Sealy Posturepedic (Sealy) - Posturepedic Spring

I’ve only heard negative things about them. They are not in my floor room so I’ve never personally laid on one, but I’ve heard that they don’t last long. They will feel good for a little bit, but they don’t have coils in them and that tends to lose a lot of support. It might feel great for a year or two and then eventually he’ll probably wake up with your back hurting.

Personally, my most returned mattresses are the lower end Beautyrests. The luxury beautyrests are hardly ever returned, but the ones that are under $1000 seem to be returned all the time. This is a difficult question though because a lot of returns are from people who only buy online without trying the mattress first. I highly recommend trying a mattress and not reading the reviews and buying one because everyone has their own definition as to what firm or soft is. You might see a review and someone says it’s way too soft. When in reality it’s an extra firm mattress. I also see a lot of returns with nectar.

I actually really like that mattress. I didn’t even think of that mattress since it’s still pretty new. The reason I like it is because when you drop below $1000 you’ll lose a lot of support in your mattress and a lot of good material. That mattress offers great support and the medium is good for all sleeping positions. In my opinion, the medium is a little bit firmer than what I would normally think a medium would feel like but again all of us have our own definition as to what medium soft or firm is. When you first get it, it will feel like a firm mattress but after 30 to 45 days it’ll be broken in and softer.

Yay I’m glad! I have heard that they definitely come firmer when you first get it but after a couple months, my customers love it. It’s an awesome bed that will probably last you a pretty long time.

So I’ve personally never tried that mattress, but I’ve heard mixed reviews on it. When you first get it, people will say that it offers good support for side and back sleepers, has good edge support and breathability and they say it has a high density foam inside (I don’t really believe it). Now talking to customers after they’ve had it for a while is a different story. More times than not people say that the support is gone after a year and the edge support completely crumbles. If you prefer firmer beds, then it will not be a good choice for you.

Wow, that’s impressive. Hell yeah, I wish I could sleep on something cheap. Honestly, if you’re not too worried about support then it’s not going to be a huge issue for you. Like if you were able to sleep on that for 15 years which has little to no support in it then I think you’ll be fine with not spending a ton of money. I would look at the BeautyRest or Sealy PressureSmarts. The reason being is because they are good quality mattresses, but you can get them for like $600 off for little less than $1000 for a queen and just over $1000 for a king. They have firm an extra firm so depending on what your preferred firmness is, one of those would probably be a perfect fit. The unfortunate part is that when you drop below $1000 for other mattresses (not the ones I just recommended.) firmness tends to go with the price. It might feel firm for the first year or two, but will eventually be way too soft because you’re losing the durability in the mattress.

It’s a little tricky because you need something that will support you when you’re laying on your back but your wife needs something that will support her hips. Women have wider pelvises, which is why she’ll need something supportive, but not too firm. One of the hardest things is picking a mattress when you only have a few minutes, but when you go into a mattress store, I would highly recommend laying on your back or your side for up to 10 minutes on the mattresses. Normally after five minutes, you can start to feel if it’s going to hurt your hip or not. I work at Mattress firm and we offer a four month sleep trial, which is great because you don’t actually know how you’re going to like the mattress until you are sleeping on and every Night. Just taking your time in a mattress store is the way to do it. I would recommend something medium to firm. The medium can’t be too soft though and the firm can’t be too firm. Your question is a hard question to answer. Everyone has their own definition as to what firm and soft is and on top of that every brand has their own definition so it’s really about just going and trying them out and laying on them for 5 to 10 minutes

Honestly, yes. I think that’ll be the best mattress for your needs. In my opinion, the coils just add a little bit more support, but I do agree that sometimes they can feel like concrete overtime. I recommend walking across your mattress every night for like a week and that should help make your mattress feel even better..

Same. Also bought a full sized firm Sealy innerspring and box spring, delivered along with my Novaform. The Sealy has also held up really well.

Sleep country - sealy brand not sure of the model the mattress is black with green accents. It works great as a side sleeper for me. Has coils and adjusts to the points on your body.

The original mattress factory company. We have one. You can flip it too! Had it since February we like it. Although I actually went firmer than I wanted. My partner likes firmer so I thought I’d try it. Might get a topper and see if that’s better for me.

We got a Posturepedic in February but the store we went to was very educational and they shared a lot of information so worth a trip.

This is what we got from them I misspoke looked it up it’s an orthopedic https://preview.redd.it/f1cysst3qnte1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=788869f351396aee3bbc913abacc20143328d703

Oh wow. I've had a Sealy Posturepedic for more years (decades) than I care to admit. It's your basic coil spring mattress that I can flip. Have they dropped in quality that much?

Ngl I have a posturepedic that’s like 20 years old too (it’s been used on and off, not continuous) and I’m dreading the day I have to find a new one. From what I’ve seen most mattresses aren’t flippable anymore and seem to wear unevenly.

I have the same issues. I haven’t found anything that exceeds my mattress/box spring combo for comfort or longevity.

Big fig has a new luxe version that you might like. If we hadn’t already bought the sealy posturepedic. I would definitely have tried this one. This Sealy mattress has become annoying to me.

I'm a bui bui. My Sealy Posturepedic is still firm and holding up well after 6 years of use.

Hello, wise mattress guru! I would love your thoughts, if you'd be so kind. Sorry, in advance, for the length of this. Okay, here goes... In my entire life, I have only slept on innerspring mattresses with box spring foundations. The last mattress I purchased was in 2004, and desperately needs replacing. Actually, as a whole, the mattress, a Sealy Posturepedic I believe, has held up unfathomably well, and most of the mattress is still in excellent, very comfortable condition. However, on the side I sleep on most, and particularly the one area I sit on regularly there, it has for the last 4 years had an approximately 18" x 18" (butt sized) divot with a couple of springs popping through. Because it's a queen bed, I sleep as far away from that divot as possible, but can still roll into that deep divot if I get too close. Also, just from a housekeeping standpoint, I wouldn't mind having a fresh mattress. It's not that I'm not willing to buy a new mattress, but everything about mattresses has completely changed in the last 20 years. In the last 4 years, I've done tons of research and read hundreds of reviews, and still haven't gone through with a purchase. I do not want a bed that sleeps hot. I'd also like a mattress with longevity. In the past 6 months, I have recently read a lot about latex mattresses and how they sleep cool. Now though, I'm reading that they are only cool in comparison to memory foam mattresses, but that they still hold the heat. I've also seen many suggestions to "build your own mattress" and while that sounds appealing, as a single senior female, I'm not able to haul anything heavy up to my second floor bedroom or to dispose of my old mattress myself. That has me thinking that I'm better off with a seller who offers both white glove delivery and removal of my old mattress. Long before I needed a new mattress, I was intrigued by the individually pocketed coils of a Simmons' Beauty Rest, and there is one other brand that I always used to promise myself I'd own one day. That brand is the magic word you mentioned, Shiffman! I'm not sure that they're still made the same way as years ago, but back in late 1980's my parents bought a Shiffman through Bloomingdale's, and that is hands down the best, most comfortable mattress I've ever laid on. Also, the quality was superb, and it remained in the same great condition for over 25 years. Yes, it was expensive, and yes, it required flipping, but feel-wise that mattress remains my definition of a dream mattress. My questions are: Can you please comment on all Latex mattresses and Latex as the support layer? Is it much hotter than going with a traditional innerspring mattress? Also, I was once told by a salesman at Bloomingdale's that the Shiffman requires a traditional box spring foundation, and cannot be used on a platform bed. Is that true? I've always had a box spring foundation, but wouldn't mind losing the fabric covered box spring since I have allergies, and I also find the look of a platform type foundation cleaner and more modern. While I don't have $10,000.00, $20,000.00, or $40,000.00 to spend on a flagship Shiffman, Iast time I checked, the prices of Shiffman through Bloomingdale's and other retailers were not that out of reach. I no longer live in a state that has a Bloomingdale's, but there is a small, old school furniture store near me that exclusively sells Shiffman and no other mattress brand, and they told me they have models starting around $2,500.00. I read, but didn't quite understand, your thoughts on Shiffman as sold through big retail chains vs independent furniture stores. Could you please explain. If necessary I could order through Bloomingdale's in a neighboring state, but that means I wouldn't be able to to test out the mattress in-store first. Also, I'm only 5'2" tall. The big problem I had when last purchasing a mattress was that mattresses had become super thick. Most mattresses combined with a box spring were suddenly far too tall to allow me to easily climb into and out of bed. I ended up having to go with a low profile box spring, but I'm not sure they're even offered anymore. I'm okay with the new bed being maybe 2" taller than what I currently have, but don't want something so tall that I need to take a running leap to get into it, or have a big drop to the floor to get out of it. Also, I'd like a mattress with excellent edge support, since the edge that I sit on is always the first point of failure. Any thoughts or suggestions you can offer would be greatly appreciated. I don't know if I should go with a new type of mattress like a Latex mattress, or a Build-Your-Own mattress, or if I'm simply better off sticking with a traditional Innerspring Mattress that I'm used to. As for the innerspring mattresses, what are your thoughts on Sealy vs Beauty Rest vs Shiffman? I don't want to spend $5,000.00 on a Beauty Rest Black, but I'm wondering what their other models may be like. Since you are literally the only person in any thread I've read that even mentioned a Shiffman, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thank you so very much, in advance!
