Hey everyone, Buying a new bed has to be one of the most annoying purchases around. I have spent so much time trying to gather info and I just can't get a real consensus on anything. I was set in my mind to buy a plush pillowtop king mattress. I went to Sleep Country Canada and put down a deposit on a Simmons Beautyrest Classic High Loft Pillowtop with Wool and Memory Foam. It feels wonderful in the store and I'm sick of sleeping on firm surfaces at home and my back is killing. But now I've been to a ton of other stores and talked to a lot of sales people and have been reading reviews on the internet and it seems that a lot of actual buyers who have had their pillowtops for more than a few years hate them now and say they sink and have major indents that won't go back to normal. My old mattress which is now 11 years old is just a plain Kingsdown that has served me well. No pillowtop, no fancy cushioning just a regular old flippable mattress. This is no small dollar amount purchase so now I feel like I'm going crazy and I just can't make a decision! I've even wondered if I just get a regular tight top mattress and put a foam mattress topper on it for that soft feel, instead of dealing with a crappy pillowtop 5 years down the road. PLEASE HELP!

Hope it all works out. Remember, if in the future your Simmons starts to develop a dip because the comfort materials are compressing, you can always do mattress-surgery as others here have. You just cut open the mattress, remove all the failing foam and fibres, and replace them with a latex or memory foam topper. All the best. Diane |
