In need of a king mattress. We are replaceing a 12 yr. old pillowtop that is like sleeping in a taco shell !! I looked at the Vi-Spring yesterday. The price is much higher than I thought but I'd like to go no higher than 5,000. I am a side sleeper, 5'7" 120 and hubby is 6'3" and 220, side as well. I'm thinking of getting a medium because I couldn't tell much difference in the medium and the firm. I'm afraid of getting the firm - might be too firm. Also is there anything else on the market (in Houston TX) that is decent and will last for years? I've been reading and it seems every other mattress manufacturer is just all about marketing and actually selling a hyped up product. Is there anything that competes with Vi-Spring that I can find? Some of the brands I've seen mentioned are Greek to me - I've never seen them in the stores. Back to the VI-Spring - is there much difference between the Elite and the Coronet? |

Bebe, I forgot to mention that the recommended firmness for you would be soft and your husband a firm. If you wanted to go to a medium, that would not be unusual and probably fine. As to the difference between the Elite and Coronet, the pure British fleece should give the Coronet a little plusher feel. The British fleece has a natural spinginess that is more evident when it is not blended with cotton. |
| Has anyone else noticed that you cannot reply to a thread here on an IPad? Anyway, I have posted about Vi Spring before. As I type this I am lying on my 3 month old Vi Spring Tiara Supreme. It is without question the finest bed I have ever slept in. I sold a Hastens Excelsior in favor of the Vi Spring. Before deciding on the Tiara, we spent weeks testing every bed in the showroom. I cannot speak about longevity, but all Vi Spring models just ooze quality. Truthfully you cannot go wrong with any of them. I once read a quote that they are all BMW's. Some just have more under the hood than others. I highly recommend not buying a King. Very hard to flip. We have the zip and link twin XL's which we love. Allowed my wife to get a firm and me a medium. Which is right for you is very subjective. I recommend Vi Spring very very highly, obviously. |

Hello. We are considering getting either an Elite or Coronet Vi Spring mattress, king size. I am wondering if there is anyone out there that has slept on either of these mattresses for any length of time that can share their experience with me? I would like to know how these mattresses actually hold up. Do they really not feel much different over time like they promise? I have been communicating with a competitor in England that said they had a few customers that have complained that the Vi Spring entry level mattresses have indentations because they don't contain horse hair. Or is the Coronet or Elite truly going to last a lifetime? Or, are we going to be looking for another bed in 10-20 years? Can anyone help us make up our minds about making this kind of investment? Thanks! |
