Natura Tropical Plush Eurotop, to Replace a Sealy SpringFree Fairway Dunes Latex Mattress.

Hi Pete,

I currently have a queen size Sealy SpringFree 100% latex core named Fairway Dunes. 

Is there a similar current model you would recommend. 

Not sure if it was considered a firm or plush or what, but it has served me well. 

Thank you, Marie

Hi Marie,

Sealy was purchased by Tempurpedic in 2013. Shortly after, they added memory foam to all of their mattresses.

The Fairway Dunes was a plush pillowtop, consisting of a synthetic latex core and topped with polyurethane foam.

The mattress that best matches the initial feel, is made entirely of Natural Talalay Latex.

That would be The Natura of Canada Tropical Plush Eurotop Latex Mattress.

A Mattress in The UK for Upper and Lower Back Pain.

Kelly writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I have an upper back injury which cannot be fixed and must be managed. 

This involved the main ventricular nerve from the brain to be cut off from blood supply, causing paralysis from the neck down. 

I’ve suffered extreme muscle atrophy in my right shoulder muscles and peck muscle.

 

I was being taken into hospital due to either paralysis or pain.

It was so bad I couldn’t move quite frequently, and then we realized, our bed was almost 10 years old and probably wasn’t helping.

Wanting the best in support for my issue I bought a Tempur original elite! 

My upper back pain has practically gone, the best it’s been since before the accident. 

However, I have a new pain, somewhere I’ve never experienced pain in my 33 years... lower back pain! just above my butt! 

I figured this could be the mattress being too firm, so I purchased a softer one, the cloud, to try and get total relief. 

I’m 5ft and 8st 12lb. After two days, I was crippled in pain throughout my entire body. 

I was back to not being able to walk, my right side paralyzed, so back to the original. 

I feel in one breath it’s the best mattress I’ve had for my upper back injury, but in another, I feel I’m swapping pain to a different area. 

Maybe memory foam isn’t the correct setup for me. 

Clearly even though my size dictates I should use a soft mattress with support, that doesn’t agree with my injuries from 14 years ago. 

So I’ve now purchased a Dunlopillo latex orchid mattress to see if this may work better. 

I’m in the UK, so I’m not sure if you can recommend anything. 

The only other mattress I’ve tried with potential is the Somnus Alnwick, I believe spring, latex, mohair and wool is the setup. 

I like the comfort of the medium tension but have learnt what I like the feel of and what suits my injury are very different, so better to try a firm tension. 

Very difficult buying mattresses due to them not allowing returns for hygiene reasons at a lot of stores online.

Any help I’d appreciate if you have any experience of a similar situation and what type of mattress materials help.

Thank you, Kelly

 

 

Hi Kelly,

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

Memory foam wears quickly and produces pain for most people, before too long after purchasing.

Step #1-Avoid mattresses made with memory foam.

 

In your case, an all foam mattress won't have the "pushback" support your spine requires.

The Somnus Alnwick mattress, made of coils and latex upholstery sounds like a good choice for your issues.

The coils are better support and latex is and has been the best upholstery material for the last 100 years.

 

Before buying that mattress, try it again. Go when you have plenty of time and take your pillow with you.

Spend time in each of your sleeping positions.

Keep in mind that a new mattress will initially feel a bit firmer than the floor sample.

It should break in within a couple of weeks. 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

An all latex mattress is best.

Hi Pete,

My wife is a side sleeper and I'm a back/side sleeper.

Hi Richard,

The best buy in an all latex mattress comes from Natura of Canada.

I recommend the Bourdolay Plush model for good support and surface comfort.

NO “All Foam” Mattress is the right choice for a disc related back problem.

Judy writes:

 

Hi Pete,

We are looking at an all foam king size mattress that has 9” high density foam base layer plus 3” firm top layer of latex, 

and made with CertiPUR-US foam.

The mattress ticking is soft and breathable with sustainable fibers including Tencel and Repreve.  

It is a one sided mattress with a ten year warranty.  

I love a firm mattress due to some previous disc problems in my back.   

The mattress is made in USA by Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams. Have you had any experience with this mattress?

 

I have totally enjoyed your website, and learning all sorts of information about mattresses.

Thanks, Judy

 

 

Hi Judy,

I’ve never heard of that brand.

A moot point, really.

There is NO “All Foam” mattress that is the right choice for a disc related back problem.

None, not even the best of them, provide the necessary push back support against the spine needed to relieve that kind of back pain, long term.

A pre-compressed, individually pocketed unit does the best job of support.

The best we carry is the Natura of Canada Greenspring.

Pure Talalay Bliss Natural Latex Mattress for Very Big Man.

Tess writes:

 

Hi Pete,

My husband is a very big man, 6' 6" and a little over three hundred pounds. I am 5' 3".

I like a soft mattress and he prefers firm. We now have a sleep number bed that has not held up under his weight. 

We been looking at Tempurpedic, but we are willing to look at other brands. 

Any help would be appreciated. 

Thank you, Tess

 

Hi Tess,

What you have and what you're considering are the two most advertised products. Both are mistakes...even at average body weight.

You're following the hype and it is a costly road to travel.

Memory foam is a horrible product...made of toxic chemicals that off-gasses toxic fumes. 

Not only is it a health hazard to every living creature in your home, it performs poorly...needing to be replaced in very short order....just to add insult to injury.

If you want an all foam mattress, then go with something that will provide better support and comfort, and last for many years....and, without poisoning

the air you breathe.

Natural Latex is and has been the best you can buy for nearly a century.

Here is a link to the top brand of natural, chemical free, latex...Pure Talalay Bliss.

The Nutrition model will provide that nice balance of firm support and a comfortable sleeping surface.

Here's a link to those mattresses:

Two Sided Flippable Mattress for a child, and one for a 400 pound Adult Guest.

Lia writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I need a mattress for my daughter. She's 5. Was looking for something two sided that's flippable. 

Also, we have another family member who weighs 400 lbs and wanted something for guest bedroom that won't get dented. 

Thanks, Lia

 

Hi Lia,

We do carry nice quality two sided mattresses....reasonably priced and ideal for a child's mattress.

Of them, the Brolynn Plush model is the one I recommend for your daughter...providing good support, comfort and longevity.

Normally, that same would be what I would recommend for a guest bedroom, as well.

However, you needs are extreme.

The only type of mattress that will hold a 400 lb person is all natural latex.

Most economical is the EverEden, Pure, All Natural Latex Mattresses

Shown here:

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/all-natural-latex/evereden-latex-models/

Of the 3 models, I recommend the 8", using a 6" Firm Vytex Dunlop Latex Core with a 2" Medium Vytex Dunlop Latex Top.

 

Both mattresses come with free delivery, and there's no sales tax.

Sealy or Simmons Beautyrest Mattress for My 5 Yr Old Son?

Melissa writes:

 

Hi Pete, 

Upon doing my research for a new mattress, for my 5 yr old son, I noticed you often recommend the Simmons Beautyrest. 

When shopping, we were pointed in the direction of a Sealy firm mattress for him. 

But I am not happy with that choice, as it has memory foam.         

Thanks for your help.  Melissa

 

Hi Melissa,

The Simmons Beautyrest mattresses, also use memory foam, but there is a difference.

The memory foam, Simmons uses, is cured. It does not off gas the toxic chemicals from which memory foam is made.

This is not so for Sealy mattresses. The acrid smell that a Sealy mattress has when new, is the off gassing of those chemicals...61 different chemicals, in all.

You'd be subjecting your child to a health hazard. These toxic chemicals attack your respiratory system.

 

The pre-compressed individually pocketed coils, in the Simmons Beautyrest mattresses, contour to the shape of the body and maintain the spine's natural alignment.

This is excellent support for any body. It's especially valuable to a growing child, as this coil unit continually does so throughout his growing years.

Being a 5 year old, he doesn't weigh very much. But, you might want to add a latex topper when he gets to be heavier, which will add years of life to the mattress.

Adding the latex topper when he is 10 years old, will allow you to keep that mattress until he is grown and gone.

 

The mattress I'm recommending is: The Simmons Beautyrest Silver Series Great Lakes Cove in Luxury Firm.

And while the latex topper will become necessary in 5 years from now, buying it now would provide a very comfortable sleeping surface.

Recommendation, Simmons Beautyrest Innerspring Mattress and Latex Topper.

Zoe writes:

 

Hi Pete,

We have a natural latex mattress that we were never happy with. 

And now, 2 years into owning it, I downright hate it I wake up with major soreness in my back (mid back AND low back), and have major neck pain. 

My husband never liked it to begin with It was too soft for him.  

After 4 days away on a business trip, sleeping on various hotels, my problems with back/neck were gone, only to return the first night I came home.

 

So, we are looking for a new mattress. Here is our info—looking for a recommendation:

·         I am 5 foot 1, 115 lb; my husband is 6 foot 1, 165 lb. We are in our late 30’s-early 40’s.

·         He likes very firm mattresses. I think I like less firm, but as it turns out soft is majorly bothering my back/neck

·         I am a side and stomach sleeper; he is a back sleeper.

 

I saw you recommend people get a firm innerspring mattress and a latex removable pillowtop. 

Which specific mattress would you recommend for us? 

Thanks, Zoe

 

Hi Zoe,

An all latex mattress is the very best of all the "All Foam" mattresses.

Even so, NO "All Foam" is right for anyone with disc related back problems.

Without the "Push-back" support of an innerspring, disc related back problems are only made worse.

 

An all latex mattress is a terrific product, otherwise...Great for muscle strain and a fantastic mattress to grow up on.

But, It doesn't work for you and many older people, as disc wear is common as we age.

 

Many hotels feature the Simmons Beautyrest Mattress.

The pre-compressed, individually pocketed coils push up against you and provide contouring support that maintains the natural alignment of your spine.

It order to strike that nice balance of firm support for him and a comfortable bed for both of you, the recommendation is:

The Simmons Beautyrest Platinum Gibson Grove in Luxury Firm.

Sealy Posturepedic SpringFree River Crest Latex Mattress.

Jean writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I found you online and am hoping you can help me order a Sealy Posturepedic SpringFree River Crest queen latex mattress.

I bought one in 2009 and have it since. I would like another one, but am unable to find it and have been told was changed.

I'm told that it's available with a  Stearns and  Foster, but can't find that either.  

Can you help?

Thanks so much!

Jean 

 

Hi Jean,

Quite right on all counts. The entire Sealy/S&F latex line was changed after those brands were purchased by Tempurpedic.

That mattress was comprised of "Smart Latex", which is synthetic latex...and layers of poly foam on top.

Today, their S&F latex mattresses are laced with memory foam, which greatly reduced the quality.  

Also, the memory foam off gasses the toxic chemicals, from which it's made.

 

We offer all latex mattresses, with no poly foam and no memory foam.

These mattresses are made by Pure Talalay Bliss, which has been the leading manufacturer of latex mattresses since the 1940s..

I would suggest their "Nutrition" model as an appropriate substitute for the River Crest....the closest in feel to the River Crest.

Here is the link to that mattress.
