Neither one of us gets a good night's sleep on a Tempur-Pedic mattress.

Hi Pete,

....HELP??  

Three years ago, my husband and I purchased the Tempur-Pedic split king adjustable bed. 

We have the cool top medium firm.  

Neither one of us gets a good night's sleep on this bed.

It was too expensive for us to ditch, so we continue to get night after night of poor sleep.  

I tried a 2” foam topper on my side to see if that helped but I still didn’t feel comfortable.  

 

Do you have a topper solution?  

I prefer a softer bed, my husband has terrible back issues and prefers a firm mattress.

I anxiously await your answer.

Thanks, Vicki 

 

 

 

Hi Vicki,

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

Fortunately for you, that mattress is not all memory foam.

The memory foam is only on the top.

Flip your mattress over to the high density poly foam side.

Do that today, and you will both sleep better tonight.

 

Use the topper you bought for your side, which I’m guessing is also memory foam, until your latex topper arrives.

I suggest the Pure Bliss 3” Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper.

Shown here:

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

 

This topper provides excellent surface comfort that does not negate the underlying firm support your husband needs for his back.

So, you can get it in a king size, or 2 twin-xl so that the mattress will be the same height on each side, if that’s important to you.

 

Shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.

In the future, your husband’s back requires an innerspring mattress....one with no memory foam upholstery in it.

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

The Suite Sleep Vita Talalay Latex mattress topper is great!

Marie writes:

 

Hi Pete,

Thank you, so much, for everything. The Suite Sleep Vita Talalay Latex mattress topper is great!  

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

 

I noticed though that the one we got only comes in soft. 

I know that from the original order. Is that correct?  

It feels wonderful on the bed but I hope over time it gives the support I was looking for.  

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much for the great customer service,

Marie

 

Hi Marie,

The job of the latex topper is to provide surface comfort.

Support should come from the mattress under it.

Although, latex is resilient enough to do both jobs.

I’m glad you like it. Sleep well.

A Latex Topper for a Simmons Beautyrest Recharge Luxury Firm mattress.

Courtney writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I am 5’7", 140 pounds, and my husband is 6’, 170 pounds. We believe it’s 6-8 years old.

Currently, we have a Simmons Beautyrest Recharge Luxury Firm mattress.

It has indentations on both sides of the mattress where we each sleep, and is higher in the middle.

Both my husband and I suffer from muscle-induced back pain, as well as hip pain from side sleeping.

Would you recommend replacing the mattress or purchasing the Suite Sleep Organic Latex topper?

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

Thanks for your help, Courtney

 

 

Hi Courtney,

It would be a waste of money to put a latex topper on a mattress that is already visibly worn.

The time to add a latex topper to a Simmons Beautyrest mattress, is when it's new.

The latex topper will prevent the premature wear that is common with a Simmons Beautyrest mattress.

 

For similar money, you can have a new mattress with latex in it.

The Wolf Tulah Plush Eurotop mattress is very well made.

It uses the same kind of coil system that’s in your Beautyrest.

The coils in the Tulah are stronger than those used in the Beautyrest.

It provides excellent support and pressure relieving surface comfort and far better longevity than you can get from any Simmons Beautyrest made today.

Pure Bliss Latex Topper for a Duxiana Mattress.

Laureen writes:

 

Hi Pete,

We have a king size Duxiana mattress.  

We’ve had it for almost twenty years and have gone through two mattress toppers.

I don’t want to pay the $2000 Duxiana is charging for a new one.

 

I found your information and am curious about the Pure Bliss Latex mattress toppers you sell.

How do we know the level of firmness of your toppers?

 

Thank you, Laureen

 

Hi Laureen,

My Dux customers, typically, buy the Pure Bliss 3” Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper.

All have been happy.

How do I soften a too firm Sealy Posturepedic mattress?

Elaine writes:

 

Hi Pete,

How do I soften a too firm Sealy Posturepedic mattress?

Following the advice of my doctor, I went out and bought the firmest mattress I could find at the time.

It's been about 3 months and I just can't get comfortable.

My back stopped hurting, as predicted by my physician, but everything else now hurts.

My hips and shoulders, mostly, are in pain.

I'm an average size female and a side sleeper.

I bought a memory foam topper, which helped for about a month.

It made me hot and had a terrible odor.

I found you online, after doing some research and see you recommend a latex topper.

I've read all the glowing reviews and I'm willing to give it a try.

Which one?, is my only question.

Thanks, Elaine

 

Hi Elaine,

A soft latex topper, certainly. 2" of soft latex will help, but the 3" works best for female side sleepers.

It does give better at the shoulder and the hip, relieving the pain at those pressure points.

The Suite Sleep 3" Soft Organic Latex Topper is what we use at home, for my wife's sensitive hip.

That will work for you, as well.

Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattress for a Big, 300 Lb. Man.

Jane writes:

 

Hi Pete,

Last year, you recommended a latex topper to extend the life of our old mattress.  

We purchased a 3” soft topper and are now in the market to purchase a new mattress.

We want your opinion on our options.  

I’ve read about the Natura of Canada Greenspring mattress, which sounds like our best option.

 

My husband is a big man, 6’ tall around 300 lbs.  I’m 5’4 158 lbs.  

He has hip and back pain. I have arthritis, shoulder pain and sciatica that flares up from time to time.  

Right now, I end up rolling into the middle or clinging to the edge which has no support.  

I’m unsure of which to choose, firm or luxury firm.  

 

Thank you for your time and look forward to your recommendations.

Jane

 

Hi Jane,

My recommendation is for the Natura of Canada Greenspring in Firm....adding your latex topper to it for the surface comfort you'll need.

These individually pocketed coils are stronger, made of double tempered steel, and there's a lot of them.

What's more, this mattress contains firm latex foam, which adds to the durability.

Shown here:

https://themattressexpert.com/greenspring-liberty-firm-mattress/

 

This mattress has NO memory foam in it.

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

Delivery is free and there's no sales tax.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

What can I do about a sagging Tempurpedic mattress?

Hi Pete,

What can I do about a

Hi Pete,

What can I do about a sagging Tempurpedic mattress?

This mattress is only 3 years old and sags terribly, after I've been in bed for an hour.

When I get out of bed, it looks fine.

When I complained, they asked me to measure the impression.

But without me being in the mattress, there's very little of an impression.

I've been told that my mattress is normal and they won't exchange it for a new one.

I'm still making monthly payments for this worthless pos!

I can't afford to replace it. Is there anything can I do?

Please HELP!

Georgina

 

Hi Georgina,

What you're experiencing is very common with any memory foam mattress.

They advertise it, and sales people talk about that junk, as if it were the best thing since sliced bread.

The reason?...profit!

It's all about "The Benjamins", to reiterate a recently coined phrase.

 

However, there is a workable, long-term solution to your problem.

The bad part of the mattress, the memory foam, is only on top of the mattress.

Supporting the memory foam, is firm high density polyurethane foam.

 

Step #1, flip the mattress over...putting the memory foam side down, where it can no longer hurt you.

The underside is very firm and may be too firm to sleep on comfortably.

Use whatever you have on hand, like a comforter, to soften it.

 

Step #2, add a Suite Sleep 3" Soft Organic Latex Topper.

This will provide you long term surface comfort that is, by far, higher in quality than memory foam.

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

It sleeps cool and won't allow you to sink. 

The best description of the feel it provides, is one of Floating.

All Simmons Beautyrest Mattresses Have Memory Foam.

Mike writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I've been reading some of your material online. I'm in the market for a new mattress.

I am strongly considering a Simmons Beautyrest Black Mariela Luxury Firm.

I found one, new, for about 1/3 of the new k-series price.  

Your comments about all Simmons Beautyrest mattresses having memory foam, which will only hold up for a few years is a bit frightening.

Does that statement hold true for these top end Black Series models?

Thanks, Mike

 

Hi Mike,

The poor wear of the memory foam does apply to that mattress.

However, there is a way around it.

 

My wife and I home tested a similar Beautyrest Black mattress.

We used a 2” latex topper on it.

After 4 years, everything was still in like new condition.

We gave that to our son and his wife, who have had it for the last 6 years.

They, just recently, replaced the topper, but the mattress remains like new...all thanks to the latex topper.

 

Normally, I would recommend a similarly made mattress from another brand without memory foam in it...a much better value for the money you would have normally paid for a K Series Black Beautyrest.

But, a new Black Beautyrest mattress at 1/3 the price is too good of a buy to pass up.

All you need do, is add a Suite Sleep 2” Soft or Medium Soft Organic Latex Topper.

What mattress will be long lasting and comfortable under a very large man?

Adam writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I am a very large man, 6'5" and weigh 350 lbs.

As you can imagine, I go through mattresses quickly.

They usually remain comfortable for only a few months and are shot within a year's time.

What mattress will be long lasting and comfortable under a man my size?

I sleep alone. I have only myself to consider with this purchase.

Thanks for any help you can provide, Adam

 

Hi Adam,

I have had many customers your size and larger.

Most stores are selling mattresses upholstered with memory foam, which is why they haven't held up well.

High quality components make for a high quality mattress. They're just hard to find.

But this time, you came to the right place.

 

To maximize support, comfort and longevity, I'm recommending a very firm mattress with a plush latex topper.

This sleep system combination will serve you well, and for many years.

The Mattress is the Natura of Canada Greenspring in Firm

Click on this link to view specifications and prices:

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

 

The high coil count, with coils made of double tempered steel, along with the firm latex upholstery combine for an extremely durable mattress...even under a man your size.

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

Add to that mattress, a Suite Sleep 2" or 3" Soft Natural, Organic Latex Mattress Topper, which will provide you with surface comfort and added longevity to the mattress.

Shown here:

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

 

This latex topper will provide surface comfort that remains comfortable for several years.

When that time has passed, all you'll need to replace is the topper.

This is the most cost effect way for a very large person to buy a mattress.

 

The mattress comes with white glove delivery, which includes set-up and removal of all packaging materials.

The latex topper arrives via FedEx.

Shipping, for both, is free and there's no sales tax.

Pure Bliss Latex mattress topper has worked well.

Mary Lou writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I bought a Pure Bliss Latex mattress topper from you, a few years ago.

Your recommendation has worked well.

I need to purchase a second one, for my arthritis.  

I am, now, officially old and can purchase the topper as durable medical equipment on my Medicare Advantage Plan.

But, I can only do so from a company that sells durable medical equipment.

Do you sell to those sorts of companies?

Help, Mary Lou

 

Hi MaryLou,

I’m happy to know you’re satisfied.

It’s the quality of these latex toppers, that insured your satisfaction.
