Clermont Plush Pillowtop

Idk. I know *some* mattresses are a scam, for sure. I have experience with two decent range mattresses. I had one of the old Tempurpedic mattresses from when they were still a block of foam in a tan cover. Not QUITE the ones you got from an infomercial, but definitely not the super fancy ones they make now. It was very comfortable, but it was HOT. I also didn’t love how hard it could be to turn over or readjust at night. When I was comfortable, though, I was SO COMFORTABLE. It lasted about 8 or 9 years before I noticed a significant dip in support and decided to move on. Next was my BeautyRest Black Clermont. It’s a hybrid mattress, so springs underneath several inches of memory foam. I liked it a lot as well. Very, very comfortable, and not nearly as hot as the TP was. I’ve had it for about 8 or 9 years, and about 6 months ago I started to notice that the support seemed to fall out almost overnight. It’s just not there anymore. I can’t do purely springs, and I don’t like the feel of most pillow tops you find in the Sealy/Serta grade mattresses. And my experience as a housesitter/traveler reinforces that that type of bed isn’t right for me. I hate the way they flatten out and start to feel, even if they aren’t that old. I won’t go bed in a box for a bunch of reasons. So it leaves me in this position where I’m either going to go pretty cheap (maybe a Costco mattress) just to get something new, or I’m going to go expensive and buy through a local company here in Boulder called Urban Mattress. Their reviews are outstanding, and the one I’m looking at has pocket coils and then two layers of latex and a really luxurious cover. The price makes me bristle a little, but honestly? It’s not too bad considering what I paid for the TP 20 years ago and this BeautyRest about 10 years ago, and the quality is much higher than either of them. And when I’ve laid on it? Oh. My. God. It’s a comfort level (I’m a side sleeper) with underlying support like I haven’t experienced on any other mattress I’ve tried. I’m hoping to pull the trigger in the next couple of months.

Haven't found a salesperson who knows what density foam they have. I'm having such a hard time. Last time I got a Beautyrest hybrid that was below the black, and I really really liked it. But the girl left me and took the mattress which is fine. This time I'm not falling in love with any of the mattress options at local showrooms. I'm really running out of options but need to act as I am sleeping on the couch and it sucks. I don't like the black, I love anything and am almost out of retailers to try

We recently stayed in a rental that had a Simmons Beautyrest Black Hybrid and it was just about the best week's sleep we've had in ages. I don't know what "trim level" it was, though. But we have a flipping expensive TempurPedic at home and I liked this other one better.

Most mattresses have non-prorated warranties. Some are 7 - 10 years. Typically you’ll pay tax and delivery and get a credit for what you paid for that mattress. They call the process re-select at RTG. . It’s sad that these mattresses don’t last longer and it’s just a pain to make a warranty claim but so far we’ve gotten 4 mattresses in 10 years (upgraded along the way). Thanks for the reminder our king size BeautyRest sags about two inches even though the sales girl claimed there was extra support “for when you come together in the middle”. That’s our code phrase now.

Winkbeds Luxury Firm is great. That is their OG hybrid; they have the Luxury firm, the firm and then the Plus (for people over 200 pounds). I love the firm; but the man that delivered my mattress and has a back problem worse than mine said he loves the Firm - Firm, not the regular firm. Anyway; hates the Beauty Rest Black and I could not return it - big mistake. For me I needed some lumbar support but relief for my shoulders and hips. It was like a rock under my neck. Did not break in. Winkbeds is a great mattress company!

This. It sucks but the best thing to do is go spend an hour at least trying out different beds in person. If you go off only bad reviews you will never find a new bed. Find a store that has good reviews about the salespeople there, and let them guide you. They are there to help. Helping you helps them make money, so it’s in their best interests to get it right the first time. Understand certain bed’s quirks, like tempur-pedics take time to break in, Beauty Rest Black have been get lots of returns etc.

It’s all what you like. We got a Brentwood home oceano a couple of years ago and love it. It is made in the USA and has a 25 year warranty. It has like a 1 year trial to send it back. I really liked the beauty rest black in store and found that this was comparable. We ended up strongly preferring this one.
