I'm looking for a mattress and seemed to have discovered this goldmine site with so much information that the salespeople don't tell you - both in good and bad ways. I've been reading a lot of articles, but there are still details about specific mattresses that I'm still confused about (and recommendations are welcome! :)). Here are my details..... I was originally looking at a Stearns & Foster mattress where a salesperson told me "they fixed that problem now" while another said "we don't carry that brand because the problem still exists." To directly compare, I believe the Taurus is in the same series as the Stearns & Foster Augusta mattress, which does not seem to have good feedback. The runner up on my list is the Simmons Beautyrest World Class Elite Rosemont at Sleep Country Canada, shown here. It is not only comfortable for me, but the World Class mattresses seems to have been suggested by various experts on GoodBed as well. The salesperson has also praised this mattress because Westin hotels use this mattress! That's great, however the suggestions seem to refer to tight-top (???) and not pillow-top mattresses. My concern is that the Rosemont is a pillowtop and will be prone to body impressions as well, or will otherwise develop issues over the long term. I'm inclined to find a Beautyrest World Class mattress with no pillowtop, but all the ones I've found seem to have a pillowtop. I love the feeling of this mattress but want this to be a lasting comfort, rather than for only 2 years. Are there any differences with this pillowtop over others? Or, should I still find a non-pillowtop + get a separate top layer? BONUS question: Does anybody know if there is a difference between the World Class series, and World Class ELITE series of mattresses? This name game is, well... Thanks in advance to everybody who reads, and also those able to assist me! :)

Hi Brian, Pillowtops wear poorly, regardless of brand. Substitute a soft Talalay latex topper for surface comfort that lasts for many years. When buying a Beautyrest, it's imperative that you opt for any of their firm models, which use a heavier gauge wire for the coil. The plush models use a much thinner wire, which creates too great a depth of softness, and that thin wire loses its support within a year's time...a very poor value. A luxury firm model with a latex topper will last for many years...supplying all the support and comfort your body needs. |
