The Mattress Expert strongly recommends using a removable pillowtop latex topper with your mattress. This product adds comfort that doesn't collapse on you, the way a sewn on pillowtop mattress will. Not only does it provide unsurpassed comfort that lasts, it will add years of life to your mattress. Latex is the most resilient material available in the mattress industry. It totally puts memory foam to shame.

Our latex toppers are made from an all natural product that is manufactured using sap from the rubber trees that grow in Sri Lanka.

Our Talalay Latex is 100% All-Natural with no chemical additives...safe enough for a baby to ingest without harm...Made in the USA by Latex International.

Our Dunlop Latex is also 100% All-Natural and made in Sri-Lanka, where the sap from the rubber trees is harvested.

Latex Allergy? Not to Worry! The allergen in natural latex is removed during the sap to foam process. Our Latex is hypo-allergenic...and, Dust Mite, Mold and Mildew Resistant.

With all of the chemicals used in today's mattresses, a removable Latex Pillowtop Topper is an excellent way to insulate yourself from them.

Best mattress, back disc and sciatica, Simmons, Stearns & Foster

Stella writes:

Hi Pete,
I need a new mattress for a queen size bed. I am 5'4 125 lbs my husband is 6.3' 250 lbs.
I have a lower back bulging disc that with pain going down the leg, and my posture is not straight sometimes.
I am a stomach sleeper, which I try to avoid since it is not good for the back. My husband prefers a medium firm mattress, no major problems with his back.
What type of mattress do you recommend?
Thank you, Stella


 

Hi Stella,

Something on the firmer side will allow you to sleep on your stomach. It will also help with the Sciatica you have. 

The discs in your lower back are worn and the vertebrae are pinching the nerve, which is sending that pain around your hip and down your leg. (Sciatica)

Keeping your spine in its proper alignment will help alleviate that. Soft mattresses allow you to sink too far...throwing off that alignment.

Given your size, you will also need some cushioning to reduce the pressure on your joints and muscles.

There are a couple of ways to go on this. Both choices will work well for the two of you.

The Stearns & Foster Twila in luxury firm with a 2" soft latex topper is one of the best choices and has worked well for several years.

The Simmons Beautyrest Black Ansleigh in plush/firm is also one of the best mattresses on the market, providing a nice combination of firm support with a comfortable sleeping surface.

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 Beautyrest Black Brooklyn Plush/ Firm with pillow top, Pure Bliss Latex Mattress, DDD‏

Stacey writes:

Hello Pete, 
I purchased Simmons Beautyrest Black Brooklyn Plush/ Firm with pillow top 2 months ago, and now I am trying to return the mattress.
I had a body sore for a month after I got this mattress. The body sore is gone now, but I still have a shoulder and neck pain and I don't feel really comfortable when I lie down on my back(no pain, but just a little uncomfortable)
I went to several retail stores to check other mattress in the market, but somehow I am having a hard time to find a mattress I can fall in love. I am scared of temperpedic since I know either you love it or hate it and don't want to go through another break in period.
At this point, I am so confused which mattress I need to get. I am thinking about pure latex bliss mattress with topper. Not that it feels different than other mattress I tried, but I am thinking it might be a good mattress to keep a long time. Is a good choice? I tried pure bliss topper, but I didn't like it so much. It feels like I am sinking too much. I tired Costco topper when I visited my friend and it feels better than pure bliss topper. If I order your topper, which firmness should I get? How does your topper feel?
I am 42 years old 5'5 170 lbs with degenerative disc. And, I am a side and back sleeper.
Thanks in advance for your time and advice!!!
Stacey
  
 
Hi Stacey,
As a female with DDD, a pillowtop is a bad idea.
Your biggest problem is this idea you have about falling in love with your mattress.
Frankly, it's just plain foolishness. I'm guessing that the mattress industry, through mass media marketing and salesman's BS, has brain washed you into thinking that's what you want.
When what you need and what you think you want cannot be reconciled, you end up where you are...lost and confused.
Your back problems require firm support. Your feminine shape requires contouring at the surface.
The materials used at the top of most mattresses, won't long survive the pressure from a woman's hip area.
My suggestion would be the next model down from the Brooklyn...the Ansleigh in luxury firm or plush/firm.

http://themattressexpert.com/mattress-brands/simmons/beautyrest-black/

 

If you require more cushioning than what this mattress provides, add to it a 2" layer of soft Talalay latex...the only material that will hold up.

http://themattressexpert.com/talalay-dunlop-latextoppers/

When trying a mattress, it's important that you not concentrate on the feel of the mattress. They are meant to have a seductiveness to them that is meant to be misleading. Instead, focus on your body and how it is feeling.
An all latex mattress is a wondeful thing and Pure Bliss makes the best of them.
They are uniquely comfortable and long lasting. Many people who go latex, never again consider any other type of bed. It's the only product in this industry with a loyal following.

http://themattressexpert.com/mattress-brands/all-natural-latex/pure-latexbliss/

However, every once in a while, I'll get feedback from someone saying that it doesn't work for them. All of those negative comments were from people with disc issues. 
I have plenty of my own disc problems and have found latex to work well for me.
A lesson, I suppose, that there isn't any one mattress that will work for everyone.
Additional factors include the strain on the body when going from one type to another, which also occurs when going from an old to a new mattress. Re-aligning a spine that has become used to be mis-aligned can be a bit painful at first...but worth it in the long run.

Thanks, Pete

Buying a mattress on-line‏

Julie writes:

Pete,

We are able to return the mattress and it is going back this Friday. We still have our old mattress to use for the time being, but need a new one that works for us. After this experience I honestly don't know where to start. There are a lot of places that sell mattresses, and it freaks me out that we already bought one and it seemed comfortable for the whole 10 minutes we were testing it and others out, how can we keep this from happening again. Just looking for some direction. I am a side sleeper and an occasional back sleeper and my boyfriend is mostly a back sleeper. He wants something that will hold up well considering he is a large guy, think linebacker. He prefers something medium to firm and I prefer soft to medium mattresses. If we could find something that would satisfy us both that would be great. The memory foam holds too much heat and the one we have and are returning feels like it is so stuffed with foam that there is little give, especially when you try to lay on your side. I don't expect you to be a miracle worker, just hoping to find a high quality mattress that gives support and comfort at the same time and won't wear out in a few years. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Julie 

 

Hi Julie,

I sometimes hear how afraid people are to buy a mattress on-line. Your experience is a prime example of why you should be afraid to buy at a store.

Stores have limited space. They pick and choose from a line...the models that they think will sell.

The ones that sell are the softer mattresses and pillowtops and memory foam models that don't hold up. These are the models that well easily. You never have the entire line to choose from.

And, if you want a model they don't floor, they don't want to order it, even though they can.

That's only one good reason. How about all the "salesmanship" you run into?! These people are trained to "make the sale". Out of 10 salespeople you come across, how many give a hoot about anything other than making the sale? And of course, they only have to choose from the products on their floor.

Frankly, I can't understand why you, or anyone else, wouldn't just tell me about yourself...what you like, don't like and let me figure it out for you.

To do that, I need heights and weights and to know of any pre-existing physical ailments.

 

Thanks, Pete
