Yes, one of the things I'm factoring in is ability to customize 2 halves of the bed, so it is important.

 

Another thing I wanted to ask but forgot was sleeping hot. Thanks to slpngoc for bringing that up. Essentia claims that their mattresses sleep 80% (if I'm not mistaken) cooler than other organic layex mattresses. I personally absolutely hate it when I'm even a little bit warm (my wife is the opposite), so I often don't even use comforter. What is everyone's experience with that? 

slpngoc , when you said the # of layers double for queen/king size beds, what do you mean? God to know I may not need go for 4 layers and 3 may be enough (I'm just under 160lbs and my wife is about 100).

With regards to comparing GreenSleep to Natura its pretty different.  Natura does not offer any innerspring mattresses that are near the quality of the Green Sleep models...in truth the only other brand that I know of that does an all latex pillow top in conjunction with a spring system that can really compare to what GreenSleep has availabe is Carpe Diem, although they are not a certified organic mattress either (although still natural).  

I would not say that the GreenSleep foundations are absolutely required but it is one of the things that really sets them apart from the rest of the crowd.  All of the worlds best beds have flexible base systems, whether or not you will notice a tremendous difference is hard to say.  One thing is for sure when you look at the mattress only pricing they really blow away a lot of their competition...

1)  Original poster - are you using a comforter as a top layer?   If so, shelve it.  Go get a thin quilt instead.  Quilts are typically about a 1/4" thick or so.  They work well and are much cooler.

2) Not sure why you guys just don't want memory foam.   Sleeping too warm is a complete non-issue on my 60 day old TP Cloud.  In September, there were a bunch of nights where room was 80 F.  It was a little warm, but I did ok.  If the room is 65 F to high 70's, it's still great.  They have single or dual air flow 'systems' which seem to work fine for me.   TP Cloud is best mattress for me in 5 mattresses I had in house this year (Select Sleep, Stearns and Foster, iComfort, SleepEZ and now TP).

Folks

While I'm a newby to this forum and as well as the DIY mattress symposium, I would like to offer my comments on the matter. If the customer is sold any product by misleading means then the seller has a responsibility to make said product right by the customer. That means a refund of the full price or some recompense depending on the customer's wishes. I would like to state, that I recently purchased one of these beds. I've been sleeping on a wave less-water bed for nearly 30 years. While they provide good support the minuses became too much. So I went looking for a new mattress that would offer the same support as a water bed mattress as well as allow me to keep the expensive frame and headboard from the waterbed. For those not in the know concerning water beads and their foundation systems,...

It looks like this is the place to come!  We have a 20 year old Simmons Beautyrest, which has served us well. But it's 20 years old and the pains have started.  We went last weekend to Bedrooms and More, and tried a few.  The one that seemed the most comfortable was an Englander 5003, which is 100% natural dunlop latex with a bit of quilting on top.  I know there are some unfavorable reviews of Englander in general, but the folks at Bedrooms and More say their Englanders are made specially for them and sagging won't be an issue.  A queen set is $1,799.

I also emailed Bob at the 6 Day Mattress Store (good reviews on Yelp) and he has a Dunlop made by Emerald Sleep Systems in Tacoma for $999, and Pure Bliss Talalay products, starting at $1,399 (not sure if that's queen or not). ...

After looking at the mattress link to Sears that you posted, I should warn you that the mattress listed is designed in Sealy's line-up as a promotional (albeit, higher up than the first few beds in their line-up) and since you had your last bed for 20 years, you will be discouraged by the duration of the life of this mattress. I sold this line-up (under different names of course, but the specs are the same). The warranty, at least in this case, is a pretty good indicator of the durability of this level of mattress. Since $800 is your budget and you are concerned about the $522 price tag for a mat only, I would tell you a couple of things:

  • The coils used in this bed are actually the same coils Sealy used to use in their Posturepedic line-up (full 10 year warranty...
Re: Box springs.. are they all the same? - GuyMakesSense
Dec 11, 2011 2:34 PM
3 basic boxspring/foundation design:

  • wood base pattern with wood framing construction, covered by cardboard or "padding" and very little flex...usually inexpensive (1-5 yrs warranty or a 10yr pro-rated warranty)
  • wood base pattern with wire grid (varying patterns), more flex, can range drastically and usually work better with coil systems that are very bouncy helping to reduce the amount of "liveliness" in the mattress (10 year warranty like Simmons and S&F, Serta offers a 20 yr version w/iComfort and Perfect Day)
  • all wood construction with 20+ years warranty and non-flexing, non-yielding and is best suited for ANY latex, memory/visco, pocketed coil... while they come automatically with the Tempurpedic, you can still use one when purchased separate form your mattress

Stearns is the middle one, very heavy duty for this design, but, in my opinion, when there...

I don't know about other people. But I got the softest latex mattress and it is killing me. I am returning it. I got taken in by the salesmen pitch.

I now have shoulder pains with I did not have before I bought this. I sleep on polyurethane sofa which does not pushback.

 

 

I have tried tempurpedic beds. I found that basic cloud is too firm for me. The other cloud series - I sink in too much and am touching the base foam. I have tried the contour series. I find them too firm for me. I have tried Rhapsody at...

Re: Is 1,024 Coil Density good? - GuyMakesSense
Nov 22, 2011 9:54 AM
Coil density is relative to the other beds from that manufacturer. The coil gauge sounds like it is average and , depending on being tempered or not, should give you good support. Let me give you an example of the first comment to help:

In Simmons Beuatyrest beds, they have had 6 model lines for awhile; Studio, Classic, Anniversary, World Class, Excepsionale and Black. Note the differences below: (specs are in a queen size and all coils use high carbon steel)

  • Studio: 713 coils, 6" coil, 13 gauge and no added edge support
  • Classic: 800 coils, 8" coil, 15-1/1 gauge throughout with 2 rows of 13 gauge on the left and right for edge support (firm option maybe 13 gauge throughout)
  • Anniversary: 850 coils, 8" coil, 15-1/2 gauge with a 3" foam edge all the way...
Re: What's the best mattress for a side-sleeper with left leg pain and right shoulder tenderness? - GuyMakesSense
Nov 20, 2011 3:22 PM
Absolutely!

The alignment of the back is very intricate. The lower back is not just supported by the space directly underneath it, it is in conjunction with the position of the legs to the pelvis. Try this:

Lay down on the floor on your side without a pillow or anything... try to have a mirror somewhere that you could see while laying down. Notice that your waist area sinks down to the floor so that there are no gaps. Your top leg also drops down to the bottom leg which is flat on the floor. Your head drops to the floor as well. Your spine can almost assuredly be bent in more ways than is healthy at this moment. We want your spine to be in a straight line from the base of your skull through your knees (if we could pull a string from end...
