So with the $700 one, it may have been a used model or possibly a discontinued model. I know with Kingsdown they are made to last 14-20 where as everything else is made to last 7-10 years. Kingsdown is also made with pressure relief in mind. 4k means you are probably looking at the W series at mattress warehouse. It’s got reinforced foam from head to toe (different levels of support) along with a luxury support band in the middle third of the bed for lifted lumbar relief. This isn’t to say the other beds are bad (I sleep on a series 2 medium pillow top but my mother sleeps on the medium Kingsdown in question), but Kingsdown is a cut above the rest. They have been around since 1904 and DO NOT ADVERTISE. What company do you know has successfully been around for over 100 years with no advertising? Because Mattress Warehouse has the Kingsdown, go there. Get a mattress protector with the bed and try it out. They have a comfort exchange. If after 30 days you get it, you get up to date 120 to do a switch. You get full access to what you spent the first time to go toward the second bed of equal or greater value (unlike mattress firm who takes 10-20%). So if you don’t LOVE the Kingsdown, you can upgrade to the series 3 Beautyrest or the sterns. Plus mattress warehouse gives you a price match guarantee. First year from purchase if the bed goes ANY cheaper during a big sale, you call and get a price match refund. Give them an email and you get an email every time there is a new sale. You just call and ask if it’s cheaper, when it is you get a refund. Kingsdown is also known for having amazing support with differing comfort feels. Same pizza, different topping. Their firm plush and euro top models all have the same support system with a different comfort feel. And they are also the only beds that are TESTED before leaving the factory. Every single bed goes through a machine which pressure tests it to the original spec beds that they update every now and again. If it doesn’t pass they doesn’t sell it.
$450 Amazon and it’s amazing. Beautyrest, hybrid gel and inner spring mattress. Purchased in 2021.
We have a beautyrest black pillowtop and we bought a 3 inch memory foam topper.
I have a Beautyrest Black Pillow top and when it comes time to replace it, I'll be replacing it with the same thing. Fucker is huge, bulky, and expensive. But I never have back pain when I wake up, unlike every hotel I've ever stayed at.
I personally like a soft mattress. But what I've found is there are too types of soft mattresses: mush and truly soft. Mush you get in and can't get back out. This is the Beauty rest Black line at the Brick (Canada) Truly soft are medium firm mattresses with great foam tops like Beauty Rest Trilliant at Sleep Country. Mush is awful but a supporting mattress with a cloud top is a thing of beauty. I had a mattress like this several years ago, amazing. Then I switched to medium firm on medical advice. Big mistake. My body likes to be held but my joints like to be whispered to. I am a side sleeper with a little back until the sleep apnea chokes me awake.
I have a 2024 beautyrest black pillow top! I will admit it did start sagging within only a couple of months. It’s still super comfortable and it doesn’t bother me, but I can see why that would be a dealbreaker for someone else.
I know it sucks,and not to be a salesman but invest in a nice one. 0% financing is usually available, lease to own if credit isn’t the best,save up a good chunk. Yes it’s a lot but you’ll be happy with the bed for longer for sure. You use it everyday and it’s gonna make you a lot happier in life. And the new beauty rest blacks have been really solid series 2 and up id say.
I found my current mattress from a wholesale shop here in Atlanta. I've had it for 5 years now, but it's starting to sag a bit. I'm getting my brand new Beauty Rest Simmons mattress delivered tomorrow. I paid under $500 for it from Mattress Firm. Also as everyone else has said, check out FB Marketplace.
