Questions & Answers

Are $10K Kluft Mattresses Really Worth the Price?

​Hi Pete
The KLUFT Mattresses over $10k…are they really worth the price?
Specifically this one: 

https://www.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/kluft-signature-rose-ultra-plush-mattress-collection-100-exclusive?ID=5109593&CategoryID=3865

Still searching for a great mattress...
Thanks, Natalie

Hi Natalie,
A mattress is a utilitarian product, specifically designed to provide you with a good night’s sleep….not that most of today’s mattresses do that for as long as they once did. But still, no one needs to spend that kind of money to get a mattress that does give you a quality night’s sleep & the longevity you’d expect.
Thanks, Pete 


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

Pete, I agree. 
What would you recommend, from your selection, that is a luxury firm top of the line made with the best of the best materials and won't sag on me in two years time?
Natalie

Natalie, a mattress is made of pressure sensitive materials.
How well it wears over time, depends on the quality of the materials used and the pressure being exerted upon it.
“Top of the line” mattresses were never a good value, as they have too much upholstery, which is more easily compressed.
Top line mattresses are often sold as a luxury product.
And while you do need enough upholstery to provide comfort, indulging in the industry’s attempts to sell you a utilitarian product as a luxury item always results in a shorter lifespan.

Before recommending an appropriate mattress, I have some questions.
What are the sizes, (heights and weights), of the people using the mattress?
What are the ages of the people?
What physical ailments are there to address, if any?
What are you sleeping on now? What’s wrong with it?
Pete

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

Pete,
Our sizes:
5'9 - 150 lbs
5'6 - 130 lbs
Out ages:
Both 44
Physical ailments:
No physical ailments but my husband often complains of shoulder and back pain after sleeping on our mattress: 
BISCAYNE BEDDING TAVERNIER 14" PLUSH MATTRESS
My husband says it’s awful. It dips and sags and is not firm enough.
He wakes up aches and pains, and he sleeps hot. He doesn’t like it
Natalie 


Natalie, I don’t blame him.

What’s wrong with your mattress is what’s wrong with most mattresses being made these days…the memory foam.
While promoted as the best thing since sliced bread, it’s actually the worst upholstery material ever invented…specifically designed to cause a mattress to need frequent replacing.
Memory foam is the only temperature sensitive upholstery material.
It softens as it warms from the heat your bodies give off, causing you to sink into it. At first, it’s fairly comfortable. But, it’s not very resistant.
After only a short time, you’re sinking much to far, throwing off the natural alignment of your body and spine…causing pain.
The other side effects are: sleeping hot and creating the inability to change position without half waking up to do it.
Some of the memory foam is cured or plant based, but most is chemical based and not cured, which results in toxic chemical off gassing evidenced by an unpleasant odor…especially when new.

Your ages and sizes mitigate in your favor. 
My recommendation is for a mattress using an individually pocketed coil system.
These coils are the body’s support…providing an upward, independent suspension type of support that maintains the natural alignment of the body and spine.
Pure, hypoallergenic and organic latex (not made in China) is and has been the best upholstery material for more than 100 years.
The mattress I’m recommending for you is the PlushBeds Luxury Bliss, which you can access through this link:

Hybrid Latex Mattress - The Luxury Bliss
plushbeds.com


If you have an old boxspring, that will need to be replaced.
If it’s reasonably new, or if you have a platform bed, you won’t.
If you do, here’s a link to an excellent choice:
Foundations and Adjustable Bases
themattressexpert.com
 
It’s important to keep a mattress clean and dry, which enhances longevity.
This link will get you to our most popular waterproof mattress protector.

Sleep and Beyond Protectors and Encasements
themattressexpert.com

While the recommended mattress provides all the support and comfort you’ll need to get a good night’s sleep, and for many years, should you wish to indulge your sense of luxury, if you have one, then add a removable mattress topper, which can easily be replaced over the years without having to buy a new mattress.
I recommend waiting until you’ve slept on your new mattress before deciding if you even want to add a topper.
Here’s a link to our toppers page for you to view:

Nothing we sell has any memory foam.
Our focus has always been about quality and value.

Thanks, Pete - TME
