Double tempered sounds a little gimmicky for pocket coils...technically you can only temper steel once.  Sometimes interactive coils are listed as double tempered as the coils are tempered individually and then the whole innerspring system gets baked later on so that the helical wires and border wires, etc, can all be tempered as well.  Higher gauge technically means thinner wire...perhaps they meant lower gauge but did not articulate this correctly.  And I find it incredibly hard to believe that the coils are actually nested by hand if there is a foam encased edge.  I would ask them how their coils are held together.  If the fabric pockets themselves are glued together one to the next...then it isn't hand nested. 

I tried doing some searching Jim and I couldn't find anything.  Only a review on this website (or thread rather) and...

Another person falls in love with Original Mattress Factory beds....!  I too had the same experience in May when I felt like Goldilocks.when I tried every bed in the store. I too loved those latex beds, but they were way out of my  price line.  I was torn between the Legacy firm and the Ortho firm.  I ultimately wound up the the Ortho ultra firm, with no "topper" or foam on top.  Boy, after 6 weeks, I do regret not getting the bed with a topper built it.  My bed is extremely firm and I am in pain every night.  I purchased a foam "eggcrate" topper a few weeks ago, but it just made the pain worse.  I have had back surgery, and thought I needed the hardest mattess out there...I should have stuck with the Legacy...but, too much "testing" of all those beds made...

After having bought and rejected two mattresses in a two-month period (one was memory foam, the other, an iCoil innerspring), I think I've finally found my perfect mattress...with reservations. Here is my bittersweet tale: I visited the Original Mattress Factory with every intention of purchasing a low-end offset coil model with very little padding so that I could have the option of using toppers to create a customizable and easily replaceable comfort layer. I was torn between the Regency and the Orthopedic Extra Firm. While weighing the relative advantages and disadvantages of each, I walked around the showroom, flopping down indiscriminately on one mattress, then another (all I can say is <i>thank god</i> the Orthopedic Euro Top was out of my price range, because it is seriously like being enveloped in the most comfortably supportive substance on earth...and all that super soft padding is just one big...

Hi Budgy, I got this from the Ortho web site but as with most mattress co's they don't go into great detail about things:

But here's my question for you:

Out of Stearns & Foster and Simmons which do you think is the better coil design?

S&F's higher end uses an Intellicoil design (spring within spring, the spring in the center is a light gauge spring and the outer spring is heavier gauge.) Intuitively this looks like a great design but ?? Do you have any feedback or experience on it?

Simmons' higher end has 2 options: Either a higher coil count of up to 1000 and/or a dual coil system with a lighter gauge indiv....
