

Using an adjustable bed concentrates your body weight in one spot, which causes the mattress to wear faster.

 

You’ve been getting some bad advice concerning your back.

The contouring support of an individually pocketed coil unit will maintain the natural alignment of the spine, which works wonders to relieve back pain.

A hard mattress only makes matters worse.

 

The key to longevity is to avoid any mattress upholstered with memory foam.

Memory foam is specifically designed to cause a mattress to need frequent replacing. 

The heavier you are, the more frequently it needs to be replaced.

 

I recommend for you, the same mattress my wife and I sleep on at home.

Each of us weighing more than 200 lbs. and our mattress is still in like new condition after more than 5.5 years.

What’s more, I sleep and wake without back pain, despite having several disc related back problems.

The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress provides excellent, firm contouring support and surface comfort that lasts due to the latex upholstery.

There’s no memory foam in this mattress.

And due to the high quality of the components, it’s not as soft as it sounds.

Deep Indentations and Sleeping Hot on a Sealy Posturepedic Mattress.

Amy writes:

 

Hi Pete

Six years ago, we upgraded to a bigger house, so we went from a Posturepedic Reserve Holly Springs queen-sized mattress to a Posturepedic Sedgebrooke king-sized mattress. 

The Holly Springs is now our guest bed and I still miss it!. 

We have the Sedgebrooke on a basic platform frame. 

We love the size of the king, but we've come to hate this particular mattress. 

It has developed deep indentations from where my husband and I sleep. Rotating the mattress does little to help. 

(he's 6' 200 lbs, I am 5'7" 140 lbs). 

I am primarily a side sleeper, while my husband is a side and back sleeper. 

I've also noticed I'm sleeping hot on this mattress, but that could also be my age (we're both 50).

 

Would you recommend a latex topper to get more use out of the Sedgebrooke? 

Or should we start over with a new mattress? 

After reading your blogs, I'm open to spending money on a new quality mattress. 

But I'd like to get more than six years worth of use out of it!

Thanks, Amy

 

Hi Amy,

8 years ago, Sealy was purchased by Tempurpedic.

The Holly Springs, being older, was much better made and contained no memory foam.

There hasn’t been a Sealy Posturepedic mattress made that’s worth buying since Tempurpedic bought them...upholstering everything with memory foam.

 

It’s the memory foam, a temperature sensitive material that absorbs your body heat and reflects it back to you, which is causing you to sleep hot.

Memory foam softens as it warms, allowing you to sink into it.

It’s not very resilient to start and loses its resiliency in a short time.

All of the name brands have been sold to investors and all are using memory foam to recoup their investment and enhance profits.

Memory foam is specifically designed to cause a mattress to need frequent replacing. 

The result? Selling more mattresses more frequently to the same people.

It really has been a boon for the industry, but a nightmare for the consumer.

Even now, few people know that the memory foam is a problem.

So much money is spent advertising it as though it were the best thing since sliced bread.

 

Had you added a latex topper when it was new, all this would have been prevented.

The latex topper would have created a barrier between you and the memory foam.

The memory foam would not have been able to react to your body heat.

Now, it’s too late for that.

 

Memory foam consists of 61 different chemicals.

Some of those chemicals, like formaldehyde and benzene, are toxic and off gas their toxicity....as if the poor quality weren’t bad enough...adding insult to injury.

 

Of course, you couldn’t have known all this 6 years ago.

You, naturally, operated under the assumption that the quality you had experienced with the Holly Springs would continue with your next Sealy mattress.

 

We had been a Sealy/S&F dealer when Tempurpedic bought both companies.

We stopped selling those brands at that time because we already knew how bad memory foam is. So, we had to go shopping at the industry trade shows to find high quality alternatives

 

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

After several years, with each of us weighing more than 200 lbs. this mattress is still in like new condition.

The upholstery is Natural Talalay Latex. Latex is and has been the best upholstery material for the last 100 years.

Latex is the antithesis of memory foam in every way.

 

That mattress is the Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush.

This mattress comes with white glove delivery, which includes set up in your bedroom, removal of your old mattress and all packaging materials.

Delivery is free and there’s no sales tax.

Which Mattress is Better, Latex or Innerspring with Latex?

Sheri writes:

 

Hi Pete,

Which is a better type of mattress--all latex or innerspring w/ latex?

Thanks, Sheri

 

Hi Sheri,

If only it were that simple!

There are so many good and bad choices on either side of that isle...almost like standing at the podium looking out over the entire congressional body...only with more good choices than you have there.

 

An all latex mattress is more expensive than an innerspring...even one that is upholstered with latex.

An all latex mattress has always been considered the best you can buy, due to the longevity of latex and the longevity of the comfort that latex provides.

 

Name brand innerspring mattress don't use latex to upholster their mattresses. 

They use memory foam, which has proven itself to be the worst material ever invented for use in a mattress.

You'll find that last statement to be in stark contrast to what you'll hear from salespeople at most stores.

 

An All Latex mattress will work just fine for many people. 

For those with disc related back problems, that may or may not be the case....depending on your weight.

Generally, a disc issue, such as Herniated Discs, DDD (Degenerative Disc Disease), and bulging discs....even some scoliosis patients, will require the upward support of an innerspring mattress.

The severity of the problem in conjunction with body weight are the factors to consider when making that decision.

For instance, if the problem is mild and the person with it is reasonably light in weight, then an all latex mattress could be just fine.

The greater the severity and the heavier the person is, it's more likely that they will require an innerspring.

But even then, you'll want that innerspring to be upholstered with latex.

Latex is thee best upholstery material on the planet...and has been so for the last 100 years.

The best we carry...the best I could find when shopping at the trade shows, is Natura of Canada.

Their Greenspring line uses a precompressed, individually pocketed coil system.

The coils are made of double tempered steel and the upholstery is Natural Talalay Latex.

We sleep on the Ultra Plush model, at home...still like new after more than 4.5 years, with each of us over 200 lbs.

That line of mattresses, shown here:

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

The Bourdolay model in plush, is the most popular of their all latex models.

Here, too, the latex is Natural Talalay.

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.

https://themattressexpert.com/liberty-ultra-plush/

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 Double Sided Flippable Mattresses | The Mattress Expert From The Wolf Company we have to offer Old Fashioned Quality Two-Sided, Flippable Mattresses…at a reasonable price. themattressexpert.com

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.

This Mattress is Toast After Only 2 Years.

Matthew writes:

 

Hello Peter,  

I’d like to replace my mattress.  

I had one that lasted something like 20 years. 

I replaced it and this mattress is toast after only 2 years.  

I saw comments online that made me feel you would have good advice. 

What kind of information do you need from me to guide me to the right purchase I can make with you?   

Thank you very much, Matthew 

 

Hi Matthew,

It's like stepping out of a time warp, to find that everything has changed.

22 years ago, it was nearly impossible to buy a bad mattress.

Today, quite the opposite is true.

This is the information I'll need to make a recommendation:

The ages, sizes (heights and weights), and a list of all physical ailments of the people who will be using the mattress.

Thanks, Pete

 

Thank you sir. 

It’s just me. I’m just north of 300, 6’2”, 45

My back isn’t bad but if I sleep wrong for several days in a row my hamstrings get ultra tight. 

It pulls my back and I’m out for the count until I see a chiropractor.  

I have sleep apnea.  Sleeping great is my favorite thing in the whole world so I love a very comfy bed.    

So, if I can get that kind of comfort with a bed that would last 5 to maybe 10 years I’d be grateful for your advice.  

Thanks, Matthew

Hi Matthew,

Today’s name brand mattresses don’t last long under average body weight.

For a big man, you need something stronger.

Since your mattress is only a couple/3 years old, it isn’t likely that you’ll need to replace your foundation.

 

I carry two comfortable mattresses at two price points.

The more expensive is better than the lesser expensive one.

But, both are a lot better than most mattresses sold at stores.

 

The biggest problem with most of today’s mattresses, is the memory foam.

Memory foam is about 20 years old and has proven to be the worst upholstery material ever invented.

It’s sole purpose is to cause a mattress to need frequent replacing.

All of the name brands have been sold to investors, who place profits above quality.

 

Your old mattress had no memory foam, which is why it lasted so long.

The key to a successful mattress purchase is in avoiding mattresses made with memory foam.

 

However, the mattresses I’m recommending are upholstered with latex.

Latex is and has been the highest quality upholstery material for the last 100 years.

Not only is the upholstery so much higher in quality, the coils are made of double tempered steel.

Together, they provide support, comfort and longevity...even under a big man.

 

The first arrives via FedEx. The 2nd comes with white glove delivery.

An Inexpensive Natural Latex Mattress.

Lilith writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I believe you when you say that Latex mattresses are the best you can buy. 

However, some of the prices are enough to give my hubby a coronary. 

After reading much of your blogs and website, I know to ask where the latex comes from. 

Most of what seems to be inexpensive, does in fact, originate in China.

We are reasonably young and fit, (mid 30s...average size). 

I like a softer feel, while my husband is ok with anything that makes me happy.

Please, make me happy, without me having to call an ambulance for my poor hubby.

Lilith

 

Hi Lilith,

May I suggest a compromise...an innerspring mattress upholstered with natural latex.

The Natura of Canada Greenspring is what we sleep on, at home.

Their Ultra Plush model is very comfy.

Hip, Back Pain from a 'diy' Mattress.

Rose writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I have three mattresses I switch depending on my location.

 

1 - I have a 'diy' mattress in a travel trailer I use over winter (3 mo last winter and abt 2 now. 

It consists of hard board base over a crawl space, then 5" dense foam, 2" med dense and then 3" soft latex. 

I call it diy because it's what I came up with to fit the available space. It would be like a short full size.

 

2 - Over summer, I alternately sleep on a select comfort (firm setting).

 

3 - I also sometime go to a firm sealy posturepedic.

 

I've tried combinations of the latex, a 2" memory foam and a 2" gel pad on each.

But, it all adds up to the same frustration. 

On any of them, I wake every few hours with pressure pain at the hip joint.

I also get pain shooting from my back, down the outside of my thigh, to my knee on the side I'm lying on.

 

I'm a side sleeper, 5'4" and moderately overweight. What suggestions do you have?

Thanks, Rose

 

 

Hi Rose,

You have worn discs in the small of your back.

The vertebrae are pinching a nerve, which is sending pain around your hip and down your leg.

The medical term for this is, Sciatica.

 

I'm recommending a mattress that uses an individually pocketed coil unit, which is designed to contour to the shape of your body, and maintain the natural alignment of your spine.

THIS, will relieve that pain.

The coils are made of double tempered steel, which is good for durability and longevity.

The latex upholstery provides long lasting comfort....and contains NO Memory Foam.

 

Despite all the hype to the contrary, memory foam is the worst upholstery material ever invented.

It is the source of your difficulty.

Simmons Beautyrest Adamsville Mattress for a First Big Boy Bed.

Alana writes:

 

Hi Pete,

We purchased the Simmons Beautyrest Adamsville Plush Firm ET mattress (full) in 2012, from you.

This was for our toddler’s move to his first big boy bed. He loves it and we love how well it has lasted.

We now need a second mattress for younger son's big boy bed.

But, it seems that the Adamsville has been discontinued. 

What do you recommend now as the best kids mattress?

Thanks Alana

 

Hi Alana,

Your Simmons Beautyrest Adamsville has no memory foam in it....which is why it was such a good choice.

Today, all Simmons Beautyrest mattresses are upholstered with memory foam.

So, let me recommend a much better made mattress, and at a reasonable price.

The Wolf Adara mattress what I'm recommending for your son. My granddaughter is growing up on this mattress.

It uses the same type of coil system as is used in the Beautyrest mattresses.

The coils are stronger and the upholstery is latex...no memory foam.

Latex is and has been the very best upholstery material for the last 100 years.

It's better than the poly foam in your Adamsville.

Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattress for Spinal Fusions.

Nancy writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I have been looking for a new mattress and have tried out too many. 

A friend recommended you and The Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattress, which they bought from you. 

They purchased the ultra plush model. 

 

I have had two spinal fusions and I need something that is not going to sag. 

I tried their ultra plush model, and it felt great.

My concern is that the ultra plush will sag like our old one did, within a short period of time.

Thanks for any info you can give me.

Nancy

 

Hi Nancy,

The Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattresses are made of extremely high quality components. 

The high coil count, the coils made of double tempered steel, the Natural Talalay Latex and NO Memory Foam combine to make these mattresses more supportive, more comfortable and much longer lasting that any of the

Name Brand mattress. 

To give you an example, my wife and I weight in excess of 200 lbs.

We have been sleeping on the Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush mattress for more than 4 years.

And despite our sizes, this mattress remains in like new condition.

 

Unlike all the memory foam filled mattresses you'll find at most stores, Natura Talalay Latex doesn't sag.

Latex is and has been the best upholstery material for the last 100 years.

Despite all the advertising and hype to the contrary, memory foam has proven to be the worst upholstery material ever invented, over its 20 year history.

 

If the term 'ultra plush' concerns you, there are three firmer models in the Natura of Canada line of mattresses.

Here is a link to those mattresses:

These mattress come with free white glove delivery and there's no sales tax.

Delivery includes set-up in your bedroom and removal of your old mattress.
