![]() My understanding is that the coils in these mattresses are sound and have no longevity issues but the foams have a much shorter life span and break down prematurely leaving you feeling cheated. ![]() If I spend $2500 on a mattress I want it to retain it's quality the same way my $300 mattress has. I fully intended on spending a good chunk of money on a mattress this time and I completely agree with what you are saying about spending more money on "things that keep you off the ground." The issue at hand is simply a longevity thing. About 90% of my orders atm end up being delayed an additional 1-2 weeks due to vendor delays. If a mattress isn’t in stock and the company you buy from is waiting to receive stock from the manufacturer (most popular mattresses are OOS and major manufactures are having issues getting raw materials) be prepared for a delay or pushback on delivery. Larger companies with more diversity of products tend to have better customer service. Most important thing is make sure the warranty is 10yrs and non-prorated. Posturpedics use a postur-grid which means the coils get closer together towards the middle of the mattress which aids in support and durability. Coils edges hold up much better in my experience. They also use coils for edging while most other brands use foam encasement at the price range. I’m a big fan of sealy posturpedics and certain Serra perfect sleeper models at the budget price range.īoth most posturpedics and perfect sleepers (not the $300-$400 cheapest models) have great coil density for the price. Usually the difference between a plush and firm in the same model is just the firm has a thicker coil gauge. If you are leaning towards a budget mattress then get something on the firmer side. Rule of thumb is you can always make a mattress softer with toppers but besides putting wood under the mattress it’s difficult to make it firmer. Granted it may depend on specific locations but just keep it in mind. If you get a good product then it’s not an issue but my experience working in the mattress sales I’ve heard endless horror stories from their customer service. Tbh be cautious buying anything from mattress firm. I have also been asked by several people how we tend to sleep we both sleep on our sides. This option just so happens to be around $1000 cheaper than the original mattress my wife and I fell in love with. I have never tried a latex mattress before but have now been told that they feel similar to a hybrid foam/coil mattress and are well known for their longevity. Does this logic seem sound? Please advise.Įdit: I have been advised to check out a full latex mattress (Sleep on Latex) as well as some recommendations for spring mattresses for a DIY setup. We have made due with sleeping on a $300 queen coil mattress for the last 6 years (no issues or break down which you would not think possible after reading through this sub) that my mom purchased for us while I was in college so we are not overly picky to begin with. This route will also save us about half of the money we were planning on spending. I am starting to come to the conclusion that I would be better off buying a pocket coil mattress (cheap and reliable) and just buying a latex/memory foam topper that we both find comfortable which can be easily and cheaply swapped if it wears out prematurely. That being said, I have now researched PLENTY of other mattresses and have came to the conclusion that NEARLY ALL mattresses discussed on this forum have the same quality and longevity issues as the Sealy I was originally looking at. ![]() After reading first hand accounts here I have decided against purchasing the mattress because of longevity issues. My wife and I have fell in love with the Sealy Hybrid Premium Silver Chill 14" Plush Mattress ( as many do) and nearly pulled the trigger at Mattress Firm without doing any research.
