Replacing a Simmons Beautyrest World Class Mattress.

Nick writes:

 

Hi Pete,

We're replacing a Simmons Beautyrest World Class Mattress.  

It was a great for the first three years.  

Now, it's depressed on my sides of the mattress and exacerbating my back issues (herniated disc).  

I'm 180 pounds and my wife is about 130 pounds and we're both side sleepers and about 40 years old.  

We rotate the mattress every six weeks.  

Before that, we had a Simmons Beautyrest that lasted comfortably for over 10 years.  

We ordered a Serta mattress for a guest bed and I find it very uncomfortable, so I've avoided that brand since.

 

I've been told the closest approximation of our current mattress is the Simmons Beautyrest Silver.  

On your site I found the Natura of Canada Greenspring as a possible replacement.  

We use a mattress protector and take good care of our mattresses, so I'd rather have a quality mattress that maintains its form for 10 years, even if it is more expensive...which ends up being less expensive than having to replace a mattress every three years and living with the discomfort of a cheap mattress. 

What would you recommend for us?

Thanks, Nick

 

Good Morning Nick,

What causes your mattresses to need such frequent replacing is the memory foam upholstery, which is purposefully designed to do just that. What you’re looking for is a mattress that uses the same coil system as a Simmons Beautyrest with much higher quality upholstery…a mattress that will last a very long time.

 

We recommend one of the Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattresses.

My wife and I have been sleeping on the Ultra Plush model for the past nine years.

We each weigh more than 200 lbs., and our mattress is still in great condition.

Here’s a link to that mattress, showing specifications and prices.

A mattress for a side sleeper with arthritis and back pain.

Susan writes:

Hi Pete,

I am a side sleeper with arthritis and back pain. 

I have been waking up sore all over. 

I know it is time for a new mattress and do not like a very firm mattress.  

I read about your all latex mattresses. Would those be right for me?  

I have a platform bed and have not been using a box spring but can if it is required. 

I'm 5'2" @ 170 lbs. Can you advise me?

Thanks, Susan

 

Hi Susan,

A box spring is not necessary with a platform bed.

While Latex is the most resilient of all the foams, not all foam mattress provides the pushback support needed to relieve chronic back pain.

 

The Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattress in Ultra Plush, with individually pocketed coil mattress will relieve your back pain. It provides contouring, pushback support against your back that maintains the natural alignment of your spine. The Natural Talalay Latex upholstery provides long lasting comfort and relief for arthritis pain.

A good, quality, king-sized mattress.

 

Deborah writes:

 

Good morning!

My husband and I are looking for a good, quality, king-sized mattress to replace the one we've had for about six years. We were looking for one we had slept on at a hotel, and I stumbled on your website in my research. 

Wow, am I sure glad I found you before I spent money on another disappointment.  

However, I need help.

 

I am 61, husband is 64.  He is 6'0" and 210 lbs, I am 5'4" and 165 lbs.  

We are active (running, cycling, swimming, mountain biking), so we have standard aches and pains but nothing unusual.  

We like a firmer mattress and are both mostly side sleepers/some back sleeping.  

I was thinking about the Wolf Tulah with the option of adding a topper if needed later; or the Natura Greenspring--but which one?

 

Any guidance would be appreciated!

Best regards, Deborah

 

Hi Deborah,

The Wolf Tulah Luxury Plush Eurotop Mattress is a terrific value.

Firm support and a comfortable sleeping surface that’s not too soft.

No off gassing, no sinking in, no sleeping hot.

If money is an issue, it’s a great buy and will outperform what you have now.

FedEx delivery to the front door is free and takes about two weeks.

 

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.

The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress is higher quality.

Despite the comfort designation of ‘ultra plush’, it’s nowhere near as soft as it sounds.

This is the brand we go to for very heavyweight people.

 

White Glove delivery includes setup in your bedroom and removal of all packaging materials. 

Delivery is free and takes about 6 weeks to arrive.

Back aches on a new Simmons Beautyrest Mattress.

Mike writes:

Pete,

My wife and I purchased a Queen size Simmons Beautyrest PressureSmart 2.0 Plush Pillow Top mattress from Mattress Firm this past April.  

We started having back aches after about 60 days and thought it was due to our exercise, age and outdoor activities. 

We are still dealing with the back pains and believe it has to be the mattress.  

The mattress is no longer within the 120 day guarantee.

We have finally decided it is time to change.  

Can you recommend a good mattress for us.

My wife is 5’4” 130lbs and I am 5’8” 160lbs.  

We both in good shape in our late 50’s and exercise daily.  

P.S. our last mattress we had for 15yrs and we never had an ache.  

Can’t remember what the brand was.

Thank you for your help!!

Mike

 

Hi Mike,

The problem with your mattress is the memory foam upholstery.

Simmons was sold in 2016 to an investment group that also bought Serta.

Memory foam is used to cause mattresses to need frequent replacing, which has enhanced profits for those making it and selling it.

Contrary to all the hype, memory foam is the absolute worst upholstery material ever invented…from a consumer’s standpoint.

 

To relieve chronic back pain, you need a mattress using an individually pocketed coil system, which provides firm contouring support, which maintains the natural alignment of the body and spine….without memory foam upholstery.

 

Natural, durable and comfortable Latex is and has been the best…most comfortable and longest lasting upholstery material for the last 100 years.

 

We carry a line of mattresses from Natura of Canada Greenspring

These use a stronger version of the pocketed coils in the Beautyrest and uses pure, hypoallergenic latex upholstery.

There are 4 models in the line, becoming more comfortable with each higher model.

My wife and I have been sleeping on their Ultra Plush model for the last 9 years,

Shown here:

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

 

These mattresses are designed to remain supportive and comfortable for 20 years.

After almost a year of shopping, I was looking into purchasing one of these mattresses.

Hi Pete,

After almost a year of shopping, I was looking into purchasing one of these mattresses. 

Wolf Jessica one sided or the Brandy-Lynn two sided, which don't seem to be available.

 

I was looking into a firm mattress with a latex topper.

Can you recommend an available mattress?

Thanks, Shew

 

Good Morning Shew,

Both of those mattresses were discontinued only a couple of months ago.

Our one remaining Wolf mattress, the Tulah Luxury Plush Eurotop, will have the feel of a firm mattress with a topper, and still be in a lower price range.

We’ve sold many of them and all are enjoying it.

 

UPDATE!…This Wolf Mattress Has Been Discontinued.

The higher quality upholstery provides greater comfort and longevity.

We also carry a high end line, which also use an individually pocketed coil system, but are upholstered with latex.

These are extremely long lasting mattresses.

My wife and I have been sleeping on the Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress for the past 9+ years…still like new with each of us weighing more than 200 lbs.

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

 

Latex is the most resilient upholstery material available.

It’s comfortable, but you don’t sink into it. It holds you up.

The feel it creates is unique and best described as Floating.

 

All of these mattresses are firmer than they sound. 

So, you won’t be sacrificing the firm feel you’re looking for.

 

The Eco-Terra mattress ships via FedEx.

The Natura mattresses come with white glove delivery.

My wife has been complaining about our Tempur-Pedic mattress ever since we got it, 3 years ago.

Jason writes:

Hi Pete,

My wife has been complaining about our mattress ever since we got it, 3 years ago.

It's a Tempur-Pedic, which we spent a lot of money on.

I can't tell you how disappointed we both are with this...especially after all the hype it took to sell it to us.

We were told that it would relieve my back pain and that it had cooling technology.

Well, my back did feel better for the first couple of months. Now, I'm in more pain than ever before.

My wife was told that it would provide relief to her hot flashes. 

Not only does it not do that, the heat factor is now worse.

After registering a complaint and having the mattress inspected, we were told that there's nothing wrong with the mattress. We can't return it and we can't live with it.

 

We have been jammed together in our queen size guest room for the past few months and miss our king size.

We are having company over next month and will have to go back to the Tempur-Pedic.

We are absolutely dreading that.

I want to surprise my wife with a new mattress before that happens.

Can you help me?

Thanks, Jason

 

Hi Jason,

The reason for all of your problems is the memory foam in that mattress.

Any mattress upholstered with memory foam will produce the same sad results.

 

An individually pocketed coil system is key to relieving chronic back pain.

Only memory foam sleeps hot.

It's temperature sensitive upholstery material, which absorbs your body heat and reflects that heat back to you.

Of all the upholstery materials available, Natural Latex is the longest lasting.

Polyurethane foam was the primary upholstery material used before memory foam took over.

 

I have an excellent option for you.

Our Highest Quality is The Natura of Canada Greenspring.

Individually Pocketed Coils and Natural Talalay Latex Upholstery.

There are 4 models in their line...and not a bum in the lot.

Chattam and Wells Mattress, not living up to expectations.

Kelly writes:

Hi Pete,

I (60F) and my husband (61M) are in need of a new mattress set. 

We replaced our 20 year old Chattam and Wells firm mattress (due to pressure pain) with their plusher mattress about 5 years ago and it’s been downhill since. 

Our bed dips badly on both sides and we are desperate for a good night's sleep. 

This set has not lived up to our expectations.

 

My husband is 5’10” 230 lbs with a bad back. He also has some heart issues. 

He is mainly a side sleeper. I am 5’4” 191 lbs with hip and shoulder pain and some neck issues. 

I am a side/stomach sleeper. He sleeps hot, I sleep cold.

 

Recently we traveled and stayed at a LaQuinta. 

To our surprise we both slept great! No pain! And we both slept through the night. 

Now we realize our problem isn’t age related. It's mattress related. 

We are on a mission to replace our mattress.

 

I know we can purchase the mattress that LaQuinta uses but is that advised? 

I believe it was a medium firm, tight top. They are currently having a great sale. 

And they even have the moveable platform base. Is that recommended? 

I'm definitely not a fan of pillow top mattresses. 

We currently have a memory foam topper to help with pressure points. 

I’m not a fan of that, either.

Would love to hear what you would suggest for us.

Thanks, Kelly

 

Good Morning Kelly,

20 years ago, it was difficult to buy a bad mattress.

Back then, memory foam could only be had through Tempur-Pedic.

Today, most mattresses are upholstered with memory foam…now that all of the name brands have been sold. Tempur-Pedic owns Sealy and S&F. An investment group bought Simmons and Serta…all using memory foam to enhance profits by making the consumer a frequent buyer.

 

LaQuinta features Simmons Beautyrest.

The problem is that the mattress you slept on may be an older mattress with no memory foam in it. Any new mattress you buy from them will have memory foam, which will bring you around to where you are today within a couple of years or so.

 

The mattress most like the older mattresses used in hotels is:

The Wolf Tulah Luxury Plush Eurotop Mattress 

 

This mattress uses the same components used it that hotel mattress, an individually pocketed coil system for support and polyurethane foam for comfort.

 

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.

Hybrid Latex Mattress | Eco Terra Mattress ecoterrabeds.com

 

My first choice for anyone the size of your husband, is a mattress upholstered with latex foam…the most durable of all the upholstery materials for the last 100 years.

Latex is cushy, but doesn’t allow you to sink. The feel it creates is one of Floating.

 

We carry a brand that use pocketed coils for support and latex upholstery.

The Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattresses are all on the firm side, even their ultra plush model.

These mattresses will give you the longevity you had been used to.

The Natura mattresses come with white glove delivery.

The Eco-Terra mattress arrives via FedEx.

 

I’m not a fan of adjustable bed bases.

Their therapeutic value is minimal and with the head raised, all of your body weight shifts to a central point in the mattress, just under your butt.

THIS spot in the mattress is where it will wear first…and much quicker than when your weight is more evenly distributed. It’s a lot to spend for so little benefit.

 

Your body’s natural alignment should be maintained when sleeping…for that, flat is best.

If you need a new foundation, I recommend this one from Magniflex:

Our Natura Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress, money well spent.

Jim writes:

 

Hi Pete,

Our Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress was delivered and installed in August.

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

 

I want to express my thanks for your assistance in selecting this mattress. 

After only two days, my beloved wife woke up very refreshed with no aches. no hip pain nor sore back. 

It was the first time, in a very long time, that she had slept through the night without waking three or four times.

I, too, am sleeping longer and deeper, and no longer wake up with low back and hip pain, as well. 

I have been able to do several chores that I had been unable to do, because of nagging low back and hip pain. 

By the end of the day, I only have only nominal soreness from the physical work.

Again, I deeply appreciate your help. It was money well spent!

Thank You, Jim

 

Hi Jim,

Thank you, so much, for sharing your experience with this mattress.

The results you're getting are what I expected. So, no surprise to me. 

My wife and I have been sleep on that same mattress for the last 9 years.

I'm extremely happy for both of you.

 

Thanks, Pete

Hi Albert,

The question is a simple one, but the answer is less so.

"Best" to me, is a combination of Support, Comfort and Longevity.

There's no value and no 'best" with a comfortable mattress that doesn't stay comfortable for a long time.

The Natura of Canada Blossom Plush All Latex Mattress is our "Best/Most Comfortable".

Fibromyalgia. Highest Quality, Most Comfortable Mattress.

Lidia writes:

Hi Pete,

I have fibromyalgia and have yet to find a mattress that’s comfortable.

I’m looking for the highest quality, most comfortable mattress you have.

I’m specifically looking for a mattress with individually pocketed coils and soft latex upholstery.

I’ve been on your website and wonder if you’d recommend one of the Natura Greenspring mattresses.

If so, which one?

Thanks, Lidia

 

Hi Lidia,

The Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattresses are the highest quality available.

Since fibromyalgia is a progressive condition, the Ultra Plush model is the most comfortable.

What’s more, the 3" of Soft, Natural Talalay Latex upholstery provides extremely long-lasting comfort.

Never:

Use an old box spring/foundation with any new mattress. 

Doing so voids the warranty of the mattress.

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

 

Always:

Use a waterproof mattress protector. 

Your new mattress will last longer if kept clean and dry.
