Search Results For "Simmons"

The Arrowind uses the Smart Response Simmons coil that they introduced about a year ago. My experience with it has been exemplary and it is arguably one of the better coils on the market today.

 

That said, the specific model you're looking at is ROCK HARD. It will NOT get much softer. What position do you sleep in? If it's side (the most common) this is likely a horrible choice for you.

 

The support in the Arrowind is not the question. The concern I have is with the pressure relief. Your best option (short of trying the bed for 30 days) is to wear some comfortable clothes and go lie down on the thing for 30 minutes without a salesguy yapping in your ear. If you can do that without feeling the need to turn that's a good sign.

What about a Comforpedic?  Or one of their "NaturalCare" latex mattresses?

I agree that a coil mattress might be the way to go.  We've been sleeping on a Simmons Beautyrest World Class Felicuty Plush for 12 years, and it has been a good mattress.  Now it's time to look for a new one, and I think I will look at the Restonic since it's less expensive than Simmons.  BTW, I am 140, 5' 3' ,have side thigh pain and am a side sleeper, so I need to keep this in mind when shopping. Hubby is 5'9". 165 lb.  Weight isn't really an issue for us.

ok I have finally given in to the fact that my 5 month old Serta I Comfort Prodigy was the culprit of my hip pain and much more.. have left the bed for a 25 year old in the guest room and hip pain gone..unreal.. am out major dollars and now looking at a good coil mattress..found one that felt good and the company I am dealing with says a complete refund if after 30 days you are not liking it..however want to know if anyone is happy with their Simmons or what the story is with these.. I have never laid on so many uncomfortable mattresses as I did yesterday..and these are not cheap ones..  AND... this same mattress with the refund deal is 1000 more than online.. what a mark-up these bandits have...if I don't find something for me to sleep on soon my husband will commit me..!!...

Hi sstchur,

I can't say that I have any excellent advice, other than to really test out different beds by laying on them for at least five minutes.

The S-brands (i.e., Simmons, Sealy, et al.) are not favorited on this board, for the most part, based on my searches of the archives, but mainly due to the fact that they fail so quickly after a few years (e.g., sagging, lack of support)

If you search the DIY threads, that may be what you're looking for, especially since you and your wife require different types of support.

My friend has a gel-memory foam topper she got from Costco that she really likes, especially to "chill" the temperapedic she bought (it "sleeps hot" - a common phrase you'll see here). I think people purchase latex toppers from Foam by Mail (FBM) or Sleepez. You...

Hi all,

I'm slowly beginnig to educate myself on mattress (mostly the hard way -- my $2000 piece of junk sleep number is my 3rd bed that I'll be returning and cutting my losses on).  I'm finally at a point where I think the best option would be to get a good quality, very firm mattress and then put a high quality topper on it to make it feel softer (which my wife greatly prefers).

Wondering if anyone can offer some suggestions?  I've been looking at this one: http://www.us-mattress.com/simmons-tomahawk-firm-queen.html

Not too expensive, looks to be firm, and has lots of positive reviews.  Would that be a descent choice?

As for a topper, where's a good place to buy online?  Trustworthy with good customer service?  I figure there is always the old standby Costco b/c of their great return policy, and they...

First of all, I'd like to thank all the contributors to this site for all of their experience and insight. The assemilateed knowledge that I've obtained through everyone's posts are invalueable. I've read all of the "sticky" matress surgery posts and gleened alot of information about their decisions and why they went with what they did.

My mattress is a Simmons Beautyrest Classic (Gladstone Falls) and it's only 4.5 years old. My wife and I have had back aches that have gotten exponentially worse since the start of this year and sleeping on differnet mattresses and having less/no pain leads us to believe that our matress is the source of these pains. Since my mattress is still relatively young, I'd like to think that I could salvage the "core" of my matress (everything below the foam) without any issue.

I...
