Hi Pete,
I'm hoping you can help us.
My husband and I are very heavy people.
He's 6' 4" and weighs 350 lbs.
I'm 5' 10" and weigh a little over 300 lbs.
We can't afford having to buy a new mattress every year, as we have done for the last 5 years.
Before that, we had a 15 year old Stearns and Foster mattress.
I just can't get over the lack of quality these past 5 mattresses have, including S&F.
Is there a very high quality mattress that will accommodate our weights and be comfortable over time?
Thanks, Debbie
Hi Debbie,
Stearns and Foster had been 'The Cadillac of the Industry' for decades.
That changed in 2013, when they were purchased by Tempurpedic.
The reduction in quality is due to the memory foam upholstery used in most of today's mattresses.
You can no longer rely on any of the name brands to produce the quality they once had produced.
All of them have been sold and all of them are upholstering their mattresses with memory foam.
For the quality you're looking for, we offer a line of mattresses that are made in Canada.
The Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattresses are very high quality, and what we sleep on, at home.
We aren't your sizes, both of us over 200 lbs.
We have the Ultra Plush model that is now more than 7.5 years old.
It is, still, in like new condition.
Your additional weight will require a different choice of products.
My recommendation is the Natura of Canada Greenspring in "Firm".
The Natura Greenspring series combines the natural elements, such as wool and latex.
But it has a specially designed pocketed coil system to provide your body with extra support.
The strength of the double tempered steel coils and the firm latex upholstery will combine to provide very long lasting support to accommodate your weights...over many years.
For surface comfort, add a Suite Sleep 2" Soft Organic Latex Topper.
Shown here:
This latex topper does a couple of things.
1) It provides long lasting surface comfort like nothing else available on the planet.
2) Because latex is the most resilient of all the foams, it will absorb much of your body weight, which adds to the longevity of the mattress.
3) Because it's removable, it allows you to replace only the topper, as the years go by, without having to buy a new mattress nearly as frequently.
The mattress comes with white glove delivery, which includes set-up in your bedroom and removal of all packing materials.
The latex topper arrives via FedEx
