Hello, My wife and I were at Sears yesterday and after trying many different mattresses she really liked this one. It is the Serta Perfect Sleeper Reese Eurotop (Elite collection). We also went to Colders and I really liked the Serta Vera Wang with the eurotop. These are around the same price range but I don't really understand how they rate. The Reese also comes with a 20 year warranty were the Vera is only 10.... I think... Maybe. Oh well, if anyone can suggest which one of these is the better bang for your buck that would be great. I was also wondering what the thoughts out there are about the W hotel heavenly bed? This is another option however I don't know where to find a place to actually try it out. Thanks in advance, Gene. |

So far as Serta goes pay no attention to the model name in any store as all big retailers have different model names for the same grade mattress. The Perfect Sleeper is the base model for Serta. The Perfect Day is the high end group - Vera Wang, best we can tell, relates more to cosmetic things like fancy fabrics and etc. but nothing to do with the foundation makeup. Perfect Sleepers have 10 yr warranty while Perfect Day have 20 Yr warranty - Perfect Sleepers Kings have 632 coils (Vera Wang or Not) while Perfect Day Kings have like 1,173 coils. We thought we wanted to try a new mattress and did so much research and found we keep going round and round the same circles of bad or incomplete information. Fact is, 40% of owners of ALL makes of inner-spring mattresses are not happy with their purchase and don't like to sleep on them. Most of them are reported to have depression area and sagging springs within three to five years and often sooner than that! More people were happy about their purchase of foam type mattresses but many still felt they were failing or worn out or had become uncomfortable in three to five years - or even less. We finally decided that we already had the best of mattresses - waterbed!! Been sleeping on them for 22 yrs - only reason we thought of a change was due to wife's growing back problems and she wanted something a bit more firm. So I added some water to our eight year old mattress the firmness improved just fine. We ordered a new dual chamber/dual sided model so she can adjust her side's firmness separately from what I choose. Counting the newly ordered one we will have spent about $800 on mattresses in over 22 years and a modern waterbed mattress will be well engineered and can be totally waveless (without motion) and with lumbar special support. Our 8 yr old mattress seems in same like new condition as when we bought it - vinyl is still soft and flexible and all the internal fiber seems perfect so give waterbed a good critical look and you might find a very low cost and comfortable sleep platform - easy to adjust firmness and you can heat it as warm or keep it as cool as you like. Best of Luck |
