Queen size mattress for my mother-in-law.

Larry writes:

Hi Pete,

We need a queen size mattress for my mother-in-law.

She's pushing 80 and is coming to live with us.

She's on the smaller side, with only the usual aches and pains that come with age.

We have a platform bed for her, so we only need a mattress without a box spring.  

What do you recommend?

Thanks, Larry

 

Hi Larry,

Let me recommend to you, that which we sent to my mother-in-law, who is sleeping well for the first time in years, according to her. This mattress uses an individually pocketed coil system and is upholstered with Certi-Pur Certified safe foams.

 

The Wolf Tulah Luxury Plush Eurotop Mattress, providing excellent support, comfort and longevity.

 

UPDATE!…This Wolf Mattress Has Been Discontinued.

 

We are pleased to offer you a higher quality mattress from Eco-Terra. 

This mattress provides the same support with an upgrade in upholstery.

The higher quality upholstery provides greater comfort and longevity.

5 y/o Sealy Posturepedic Mattress Has Deep Sags.

Joanne writes:

Hi Pete,

We have a platform bed, for which we purchased the Sealy Posturepedic cushion firm mattress in 2019.

Now, only a few years in, it has become uncomfortable. 

After only 5 years, the mattress has deep sags...despite the fact that we are fit and light weight people.

I'm in the 125 pound range. I wake up with a bad back pain every morning now.

 

I did, very much, like the experience I had purchasing from you in the past.

I believe I can find an affordable mattress solution from you that will not break down after only a few years.

What firm mattress would you suggest?

 

Thanks, Joanne

 

Hi Joanne,

Sealy isn't what it used to be, not since Tempurpedic bought them in 2013.

 

The Wolf Tulah Luxury Plush Eurotop Mattress is my recommendation...which is firmer than it sounds.

It has an individually pocketed coil system, which contours to the shape of the body and maintains the natural alignment of your spine. THIS is what will relieve your back pain and not wear out quickly....lasting for many years.

The mattresses ship via FedEx, which goes a long way to keeping the cost down.

Our son needs a new queen size mattress.

Alice writes:

 

Hi Pete,

Our son needs a new queen size mattress.

He needs the mattress to be strong, firm, comfortable and good quality.

It also has to be reasonably cheap, pricewise.

He has a platform bed, so we need a mattress only.

Do you have something that will work for us?

Thanks Alice

 

Hi Alice,

I do have something that will work for you.

The Wolf Tulah Luxury Plush Eurotop Mattress is both, firm & comfortable...not too soft.

I have a grandson sleeping on this mattress. He loves it!

I'm trying to solve a mattress problem.

Dan writes:

 

Hello Pete,

I'm trying to solve a mattress problem. We recently bought a fairly expensive mattress.

We tested it on a box spring in the store, but the bed frame that we purchased with our house is a platform style (no prior experience with this style).

We like the look of it so we gave away the box spring.

For the first couple of months, things were ok.

But now, my girlfriend and I are starting to experience stiffness and back pain in the middle of the night and early mornings when we had absolutely no issues prior.

These issues seem to clear up once we get moving over the course of the day, so I have to believe it's related to the mattress or the platform bed.

I was wondering what you would suggest as a solution for us to try.

The bed feels fine when we initially lie down on it, but obviously, overnight something isn't agreeing with us.

Thank you, Dan

 

Hi Dan,

Today's boxsprings are cheaply made and made to be rigid.

A platform bed provides similar support. That's not the problem.

 

Most of today's mattresses are upholstered with memory foam. My guess is that you have one that is.

Your problem is with the memory foam in your mattress.

Memory foam is a horrible product...specifically designed to cause the mattress to need frequent replacing.

For most of what is made today, equating expense with quality is a huge mistake.

The truly diabolical part of memory foam is, that when you get off of the mattress, it looks perfectly fine because the memory foam returns to its original shape.

The point being, that prevailing in a warranty claim is highly unlikely.

Memory foam has created a boon for the industry and a nightmare for the consumer.

There is a fix to this problem. Flip your one-sided mattress over and add a soft latex topper to that.

 

This will put the memory foam at the bottom. 

The underside will provide firm support and the latex will give you the surface comfort you need to sleep well.

Ideally, it would be best to get rid of that mattress and start over with a mattress that has no memory foam.

 

If going with "the fix", here is a link to the latex topper you'll need. 

The Suite Sleep 2" or 3" Soft Organic Latex Mattress Topper is all you'll need to transform your mattress into a sleep system that you will look forward to every night..

A Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress on a platform bed?

Michelle writes:

Hi Pete,

Does the Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress require the matching foundation shown with it, or can it be used on a platform bed?

 

https://www.themattressexpert.com/natura_mattresses.html#/

 

Thanks, Michelle

 

Hi Michelle,

A platform bed is fine, as long as it has all the proper supports…a center beam that supports the cross slats and legs to the floor supporting that center beam.

There are poorly made platform beds out there, so you have to be careful.

Do your mattresses require a box spring?

Scott writes:

 

 

Hi Pete,

Do your mattresses require a box spring?

Thanks, Scott

 

Hi Scott, 

Every mattress needs something to support it. 

The options are:

1. The floor

2. A box spring
   

3. A platform bed
   

4. An adjustable bed base
   

5. A Murphy bed.
   

6. A bunk board

If you need a foundation, The Magniflex KD Foundations are very strong.

You have a choice of color and height.

Wolf Brolynn Plush 2 sided mattress to relieve chronic back pain.

Alan writes:

 

Hi Pete,

My wife and I are average size people who like a mattress that is both, firm and comfortable.

More importantly, I suffer with chronic back pain due to disc wear in my back.

Your blog posts have led me to the Wolf Tulah Luxury Plush Eurotop Mattress.

Am I on the right track? Would this be your recommendation?

We need a mattress only for a platform bed that doesn't need a boxspring.

Thanks, Alan

 

Hi Alan,

The Wolf Tulah Luxury Plush Eurotop Mattress is my recommendation for your particular set of circumstances.

The individually pocketed coils maintain the natural alignment of your spine, which is the best you can do to relieve chronic back pain. The Upholstery is comfortable without being too soft and is Certi-Pur Certified Safe...NO Off Gassing!

The quality is very good, with long lasting support and comfort.

Shipping a Wolf Tulah Mattress from Hawaii.

Mark writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I hope you are doing well in 2022.  

I have a couple of questions for you and hope you can give me some advice.

 

I purchased a Wolf Tulah Plush Eurotop Mattress from you for my son last year in July 2021. 

You were kind enough to have it shipped to Honolulu, Hawaii for us.  Great experience!

My son is moving back to CA, and needs your advice on shipping it, if he does not get rid of it in HI.

1. Is it worth the trouble of shipping, and any advice on shipping a single mattress?

2. If we do ship back the mattress, can we order the Basic Black Platform Bed frame individually ?

Thank you, Pete, for any advice you can give me.

Your loyal customer, Mark

 

Hi Mark,

If you have a container to add that mattress too, then it will be worth shipping.

Shipping it separately is likely to cost more than the mattress is worth.

However, Wolf is no longer able to get the latex used in that mattress.

It is a very nice mattress and currently discontinued.

You won’t be able to replace it, exactly, if you leave it behind.

 

We stopped carrying the basic black platform bed, due to the increasing costs to ship it. 

However, you can buy it directly from the factory.

I’ll pass along that contact information to you whenever you need it.

 

To ship that mattress safely, it should be bagged and boxed.

Let me know if there’s anything else you need.

 

 

Thanks, Pete - TME

I cannot sleep on mattresses with memory foam.

Terri writes:

 

Good Morning Pete,

I have a few questions. I cannot sleep on mattresses with memory foam. My hips are wide. 

I'm looking for an old fashioned mattress like they made before the inclusion of memory foam.

Because I've had such issues with memory foam, (9 mattresses in 3 years), I'm terrified of any kind of foam.

Can you explain how and why foam is used in your bedding?  

Why does it differ from memory foam and why it's better?

Also, because I'm afraid of memory foam, I'm uncomfortable with latex. 

Can you explain the difference between the two?

 

I had a pillow top mattress for 20 years. It went bad and that's how I ended up with memory foam. 

My budget is tight because I've lost almost 5k on bedding.

I'm trying to make the right choice. 

Is your RV Eurotop equivalent to the pillow top I had or is it firm?

To care for the RV Eurotop, I'd rotate it correct?

What is the life span of the RV.?

What is the benefit/difference between a two sided vs the RV..

Also, besides PayPal,  do you offer any other financing?

 

Can I, if I get the RV use the mattress on the floor for a few months before I get a box spring? 

Is this mattress okay on a platform bed.

 

Please let me know,  sorry for all the questions.

Thank you for responding.

Terri

 

Good Morning Terri,

Common Memory foam is the worst upholstery material ever invented.

Proven so over it’s 20+  year history.

Memory foam was specifically designed to cause a mattress to need frequent replacing…and not under the terms of the warranty. Memory foam is the only foam upholstery that’s temperature sensitive.

As it warms from the body heat you give off, it softens…allowing you to sink into it.

This sinking throws off the natural alignment of the spine, causing pain.

Memory foam sleeps hot. It absorbs your body’s heat and reflecting back to you.

Memory foam consists of 61 different chemicals, some of which are highly toxic.

Memory foam off gasses the toxic chemicals from which it’s made.

Memory foam creates a health hazard to every living being in your home.

Only memory foam is a problem.

 

The mattress you had for 20 years prior to the last 3 years, was upholstered with polyurethane foam and maybe had some latex in it. Latex foam is a natural material, derived from the sap of the rubber tree.

Latex foam was introduced about 100 years ago and has been the best of the foams, although the most expensive.

(“Best” meaning most comfortable and longest lasting).

Of late, cheap latex from China has become available. It’s cheap for a reason.

It wears quickly because it isn’t pure latex…latex mixed with clay.

 

Polyurethane foam was invented in the late 1960s.

It has the feel of latex, not as durable not as expensive and not made of natural materials.

Unlike memory foam, polyurethane foam was cured before it was used, which eliminated the chemical off gassing.

 

Today, there is Certi-Pur Certified safe polyurethane foams that have NO Off Gassing.

That is the type of polyurethane used in the Wolf Tulah Mattress.

 

The RV mattress is thin, thus not suitable for someone with wide hips.

My recommendation for proper support and comfort comes in 2 parts.

The Wolf Tulah Mattress and the Suite Sleep 3” Soft Organic Latex Topper.

Here are links to those items.

UPDATE!…This Wolf Mattress Has Been Discontinued.

 

We are pleased to offer you a higher quality mattress from Eco-Terra. 

This mattress provides the same support with an upgrade in upholstery.

The higher quality upholstery provides greater comfort and longevity.
