Crown Jewel Royale Medium Mattress

I slept in a koala, can't say it's the best, but will do, they are handy as it comes in a box. My go to are If money is non-issue : Sealy Posturepedic, Crown Jewel range Otherwise: Sealy Posturepedic. Always preferred the spring mattress than latex or foam.

I've been on the hunt for a replacement for my all time favorite(https://www.reddit.com/r/Mattress/comments/ixibg8/sealy\_posturepedic\_crown\_jewel/ ) forever... they just don't make 'em like they used to, heh! What I've resorted to at this point is a hybrid mattress with a foam topper with an extra thick quilted cotton mattress cover on top of that.

Do no such thing. I did exactly that. I miss my old 15-20 yo mattress. Crown jewel double pillow top. Paid $4k for it. Try, if it sucks return. It's a pia to find a good mattress.

I bought a posturepedic around 2010 and it was the worst. Never got a good night sleep.

Hip pain and a side sleeper and gif buy tempur pedic breeze ! Sattva is a terrible mattress ! You won’t find it anywhere to try it’s online only Stay away from Simmons beauty rest , Stearns and foster , Serta and Sealy posturepedic . They are all using low density foams that break down in no time . My beautyrest black series 3 plush has broke down in 30 days and caused me a high hospital bill due to rib inflammation.

SO... we had a Tempur Cloud Supreme from 2012 that we loved but it had definitely seen better nights by this point , we decided to go a different route when we replaced it last month. We chose a Sealy Posturpedic. We found it very comfortable in the store. Suffice it to say... we returned it this past weekend and have a Tempur ProAdapt coming this weekend to replace it. I think those that love Tempur mattresses will have a hard time replacing it with anything else. Just my 2cents.

Do not swap anything yet. 1 week is not enough time to evaluate firmness. It will soften. Call them and ask them to send you a free topper, temporarily, while you adjust. I am very familiar with the Midnight Elite and I own a ThermoBalance Elite (firm) for our guest room, it is a great comfortable mattress. Depending on your height and weight, that will determine how long it will take to adjust to. It’s important to remember that new mattresses often go through a break-in period. The firmness you feel in the first week is usually not indicative of how it will feel once it has settled; most mattresses soften slightly as the materials adjust to your body. Replacing it too soon with a softer mattress/comfort layer can create bigger problems later, like hammocking in the middle or relying on a topper that won’t adequately fix the support issues when a mattress is too soft. Give it a few weeks to fully settle before making any decisions, what feels too firm now may become perfectly comfortable once it has had time to adjust. I have posted about this previously. My daughter tested a Twighlight Luxe and Midnight luxe in a showroom. The Midnight felt firmer because it was new to the showroom floor and the Twilight had been there for almost a nine months. She is \~5'3 135, He is \~5'6 165. I ended up buying them the Twilight Luxe, knowing it would be firm for her. For him the Twilight was great right after expansion, it too her about 3 weeks to adjust (coming off an old mattress that had lost all support- that matters too). Now they both love it. I know everyone wants to feel great right out of the gate, and with some natural fibers that might happen, but synthetics are a bit different. Hang in there. I know it is easy for an outsider to say it, but you will be happier in the long run. Let the trial run 3/4's of it's course, then decide. You can always get a softer insert, but ask them for a topper it should help.

We like a firm mattress. We sleep on the Plank Luxe. I 6' 220 and my wife is 5'4 135. So were are on different sides of the weight spectrum. Having experienced the Helix Plus Elite and the Thermobalance Elite, although they both have heavy duty spring support systems, they are both in the medium-firm 7/10 level. Many folks automatically equate Plus sized mattress with super firm mattresses and that is not the case. I have to say the Thermobalance Elite and Helix Plus Elite feel quite similar. Whereas the Titan Plus Elite (our other guest room mattress) feels more luxury plush before you get to the support layer. Between the Helix Elite and TB Elite, they feel very similar to me. I like them both. Compared to my Plank Luxe, the Helix and TB are much more cushioned. Luxury Firm. Remember the Helix Elite line (except the plus) has ergoalign layer that adds lumbar support in the comfort area and in the spring support layer. This may be adding to the firmness you feel. I would not place much stock in the cooling ribbons. There is certainly science behind the concept, but when you dress the bed up, it is questionable that any of these types of cooling mechanisms as a solution for a hot sleeping bed. You are very light, so it ***will*** take longer for you to break the Midnight in. The gently crawling around on the bed might be a good idea to speed up the softening, but it will take longer at your weight.

Look, the S brands aren’t horrible, but they’re not as good as they once were. They still outsell most other brands, largely because their marketing is very good and they do an excellent job positioning their products. They capture a lot of buyers that way. That said, there’s still a pretty common theme when it comes to complaints. Good spring support, too much foam above them. More foam ends up having more sinkage. Personally, I’m not a big fan of Beautyrest or Sealy and most of the S brand lineup, even as a former owner of Sealy and Serta, but that goes back to 1980's until early 2000's, but not any more, hard pass. My previous mattress was a Sealy Posturepedic, and before that Serta Perfect Sleeper so I do have firsthand experience with them. My mother-in-law had a Beautyrest Black several years ago and the mattress only lasted about 14 months before it developed a pothole in the hip area. She bought it without asking me first. A painful disaster. After that, I ordered her a DLX Mattress Premier Hybrid. I went with a split-internal queen, firm on one side and medium on the other. She ended up loving the firm side. Unfortunately she only got about a year and a half on it before she passed away in November. But the mattress itself was still in perfect shape, no dips, no sagging, no soft spots, nothing. Still like new. That’s one reason I think it’s a great option. Being able to split the internal comfort layer is really useful, and they’re a great company to work with. I also like the GlacierSleep Apex. It has a nice 2" cushion top and sits around a medium firmness. Another one I think you might actually like is the Titan Plus Elite from Brooklyn Bedding. If you want to go outside BiB, there are some other solid companies worth looking at. BackScience makes a really good mattress and will customize each side, which can be a big plus for couples. Charles P. Rogers also makes a very nice mattress, and their Lifetime 8 is a mostly natural option. Then there is the latex lineup. Companies like European Sleep Works, Diamond Mattress with their Ethos Hybrid line, SleepEZ, Natural Dreams, and Arizona Premium Mattress all offer good latex options. Winndom is another brand worth mentioning. Their Azalea isn’t an all-natural mattress, but it’s still a solid product. There are honestly a lot of good options out there. When it comes to latex, though, you really have to try it first. Even if for a half hour in a showroom. It can be a bit tricky. Latex is extremely durable and offers great longevity, but it feels very different from traditional foams. You get a lot more pushback, even in softer to medium feels. Whatever you choose, take a close look at the construction. That matters more than the marketing. The mattress should be using quality foams, such as at least 1.8 lb high-density polyfoam in the comfort layers. If memory foam is used, I usually like to see a minimum of 4 lb density, and it’s important to know where they are using it in the mattress. Viscoelastic memory foam used as the comfort layer will usually sleep a bit warmer unless the mattress is designed with airflow or heat-dispelling channels. You may also get that stuck in quicksand hot lava feel. Some manufacturers place memory foam deeper in the mattress so it only engages during deeper compression, which can help with durability and temperature. I am a big fan of Shifman Mattresses, ViSpring, and I love the oh so expensive Hastens, cant say enough about the Hastens 2000T. If you want a mattress that you feel nothing, like floating on a cloud, keeping your body in alignment without feeling any pressure, for a mere $82k, this Hastens is the one you want.
