Hi Pete,
I’m in the market for a new replacement mattress. My current mattress is a Simmons Beautyrest Advantage. I know they’ve been discontinued for quite some time. On the tag it says the model is M23011.60.7405. I know it’s a shot in the dark but would you know if they carry something similar? I don’t even know where to begin looking!! Thank you for any help you can provide! Adam Hi Adam, Simmons was sold in 2016 to an investment group that also bought Serta. The upholstery material was changed to a cheap memory foam that is designed to cause mattresses to need more frequent replacing. Trading off the name that had been known for quality, they’re dependent on prior customers who assume that the quality is still there. Their quality isn’t even close to what it had been. Simmons had been using polyurethane, latex…and in their later years, prior to being sold, a very high grade of memory foam. Simmons had always been famous for their individually pocketed coil system, which provides an independent suspension type of support that maintains the natural alignment of the body and spine. THIS, more than anything else is what makes your Beautyrest so comfortable. The key to your next successful purchase is in finding a mattress that has that same type of coil system with no memory foam in it. Having been in this business for more than a half century, I recommend only non-memory foam mattresses. I have 2 mattresses to offer you that have an individually pocketed coil system and are upholstered with latex foam. Latex is and has been the best upholstery material for more than a century. Each of the mattresses I’ll be recommending include different services. Most Popular…PlushBeds Luxury Bliss Mattress. Pocketed coils and pure, organic and hypoallergenic latex upholstery… completely chemical free. This mattress includes: A 100 Night Money Back Trial Period It’s Available in Medium or Medium Firm.

My wife and I are large people, over 200 lbs each. This is the mattress we recommend for that weight range. As you’ll see from the link, there are 3 other choices of comfort. These firmer models are recommended even heavier weight people. These mattresses come with white glove delivery… setup in your bedroom and all packaging materials removed.

Hi Pete,I am in my late 50s and have been having mid-shoulder and right hip pain for a couple of years now. I sleep on my side (usually my right side). My husband sleeps on his back and has no problems. But our expensive, pillow-top bed is 15 years old now, and I can see where it sags in the middle on my side. We weigh 140/147 lbs, respectively. A friend warned me to stay away from a memory foam mattresses because she said that when she'd turn over at night, the foam wouldn't adjust quickly enough to match her body shape and she'd feel uncomfortable and wake up. We can afford a high quality bed but I don't know what to get. What would you suggest? Thanks, Patricia Hi Patricia, Your friend is right about memory foam, but there are several more reasons why a memory foam mattress is a bad choice. it sleeps hot, wears quickly and off gasses the toxic chemicals from which it’s made. Also, this business of being able to afford an expensive mattress is something I'd suggest keeping to yourself when you go shopping. Once said, you'll notice a change in behavior of most salespeople. The giddy anticipation of an easy kill from a pack of hyenas. Ok, that might be a slight exaggeration when it comes to their outward behavior is concerned, but not about how they're feeling inside. At your sizes, an expensive mattress isn’t necessary. It's better for you, and your long term comfort, to stay with something more moderately priced. You got 15 years from a pillowtop made 15 years ago. You'd be lucky to get 5 from most made today, thanks to all the memory foam being used. There are a couple of good choices for mattress....for their durability, support & comfort, without memory foam & without pillowtops. The PlushBeds Luxury Bliss Mattress in Medium.

I have a 20 year old Simmons Beautyrest Pillowtop Mattress that needs replacing. I started shopping for a new Simmons Beautyrest, but found a lot of horrible reviews, saying that they developed deep impressions, that they smell bad and that they make people feel hot. I didn’t have any of those problems with mine, and don’t want them now. What happened? And where can I find one more like mine? Thanks, Alicia Hi Alicia, What Happened! Simmons was sold to an investment group that also bought Serta, in 2016. The focus shifted from quality to quantity… their greedy desire to sell more mattresses more frequently to the same customers. Memory foam is what they’re using to achieve their goals. Your mattress has no memory foam in it, which is why it lasted for so long. Back then, Simmons used polyurethane and latex foams. My recommendation is for the PlushBeds Signature Bliss Pillowtop Mattress Shown here: PlushBeds Signature Bliss Pillowtop Mattress https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=2568212&u=4342051&m=62252&urllink=&afftrack= This mattress uses the same type of individually pocketed coil system that your mattress has. The upholstery is Pure, Organic and Hypoallergenic Latex foam, which resists body impressions, has no chemicals to off gas, (which is why memory foam smells bad), and sleeps cool. Latex has been the best, longest lasting upholstery material for the last 100 years. This mattress comes with: * Fast, Free Delivery * 100 Night Money Back Comfort Guarantee * 12 Months Interest Free Financing to qualified buyers * PayPal is Accepted You’ll love this mattress just as much as you did yours, and for many years.

We are looking for a new mattress. It will be for occasional use. We meet family at their vacation home several times per year. They have a room for us but we provide the furniture as a thank you. In our house we have a Natura Greenspring Ultra Plush with a 2" latex topper that we purchased from you several years ago. We love it and it's still in great shape, however the price now higher than what we paid for ours. So I was wondering what suggestions you might have. We would like something similar to our Greenspring. I like slightly firm but my wife wouldn't mind something a little softer. I don't care for memory foam as I am a side sleeper and softer beds make my back ache. We want something that is a good quality and that will last a long time. But like I said, it will only be used maybe 60 days per year at most. Let me know what you think. Thank you, John Hi John, Welcome back. I’m happy to hear you’ve been enjoying your mattress. My wife and I have the same one. It’s 11 years old, now, and still in great shape. You can expect many more years from yours. I have an excellent option for you. The PlushBeds Luxury Bliss Mattress in Medium Firm will provide you with very similar support, like what you’ve been using… also with a pocketed coil and latex upholstery… very much like your Greenspring. It’s not as substantial. But then it doesn’t need to be for the use it will be getting. Add to that, a Latex for Less 2” Soft Latex Topper, and everybody’s happy. (I recommend getting the optional organic cotton cover for it) Here are the links you’ll need to view specifications and pricing.

I’ve been having a hard time buying a comfortable mattress that doesn’t break down. Until I found your blog, I couldn’t understand why. It’s the memory foam. When I shop at stores, they hype that stuff as though it were the latest, greatest product available. It’s nothing but junk. I’m looking for a super comfy pillowtop mattress with NO MEMORY FOAM in it. After reading your blog posts, I’m confident that you won’t steer me wrong. What do you recommend? Thanks, Pauline Hi Pauline, You are correct. It’s memory foam that you need to avoid. The very best upholstery material is Latex Foam… and has been for more than 100 years. Pure, Organic and Hypoallergenic Latex won’t allow your body to sink, like what you’ve been experiencing with mattresses upholstered with memory foam. Latex is extremely comfortable and incredibly resilient at the same time. Mattresses upholstered with pure latex tend to remain like new for many years. My recommendation is for the PlushBeds Organic Bliss Pillowtop Latex Mattress Click on this link: PlushBeds Organic Bliss Pillowtop Latex Mattress https://shrsl.com/4wvwa As you’ve asked for, it’s Super Comfy and extremely long lasting. Delivery is Fast and Free It comes with a 100 Night Money Back Comfort Guarantee, and if needed, 0% Interest Free Financing for 12 Months if you qualify. And… It’s currently On Sale ******************************** Recommended related items that are commonly needed: Headboards & Platform Beds https://www.themattressexpert.com/furniture.html#/ Foundations https://www.themattressexpert.com/foundations.html#/ Bed Frames https://www.themattressexpert.com/bed_frames.html#/ Organic Cotton Waterproof Mattress Protector https://www.themattressexpert.com/sleep_and_beyond_protectors_and_encasements. ********************************* Visit our website for other related products TME Website: https://themattressexpert.com/ Thanks, Pete - TME Delivery is Always Free Online Ordering is Easy & Secure.

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.

Thank you for the information you give to everyone on your blogs. I have a herniated disc like someone you told to get a PlushBeds Mattress. And, also like that other man, I did not want to spend much more than around $1,500 give or take. However, I weigh 266 pounds. I don't know if you would recommend the same mattress for me. Any guidance that you can provide would be appreciated. Thanks, Jake Hi Jake, For someone of your size, I recommend the Natura of Canada Greenspring Mattresses. And while these mattresses are more expensive, the much higher coil count provides support that will hold up longer under that kind of weight. In the long run, it’ll end up costing you less per year. The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush is their most comfortable mattress, without being too soft. (All of their mattresses are firmer than they sound…firmer than other mattresses with the same comfort designations.) My wife and I have been sleeping on that mattress for more than 10 years. It’s still in great condition, despite the fact that each of us weighs more than 200 lbs. Here’s a link to that line of mattresses: https://www.themattressexpert.com/natura_mattresses.html#/ These mattresses come with White Glove Delivery. If going with the PlushBeds Mattress, I recommend going with the choice of Medium Firm and adding a 2” Soft Latex Topper. Here are links to that mattress and the Latex for Less Pure, Organic and Hypoallergenic Latex Toppers: https://www.plushbeds.com/products/12-luxury-bliss-natural-latex-mattress-with-encased-coils?sscid=71k8_pjs8o&utm_source=share-a-sale&utm_campaign=4342051&variant=31705061687394 https://www.latexforless.com/products/latex-topper?variant=134346899481&sscid=71k8_rmsu0&utm_source=share-a-sale&utm_campaign=4342051 If you need a new foundation, as well, I recommend the Magniflex KD Foundation, which comes in your choice of height and color.
