Jasmine River Ultra Plush

DIY build; Texas Pocket Coil 15.5g 8" pocket coil quad springs, Avocado 3" Dunlop medium firm topper as transition layer and 2" soft all natural (not blended) talalay topper from Arizona Premium Mattress as comfort layer and APM organic cotton mattress encasement. Turned out a medium firm contouring bed that has been a dream. Better firmer mattress than premium green Avocado mattress. My build was $1,300 vs $2,900 from Avocado. Couldn't be happier with quality of it all. My whole life I have been a stomach sleeper on a firm mattress.  I am a 5'-5" 185lb 53 yo male. I now can comfortably sleep on my side all night with no tossing and turning and less snoring. That was in conjunction with switching from down pillows to an Etsy build merino wool, cotton encased pillow that really helps limit tossing and turning as well.  I was coming from an 18 yo Sealy posturepedic purembrace plush pillow top latex and polyurethane foam mattress that I loved but had become sagged over time. I hadn't noticed the loss of back support as it was very comfortable. However my bulging discs said otherwise. 

The company that I finally zeroed in on is Turmerry. It has been a blessing for optional configurations. Before I explain why and how I was able to customize my perfect mattress here's the background: Originally I had a latex mattress which was a combination of both natural Talalay latex and synthetic high resilient foam. This Sealy Latex Mattress was super expensive at the time because there was little knowledge and no competition. The unflippable mattress lasted 11 years before the Talalay created unbearably low pockets where my hips lay. I am only 5', 120 lbs., so weight was not the issue. The top layer of Talalay was too soft. I replaced it with a Saatva Classic hybrid. It lasted 4 years before, what I believe, were weak gauged coils and low density foam created unpockets. Reddit has a plethora of similar complaints about this Saatva. Yet you never see them online. ??? Finally I went with a Turmerry. Why? Because the model I chose had all the features I wanted for support, longevity, flexibility of configuration, customer care, etc. Note I haven't mentioned comfort. The reason is simple. Turmerry uses Dunlop in various densities: soft, medium, firm, etc. Even their softest layer is too firm for me. Even the eggcrate's points (princessy peas) are too hard. Yet Dunlop's durability lasts many years longer than even the hardest Talalay. So the trick was to add a Talalay mattress topper. Even better was to add a layer of Talalay inside the mattress. Even better was to a have a mattress with a zipper all the way around so I could replace the Talalay with a new one when it wore out (about 3 yrs.) or remove, exchange the order of firmness layers to suit me. Even better was to have a flippable mattress so all 4 corners had evenly distributed weight. Even better was the price compared to other companies. I bought during Black Friday week and had my mattress assembled within 5 days. I haven't decided on the company or softness of the Talalay yet. Also considering a Duralux layer. It is a certiPUR-US certified high-resilient foam used in quality upholstery and mattresses. Also used in many rvs. It lasts a lot longer than Talalay. If you are interested, I will update which one I think is better: Duralux or Talalay. Wishing you and your husband pleasant sleeps!

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.

We got a black friday mattress on sale "mattress in a box" for a few hundred dollars & it is about as good as our old Sealy Posturpedic we had for 10 years. We figured, a few hundred every few years is better than 2-3k for one Sealy. The Sealy was good for about 5 years. So it's either 3k every 5 years or 500 every 3-5 years. I should've bought the mattress in a box sooner 😆

Sealy Posturpedic has been a game change for me. I never have back pain. I love it. I'm a few weeks from 56.

Our antepenultimate mattress was a high-priced Sealy Posturpedic from Jordans. Within six years, we knew it was a mistake. The doctor recommended an adjustable bed to my spouse, so we headed for the local Mattress Firm. We found a very knowledgeable salesperson, who had to be told to please show us the best. For the past several years, we’ve been sleeping in the most comfortable bed on earth; high-end Tempur Pedic on a fully adjustable frame. A couple months ago, we stayed in my elderly parents’ guest room and discovered the beds were terrible. The very next day, we went to their local Mattress Firm and found reasonably priced very comfortable mattresses on sale, with adjustable frames thrown in. They delivered the very next day, and we’ve heard back from their “Sleep Expert” a few times now just making sure that the beds were perfect. I don’t think I’ll ever go anywhere but Mattress Firm again.
