Hey Budgy,

 

Not asking this to be controversial or at all grumpy- just asking as I continue my own search. As you've probably read, I too had had problems with a pillow top bed (no surprise there- lesson learned- just wish I'd found this board before that mistake). I love everything about latex on paper, but in real life I just could not adjust to the 'push back'- but, I think I had an all latex from SleepEZ that ultimately was just too firm. And, while I do love the 'cush' of a nice memory foam, our Sealy Embody is mushing on us far too quickly :( That is unfortunate, bc I loved the feel of this mattress for a few months and now it's just so so. Many mornings I have pretty bad back...

Maybe you can order BOTH ILDs and pay the extra shipping that this entails, including return shipping?

It's hard to offer specific advice since we know so little about the parameters of what else you've gone through to get to where you are, and what sleeping systems you rejected in the past. That being said, there's the oft repeated adage that it's easier to make a firmer mattress softer, than it is to make a softer one firmer. With that in mind, and not wishing to place your future sleeping comfort on a roll of the dice, it may make sense to go with the firmer topper. It alone might solve your comfort problem. If it doesn't (and you cant return the entire mattress) all isn't lost as you'll still have a nice 8" mattress that needs a little more softness in the comfort layer and which can...

Folks, 

 

I sure could use some help trying to figure out which Tempur-Pedic mattress to purchase. Candidly, I’m overwhelmed by the number of different systems they offer, and not sure what to do. The mattress will replace a 7 year old Sleep-By-Number bed that frankly I never liked. Both my wife and I wake up with lower back pain almost every morning, along with some other aches and pains in the shoulders and neck. On my SBN bed, I usually have it set at 85, my wife keeps her setting around 50. We are both in our early 40’s, tall and in decent physical shape… 

My biggest worry is trying to figure out the proper balance of firmness, while not feeling like I’m sleeping on concrete. Support, given our back pain...

Sounds like you may have been hurting for awhile! I slept on pocketed coils for several years (I am lazy and do not want to go through the motions of switching out layers and trial and error... mainly because I do not have the time to do so and do not experience any major issues over the last several years) and have slept well withou paying the high prices in the $2k+ range.

I have also sold pocketed coils in Serta, Sealy, Stearns & Foster and Simmons. They each have very specific profiles on feel and there are some companies in the NorthWest that can help you custom fit the sleep system to your needs. In order to not sell myself, I will refrain from listing my company here, but if your salesperson or consultant does not walk you through a series of questions concerning you and your pain(s),...

I have been in the mattress industry about 5 years and like some of my colleagues (definitely not all) I find much more joy in having fewer exchanges and a greater number of phone calls from my clients 2-3 months after purchase saying, "I really am sleeping so much better! Thank-you!" To get to this point in my Sleep Consultant career, here is my method (which you should expect to take you 45 - 90 minutes depending on your needs, issues, differences of opinion between you and your partner, finances, etc.

I've chronicled my recent mattress shopping adventures/nightmare in agonizing detail all over this site.

 

But I am back to comment on this Latex thread.

First, hardly anyone seems to mention that the Latex seems to sleep HOT.  I know, I know, it's not supposed to...only Memory Foam is hot.                                                                     But I am absolutely convinced that our new S&F  Latex bed is much warmer than previous, old mattress.  True, it has a pillowtop -- and I suspect that is part of the problem.                 But I also think the Latex itself is an issue -- it doesn't breathe.   What do the experts/salespeople have to say about this?  Better yet, what do actual buyers have to say?            Because I don't trust anyone in the industry.

I also think the Latex...

Re: Any one have or heard of Enso Sleep Systems? - gonzalea

I just purchased an ENZO Galaxy and have been sleeping on it for about 6 weeks now. It is supposed to be one of their softest mattresses. I was considering a Temperpedic or a Seta iComfort but after looking at their prices, I settled for the ENZO.

The first day I slept on it, I was ready to take it back however; the store had told me to give it 24 hours to fully expand from the plastic it came in. So day two was better but still not impressed. Day three was much better and after that; it really took about two weeks to get used to it.

I now love this mattress and can't imagine sleeping on any other memory foam mattress. Don't let the reasonable price fool you. This mattress is worth every dollar and then some. I don't think I will ever...

>>1) Besides what I stated above, is there a way to evaluate how solid and flat your core is?

From what you have posted, the core is individual coils wrapped in foam.  That construction probably relies on the foundation below for support and flatness.  And individual coils can tend to push back at you individually... sort of like each coil beating you like a roll of quarters as you move about.  This is all covered by lots of soft foam, which is proably not offering much comfort or isolation.  All in all, not a system worth building on, imo.

>>2)  Since you seem to understand this stuff, do the specs above assert that the core is basically good (seperate from the foam; or does the foam interfer too much for it matter?)?

Core construction is not good, imo.  I'm envisioning a foam...

Hello,  I am Anthony and am a retailer of Carpe Diem Beds, Tempur-Pedic, Hastens, Simmons Black, etc.. Of course I have vested interest in Carpe Diem, so I will give you fact and not my opinion.

 

It is very easy to assume a sleep set is overpriced when you hear it retails for tens of thousands of dollars, I at one point thought so myself. However lets brake down how a Carpe Diem Bed is made and compare it to any other sleep system.

 

We will start with other sleep systems. Take Tempur-Pedic and Sterns and Foster. Two very different mattresses, however they both utilize an idea of using a soft material to comfort the body and a harder material to support the body. Let’s think about that for a moment. I'm not a big guy at 5'8" and 170lbs....

Re: Latex over coil mattress question - zen4life

So, I checked out a Shifman Mattress and was impressed by the quality and level of firmness and am now considering one of them and just adding a 3" latex topper for the comfort layer.  A couple reasons this may be a better option than the Jamestown Custom Build :

1) The Shifman is a 2-sided mattress and known for its longevity so "should" last longer.
 
2) Believe it or not, buying a low (less padding/heavy gauge Bonnel spring) to mid level Shifman (double the padding/heavy steel hi-profile double offset unit) and adding a 500 dollar 3" high quality topper is less expensive overall.
 
The one upside (maybe?) to the Jamestown is it uses a zoned pocket coil system. However, in reading about zoned systems and such, I get the feeling for some people zoning is not needed and...
