Best Mattress I ever owned

Never had a bad night's sleep on this mattress. The only reason i don;' use it regularly anymore is because it does not suit my husband and he did not want to give up his own high end mattress. I would love my mattress back. Worth a divorce?....

Sleeping in a field of dreams

This Simmons Exceptionale pillow top mattress is the best I've ever owned. If the Exceptionale is still around when my current one needs to be replaced...I intend to buy it again. My son has the Queen sized Simmons Exceptionale and he just raves about it. Two mattress winners in the same household...can't beat that!

An Oldie but a Goodie

16 years and it is time to put this old mattress out to rest (pardon the pun) I have loved this mattress, so many times curling up in my bed and enjoying the feel of luxury. But it has developed a "divit" and it is time to go the the hunt for something new. I only hope the new model will give me as much comfort as this mattress has.

Best mattress ever, perfect for my back and total comfort

The first time I tried this mattress, I knew I had to have it. It's like sleeping on a cloud. All the mattress-related discomfort I used to feel is history. I've bought it in 2007 and it has maintained its shape, beauty and comfort since then. If you like a firm mattress, this is probably not for you. But if you have back problems and like a mattress that provides support yet has 'give,' this is for you. It amazes me that it has lasted so long and is still provides dreamy comfort and rest. I've had it

The Big Dipper

Paid $1200 on-line for this mattress, box spring set. Thought that was a good deal considering the $3000 price at Macy's. What a waste of money! Both sides of the bed have huge dips where the springs probably collapsed. So, we're getting a new memory foam mattress today because of mine and my wife's intense pain in the hips and lower back. Couldn't take it any more. Are all spring mattresses this bad? We had a water bed for at least 15 years before this with no complaints, until the heaters finally gave out. Decided to ditch the water for a "real" bed, so we bought the top of the line Beauty Rest Exceptionale. It was good at first, but after 3 years it's going to the township dump. We researched reviews of mattresses and got the most good reviews for the memory foam type. Hope we have better luck with this one, because we cannot afford a new mattress every few years!

Doesn't last, horrible backache after 3 years

we got a queen sized plush mattress at Macy's. Was told it was one of their best Simmons mattress. It felt great for the first 3 years. Then the padding on the mattress compressed enough that created deep enough body depressions that it started to give us back and neck pains. Due to the design of the mattress, you cannot flip it. Simmons will not replace under warranty since the body depression is <1.5in according to THEIR measurements. We do not weight that much (wife 100lbs 5'2, husband 160lbs 5'11"). For the surface padding NOT to last even 3 years with such minimal weight is just horrible. Their 10year warranty is a joke. We could not afford another mattress so we tried to compensate for the body depressions by placing folded towels in the depression trying to straighten out the surface, to no avail. STAY AWAY FROM THIS MATTRESS.

A waste of money

The Beautyrest Birmingham mattress set was purchased on February 6, 2012. It was initially a very comfortable mattress but my husband and I started to notice body impressions in the areas where we sleep at about 9 months of using this mattress. Shortly therafter, we both started having back pain as the impressions and lumpiness got worse. It is now May 2013 and the mattress is just awful. This was such a waste of money!

Don't Buy

We purchased a high end Simmons Mattress"Buchanan" at $5275.00 in 2008 after being told it was the top of the line and very durable. In less than three years it had body impressions and lumps. We called the store and Mike sent out an investigator to see the problem, but they said it was a normal body impressions within their guidlines. ??? Its so bad that I have to put blankets under me just so I can sleep without sinking. Their answer is there is nothing they can do. We had a Pembroke Beauty Rest bed we slept on for 15 years and there were NO body impressions and we still sleep on it when we go to our second home. So, what gives? I am stuck with an overpriced lemon for a bed. I get a better nights sleep on the floor.

KEEPING U AWAKE mattress

After sleeping on it first night, very sore! However, sometimes it does take a little time for the body to adjust. It seems to be somewhat firm but this particular mattress does not asborb pressure points on my body. ( I weigh 145 lbs. to give you an idea of weight for this mattress.) I am use to a very frim mattress but so far, my old one is way better than this new one. Have had Simmons Beautyrest Quilted Birmingham Plush mattress one night and very sore. Did not sleep well. Hoping my body will get more use to it after a few more nights. Even tho my back needs a firm mattress this is not the mattress for me. It could be a little more firm in the hip/back area. When we picked it out in the store, I thought at that time it was comfortable with good support. After sleeping on it first night, I no longer feel that way about the comfort. (I realize this is asking too much but wishing I could find a mattress extra soft on the shoulders but extra firm on the hip/back areas.) Also, I personally, am not a fan of the pocketed coil design. There seems to be a lot of marketing for this particular design. Simmons uses pocketed coils in most of their innerspring mattresses. Overall - I am not happy with my purchase and may have to go back to my old mattress. If I buy another one, I will most likely go with Sealy Posturpedic Firm if they still make them and hope for the best. To me, Simmons feels like a cheaper line of mattresses. But other people may be very happy with Simmons. My husband seems to be fine with this mattress so far. The research I have done online rates Sealy as one of the top mattresses rated by consumers. I have also slept on Sealy in the past and have had good luck with them. I can not rate the durability of the Simmons mattress because we have only had it one day. But so far, I personally would not recommend it.

back spasms

For 5 years, it was great and then began to sag. At 7 years, I awoke with back spasms and could not stand up straight. I sleep in another room now to avoid back pain. Macy's and Simmons do not care. If my husband comes near me (in the bed) I immediately get no back support and feel pain in my back. Now I will buy a cheap mattress and replace it every 5 years. And I will not buy it at Macy's.
