I purchased a Beautyrest Black series 4 less than 6 months ago and it is horrible. It already has sagging and imprints from where I sleep. I have seen numerous other complaints about this since I started having problems.
Our last mattress was an $1100 Simmons Beautyrest Plush cal king. We got a good 19 years out of it although realistically should have replaced it at least 5 years ago. We just replaced it with a $2k Novaform Platinum Luxury Hybrid king from Costco that we got on the Christmas day sale for $1500. This thing is built like a tank. I fully expect to get at least ten years out of it but that's yet to be seen.
I’ll try to keep this brief and not lay out a novel. Currently my partner and I have a king Simmons Beautyrest Hybrid Pillow Top Plush which is about 5 years old. I’m 175lbs and 90% stomach, 10% side sleeper. She is 135lbs and about 50/50 side/back sleeper. The Simmons has been a great bed and even though it’s a plush, it seems equally as firm as some mediums we have tried out recently. We are both pretty active, no predisposed aches/pains, but haven’t been diligent in rotating our mattress so there’s some impressions in the mattress that have developed. That’s on us. Current frame and box springs are solid, so we will be looking at just a mattress purchase.
So far we have made one trip to a furniture store and tried out:
\- Sealy Ellie Lane EPT Medium - front runner so far (worried about durability due to price point, TBH)
\- Sterns & Foster Estate Medium TT - runner up
\- Sterns & Foster Lux Estate Firm EPT - initial comfort isn’t much better/different than above two options, although I wonder if durability will be better due to price/debsity
\- Purple - not a huge fan
\- Termpur Pedic - not a huge fan
\- Dream Cloud - not a huge fan
Full memory foams aren’t our preference, and we plan to go check out some nicer Beautyrest options as well as other options today. Any suggestions on what to check out?
Update: post shopping today - we really liked the Beautyrest Black series one medium tight top.
Update 2: the Sealy Elite medium tight top was also a top contender. We also became adjustable base fans.
Update 3: [made a purchase](https://www.reddit.com/r/Mattress/s/U0PbNPDAD1)
We are a retired couple, my husband is 6' 260 i am 5'5" 140. We bought a beautyrest black hybrid series 3 med. We had the soft and returned to med and still not satisfied. We are willing to pay what it takes for a good night's sleep. My husband suffers from neuropathy and his hips and shoulders always hurt. I am thinking of beautyrest black pillow top. We live in Clearwater Florida area. Any suggestions?
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.
