Mattress Forum

Interesting! I have not seen the percentages posted before. From pretty much everything I've read on this forum, polyfoam breaks down pretty rapidly, as compared to latex. So you are probably looking at a breakdown years before before the warranty is up, since that is the primary compnent of the mattress. Other posters have said that warranties are pretty much useless in most cases. The terms and conditions depend on the language used in the warranty. If you want to post that, we can try to see whether it would cover any breakdown in the poly foam.  Some of the posts have talked about technicians coming to their home and determining if or whether the warranty covered the potential claim - usually not. Consider also that Dr. Breus is a new brand and it's doubtful you'll find much reporting yet of anyone trying to make a claim under the warranty. t If you want something that is going to last ten years or more, chances are this is not it. If you know that going in, and are okay with it, then no problem. Otherwise, you might want to reconsider while you still can.

What is REALLY fascinating is that everyone takes a hard line--"this mattress is amazing and the best ever and will change your life" or "this mattress will probably kill you avoid avoid avoid"--but no one seems to recognize the essential truth behind any purchase like this: some will like it. Some won't. Everyone's body is different and will acclimate differently to a new sleeping surface. Two people can try on the same pair of shoes and think they're comfortable in the store, and one of them can develop blisters in a month while one will love them. I'd love to see some non-judgemental, purely factual accounts of how the mattress felt in-store, how it felt when it was delivered, and how it felt after some time had elapsed. I just tune out the sensationalist reviews; positive or negative, they all come across as being sponsored by either the brand in question, or a competing brand.

Good Luck

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 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.

• Polyurethane foam covers a HUGE amount of materials, including memory foam... which does not break down as fast as other types of polyurethane foams.
• Sleeping hot many times is the individual but could also be the fact that being on a new support system that has eliminated (hopefully) many pressure points in your body. If you used to sleep with a lot of pressure points in your old bed or the bed sagged so much that your muscles were constantly working, your hands, fingers and toes were constantly cold, etc. and now find yourself level, supported, fewer to no pressure points (which result in more relaxed muscles, and inrease in blood flow) you will absolutely be hot for a few weeks as your body adjusts to this new healthier sleep you are experiencing. Think of the difference between a treadmill and an elliptical machine. Many treadmill enthusiasts could go "miles" on the treadmill but when confronted with the elliptical for the first time, found themselves limited to a much shortetr distance and or time. Why? More controlled and effective muscle usage and building. Same thing in a truly supportive (and comfortable) bed. Greater blood flow, more oxygen through deeper sleep and as a result much more healing throughout the body... deeper sleep means more internal working to prepare you for the next day. As all athletes can attest, you can adjust to the new routine and you lose the negative effects you experienced in the beginning.
• Do your research on sleep and science and then see if the retailer's actual mattresses live up to YOUR expectations

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.

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.

FYI - Donald Trump doesn't even sleep on his own mattresses he sleeps on a Gardner Mattress from MA.

I agree!!!
