Hi Pete,
My grandmother has severe Rheumatoid arthritis and is particularly sore in the mornings as her body is stiff. Could you recommend which mattress/es would benefit her the most so I can look into prices. Thank you so much! Eleanor Hi Eleanor, A mattress that uses an individually pocketed coil system for support will help to relieve pressure on the body, while also maintaining the natural alignment of her body and spine. One that’s upholstered with soft, pure, organic latex will add to relieving surface pressure. Latex provides the feeling of floating. Which mattress will depend on her size. If she’s light to average in weight, the PlushBeds Luxury Bliss Mattress in Medium is an excellent choice. If she’s a bit heavier, the same mattress in Medium Firm. If she requires a white glove delivery service, including removal of her old mattress, the Williams Kingston Plush Mattress is best. If she’s very heavy, the Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress is recommended. (The Greenspring Mattress is not as soft as it sounds, due to the high quality of the components. It won’t be too soft.) All of the above mattresses are pocketed coil/latex hybrids. Here are links to all 3 mattresses: The PlushBeds Luxury Bliss Mattress https://www.plushbeds.com/products/12-luxury-bliss-natural-latex-mattress-with-encased-coils?variant=31705061490786&sscid=71k8_pjs8o&utm_source=share-a-sale&utm_campaign=4342051 The Williams Kingston Plush Mattress https://cc-mattress-llc.square.site/product/kingston-plush/105?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=false&category_id=TBPEGMF6GAOUPNC4SCBQMGLT Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress https://cc-mattress-llc.square.site/product/natura-greenspring-liberta-ultra-plush/92?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=true You never want to put a new mattress on an old foundation. The mattress won’t feel or wear as it should due to weak spots that develop in an old foundation. And, doing so will void the warranty of any mattress. If you need a new boxspring/foundation, I recommend the Magniflex KD Foundation, which comes in your choice of height, 5” or 8”, and in your choice of color…black, brown or gray. They’re very strong and assemble easily with no tools needed. They are upholstered foundations, a bit dressy, but reasonably priced. Shown here: Magniflex Foundations https://www.themattressexpert.com/foundations_and_bases.html#/ Also recommended is a waterproof mattress protector, which prevents perspiration from seeping into the upholstery materials. Keeping your mattress clean and dry and will enhance the longevity of your mattress and keep it odor free. The Sleep & Beyond Organic Cotton Waterproof Mattress Protector is my recommendation…the one we use at home. It sleeps cool and works well.

Hi Pete,
I am in the market to replace my ancient queen mattress/box springs but am dealing with a couple of issues: 1) My husband and I are heavy people, around 200 lbs and are around the same height. We are both side sleepers. 2) I have back pain/degenerated discs and he has bad knees/feet. I suppose I am looking for something sturdy (resistant to sagging) that will address the pain issues. Neither likes a soft mattress. I would like to keep it around $3000. Thanks, Beth Hi Beth, There is a mattress that is made for heavy people, that will address your back pain, but not one that’s specifically designed to help with knees and feet. My wife and I are heavy. Each of us are more than 200 lbs. The mattress we have is over 10 years old and still in great shape. It was the best we could find while shopping at the industry trade shows…The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress. Shown here: Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress https://cc-mattress-llc.square.site/product/natura-greenspring-liberta-ultra-plush/92?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=true I have a very bad back, including degenerative & herniated discs. This mattress allows me to sleep & wake without back pain. It will do the same for you. (Due to the high quality of the components, it’s not as soft as it sounds.) If you need a new boxspring/foundation, I recommend the Magniflex KD Foundation, which comes in your choice of height, 5” or 8”, and in your choice of color…black, brown or gray.

I have a lot of sleep issues and need help choosing the right mattress. I've been an insomniac for more than 25 years. I am the lightest sleeper on the face of the Earth! If my boyfriend slightly moves a foot, I wake. Also, I have degenerative discs in my low back and if a mattress is not firm enough, my lower back kills the next day. I prefer to sleep on my stomach, but I toss throughout the night because of my back. I also have severe airborne allergies and my doctors have recommended that I get a new mattress and encase it in a product that keeps allergens and critters from entering and staying in the mattress. Can you recommend a product? In the 3 years I've been with my boyfriend I've only been able to successfully sleep with him when we stay at very nice hotels on very nice king beds. This is hard on a relationship when you can't sleep in the same bed! So, I have a lot of issues, please give me some recommendations for an appropriate king size bed. Thank you! Adrienne Hi Adrienne, Sleep & Beyond Zipper-On Waterproof Mattress Protector https://cc-mattress-llc.square.site/product/sleep-beyond-organic-cotton-waterproof-mattress-encasement-10-14-/6?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=true Most hotels have mattresses using an individually pocketed coil system. With the coils moving independently from one another, it greatly reduces motion transfer. A mattress with that coil unit and upholstered with pure, organic and hypoallergenic latex, which adds to motion reduction, provides comfort that doesn’t allow you to sink, and produces No Chemical off gassing…is the best you can do to address all of your concerns. We specialize in selling this type of mattresses. We have 3 options for you. The PlushBeds Luxury Bliss Mattress in Medium or Medium Firm. This mattress comes with a 100 Night Trial Period.

I wanted to let you know that we have been sleeping well. We received our Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress a couple of months ago. If I remember correctly, it’s the same mattress you and your wife sleep on at home. We hadn’t been sleeping well prior to getting this mattress, so it’s been quite a treat for us. Thanks for the recommendation…Alan Good Morning Alan, A good night’s sleep is the whole point of this exercise. I'm pleased to hear it worked so well for you and I appreciate you taking the time to write me to let me know. Everyone who has purchased that mattress report the same result…and there have been hundreds of them. For those of you who are reading this post, here’s a link to that mattress.

My husband and I are looking to replace (who knows how old) a mattress that is finally beginning to hurt our sleep. My friend recommended you highly, but we don't know what to buy. We have a queen bed and we are looking for mattress and box spring. I am heavy and have arthritis in my knee and hip -- my husband is tall and has some restless legs -- Can you make a suggestion for us. Jean Hello Jean, I can highly recommend the same mattress that my wife and I have been sleeping on for the past 10+ years…and still in excellent condition. The individually pocketed coils provide support that maintains the natural alignment of the body and spine…with the highest coil count available. And, Natural Talalay Latex Upholstery for long lasting comfort. Latex is and has been the best upholstery available, for the last 100+ years. The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush is that Mattress.

I'm a female 72 years. I'm a bit on the heavy side, but not obese. I have severe scoliosis and severe degenerative disc disease AND I also have both shoulders that need replacing and don't know if I'm ever going to be able to have that surgery. I presently have a memory foam mattress that is luxurious and "gives" with my body weight. I have had this mattress for a few years and it was quite expensive. However, I am now getting up in the mornings with terrific back pain and need to go lie on another bed in my home, stretch out and do some exercises before I can tolerate anything. Even after this, it takes awhile before I can function without moderate to severe pain. I NEED another type of mattress that will give me the support I need for my back, but that will give me some padding for my shoulders as well. I'm desperate. Can you suggest the type of mattress that would be best for me. Most sincerely, Judy Hi Judy, It’s the memory foam on top of your mattress that has failed you. Memory foam was specifically designed to need frequent replacing. The heavier parts of your body is sinking too far, which throws off the natural ailment of your spine, which is why you’re having so much pain. You have a couple of options. First, flip your mattress over. The flip side is made of high density polyurethane foam, which does not allow you to sink into it. It’s not comfortable, but your back will feel better immediately. Do that today and sleep on it tonight. Tomorrow, you’ll be in a better position to determine if you actually do need a new mattress, or just a soft topper to make that mattress comfortable. The topper option is far less expensive. If you decide on a topper, Pure Organic Latex is the best you can buy. Latex will not allow you to sink. The feel is one of floating. Latex for Less has the best prices. I recommend choice of 3” Soft. If you decide on a new mattress, then the best you can get is the same as the one my wife and I sleep on at home. You and I are the same age. I was diagnosed with bulging and herniated discs, along with Degenerative Disc Disease, about 20 years ago. We’ve had our mattress for more than 10 years, and it’s still in great shape. But more importantly, I have slept and awakened without back pain over these past 10+ years. The individually pocketed coils provide an independent suspension type of support that is ideal for relieving chronic back pain. The coil count is higher than any other brand. And it’s upholstered with Natural Talalay Latex. The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush is that mattress.

My husband and I are both overweight, and we both have back problems. I am looking for the best of the best mattress I can find. We need a king size that’s firm, comfortable and long lasting. I get confused and frustrated reading so many mixed reviews. Price is not a factor. Sleeping well without back pain is a factor. What do you recommend? Thanks, Lilith Hi Lilith, My wife and I are in the same boat as the two of you. While shopping at the industry trade shows, we came across the Natura of Canada Greenspring line of mattresses. I was so impressed by the high quality of the components, we decided to start selling them…and bought their Ultra Plush model for our home. That was more than 10 years ago, and our mattress still feels like new. The individually pocketed coils provide firm, contouring support that maintains the natural alignment of the body and spine. The coil count is higher than any other brand. I had been diagnosed with DDD, bulging and herniated discs, about 20 years ago. Since sleeping on this mattress, I sleep and wake without back pain. Due to the high quality of the components, all four of their choices of comfort are firmer than they sound. I recommend the Ultra Plush for a nice balance of firm support and surface comfort. That and the longevity are well proven. These mattresses come with White Glove Delivery, which includes setup in your bedroom and removal of all packaging materials. Here’s a link to that line of mattresses. Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattresses https://www.themattressexpert.com/natura_mattresses.html#/ You never want to put a new mattress on an old foundation.

On the advice of the salesman, I got a Tempur-Pedic mattress hoping it will cure the problem. However, that has not happened.
What went wrong? What do you recommend? Thanks, Cal Hi Cal, Memory Foam, the upholstery material used by Tempur-Pedic, is where you went wrong. Salespeople push it, as if it were the best thing since sliced bread…the be all to end all…solving all your problems. Memory foam is, in fact, the worst upholstery material ever invented. It’s a temperature sensitive material that softens after reacting to your body’s heat…allowing the heavier parts of your body to sink further than your extremities. The result? Your body is no longer in its proper alignment. Back pain increases. Extremities go numb. Avoiding any mattress upholstered with memory foam is key. But there’s more: While there are better foams from which to choose, no all foam mattress will provide the pushback support a damaged back requires. An individually pocketed coil system will maintain the natural alignment of your body and spine. THIS, more than anything else, is the key to relieving chronic back pain. A mattress like this that’s upholstered with Natural Latex, will provide long ladder relief, as latex being the most resilient upholstery material…ever. I highly recommend the same mattress my wife and I sleep on at home. I have had a very bad back for more than 20 years. We’ve had our mattress for 10+ years. In all this time, I sleep and wake without back pain. We’ve sold a countless number of these mattresses to people who suffer from this type of pain…All experienced relief. The Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattress comes in 4 choices of comfort, with the Ultra Plush model being the most comfortable. Due to the high quality of the components, all are firmer than they sound. We have the ultra plush at home. It is not a soft mattress. As old as ours is, it’s still like new with each of us weighing more than 200. These mattresses come with White Glove Delivery Delivery includes: setup in your bedroom and removal of all packaging materials.

What mattress do you recommend for a 350 lb,. 6ft man who wants a long lasting twin-xl due to space, very firm? Thanks, Bubba Hi Bubba, The highest quality mattress that’s also extremely firm, is the Natura of Canada Greenspring in Firm. There are 4 choices of comfort and all are firmer than they sound…firmer than other brand mattresses with the same firmness designations. For instance: my wife and I, each exceeding 200 lbs., have been sleeping on the Ultra Plush model for more than 10 years…still in like new condition. Here’s a link to that line of mattresses: Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattresses https://www.themattressexpert.com/natura_mattresses.html#/ The “Firm” model is downright hard. You might need a topper to soften it. I recommend waiting until you’ve slept on your new mattress before deciding if you need to soften it. If so, Latex for Less has the lowest prices on the highest quality, Pure, Organic & Hypoallergenic Latex Mattress Toppers.
