Hi Pete, Everyone is pushing memory foam mattresses. So far, we've purchased two and sent them back. Both smelled of chemicals and both slept hot.

With such a high coil count and latex, does it really fully rebound each day? I've never had a mattress with latex in it. Thanks, Jack Hello Jack, My wife an I have been sleeping on that same mattress for the last 9 years. Our mattress has remained in like new condition after all that time, with each of us weighing more than 200 lbs. The coils are strong, made of double tempered steel, and the Talalay Latex upholstery is extremely resilient. In short, YES! It fully rebounds each day...for many years.

It’s finally worn out and in need of replacement. Can you tell me what today’s equivalent is? It’s been the best mattress I’ve ever owned and I’d like to replicate it as much as reasonably possible. Thank you, Jim Hi Jim, There is no equivalent from Simmons. Simmons, along with all of the major brands, has been sold to investors. 20+ years ago, it was nearly impossible to buy a bad mattress. Today, just the opposite is true. I can recommend a mattress that is similarly made to Simmons Beautyrest. The type of coil system is the same. The type of support is the same. The differences are: The coil count is higher and the coils are stronger than in any Simmons mattress. The upholstery material is Pure Organic Latex. Simmons now uses memory foam. There is no memory foam in your old mattress. The World Class Beautyrests often used some latex.

We've been shopping, and being on a budget, we can't believe the prices! Would you happen to know of a mattress that's affordable that will provide adequate support and comfort?

The memory foam mattresses I've purchased sleep hot. Even the gel memory foam, which they say sleeps cool, doesn't. Not all night, at any rate. They're not hot for the first few hours, then get really hot. What's up with that?! Do you know of a memory foam mattress that actually does sleep cool? Thanks, Jerry Hi Jerry, Memory foam is a temperature sensitive material. It softens as it warms from your body's heat. It then reflects that heat back to you. It's that temperature sensitivity that also causes memory foam to wear quickly. It's what allows you to sink into the foam, which eliminates your spine's natural alignment. The Gel infused memory foams delay that. But sooner or later, the gel reaches a saturation point and you're back in the heat. There is a product that works like memory foam that is NOT temperature sensitive. If you like memory foam, you'll love Magniflex Mattresses. For you specifically, The Magniflex MagniCool Mattresses are the coolest. Magniflex is a chemical free, cool, health and long lasting alternative to memory foam. It provides everything memory foam promises, with none of the negative side effects.

Hi Pete, What Mattress does The Mattress Expert sleep on? We are a bit older and on the heavy side, with lots of back pain. We need firm support with a comfortable sleeping surface that will hold up well under our weights. I look forward to your response, Alan Hi Alan, Over the years, my wife and I have home tested several mattresses. Normally, we would keep them for a few years and give them to a family member. The mattress we have now, we've had for 9+ years. We are large, older people as well. I have a very bad back and my wife has a sensitive hip. This mattress, The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush has gone such a great job of relieving our pain, we decided to keep it. The Firm, individually pocketed coils maintain the natural alignment of our spines and the comfortable 3" Talalay Latex upholstery has given us unfailing surface comfort. This mattress will do the same for you. Click on this link to view specifications and pricing: https://www.themattressexpert.com/natura_mattresses.html#/ You can order yours through the above link.

My husband has a lot of back pain. He had surgery in 2016 at L4/5. He thinks the bed is causing his pain and I don’t doubt it. I have some hip and shoulder pain, and periodic arm numbness but I generally can sleep on anything. I am 5’2” and weigh 160 and he is 6’ tall and weighs about 250. We really don’t know where to start with getting an expensive mattress that we won’t be replacing in 2-3 years, but I’ve read your website and I’m convinced that we need something innerspring with a latex topper if that would seem to fit our profile. It would be nice if it was able to be flipped, and it would also be nice if we could just keep the base system and frame that we have for our sleep number bed. Thanks for your advice! Kathy & Dan Hi Kathy and Dan, The foundation and frame that you have, has no give. So, it shouldn’t need to be replaced. Just check it to make sure that it’s still nice and solid. Our two sided mattresses will work for Kathy, but not recommended for someone Dan’s size. Let me recommend to you the mattress that my wife and I have. We are, each, over 200 lbs., and our mattress is now 9 years old and still in excellent condition. I have had a very bad back for 20 years. Yet, I sleep and wake without back pain, since having this mattress. Here is a link to the Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress. https://www.themattressexpert.com/natura_mattresses.html#/ It has pocketed coil support and 3” of Talalay Latex upholstery. Due to the high quality and resiliency of the components, it’s not as soft as it sounds. In fact, about 10% of the people who have purchased this mattress have gone on to add a soft mattress topper. It is not too soft, by anyone’s standards. We added a soft topper to ours to further cushion my wife’s sensitive hip. I don’t recommend getting a topper right away. I suggest waiting until you’ve had this mattress for a week before deciding if further softening of the sleep surface is even necessary. It takes about a week for two things to happen…for a new mattress to loosen up, as a new mattress is a little stiff in the beginning…and for your bodies to get used to their new home. The second part of that can even be a little painful for the first couple of nights…as your bodies are forced back into their proper alignment. White Glove delivery is free. Delivery includes setup in your bedroom and removal of all packaging materials. Your mattress will be freshly made to fill your order and can take a few weeks, or so, to arrive.
