Replacing an Old Sealy Posturpedic Birch Bridge Mattress

​Hi Pete, 
Can you suggest a replacement for an old Sealy Posturpedic Birch Bridge Latex Mattress? 
Thanks, Theresa


Hi Theresa,
A google search produced nothing for that particular model.
Model names for that same mattress would have been different at every store that carried it, at the time you bought it.

How old is it? And what’s in it?
This information can be found on the white law label that’s sewn into one of the seams at the head end of the mattress.

Since this mattress is most likely no longer being made, and since Sealy was sold 12 years ago, Sealy won’t have one like it. Their quality is no longer as good, since 
Tempur-Pedic bought them.

A recommendation for something similar would have to come from a different brand…if there is one.

How old are the people who are using the mattress?
What are the sizes of the people, heights and weights…more or less?
Are there any physical ailments that need to be addressed?


All of this information will help me to recommend a mattress to you that’s best suited to your needs.Thanks, Pete - TME

Hi Pete,
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.
We are both 60 years old, side sleepers 140 and 180 pounds. 
We like soft feeling mattress, but on the medium to firm side. No pillow top. 
The one we have is comfortable but I thought it was all latex ,but after checking that label, see now that it’s 41% latex and 56% polyurethane foam. 
Any suggestions appreciated. 
Thanks again, Theresa

Hi Theresa,
Thank you. That’s all very helpful information.
As the years go by, we all tend to develop worn discs in our spines.
At 60 years of age, this is more likely to be the case than not.
For this reason, I don’t recommend an all foam mattress…not even latex, which is the best of all the foams.

Instead of the polyurethane, which is now supporting the latex in your mattress, 
I recommend an individually pocketed coil system .
These coils provide the pushback support against your spine that keeps everything in place…your backs and spines properly aligned.
This is something that no all foam mattress can do.
A mattress with individually pocketed coils and pure, organic latex upholstery will provide the kind of comfort that you’ve been used to and better support.

Pure latex is extremely resilient, so the one I’m recommending won’t be too soft, even though it’s rated as plush.
The Williams Kingston Plush Mattress is that recommendation.
It comes with white glove delivery, which includes setup in your bedroom and removal of your old mattress and all packaging materials.

If you’re using a matching boxspring that’s the same age, you’ll need to replace that, as well. Putting a new mattress on an old boxspring will immediately void the warranty of any mattress.
If you have a platform bed instead of a boxspring, then all you need is the mattress.


If you do need a new foundation,
I recommend the Magniflex KD Foundation.
It assembles easily without the need of tools. 
It’s available in 2 heights, 5” or 8”…and your choice of 3 colors.

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 any  mattress and keep it odor free.

The foundation and mattress protector ship quickly.
The mattress can take a few weeks to arrive.
