I bought this bed set right out of college from Macy's. I bought a full size set. 35 years later, the mattress is still like new and I have slept on it almost every day and every year since I bought it. The box spring is also holding up but my cats have torn the protective fabric from the bottom, so I will probably get a new box spring at some point. I now use a 3 inch foam mattress topper on my Simmons Maxipedic and it is so soft and comfortable. I sleep like a baby. I also have no health issues or any body or back pain anywhere, I am still very young looking and in great health, maybe thanks to sleeping on my Simmons Maxipedic for 35 years! I plan on keeping this mattress as long as I continue sleeping like a baby, maybe for another 35 years.

Agreed. I bought mine in 1994 and its still like new. I rotate it and /or flip it over every year. People tr to tell me you need to buy a new one every 10 years but I dont see why with quality like this
I 100% agree! I came here to find a replacement for this gem of a mattress - I won't let my daughter take it with her to her first apartment and she loves it as much as I loved it when I purchased it 35 years ago!
