We are considering purchasing one of the new Dr Breus Mattresses, but I don't like the fact that I can't find any reviews about it online. Has anyone seen any reviews for the Dr Breus Signature Mattress??? I'm sure that he's just friends with Dr. Oz and Oprah :-) |

Don't buy it! It's crap! After 4 months it is hurting my back. I can't move in bed without my back hurting. When I get out of bed my back is fine and I can sleep anywhere else and my back is fine. From an engineering standpoint it has been cost reduced to bring in maximum dollars with no regard to the consumer. For example, the foundation is cardboard and very little pieces of wood for support. But, the outside has a lovely covering to give the impression of quality. The matteress has a similar covering but the foam density has been reduced so much that there is little hope it can ever hold up in day to day use. Plus, what is on Sleepy's showroom floor is not what you will get at home. What is on the floor is a heavy well constructed product that is vastly different from what you will end up with. I encourage you to explore this matteress in other reviews and forums. If you do enough research you will eventually see a pattern to support my statements. And ignore the positives, there is strong suspicion Sleepy's is posting there own reviews. Don't expect customer service from them either, I've had zero success. They also have a history of being uncooperative and have numerous litigations against them. Good luck. |

We just got a Dr. Breus mattress. We bought it at a sleepys. We were looking for a new bed because our 17 year old Sterns and Foster mattress had had it. We tried this latex bed in the store and the sales man guided us to the 'medium' hardness because we are 'side sleepers'. The bed was so comfortable we took a chance and bought one on the spot (along with some feather pillows). We have had the bed for about a week and a half and it is GREAT! We love it! Also, it was a big investment so i hope that it lasts. We did absolutely NO research into what kind of bed to buy ..we just winged it. We had also never heard of Dr. Breus before. Had no idea the guy is a 'sleep Dr'.. Hope it is not a big sham!:) The mattress is soft yet firm and it has a solid sort of 'unbouncy' feeling which is quite different than a regular spring mattress. It gets a little warm but thats ok for us. I went online to see what we got ourselves into AFTER the fact of buying it, and came to this site just now and i decided to leave a reply. Ok that is all. Good luck. |
Tons of interesting responses in this forum about Dr. Breus' beds. In my experience, the name of the person on the bed (Donald Trump, Vera Wang, Dr. Breus, etc) usually have very little to do with the actual product performance. I will say that Dr. Breus , in the area of the sleep sciences, is absolutely phenomenal... when it comes to the actual mattresses, it seems like it might be a little self-serving. I havenot tried out this line of beds yet, but I do know some of the other reponses have listed some inaccurate info.
Sleep Well "loel"
PS Read Dr. Breus' blog on his website and focus on the science and effects of sleep... leave the manufacturing of the products to manufacturers. |

Awful, terrible. I paid a boatload of money and cannot get a single good night's sleep. the mattress bows in like a canopy. The company is essentially a hoax, the whole "Sleep Journal" thing is a scam, they never return your communcations once they sell you the mattress. Essentially the opposite of what they advertise. |

In July 2011 I began my search for a new bed. Trying to research, check websites, consumer product reports, personal reviews etc.... in an effort to educate my self before such a major purchase. It was extremely hard to find many reviews on any of the Dr. Breus mattresses which are (or were?) sold by Urban Mattress in Colorado. I ended up purchasing a Cal King size Dr. Breus Signature Platimum.....(just one step up from the Signature Elite.... (my previous review had the models wrong) such a sorry costly mistake!!!.... after tax was $4K Since it was a Cal King, I was told up front that it was a "special order" so NO returns.... But, I thought I was safe as I spent along time in the store during a couple of different trips and taking my time and laying on the mattresses for 30 min or so at a time. Both the Platimum and Elite and were very comfortable in the store. NO SINK HOLE feeling. I don't know what happened between the floor model and the one I ultimately received. (I am guessing poor assembly and lacking quality control)... again Cal King "Special Order".... It is way too soft (much more than the store model felt),,,, but the real problem is the SINK HOLE . Both my husband and I sink in the "holes". We are so, so disappointed in this very expensive mattress. I have some lower back problems and due to this "sink hole" and therefore no support to the lower back, I wake up "crippled" each morning until I am up on my feet then my back loosens up. This is not a review from a brand new purchase, I purchased the mattress in August 2011. Beware! Beware! I have truly been suckered... by Dr. Breus and Urban Mattress. I am now starting my a search for a new mattress, as I cannot continue to sleep like this. |

We have owned our Dr. Breuss Mattress for about 1 1/2 years. We were told it is the top of the line. A queen size that set us back $2800 plus taxes. I've always been very careful with my purchases to avoid getting suckered. But this time....dealing with a product that I'm not familiar with....it REALLY happened. It is too soft.....sinks in the middle. My wife and I find ourselves battling for the middle of the bed. I wake up every morning more tired than I was when I went to bed. I spend the first 30 minutes of every morning in excruciating pain before I work out the kinks that this mattress causes. I get better sleep....better rest.....and wake up with much less pain if I spend the night in my recliner. Yep. We got suckered. And we really cannot afford to purchase another mattress. Wonder if I contacted an attorney if there would be enough dissatisfied purchasers of this pile of junk to justify a class action. Talk about fraud......wow! I am so ashamed of letting myself get defrauded like this. If you are shopping for a new mattress.......be very, very careful. I wish we had been more so. |
