Re: Have you tried the Dream Coil topper yet? - Lynn2006

Before I had my FloBed with the 10" legs that is now just the right height for me, I had returned the Rockaway Bed that besides being very allergic to it, I found it way too soft (Simmns Rooosevelt Luxury Firm with a suede top over polyurethane/man made latex) and it was way too high for me and I hated having to jump to get on and off of it. I love how I can put my shoes on at the end of my bed since it is low enough but looks tall enough to be grown-up looking with my Wesley Allen headboard. Being that I am not quite 5 feet, the Simmons bed was just way too high up that I felt scared I would fall off of it. I also found I disliked having a metal frame with wheels since I had a platform bed for 14 years....

You're correct, Mattressman. I was just saying that Leggett and Platt make a lot of coils and I just copied and pasted a statement. But, as you said, there are numerous types of coils and not all mattresses are created equal from the inside out in that regard. That said, a person could drive themselves crazy trying to figure it all out. My advice is just to go with what feels good to YOU and be less concerned with coil types, count and guages. I would be more worried about the kinds of cheap foams that are placed OVER those coils. I think ultimately this is what does most of the damage on our mattresses AND our bodies.

I would say that almost all mattresses are made with Leggett & Platt coil systems, as well as other components. Sure, there are some like McRoskey who manufacture their own. But, most companies use those made by L&P. And, they also make the pocketed coils for Simmons. The mattress companies won't necessarily show the name Leggett & Platt. You can always ask the mattress salesperson (IF they even know!) Here is something I found online:
"Leggett & Platt makes innersprings for nearly all of the mattress companies, so essentially it is the same coil system in all of them. Leggett &

Leggett & Platt makes most coil springs. You can get an idea of what they are at this link.(below) I happen to have the LuraFlex open offset coils which are conforming, but also supportive. I didn't care for the individual pocketed springs like you see in Simmons.
You'll see the different coils listed in red on the left of the page.

Serta uses a continuous coil. Many will have a variation of something you see here at L&P. McRoskey makes their own coils.

Here's a Sager66 post from a couple of months ago:
"The additional expense may not be justified, but a Simmons EverNu hotel mattress might be an option (if available to individual consumers). At least you could unzip the top and experiment with different latex and memory foam comfort layers."

One of the problems is, in my experience, that the mattress they deliver to your house feels nothing like the one you tried in the store. Whether the floor model has been broken in by hundreds of people laying on it over months (or years), or whether they have a special floor model as a "bait and switch" -- I'm getting into conspiracy theories here ;-) -- who knows.
The second mattress we got in our comfort exchange (we ended up with a third after returning this one) was a plush firm Simmons World Class that felt like the perfect thing in the store, but felt like we were sleeping on the sidewalk on the one they delivered to the house. Even with a couple of toppers (and a ladder to get into bed) it was still as hard as a rock. I spent several nights on the couch until...

Those are the 2 major companies who make their own coils and, yes, Leggett makes most of the rest of the manufacturers coils for them.
The statement that all the coils are the same because they are made by the same company is akin to saying all Chevrolet cars are the same because they are made by the same company. Leggett makes coils, to spec, for most of the major companies in the US. "TO SPEC" being the most important phrase in this statement. Serta has their own coil made by Leggett, but Serta holds a...

thanks everyone.
No, we don't have originalmattress near us. I looked at the Leggett Platt page however it would have been nice had I found a place where it shows what products use their springs. I'm sorry to say I still don't exactly know what defines a 'good' coil spring mattress as far as specifications go. Am I to understand that none of the big S companies offer such a thing (if you buy one with minimal padding)? I can't afford a Shifman or other handmade mattress. The only thing I think I understand is to stay away from the Simmons pocket coil system.
Our old S/F mattress still feels uber-firm to me, just sags, which I would think is mostly because of the padding failure but who knows.
I was hoping to find a brand that is readily available. If anyone has more input on this I'd still appreciate it. I still...
