Simmons Beautyrest Dakar as "base"?
|
so (as per my other thread) it looks like my tempurpedic is not going to work for my back. :( so, i'm gonna try the whole firm coil spring + foam topper to taste approach. my wife actually likes sleeping on a carpeted floor with minimal padding, and i don't mind it if i added a few layers of blankets or a foam pad on top, so maybe we can try to emulate that in a bed... i was trying to find a decent coil spring that had minimal foam. i like the simmons pocketed coils because they do seem to provide better isolation, which is one of my favorite things about the tempurpedic. any opinions on this one? http://www.us-mattress.com/simmons-beautyrest-dakar-firm.html the quilt is pretty simple, the coil gauge is thicker than their higher-end 980-count models (13.25 gauge vs. 15.5) but it's still 800 coil, and it just has a couple think payers of 3/8" "PurFoam," whatever that is - looks to be be crappy quality (1.20 density polyurethane) but at least there ins't a ton of it. cheers, marc |

| I have read that their springs are not tempered! The weakest part is the pillow tops. Try a latex kit bed some where! |
