Hello all new to the site, 1st would like to give some advice, and I also need some... we purchased this king bed 4 months ago, we were getting sink holes where are hips were, also alot of pain and discomfert all over.. then after 2 months we spun the bed around. feels like we are sleeping in a taco shell, really is bad, so I called the stroe we purchased from, warrenty states the divots or holes have to be 1.5 inches deep, the tech came, and they use weights with a string to go acroos the bed the weights are at least 6 oz. I would say anyway the holes were 1.0 inches deep,, so now what...... I called the store and they are going to work out a deal. which is great I loose a couple hundred and get to pick out a new bed yeeee haaa.. I have been breazing threw the forum here and still undecided, we are going tomorrow they sell tempur pedic, serta, stearns and foster, simmons, beauty rest I know I am staying away from sealy, and pillow tops any sugestions out there, this will drive me nuts... anyway stay away from this piticular bed sorry bout the spelling.... finding the right mattress is so hard.... |
| I agree with Canuk and Budgy, if you *have* to get a replacement bed from this store, consider a Tempurpedic. They are not to everyone's taste, but out of all the beds this store is likely to carry, the Tempurpedic is most likely to be a quality bed that will last awhile. |

I too have a Sealy posturpedic. You have my sympathy and condolences. Linda |

Sealy is my #1 most hated bed. I'm not enthusiastic about Tempurpedic - I think they don't really provide good support, but if you can get a sleep trial on it then why not try it? I think your best bet is going to be to get the best springs you can get (I do NOT recommend Simmons! Actually THEY're my most hated S company!  ) and cut it open, take out the crappy foam and put in your own latex layers instead. You can save money doing this because when you buy the absolute firmest model of a certain bed - say, Sealy - you can get a pretty good price on it. (Don't forget to pay about 1/3 or less of the asking price.) Then you go to the internet - someplace like rockymountainmattress.com or sleepez.com, and buy a couple 1"-1½" layers of latex to replace the foam in your new mattress. Why? The foam that will come in any S mattress is crappy and will not provide true support. |

thanks for all the input,, with this store I have to get another mattress there, actually they have been good about it, we had it for 4months and I have to pay $199 return fee, which is not bad having it 4 months, and I will have to buy one equal or more value .. kinda stuck with them I have to spend 1600 or more.. cheapest tempupedic is 2600 we need a king,,, yikes..... looks like we will be spending quite a bit more, but that is ok... no pillow top, we will try another out... hope it works out, hate another few months and we are in trouble again... check out there beds ..... raymore and flanigan.... they have good customer relations anyway Jim I checked out the rockymoutain site, looks like nice ones, have any of you bought a mattress and spend that much without trying it.. I either have to get one of the so called S mattresses or take a big loss and a chance online with out trying one... we are kinda screwed I think... but the last mattress we had was a sealy had it 15 years and still likes it, but she wanted a king.. so we thought sealy would be good and look what we got...consumer reports had sealy #2 go figure.....

My suggestion. Get a Sealy PP Signature custom firm, level 7 and add a 2" latex topper. Works for me. |

well I know we went against all odds , the company we purchased the bed from took it back after 4 months, with no charge, wehn we had the tech come out and measure, the indents were only 1 inch deep, so they could have said out of luck, anyway we were at the store for 2 hours trying beds out.. ended up buying another S brand as this is all they have.. also another 650 dollars more.. so up to 2K I would rather not say what we pruchased I know you guys will bash me.. he he.. here is my question, If for some reason this thing starts sagging what can we do to fix it ourselves or better yet should I purchase a latex topper.. we only bought this brand because we had to buy from the store again. the customer service was great.. most all reviews I have read all over the internet, seams like problems with everyone, we stayed away from the latex beds. this mattress has HD foam and memory foam over springs and this it is firm,,, I really hope this works.. I am not going to buy another one, I will tear this apart and make it my own 2K for a bed we should be dreaming all night long...for some reason I am very nervous about this bed...salesmen had said no returns or issue about this bed... I believe him somewhat anyway... thanks for any help wish I came to this site 5 months ago when we were looking... |

Did you get a signature series? The springs look pretty good. Kait |
| kait ended up witj the montgomery plus no pillow top again this a firm mattress but felt good for the 30 minutes we laid on it, hope it works out |
|
I agree with Jim! Go firm, with springs and soften it up with a topper. So glad they let me take back the Sealy! |
|
so another 250 on top of the 2k I can just set this on top,, I really do not want to rip open a brand new mattress, is there a cover that goes over it, or just put the sheets right over the topper... I was looking at the talalay plush 24ILD is the mattress topper worth getting also This message was modified Jan 26, 2010 by kappy
