Hello Pete,
My husband and I are very big people in need of a durable mattress.
We currently have a queen size Simmons Beautyrest mattress set. It didn't last a year.
What do you recommend that is firm enough to hold us, but also comfortable?
Thank you, Eva
Hi Eva,
Over the decades, the Bonnell Coil system...large, heavy coils all tied together has always been the strongest and most durable type of mattress.
While normally hard to find, we have such a mattress available.
The Wolf Adrian Mattress is one of the very few mattresses, like that, available today.
Click on this link to view specifications and pricing:
When you buy a mattress that is comfortable, it's the comfort layers that wear quickly under heavy weight.
That causes you to need a new mattress frequently...especially if the upholstery material is memory foam.
The most durable upholstery material is pure latex foam....and has been for the last 100 years.
The Adrian Mattress provides the firm support you need.
Add to that a Suite Sleep 2" Medium Soft Organic Latex Mattress Topper for surface comfort.
Shown here:
In several years from now, all you'll have to replace is the topper...and NOT the mattress.
The Magniflex KD Foundation you'll see priced with the Adrian Mattress is also extremely strong.
That will withstand a total weight of 1200 lbs.
I recommend getting that with the mattress.

Thanks, Pete
You Should Know
Using an old box spring to support any new mattress will cause premature wear and void the manufacturer’s warranty.
A waterproof mattress protector will extend the life of a mattress by keeping the upholstery materials clean and dry.
