Mattress purchase‏ - Simmons Beautyrest Black Bray Extra Extra Firm

Keith writes:

Hello,
First I'd like to thank you for creating a site with such useful information, insightful

 content, and wide product offering.
About 5 years ago my wife and I purchased a naturally bobs cotton plush king. It

 was ok for a couple months and then we began waking up with back pain. Sleep was

 terrible and when we did wake up (after tossing and turning all night) it would take 

15 minutes to physically get out of the bed. Our work days were filled with yawns and

 sore muscles for 4+ years. Fast forward to today and I now have placed sheets of 

plywood on top of the box spring, and flipped the one sided mattress so we're sleeping

 on the opposite side. 
After reading through your site it's clear to me now that we should have purchased a

 firm mattress. My wife got in a car accident and has a few herniated discs - her spine

 is completely out of alignment when she sleeps and I would like to get something 

that will work for the both of us. We went down to the local mattress retailer and saw

 a few models including the beauty rest black firm, and the steams and foster estate

 ultra firm. We both decided we love the SF ultra firm mattress and plan to try out other

 extra firm or ultra firm models. 
My wife is 5'3 135lbs and I am 6'1 160lb and we both are side sleepers but on the 

right bed would likely be back sleepers.
Do you recommend the steams and foster estate ultra firm , luxury ultra firm, 

beautyrest black , or latex ultra firm, or another type entirely? I would probably need

 to get a box spring as well since mine appears to be bent in some places. Was

 planning to purchase a latex topper (medium?) and two latex pillows.
Please let me know your thoughts and best recommendations for our situation. We are

 open to anything and will likely make our decision this week - Given the high cost of 

the mattresses we need it to last a very long time (considering).
How long would it take to have one of your items shipped to MA? If I didn't need the 

company to come set it up for me, could UPS pick it up and get it to us faster?
Thanks in advance

Hi Keith,

The mattress you have has too great a depth of softness for anyone, but

especially for someone with damaged discs. 

As side sleepers, the ultra firm models will be too hard. Chances of your

habits changing to becoming a back sleeper is remote.

As I've seen happen too often in the past, people are likely to go from one

extreme to the other...with equally painful results.

Adding a latex topper is a must for long lasting comfort and added durability

for the mattress. However, on such a firm mattress, the soft latex topper

works best.

Keep in mind that you are softening only the surface of the mattress. The

soft latex topper does not negate the underlying firm support that a firm

mattress provides.

As with so many aspects of life, you want to achieve a balance...in this case, a

balance of firm support and a comfortable sleeping surface.

The starting model in the Simmons Beautyrest Black Series is their

firmest...although, not as stiff as the ultra firm Stearns & Foster models.

Given your sizes, I believe this to be your best choice of mattress...along with

a 2" soft Talalay Latex topper.

Here are the links to both. Delivery of a freshly made mattress takes only two

weeks. It's too large and heavy for UPS.

Simmons or Laura Ashley Mattress from King Koil‏

Ed writes:

In doing mattress research, I came across your blog. Maybe you can help me. I'm 

5'9'', very lean, about 127 pounds, and looking for a new mattress. I like the feel of

 both Simmons Recharge longwood Firm, and Recharge Mission Beach Firm. I also like

 the Laura Ashley mattresses, namely the Aleutia Plush and the Lancaster Plush. I guess

 these are made by King Koil. I cant find anywhere though, what gauge of wire is in the

 Laura Ashley mattresses as a rule, and how they are assembled, so its very hard to 

compare. Do you know this line of mattresses? Also do you know more about the two 

Simmons I mentioned? 

Thanks for any help you can offer. 

Ed

Hi Ed,

The benefit of being your size, with regard to mattresses, is that it's hard to go wrong. Mattresses are pressure sensitive in terms of wear. And your body doesn't apply enough pressure for this all to matter more than which you perceive to be the most comfortable. Average weight and heavier people have to think long and hard about which mattress to buy. The specs become key knowledge in making a choice. Fortunately for you, you don't need to torture yourself over it.

That being said...

As a consumer, I find it unsettling to buy a product, about which, I can't get information. When I do, I'm almost always sorry later.

King Koil is a very old company. I carried them many years ago. At that time, they made a great product. But, then again, so did everyone else. The quality of mattresses has dropped over the last 20 years, but most dramatically over the last 10 years. I don't know what the specs are on those Laura Ashley models you saw. I do know that you will pay more for them than they are worth because Laura Ashley has her fingers in the pie. This would be true of any celebrity endorsed product.

The model names for the same mattresses are different at every store...making it impossible to shop by model name.

If you send me the specs to those Beautyrest mattresses, I'll be able to match them to what we carry.

In short, you can't go wrong with a firm Beautyrest. It uses a nice, heavy gauge wire coil and keeps it shape well. The problems is with their plush models, where the gauge of wire is so much thinner. 

The term "Recharge" is their latest buzz word and applies to their Classic and World Class Models. If you are considering a World Class model, it would behoove you to wait a couple of weeks.'

Starting the 28th of August and thru the Labor Day Holiday, Simmons will again be offering their "Free Boxspring Sale". You'll pay the mattress only price and get the Boxspring at no charge.

For your perusal, here are the models in both series. The prices and specifications are included with each mattress.

Latex mattress, back problems, shoulder issues

Michael writes:

me: 6-4 280lbs wifey 5-4 180lbs both have some back problems and shoulder issues.

 I'm a side sleeper, her - well anything goes (mostly side)
Currently on a ~6 yr old simmons pillowtop medium - as wifey is light sleeper and I roll

 quite a bit, and I'm like a furnace at night. This bed holds the heat, unlike our guest 

bed which we love (but Qn size - 24 years old - 100% foam). Body impressions 

within ~6 months, and cannot rotate/flip. On a platform bed with no boxspring.
Looking for a recommendation to cool us down and last.
Thanks, Michael


Hi Michael,
Normally, when someone tells me how much they like their twenty something year old 

mattress, they're just out of luck when it comes to getting a new mattress like it. The 

mattress industry has reduced the quality of what they produce. The difference over thepast 20 years is dramatic.

You, on the other hand, are able to get a mattress that is very much like the one in your

guest room, which must be a latex mattress. Latex has been the best you can buy since

the 1920s.
24 years ago, only latex and poly foam mattresses were the only all foam mattresses 

available.
Poly foam would never have lasted this long...so, it must be latex.
As you've experienced, latex has everything you could possibly want in a mattress...     support, comfort and longevity. Latex is an excellent choice for your other concerns, as well. It sleeps cooler and does a great job of reducing motion transfer. 
In addition, latex is such a comfortable night's sleep, you'll toss and turn a lot less...
providing a much deeper quality of sleep. You wake more rested and feeling a whole lot  better...physically, mentally and emotionally.
We carry a number of latex mattresses. The PureBliss line is considered to be the 
absolute best in the world. The EverEden models provide a more basic selection of all 
natural 100% chemical free models that are more reasonably priced.
Here is a link to both lines. The EverEden 8" with the plush top is one we have at 

home. The 9" is the most comfortable of then and is an excellent value. 
The pure LatexBliss "Nature" model is very comfy, the "Nutrition" is a little softer.

EverEden Latex Mattress

Ron writes:

Hi Pete,

First, full disclosure: We purchased an EverEden mattress, 6” Dunlop and 3” medium Talalay (glued), from another site, primarily because they offered a great return policy (which may turn out to be a good thing). Since we did not buy it from  you, feel free not to reply. We live in rural upstate New York, so the internet is about our only option for buying an organic latex mattress. We did try and like a Spring Air Nature’s Rest Natural Essence 10” mattress at a Metro Mattress store, but were suspicious when we could not find any confirmation of the salesman’s details of its “100% natural Talalay” construction.

I did a lot of research on the Internet and read your web site before choosing this particular mattress. Natural latex seemed the best way to go. Unfortunately we find it the most bizarre mattress we have ever slept on. It is very soft if you sit on an edge or press on it with your hand. But when we lie on it, it is one of the most firm mattresses we have ever had the displeasure of spending the night on. We hardly sink into it. Both my wife and I wake up hurting in the morning. For her more than a few hours leaves her with pain in her shoulders and hips. I even notice my rib cage hurts laying on it and my back hurts more than usual in the morning. I should add the details that we have had the mattress for about a week and it is on a platform frame, 4” slats, 4” apart.

Some background: We are both side-sleepers. Our home bed for over 30 years has been a “free-flow” unbaffled water bed, for the last decade it has had the addition of a 3” cheap memory foam pad (for insulation) and a good quality featherbed. So maybe we are used to an exceptionally soft bed, but my wife travels for work a lot and has slept on many different hotel beds. I injured my back about 5 years ago, disk damage that is still deteriorating after surgery. To help sleep I added water to the bed to firm it up. As my back has gotten worse, though, I have been unable to tolerate the waterbed and spent more nights on the guest bed (an inexpensive Sealy pillow-top which is OK, but not very comfortable). But it gets lonely in the guest room!

Now, after we have made this enormous purchase, we come to you for advice. Any suggestions? Add a soft latex topper? Return it and buy something different? My wife wants her waterbed back, I just want a good night’s sleep!

Thank in advance for your advice,

Ron

 

 

Hi Ron,

Your mistake was the medium 3" of Talalay. You should have chosen the soft.

You have two options. Add 2" of soft Talalay or trade yours in for the soft top.

If you trade it in, opt for it to be not glued. The top won't shift and so there's no need for the exposure to the chemicals in the glue.

Compare the cost of the exchange to adding the 2" topper.

Here's a link to ours...same stuff from the same manufacturer.

I have the same mattress at home with a 2" soft top. It sleeps great.

The difference in comfort between medium and soft is substantial.

Aireloom Hibiscus Latex mattress‏

I bought a Aireloom Hibiscus Latex mattress in November 2008. It was so comfortable when new, 

but now causes back spasms. I have a bad back, so perhaps what others could tolerate with some 

sagging, I can't. Bloomies has offered a comfort preference credit which is 50% of what I paid, or 

about $1300. I really didn't find much in the store I liked. The "Karyn" Stearns and Foster felt good,

 but the salesman said it would breakdown as fast as what I had so I should go with the Kluft 

(I did not like) or the Shifman trad. pillowtop (still seemed too firm). The Tempurpedic was heaven

 at $3600 but I was getting overheated after 10 minutes. At this point I'm not sure they have anything

 I want, and the prices are marked up so much the credit might not be worth anything. Could you make

 some suggestions from what you sell? Is the Karyn similar in feel to the Heidi? You seem to recommend 

that one often and is in my budget. Is it true S+F will breakdown quickly?

If I go latex can I find one that will not sag in 4 years and is $2k or so? 
I am open to other products you sell. Budget 2K-ish, need some cushion due to disc problems and

 I don't want it to lose support after just 4 years. 


Hi,
There's a lot of misinformation on Bloomie's website. It looks like the Karyn is the Heidi, but the write

 up only half matches.
Check the white "law" label on the back of your mattress. It will give you, by percentage, the materials

 used in your mattress. I know you think you bought a latex mattress, but I'm willing to bet that you 

bought a latex hybrid...only part latex. It's one of those things that salesmen don't bother saying when

 selling. 
I think I can save you a lot of money. Flip your mattress over. The underside will be much firmer.
And while not terribly comfortable like that, your back should stop hurting.
Add to that 2" of real, all-natural latex in either soft or medium, and you'll be good to go for several 

more years.
I looked at the prices on Bloomie's website. I couldn't believe what I saw. Who, in their right mind, shops

 there. Oh, right! Sorry.
Here's the link to the latex toppers.

Sleepmaker™ Elite Grand Mattress by Marshall Mattresses‏

Karen writes:

Hi Pete,

 Thank you for emailing me back.  I have found a mattress I am considering.  It is made by a Canadian company, apparently been around since 1900 or so.  This is the mattress:

a King size Sleepmaker™ Elite Grand Mattress by Marshall Mattresses http://www.marshallmattress.com/Contact/contactus.html. 

Marshall’s original ‘luxury’ two-sided ‘flip’ tight-top design.  

Extra plush: softly cushioned comfort, followed by immediate medium firm support that responds and fully adjusts to the body.

Marshall Regal Pocket Coil® cotton construction; King: 1234, Queen: 1002, Double: 840, Twin: 564.

Hand-upholstered with luxurious comfort padding on each side; medium firm Soy foam plus double layers of convoluted foam, Hollofil™ and cotton pillow fibres.

Covered with fine natural source viscose rayon and cotton damask, custom-crafted and woven in Belgium.

Antibacterial, antimicrobial, anti fungal, hypoallergenic and repels dust mites. 

Please let me know what you think of this one...whether it will stand up to the test of time, and not develop those ruts and a hump down the middle.  I have also emailed the manufacturer to find out what guage the springs are...they are advertised as heavy gauge.

Thanks again, Karen

 

 

Hi Karen,

They always make their stuff sound better than it is...even Stearns & Foster, which is even 50 years older than Marshall's.

Extra soft and convoluted foam are the key words that tell me this mattress will quickly form body impressions...throwing off the proper alignment of your spine.

I think you should not look upon a mattress as a Luxury item. It is a fundamental mistake...one the industry is counting on you to make. It's a mistake that turns you into a regular customer...rebuying mattresses every couple of years...regardless of what the warranty would lead you to believe.

Sears-o-Pedic Wellness Series 2891SL Firm mattress, Delivery to Canada

Karen writes:

Hello,
We have a Sears-o-Pedic Wellness Series 2891SL Firm, Comfort Plus Trinity ii Chiropractic King size mattress that we purchased just over 2 years ago. I have frequent low back pain and we purchased this bed because of it. It was initially comfortable. Within about 3-4 months (shortly after the 60 day return policy ended), trough like depressions formed despite turning the bed as required and a big high lump formed down the middle of the bed separating us. We called Sears to complain. They sent out a guy to measure the depressions and as they were "only" 1.5 inches deep, the warranty would not cover it for replacement.  
Now I have constant neck pain, and wake up with a lower back ache most mornings. I also have shoulder pain and it is hard to find a way to sleep comfortably and I find myself tossing and turning all night. I am 5'5" and weigh 135 lb. My husband is now waking up with back pain as well. He is 5'11" and weighs about 185 lb. We are both in our 50s and we are active and relatively fit.
We want a bed that won't need replacing every few years, is comfortable, and has no sleep depressions. We need some firmness for our backs, but softness for our aches and pains. From all the research I have been doing, it seems that this is not something easy to find if at all. I find it unacceptable that we are expected to accept the 1.5" sleep depression as "normal and beneficial" as one of the websites I was on stated.  
Can you recommend a bed, or a bed and topper that would work for us?
Also we are in Canada, is it possible to order a bed online via a link you provide with out paying huge shipping fees?
Thanks so much, Karen 
 
 
Hi Karen,
Thanks for the indignant outrage. I don't hear nearly enough of that. I hear a lot of sheep bleating, but not many lions roaring.
The only voice heard by large corporations is the sound your dollar makes when you don't spend it with them.
The BS that they feed you is designed to have you accept poor quality...like that impression being a good thing.
 
The Sears-O-Pedic used to be made by Sealy, used to be made by Simmons...is now made by Serta.
At this point, I would have you restrict  your search to Simmons or Stearns & Foster...a firm model without a pillowtop....and do your best to avoid memory foam. Pillowtops and memory foam are the major body impression causes.
I'll be happy to inspect any links you send me and review it with you. I cannot ship a mattress to Canada, only to a US border town, where I've had Canadians go to pick it up.
I can UPS a latex topper to you and this will be the key to long lasting comfort. Added to a firm mattress, you have everything your body needs. The firmer mattresses tend to cost less. The topper adds longevity to the mattress, besides comfort...making the combination everything your wallet wants. You can then sleep without having to fight through your righteous indignation to get there.
Here's  link to the topper. We have included Canada in our free shipping.

Simmons NXG and Omaha Mattresses‏

Stephanie Sue writes:

Hi,

So, my boyfriend and I own a queen serta pillow top. We want to upsize to a king but are having trouble picking out the best mattress for the long haul ahead. We have looked at Simmons NXG and Omaha Mattresses. I am more of a medium soft mattress lover. I weigh about 130 and he is more is the range of 220 or so. I do not want a mattress that is going to sink into the middle or sink in on one side due to weight. Which mattress do you think we should get? I don't know much about temperpedic or any other brand. WE would like a comfortable, plush, lasting mattress. The kind you can't wait to go to sleep in! 
 
 
Hi Stephanie Sue,
Sounds good! Your description is right on! Most people will sleep well with that sort of mattress, providing good support, comfort and longevity. 
There aren't many mattresses today that will work that well. So, rather than screw around with them, how about we just go with the one I have at home, which will give you exactly what you're looking for....Simmons Beautyrest Black Ansleigh in luxury firm or plush/firm.

Aireloom Mattress‏ too firm for Fibromyalgia...need a soft latex topper

Anette writes:

Hi.

I've been reading some of the comments about the aireloom. I recently purchased one and I wake up every morning in pain. I have fibromyalgia so I needed a bed that was soft for my hips yet supportive for my body. I thought this mattress felt great in the store. It definitely doesn't feel great here. I contacted the salesman told me to put a topper on it. I will try that but I'm not sure that that will help. I also tried the temperpedic in the store but my husband hated it. Any suggestions and where is your company located. Is there a showroom that I can go to? I live in Lakewood, Ca. Thanks for taking the time. Annette 

Hi Anette,

Our physical stores are in Delaware.
We deliver Nationwide.
If your mattress is simply too firm, then a topper could very well be the solution for you.
The best toppers are latex. The softest of them is the soft Talalay models.
We can send you one. Here is the link to the toppers we carry. Order on-line. Delivery is free and there's no sales tax.

Buying a "safe" mattress‏ with No Memory Foam

Holli writes:

Hi, 
My husband and I have been looking at mattresses and I stumbled upon your site. Glad I did. We had placed an order yesterday for a Simmons Tru Energy Recharge Beautyrest Bryanna mattress set. It has the fancy coil system and all the memory foam and gel extras. We recently dumped our 4" Serta memory foam topper due to concerns regarding our health. When we contacted the company we purchased it from stating that we had concerns they told us to dump the topper and gave us a full refund even though it has been 2 years since the purchase. That scared us alot and made our "concerns" more real to us. 

Needless to say after researching I'm not convinced that memory foam is safe. In fact, we cancelled our order for the above mentioned mattress b/c I'm not sure its the safe way to go. I read something you told someone else and it made a lot of sense. You suggested that they buy a nice firm mattress and buy a natural organic latex topper. I think that would make sense. I was told though that the plush pillow tops have foam in them as well and that actually ALL mattresses have foam. I would think that the kind of foam and amount of foam is different than those like the one we almost bought which has layers of it. Can you educate me on how mattresses are made or what's in them? I'd like to buy a certified safe, USA made,( USA products only inside mattress) and a truly organic, all natural, no harmful additives topper. Is there such a thing?? I've heard of the Certipur US seal and I'm not sure if that's legit or not. Which certifications should I look for? Your help and advice would be greatly appreciated. 
 
Thanks so much. 
 
HR
 
PS The reason we need the topper is my husband has low back issues. Our combined weight for the mattress would be about 350lbs and no pets. :) 

Hi Holli,
It took me a little longer to answer your question because, quite frankly, I didn't know where to begin.
First off, I have to ask, Where do you live?" That's a rhetorical question, as I assume you live somewhere in the US. The real question is, "How did you come to believe that you would be able to buy such a thing in this country?" Mattresses are no different than the poisoned food you eat or polluted air you breath or the chemically treated water you drink. There are laws to protect you that have ended up protecting the scammers and snake oil salesmen....the advertisers and manufacturers. 
Rather than expose you to lousy products that allow you to decide not to buy them, you are exposed to lousy products that sound great, and have no choice but to buy them.
Truth in advertising laws turned into half-truths in advertising....accentuating the positive and eliminating the negative. 
We've all seen the disclaimers in the ads. They are there, (in the smallest of print), to warn you that what is actually in the add is not true.
Regardless of the law, there's a way around it. Truth in advertising laws are old ones and all of the loop holes have been found and exploited.
Memory foam is as bad for you as toys painted with lead or cadmium paint....as asbestos....as radioactive waste. Ok, maybe not that bad.
Now that we have done a reality check, let's talk mattresses. Regardless of what's in them or how badly you get screwed buying one, you still need something to sleep on.
If I had my way, you'd all be sleeping on all natural latex. But, latex is expensive. However, it's expensive because it's quality. You can spend as much or more on the crap they call, "memory foam". Have you noticed that there is no lack of commercials for memory foam? Do you know how expensive those commercials are? Is there any wonder about where the money comes from, to fund those commercials? 
It's a simple equasion. You take a piece of juck, make it look nice, invest some money in telling everyone how great it is and charge 4 to 5 times what it's worth. Because, if it costs more, it must be better....because they said it was good and they couldn't say it, if it weren't true. 
Have you ever actually called around to several companies for quotes on car insurance, including Geico in that shopping? I did. What I found was, Geico was consistantly $500
higher in price than most other companies...just the opposite of all that advertising I'm continually bombarded with.
Here's a link to the latex and innerspring mattresses....all, with zero memory foam.
