Natura organic latex mattress.

Bruce writes:

 

Hi Pete,

We currently own an old Natura organic latex mattress, and am in the market for another.

I've been looking at them on your website. I have a couple questions.

 

- what is the difference between eco-revive and eco-sanctuary?

- we have a king bed; on our current Natura mattress we were able to do a different topper on each side, (one soft, one firm) is that still possible?

- are you currently shipping to U.S (Washington, DC?)

 

Thanks, Bruce

 

Hi Bruce,

The Sanctuary is softer, using softer latex, than the Revive.

You can add a separate topper to any mattress.

Toppers come is plush and firm, so 2 different twin-xl toppers will achieve that different feel for each side.

These mattresses come with white glove delivery.

Delivery includes setup in your bedroom and removal of all packaging materials.

Delivery is free and there’s no sales tax throughout the US & Canada.

A latex Topper for a Sealy Venetian Mattress.

Joann writes:

 

Hello Pete,

I have been looking through my email to find a mattress topper recommendation but I can’t find one.  

I’d like to purchase a mattress topper and make sure I get the one that is right for me.

I did purchase the Sealy Venetian mattress that I originally wrote to you about.  

It hasn’t changed my level of sleep comfort.  

I expect that sometime in the next couple of years I’ll be purchasing a good quality mattress from you.  

For now, I’d like to start with the topper.

What information is needed to help me decide which topper will be right for me?

Thank you for your help, Joann

 

Hi Joann,

If you’re getting a latex topper for your Venetian, you’ll want to first flip that mattress over to it’s firmer side before adding the topper.

In doing so, you’ll experience better support for your new sleeping surface.

The Suite Sleep Organic Latex Topper in Soft is the highest quality latex available.

2” is comfortable, but 3” is more so.

Here’s a link to those latex toppers.

Thanks, Pete

Hi Pete,

Thanks!  

This might be a dumb question, but I’m not afraid to ask dumb questions.  

It’s a one-sided mattress – is it okay to flip it over so the pillow top is on the bottom?

I’ll take a look at the Suite Sleep topper.

Thank you, Joann

 

Hi Joann,

Almost all mattresses are made one sided.

Adding the latex topper to the top of the mattress usually ends up conforming to the worn surface.

Flipping a one sided mattress before adding the topper provides firmer, more even support for the topper. It’s a neat trick that works well.

Of course, there’s nothing to prevent you from trying it both ways.

I’m betting you’ll like the way the topper feels on the flip side, better. Most people do.

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

A Mattress like my old Simmons Beautyrest Anniversary mattress.

Sarah writes:

 

Hello Pete,

I was so happy to come across your website while searching for information.  

I used to have an amazing mattress. It was the Simmons Beautyrest Anniversary pillowtop model from 2011.  

I had it for 10 years and thought it might be time to replace it this summer.

 

I had worked for the 4 Seasons Hotel in 2015 and slept in employee housing and liked their mattress and ordered one but it wasn't amazing support (only decent) and it heated up like crazy (memory foam). 

(It was made by Simmons, but I think it has changed since I used to work there)

 

I tried the Stearns and Foster (Estate, medium firmness, I think) and I absolutely loved the feel of the support underneath but also was way too hot at night (memory foam) and would sink down and I would have to move to a new area every few hours to be cool and comfortable again.

 

The way you described the memory foam heating up and also cradling your body (in non-supportive ways) due to it reacting and holding the body heat, was right on.

 

I super wish Stearns and Foster made the supportive coils with a different top section (not memory foam) I contacted a stearns and foster rep and they said all their beds have memory foam.

 

Next, I tried all natural talalay latex from the Oregon Mattress Company and at least it sleeps cooler but not super cool and the pillow top model I got is soft... and nice.. but just not quite right. I feel achy and too warm.

 

I realize this is getting ridiculous and I wish it weren't so difficult to find a comfortable bed for me.  

I finally am sleeping on "Purple" their original with a polyester filled topper (because Purple is pretty firm but sleeps cooler).

I sleep ok right now (decent support, decent temperature: not waking up achy and not waking up too hot) but I dream about the bed I used to have that I LOVED sleeping in and would wake up feeling so refreshed.  

I don't look forward to sleeping or going to bed anymore.  I just do because I need to.

 

Are you at all familiar with what the Simmons Beautyrest Anniversary model had in it and could you recommend something similar?

 

If not, could you recommend something for my situation?  I tend to prefer coils instead of all foam.  

I did really like the supportive feeling underneath my Simmons Beautyrest. 

 

Thank you for your time and advice.  I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Sarah

 

Hi Sarah,

All of our innerspring mattresses are similarly made to the old Simmons Beautyrest.

The specifications exceed those of their old Anniversary Beautyrest.

Most like that mattress is the Wolf Tulah Plush Eurotop Mattress.

Click on this link to view specifications and prices.

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/wolf-mattresses/wolf-hybrid-mattress/

 

This mattress contains no memory foam.

There is no chemical off gassing.

The coil count is a bit higher than what was used in the Anniversary Beautyrest and the coils are stronger, made of double tempered steel.

(The steel used by Simmons is raw steel…not tempered at all).

The upholstery is better, as well.

Only polyurethane foam was used in the Anniversary Beautyrest.

The Tulah has poly and latex foams.

 

Several of my family members are sleeping on this mattress, including my

mother-in-law…who says she is sleeping without pain for the first time in years.

 

Shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

Simmons Beautyrest Extra Firm Mattress is too firm. Latex Topper?

Marie writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I’m 140 lbs., sleeping on a Simmons Beautyrest World Class extra firm mattress from pre-memory foam days. It’s still super firm after years of use and it’s too hard. 

I was considering buying a Wolf mattress, but found some bad reviews about them online.

Then I saw where you often recommend a latex mattress topper for a too firm mattress.

Which latex topper do you recommend to soften the feel... 2 “ or 3”? 

I like a dense feel solid feel.

I have lower lumbar stiffness in the morning in my sixties.

Thanks, Marie

 

Hi Marie,

Click on this link to our Toppers page.

https://themattressexpert.com/mattress-toppers-latex-more/

Suite Sleep is our best quality, purest latex. They ship right away.

The Pure Bliss is blended latex and an excellent value. They’re taking 5 weeks.

 

Both will make a noticeable difference, the 3” more so than the 2”.

Softest…Suite Sleep Vita Talalay Latex

Next…Suite Sleep Organic Latex

Next…Pure Bliss

 

Wolf makes a lot of different types of mattresses.

Many of them are upholstered with memory foam…hence, the bad reviews.

We carry only 3 Wolf mattresses.

None of them are upholstered with memory foam.

We’ve sold many hundreds over the 8 years we’ve been selling them.

I haven’t had even one complaint in all these years.

 

It’s the memory foam that you need to avoid.

Learning the specifications of the mattress you’re considering buying is the only way to shop effectively.

 

Everything we sell comes with free delivery and there’s no sales tax.

None of our mattresses have any memory foam in them.

 

If you do need a new mattress, the Wolf Tulah Plush Eurotop is my recommendation.

Click on this link to view specifications and prices:

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/wolf-mattresses/wolf-hybrid-mattress/

Several of my family members sleep on that mattress, including mom-in-law.

The support it the same as Simmons Beautyrest, but with stronger coils…and upholstered with latex and poly foams…what Simmons used before they were sold…pre memory foam era upholstery.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

Equivalent mattress to the Simmons Beautyrest Lisbon plush.

Gail writes:

 

Hi Pete

Can you tell me what an equivalent mattress to the Simmons Beautyrest Lisbon plush that was made in 2007?

Thanks, Gail

 

Hi Gail,

There is no equivalent from Simmons.

Your mattress is upholstered with polyurethane foam...and maybe some latex.

Today's Beautyrest mattresses are upholstered with memory foam.

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

 

Simmons, along with all of the other top name brands, has been sold to investors.

Memory foam is what is used to recoup their investment and turn a profit.

In 2007, it was all about quality. In 2021, it's all about profit.

None of today's name brand mattresses are worth buying, due to the memory foam.

 

The thing that makes a Beautyrest so comfortable, is the individually pocketed coils.

They contour to the shape of the body and maintain the natural alignment of the spine.

A good replacement for your Beautyrest is The Wolf Pocketed Coil Hybrid Tulah Plush Eurotop Mattress.

Click on this link to view specifications and prices:

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/wolf-mattresses/wolf-hybrid-mattress/

 

This mattress uses an individually pocketed coil system, is upholstered with poly and latex foams...

and contains NO Memory Foam.

Hands and feet numbness on a Tempurpedic mattress.

Orlando writes:

 

Hello Pete,

I have been experiencing hands and feet numbness for past 2 years.  

I have been sleeping on a Tempurpedic mattress, thinking it would be wonderful for any back issues.  

I am 73 and thought maybe it was just “my age” and circulation issues.  

Then my daughter took a long nap on my bed and she experienced hands and feet numbness, too.

So, I started looking into this.

What do you say?

Thanks, Orlando

 

Hi Orlando,

The problem is the memory foam on top of your mattress.

Flip it over and put the memory foam on the down side, where it can no longer do you any more harm.

Then, soften the surface with a Pure Bliss 3” Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper.

Shown here:

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

Shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.

Until your new latex topper arrives, use whatever you have handy to make it comfortable....but flip that mattress over today.

Two Mattresses, a king size for my husband and I, a queen size for our son.

Diane writes:

 

Hi Pete,

We need two mattresses.

We need a king size for my husband and I, who are of average size.

We also need a queen size mattress for our son, who is a big guy.

What would you recommend?

Thanks, Diane

 

Hi Diane,

I have a couple of options for you, so we’ll start with the best.

This is the same mattress my wife and I sleep on at home.

The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush...uses an individually pocketed coil unit with a very high coil count and double tempered steel...providing firm contouring support that maintains the natural alignment of the spine. The upholstery is Plush Natural Talalay Latex, so a separate latex topper isn’t necessary.

Click on this link to view specifications and prices:

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

 

This mattress is available with a matching foundation, and comes with white glove delivery, which includes setup in your bedroom and removal of all packing materials.

 

Similarly made, is the Wolf Hybrid Mattresses.

The coil count is not as high but the steel is still double tempered.

The upholstery is latex for the Adara model and latex/poly foam for the Tulah model.

I’m recommending the Adara for your son, as it is the stronger of the two.

If this price point is better for your master bedroom, go with the Tulah for you and your husband.

The Tulah is the more comfortable of the two, and a good choice for your sizes.

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/wolf-mattresses/wolf-hybrid-mattress/

These mattresses are not available with a matching foundation and they ship via ups.

For any of these, delivery is free and there’s no sales tax.

I need a heavy duty mattress. Budget is a concern.

Carolyn writes:

 

Hi Peter,  

I'm a returning, happy customer.  

In early 2016, I took delivery of a Cal King Simmons BR Black Ava with a 3" latex topper.  

It was so perfect that when I had to move, less than a year later, I couldn't take a Cal. King set with me.

I gifted that to my daughter and her new husband who is 6' 3", and they still love that set so much!  

That's the good news.  

 

The bad news is I had an accident in late 2016 that resulted in mobility issues.

I now have extreme swelling in both of my legs (lymph nodes missing behind my knees).  

I was gifted a Queen size Beautyrest, Recharge World Class, Keaton Plush Pillow Top Mattress.

I bought a 3" latex topper for $319, but I haven't been comfortable in the bed since day one.

I don't think the latex topper is sturdy enough to hold my weight up from the mattress.

 

In October, 2021, I am moving to Bellevue, Washington to be close to my daughter and grandbabies.

I need to buy a new mattress set and have it delivered directly to my new studio apartment in Bellevue.  

Budget is a concern, but I also need to be able to sleep as well as I did in the 2016 set I purchased from you.  

I need a heavy duty mattress.  

Thank you in advance for your recommendations,

Thanks, Carolyn

 

Hi Carolyn,

I’m sorry to hear of your accident.

It’s a pity you had to give up your mattress.

Your old Black Beautyrest had a much stronger coil unit that used in your World Class.

 

My recommendation is to replace that mattress with a stronger one.

Cheap latex is made in China, where they use fillers. The result is a poor quality product.

Order a Pure Bliss 3" Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper:

shown here:

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

 

I have a mattress that will do the job and, it’s reasonably priced.

Put the Pure Bliss latex topper on a Wolf Pocketed Coil/Latex Hybrid Adara Plush Mattress.

Sleeping on a Silk and Snow Classic mattress.

Kay writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I sure could use some honest advice. I am currently sleeping on a Silk and Snow Classic mattress. 

Unfortunately, it is too firm for me. 

After reading independent reviews, too late, apparently this mattress is not recommended for those who weigh under 130 pounds. I weigh 115.

I suffer from 24/7 lower body pain and need something that is both soft, and yet won't be resistive (as some memory foam is) when I change my position - which I have to do quite frequently. 

I'm also chemical sensitive and trying to find a mattress without off-gassing. 

My budget is under $1000.

 

Thanks so much for any light you can shed on this daunting process.

Warm regards, Kay

 

Hi Kay,

I have the ideal mattress for you.

The Wolf Tulah Plush Eurotop Mattress uses an individually pocketed coil system, which contours to the shape of the body, maintaining the natural alignment of the spine.

This mattress is upholstered with Allergen Free Latex and Plant Based Polyurethane foams.

There is NO Memory Foam in this mattress...NO Chemical Off Gassing.

It provides excellent support, surface comfort and longevity...and, within your price range.
