I think Simmons designed this one to feel good in the store, and not at home.  My guess is that you get that mattress home, and you will wake up after 8 hours of sleep feeling very sore due to lack of support.

In addition, $4,200 sounds like way too much for a foam bed.  Try foambymail.com for much lower prices.

I agree with cloud9 about split configuration.  At most, get the top layer non-split, but even that is probably not necessary.

Good luck, and let us know what you do....

Well, if it was a small company bought by Simmons, then I doubt they had Foamex custom-make a foam. So..

1. 4lb foam

2. Open cell structure

3. Slower than regular memory foam

4. Patented chamber process

= Aerus

If it's 4 lb foam then I agree.

I don't know how small Comfor-Pedic was in relation to Sleep-Aid, which does sell memory foam custom made for them by Foamex.

3. Did you mean to say Faster?...

My guess is that Simmons is using a memory foam that's made specifically for them by Foamex. Foamex already makes a special foam for Sleep-Aid that falls somewhere in between Aerus and Sensus. Foamex has been doing this long enough that they can make about anything a company the size of Simmons would want.

Let me throw out the name Perfection Mattress. The composition of their mattress is not specifically stated on their website, but when I talked to Lee (the owner) some weeks ago, it was 6" of natural Sri Lankan latex with 3" of Venus memory foam. It's the only mattress I know of using Venus foam, and it uses a whopping 3" of it....

I wonder if Simmons is using Venus foam.

Is there something which leads you to believe they might be?...

Steve, did you try the other (thinner) mattresses? Were they not plush enough?...

Steve, was this (Mystere) the one you were looking at? Did you try the other ones? It looks like they offer different thicknesses of memo foam and latex....

That's the one. It is a little thicker than than other ones. I think the next one down has 3.5" of memory foam. 4.5" of memory foam seems like way too much, but you don't sink in too far - it's different. Simmons resently bought this line from another company, so it would probably be tough to say where the memory foam comes from....

Has anyone put together a mattress with PU base, latex in the middle, and memory foam on top? I was laying on a Simmons ComforPedic the other day with this configuration. It felt like Temperpedic support laying in it, but it didn’t have that hard feel when you roll over or sit on it – it actually had a little spring to it. When I was looking at it in a showroom, I was able to see some of the specs on the sheet the sales person was holding:

    Top layer: 4.5” 5.5lb memory foam – ILD unknown, but possibly 2 different foam ILDs (springs back faster than Temperpedic)
    Middle layer: 2" 24 ILD latex (said it was to dissipate heat)
    Bottom: 7" 30 ILD foam (I'm assuming it's PU, but I'm not sure???)

From what I've been reading about foam lately, I thought a combination like this would be too...

Hi.  Just found this forum & could use some help.       I recently replaced my OLD mattress with a Simmons world class spirit plush from mattress giant.  At the show room it felt great, but at home it feels to firm.  I'm a side sleeper.  Can't sleep on this thing on my side, very uncomfortable.  On my back it feels fine.   iv'e had it for 30 days as of today.  The store has a 1 time exchange policy.   The manager suggested a Kingsdown.   Of course it will cost me more money.  Around $500  with delivery & stain protection.   Is it smarter to just buy a latex topper ?  The kingsdown has a 20 year warranty.   Toppers have a 1 year or less ?    Thanks for your input.....
