I ordered a mattress with a latex topper from you, back in 2012.

Hey Pete! 

I ordered a mattress with a latex topper from you, back in 2012.   

The mattress we ordered is the Simmons Beautyrest Black Ansleigh Plush/Firm.

The topper is becoming dented…..(we are not huge people but I guess it happens! LOL)

I'm wondering if I can extend the life of my mattress by purchasing another topper?  

If so, which one would you recommend?  

Thanks so much, Alex

Hi Alex,

Welcome Back!

11 years is a long time for a latex topper.

You did so well with it because you’re not huge people.

Have you tried flipping the topper?

 

The topper plays a dual purpose. 

1. Surface Comfort.

2. It extends the life of the mattress by absorbing the bulk of your body weight.

 

That mattress has lasted as long as it has, due to using a topper with it.

So yes, replacing the topper makes good sense.

 

Here’s a link to our Mattress Toppers page:

https://themattressexpert.com/mattress-toppers-latex-more/

Suite Sleep is Pure Latex and the Highest Quality.

Sleep & Beyond is a combination of latex and wool (not as soft)

Magniflex MemoForm foam is a unique product with the feel of memory foam and the durability of latex. 

(NOT memory foam)

 

Shipping is Fast & Free for all.

 

BTW: Simmons was sold to an investment group a few years after you bought your mattress. 

Today’s Beautyrests, including their Black Series, is far lower in quality, with shorter longevity.

So, you’ll want to make the most of the one you have.

 

As you shop, you’ll find cheap latex, which is made in China.

The clay filler they add to the mix allows it to be sold as all natural.

But it only takes months, not years, before it starts to show wear…making it far more expensive in the long run.

Thanks, Pete

It's time to buy mattresses for our grandsons.

Debra writes:

Hi Pete,

You have helped me out so many times before, over the years.

Now, it's time to buy mattresses for our grandsons. The oldest is 4. 

We had great luck with the double sided Wolf mattress that we have for our guest bedroom. 

I was thinking that would be great. I remember they were a great price and quite comfortable. 

However, it doesn’t look like you have them anymore and I don’t see them anywhere else. 

Any other ideas?

Thanks, Debra

 

Hi Debra,

I’m always happy to be of help. Welcome back.

The two-sided mattress has been discontinued.

However, Wolf still makes a quality mattress, offering excellent support, comfort and longevity.

It's ideal for a growing child.

 

The Wolf Tulah Luxury Plush Eurotop Mattress uses the same individually pocketed coil system and similar upholstery materials that were used in their older, two-sided mattress.

I have a grandson growing up on this Tulah Mattress...along with other family and friends.

You’ll like the price, as well. There's no better value for a child's mattress.

The upholstery materials are CertiPur Certified Safe....NO Off Gassing!

Here’s a link to that mattress.

A latex topper for a Simmons Beautyrest Sofa Bed Mattress.

Jim writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I have a situation similar to one of your customers, who was asking about a latex topper for a Simmons Beautyrest Sofa Bed Mattress. 

My folks will soon be coming for a few days and I’m not sure the mattress on this sleeper sofa will be soft enough.

I would love to have the option for them to throw on a softer topper.

Thanks very much,

Jim

 

Hi Jim,

The Sleep and Beyond myWoolyLatex Mattress Topper is the best value.

All Natural latex, (not made in China), providing plenty of comfort that you can get quickly.

A Latex Topper for a Tempur-Pedic Mattress that's causing back & hip pain.

Nancy writes:

 

Hi Pete, 

I saw the article about the Tempur-Pedic Mattress causing back & hip pain. 

I have chronic back pain & hip pain, and I would like to try flipping my Tempur-Pedic mattress & putting the EverEden Latex Topper, that you recommended, on it. But, I can’t find it. 

 

Can I really flip my Tempur Pedic mattress over? Everywhere I look it says it doesn’t need to be flipped. 

But you are saying a Tempur-Pedic mattress can be flipped & add a latex topper and it will be ok?

Can you provide a link for it? 

Thanks, Nancy

 

Hi Nancy,

EverEden switched to memory foam from latex during the pandemic when supply lines for latex were disrupted. 

Flipping your mattress and adding a latex topper will be better than ok.

The memory foam that’s causing your pain is only on the top of your mattress.

The flip side is high density poly foam that’s too firm to sleep on comfortably.

 

The latex topper provides long lasting comfort and the sensation that you’re floating.

You’ll transform what you have into what you had hoped for.

Here are links to Sleep & Beyond myWoolyLatex Mattress Topper, which is what we have now.

A Topper for a 20 year old Tempurpedic Mattress.

Hi Pete,

I have a 20 year old Tempurpedic Mattress that’s worn out. 

I read on your website that I can turn the mattress over and put a topper on it.

How long do you think the old mattress will last once I flip it over and put a topper on it?

Thanks, John

 

Hi John,

It depends on how bad your mattress is.

Typically, about 3-5 extra years has been realized.

 

The Sleep & Beyond myWooly Latex Topper provides the unique feel of floating.

Shown here:

The Magniflex Toppers will produce a cradling surface feel, like what you’ve been used to.

I have spent thousands of dollars for crappy mattresses.

Valerie writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I have been learning why I have spent thousands of dollars for crappy mattresses, from your expert.

It's the memory foam!  

We seem to need the firm mattress without memory foam and a latex topper (back and joint friendly).

Please advise how to buy one.

Thanks much, Valerie

 

Hi Valerie,

The best I can off you is a Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattress.

They are extremely well made and the ultra plush model isn’t likely to need a latex topper, as there is 3” of Natural Talalay Latex already built into the mattress.

Here’s a link to the ultra plush model, showing specifications and pricing.

https://themattressexpert.com/liberty-ultra-plush/

It’s the best mattress I could find, while shopping at the industry trade shows.

It’s the mattress we’ve been sleeping on at home for the past 9 years.

We need to replace a Stearns and Foster Blisswood Mattress.

Wendy writes:

 

Hi Pete,

We currently have and need to replace a Stearns and Foster Blisswood Mattress, bought from you back in 2012.

And we have one of your Plush Latex Topper Mattress Topper - 2" Talalay 100% Natural  (purchased in 2013).

My husband is over 300 pounds and now says that the mattress makes his back hurt.  

I am 200 pounds and have a herniated disc in lower back and bursitis in my hips.  

I used to sleep well on this set-up but now pain in my hips wakes me up at night.

My questions are:  

Do we need a new mattress or a new topper?  Dunlop latex instead of Talalay?  Thicker latex?

Thanks for your help, Wendy

 

Hi Wendy,

Given your sizes, you got quite a lot of years out of that sleep system.

However, it may very well be that you don't need anything, as yet.

There is a trick that often works, which may put off the need for a new mattress for a number of years.

Remove your topper...flip your mattress...flip and reapply your topper.

 

The underside of the mattress is firmer...and flipping it may be all you need to do.

Try it that way for the next couple of nights, and let me know how you're doing.

 

If you do, in fact, need a sleep system, I suggest the Natura of Canada Greenspring in Luxury Firm.

And a Sleep and Beyond Latex Topper to go along with it.

Here's the link to that latex topper:

These mattresses come with white glove delivery. The topper ships via FedEx.

Delivery includes set-up in your bedroom and removal of all packing materials.

Delivery is Free throughout the US and Canada

A mattress for large man with spinal fusions and herniated discs.

Dwight writes:

Hi Pete,

I need a mattress for large man with spinal fusions and herniated discs.

The mattresses I've been buying only make my back pain worse.

Thanks, Dwight

 

Hi Dwight,

With your back and spine being what it is, it will be important for the support to be right and durable enough as to not change anytime soon, as your back will be much more sensitive to changes than for people with a sound back.

 

That which changes first, in a mattress, are the upholstery layers.

It will be extremely important for you to avoid any mattress upholstered with memory foam, which changes quickly.

Memory foam is the worst upholstery material ever invented…specially designed to cause a mattress to need frequent replacing.

It has proven to make any back problems worse, despite the sales hype to the contrary.

 

The mattress needs to be somewhat unyielding and somewhat flexible at the same time. It’s a fine line to walk, achieving that right balance.

For that reason, I’m recommending the Natura of Canada Greenspring Firm.

Shown here:

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

While this mattress does provide the support you need, long term, it’s generally too firm to sleep on comfortably.

You’ll need to add a mattress topper for surface comfort.

Adding a separate mattress topper allows you to replace it as needed without having to replace the entire mattress.

The upholstery material that is most resilient is natural latex foam rubber.

Latex foam changes very little over a fairly long period of time.

The one I recommend for your needs is the Sleep & Beyond Wooly Latex Topper.

shown here:

https://themattressexpert.com/latex-toppers/sleep-beyond-toppers/sb-mywooly-latex-topper/

This sleep system combination will provide many years of proper spinal support and comfort that isn't too soft.

 

The mattress comes with white glove delivery.

The topper ships via FedEx.

There are no delivery charges

 

Thanks, Pete
