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 Brolynn 2 sided mattress in Plush.

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 Brolynn Old Fashioned Two Sided Mattress in Plush 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 quality is very good, with long lasting support and comfort.

Bad back pain on a Sealy Posturepedic mattress.

Joanne writes:

 

Hi Pete,

We have a platform bed, for which we purchased the Sealy Posturepedic cushion firm mattress in 2017.

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?

 

Are there any lower priced 2-sided firm mattresses that are worth buying?

Thanks, Joanne

 

Hi Joanne,

The problem with your mattress is the memory foam upholstery.

THIS is why it's sagging and why you have back pain.

The Brolynn and Brandy-Lynn Old Fashioned Two-Sided Mattress are what to consider.

These mattresses have an individually pocketed coil system, which contours to the shape of the body and maintains the natural alignment of your spine. And, there's NO Memory Foam.

THIS is what will relieve your back pain and not wear out quickly....lasting for many years.

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

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

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,

Memory foam is the worst upholstery material ever invented.

Proven so over It’s a little more than 20 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 natural, plant based polyurethane foams that have NO VOCs.

That is the type of polyurethane used in the Wolf mattresses.

 

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 Jessica mattress and the Suite Sleep 3” Soft Organic Latex Topper.

Here are links to those items.

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/wolf-mattress/the-jessica/

 

https://themattressexpert.com/xcart5/suite-organic-latex-topper.html

 

You can apply for financing through PayPal.

UPS/FedEx shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.

 

At this point in time, everything will arrive before Christmas.

Any mattress can be used on the floor or on a platform bed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

A 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 latex and poly foams.

There is NO Memory Foam in this mattress...an important feature.

That mattress is the Wolf Tulah Plush Eurotop, providing excellent support, comfort and longevity.

The Wolf Hybrid Tulah Plush Eurotop Mattress for the Family.

Mark writes:

 

Hi Pete,

My family and I are moving from NYC to the New Jersey suburbs.

Myself and wife, plus daughter (6 yrs) and son (3 yrs) all need beds.

My wife and I are average size.

 

Requirements/Constraints

I want to buy beds that will be comfortable for the long term. 

Another constraint is that the stairs in the new house probably cannot fit a king. 

I measured a width of 58" and a height from step to ceiling in the stairwell of 78".

I figure we can probably squeeze a queen through, but not a king. 

We also need to be careful that any bases and headboards come broken down into small enough parts to get them up the stairs. I sleep hot and would like a bed that is cool.

Thanks, Mark

 

Hi Mark,

If you already sleep hot, you need to avoid any mattresses made with memory foam.

Memory foam wears poorly and causes you to sleep even hotter.

 

The Wolf Hybrid Tulah Plush Eurotop Mattress provides excellent support and comfort.

This mattress provides excellent support, comfort and longevity.

It really is all the mattress any of you will need. And, it contains NO Memory Foam.

The same mattress would be my recommendation for your daughter's bedroom.

Shown here:

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/wolf-mattresses/wolf-hybrid-mattress/

This mattress comes shrink wrapped, rolled and boxed. It will fit anywhere, so you can go with the king size.

I recommend the Basic Black Platform Bed to go with that for all of your family members.

 

Shipping is free and there's no sales tax.

Would a slatted platform bed be good support for a mattress.

Erica writes:

Hi Pete,

Thanks, so much, for the mattress you've recommended. This really helps.

Our mattress sits on a slatted platform bed frame.

We put plywood down that's been wrapped in batting for a solid foundation.

 

Would this foundation be good support for the mattresses you've recommended?

Thanks, Erica

 

Hi Erica,

The cross slats need to be supported by a beam that runs head to foot up center.

That center beam needs to be support by, at least, one leg to the floor.

Take a look under the bed. If it has all that, you’re good to go.

Most platform beds have it. Only a few don’t.

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Pete

Wolf Tulah Hybrid Plush Eurotop Mattress.

Sandra writes:

 

Hi Pete,
I was reading your mattress evaluations.

You seem to like the Wolf Tulah Hybrid Plush Eurotop Mattress.
I have a box spring. It’s about 25 yrs. old.
I try to stay on my back, but tend to lean to the left as I sleep. 

I’m 5’6 & 128 lbs..
I have left side of neck & shoulder issues...maybe, from leaning this direction.
Can you help me find this or give me more info?
Thank You, Sandra 

 

 

 

Hi Sandra.

You're just the right size for the Wolf Tulah. It's all the mattress you need.

But first, your box spring must be replaced.

I can only imagine that much of your discomfort stems from the worn out support your mattress is getting.

If your mattress is that old, as well, then there's no question as to why you're suffering.

 

The Wolf Tulah offer excellent support and comfort.

But it doesn't have a matching box spring and that needs to be addressed.

If you have a bed, (headboard, or headboard and footboard), that you want to keep, I suggest getting a new box spring from Costco, Sam's Club or Big Lots. They are very strong and very reasonably priced.

If you don't have a bed, or one that you care about, the Wolf Basic Black Platform Bed is a good choice.

Shown here:

https://themattressexpert.com/xcart5/basic-black-platform-bed-base.html  

 

The Wolf Tulah mattress on a new foundation will give you many years of supportive, comfortable sleep.

A Good Quality, Comfortable and Affordable Mattress.

Dennis writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I'm looking for a good quality mattress that will give me good support and be comfortable enough for my wife.

I know I don't want memory foam.

We have a queen size now, but are considering a king size.

While we want a mattress of good quality, we also need it to be affordable.

We are on the smaller side, but we have a couple of kids and a dog who like to get in bed with us.

Hence, the move to king size.

What do you recommend?

Thanks, Dennis

 

Hi Dennis,

Here is a link to the Wolf Hybrid Tulah, a very well made and affordable mattress.

It provides, both, excellent support and comfort.

This link includes specifications and prices.

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/wolf-mattresses/wolf-hybrid-mattress/

 

The Basic Black Platform Bed, shown with it, provides for extra storage space under the mattress.

If you’d rather have a traditional box spring and frame, the best place to buy those are at Costco, Sam’s Club or Big Lots.

 

Shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.

Exact Equivalent Replacement of an Old Two-Sided Sealy Posturepedic Mattress.

Adam writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I have an old, two-sided Sealy Posturepedic mattress that needs to be replaced.

What is the exact equivalent replacement of that mattress, made today?

Also, I'm looking for a platform bed, maybe with drawers for storage.

Do you carry those?

Thanks, Adam

 

Hi Adam,

Sealy went from making 2 sided mattresses to one sided mattresses in 2003.

In 2013, Tempurpedic bought Sealy.

There is nothing made by Sealy, today, that is even remotely close to what you have.

We had been a Sealy/S&F retailer for many years.

When Tempurpedic Bought those companies, they loaded everything with their memory foam.

We stopped selling both brands at that time. 

What had been quality products are now nothing more than expensive junk.

All thanks to the memory foam, which is the worst upholstery material ever invented.

The good news! You can stop wasting your time looking for something that doesn't exist. 

 

Thanks, Pete

 

*****************************************

 

Hi Pete,

Thank you for that. I don't like wasting my time.

Is there anything made, today, that is reasonably close?

I really liked this mattress.

Thanks again, Adam

 

********************************************

 

Hi Adam,

Here is a link to an Old-Fashioned Two-Sided Mattress with strong, individually pocketed coils to insure proper spinal alignment, and using the same type of upholstery material that is in your current Sealy mattress. (NO Memory Foam).

https://themattressexpert.com/our-brands/two-sided-mattresses/

You’ll order that in firm both sides.

The “Basic Black Platform Bed”, that’s priced with it, is an excellent value and offers excellent storage space.

 

If you prefer a platform bed with drawers, here is a link to our Atlantic Furniture page.

Each of the styles is available with drawers.

In each case, shipping is free and there’s no sales tax.
