Hello, I first joined this forum a couple of years ago. I posted about my Spring Air all latex mattress that collapsed, because they lied and it had about 3 inches of cheap PU foam in between the layers of latex. In the past two years I have been through 7 mattresses. All but 2 have been defective.Tomorrow I am about to receive my 8th. This is my 3rd Simmons beautyrest in a little over a year. The last two have been double layered coil and the top layer slid off. I am limited in what I can exchange for, so I opted for a different type of Beautyrest World Class. This one has only a single layer of coils. I am at my wits end. I hope this one lasts. My husband and I settled on this type of coil system because it offers me the same type of support that latex does. He could not stand the feel of the latex under him, but I need some pressure point relief. The moral of this story is, no matter how nice your salesman is (and this store has been terrific) the manufaturers are producing cheap crap and they know it. To charge the ridiculous prices for these beds is a crime (or should be). I appreciate this forum so much. You all have been helpful and have given me so much to think about. I have learned alot. Our next bed will be two seperate mattresses, and neither of them will be a major "S brand". I only hope I can get at least a few good years out of this one before I need to go that route. Thanks for listening |
Thanks Kim. Just as an aside, I know that Simmons is in the middle of a bankruptcy. So now, they are not even putting the Simmons Beautyrest medalion on the end sof their beds anymore. Pretty sad, they are ready to just walk away and not be responsible for the product. The law tags and info tags all state the Simmons name, but no more are they declaring themselves loud and clear on the end of the bed. This mattress was manufatured in the Agawam Ma. facility on Oct. 21, 2009. I think the fact that they will not happily declare their own product for all to seesays alot about the company. |
Kimberly - maybe the Swedish bed you're thinking of is the "Dux Bed' by Duxiana? http://www.duxbed.com/ |
For those who are interested read this epinions about the DUX bed. http://www.epinions.com/review/Duxiana_Mattress/content_38223777412 Just be sure to take everything you read on the Internet with more than a grain of salt. This message was modified Oct 27, 2009 by eagle2

I'm pretty sure I wasn't thinking of the Duxiana. I just can't put my finger on the name of the mattress manufacturer. Upon further thought, I'm now thinking it was an american company. |
I, too, wish you the best with your new mattress. We are liking our Savvy Rest latex (dunlop) but almost went with all cotton Royal Pedic or all cotton Charles Beckly (or is it Beckley?) Sounds like your hubby needs one of the above to get that ultra firm feel he wants. (my hubby almost the same thing) If you get one of those, you can always put a nice layer of talalay or dunlop on your side of the bed. Yes it will be lopsided, but then both of you will be happy! Good luck! |
