Price listed is total and it's a twin XL set. This mattress is an entry level unit in S&F's traditional line. Has individual coils, but not Intelli coils. Light brown border, not the dark brown ones on the newer mattresses. I give the mattress a 'B' grade. The polyurethane foam they call 'Variable Response Technology' foam did what they all do - form permanent body indentations and firm up in just several days. The box spring is awesome - it's quality seems quite high. The mattress is very nice looking. But the change in feel of the poly foam causes me to turn from side to side more than I would like.
I've laid on an organic mattress with individual coils and 3" all natural latex, organic wool and cotton cover - now that is heavenly soft and cushy. My mattress isn't near that. Consequently, it is scheduled to be picked up in 3 days and I'm going to exchange to best unit I can find at Sears - a Serta iComfort Revolution. Although it is not as cushy as latex, it should hold its durability for much longer than S&F's 'VRT' poly foam.
Date Purchased: 6/17/11
Price Paid: $1126
Recommend: No

Pros:

High quality cover with silk infused fabric
excellent build quality, feels solid
coils seem of high quality
box spring seems very high quality
It is supportive, no neck or back aches

Cons:

The VRT polyurethane foam has indented and the mattress is not as Plush as day one.
I've felt 100% natural latex that is much more soft and cushy than this Plush mattress
Offers more pressure on my shoulders/hips (side sleeper) than I want, consequently more tossing and turning.
