I need to purchase one of these mattresses this week and could use some advice on with one to choose. The 2 are: Cadbury Plush Queen: http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11479357&whse=BC&Ne=4000000&eCat=BC|93|1924|67412&N=4018920&Mo=28&No=8&Nr=P_CatalogName:BC&cat=67412&Ns=P_Price|1||P_SignDesc1&lang=en-US&Sp=C&hierPath=93*1924*67412*&topnav= Newgate Luxury Plush Queen: http://www.sleepys.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10551&productId=15014&attrValue=Queen&catalogId=10602&langId=-1
I had my mind made up to purchase the Cadbury but, I am worried that the bed only has a 504 coil density as opposed to the Newgate which has a 825 coil density. Should I be concerned with this? Will the bed with more coils last longer?

Neither one of the two beds that I am trying to choose from have a pillow-top or euro-top so, does your advice change? Here are the specs for the Cadbury: Luxurious Knit Cover
Here are the specs for the Newgate: High Loft Fiber 1" Hypersoft 1" Hypersoft 1" HD SuperSoft Foam 1" HD SuperSoft Foam w/VRT This message was modified Jan 20, 2011 by ftlee20723

Both look like they have enough polyurethane foam that can give out over time. So, frankly I would not have a high degree of confidence in either one. I would not worry too much about the springs giving out, the foam will give out first. At least Costco has a 100% return policy. I think you could even return it after 6 months if there is a problem. So, if I was undecided, I would prefer to buy from Costco. This message was modified Jan 20, 2011 by sandman

Costco mattress for sure, based solely on return policy. Costco will provide a full refund at any time if you become dissatisfied. Sleepy's will leave you high and dry if you start to have problems after their limited warranty period. Although neither mattress is advertised as a "pillow-top", it looks like both have plenty of poly-foam. I wouldn't worry too much about coil density. My personal impression of coil density is that it is a metric that has been exploited by the marketing industry, much like thread-count in sheets. Consumers are told more is always better...but in my opinion, that concept is mostly a hoax. I think a 504 coil density is perfectly sufficient, in and of itself. Just my 2 cents. Good luck with whatever mattress you decide on. |
bertie - do you know how long you have to exchange it (90-days)?

Here's Costco's return policy: http://shop.costco.com/en/Customer-Service/Returns.aspx Which I read as a money back guarantee if you become unsatisfied with the mattress at any time (much like LLBean's policy). I'll be returning our Costco mattress (4 months old) within the next week or so - I'll update on how it goes. |
Just an update, as promised (albeit a bit late)... We were able to return our 6-month old mattress to Costco without any hassle. They picked it up at our house, and even covered return shipping. Although we were hugely disappointed with the Sealy mattress we bought there, Costco's return policy is truly exceptional. We'll be replacing it with an all-latex mattress shortly... |
