I was able to try the S&F estate pillow top firm and it felt almost exactly like the lakeridge from costco, maybe a tiny bit softer because it has less memory foam and more polyfoam. The extra firm s&f estate tight top had little to no give at all
I tried 8 other mattresses before we settled on one... as in we had them in our home after thinking they were the right fit and then later realized they got too soft. The one we kept in the end was from costco. My suggestion is to get a solid top for your bed frame or buy a bed frame with a solid top if you do not have one already. Cheap flexible slats only lead to problems in my experience. Some people use plywood but I would prefer a finished "nice" product. We went with a costco bedframe that has a solid top but some users have posted they can buy a solid top off amazon for a few hundred $ and it comes in 4 sections that you just lay on top of your existing slats. The mattress we kept after going through 8 others is the Sterns and Foster 14" Tight Top. We have had it for 4 months now and it is still amazing without sagging, etc. Reviews on naplab or whatever the reviewer is pertains to the medium or soft euro pillow top which I do NOT recommend as it uses a lot of foam that can get soft quick where as the tight top has less but more dense material and then the springs. Look at the weight of each mattress, if it is not a all foam mattress and it is super heavy you are probably getting what you pay for.
Not really they are usually stacked. I pull out the one I wanted and we laid on it. Lol Sooner Surplus is a hidden treasure. My mattess is Stearns and Foster 6K range and I paid $500!!
How much do you weigh? Age? Makes a big difference when mattress shopping. I have been through 4! In the past few yrs! I give them away and start over. 60 yr old with arthritis, previous back surgery with hardware, 200lbs from not being able to be active as I used to. My 6k temperpedic kills my back but my 40 yr old son says it’s comfortable. He has no back issues. So I think it all depends on the persons age & health. The S& F from Costco I read somewhere that it was made from lower end materials than one you would buy at mattress stores. Not even sewn properly on the corners. I think it could work for some. But it’s. It going to last long before the dips start.
I got to try it out locally first :) I tried the S&F Estate and the DreamStar and could hardly tell the difference between the two. The DreamStar was quite a bit cheaper. We had ordered the Douglas Alpine without trying it and ended up returning it. It was just too firm for me, I experienced shoulder, and across the back pain. We just bought it in August, so time will tell. Ours did come with a 15 year warranty though.
I recently purchased the Kirkland Sterns and Foster pillow top. Super fast delivery, free haul away of old mattress, king size was $1200 + tax. It’s a very heavy mattress that feels firmer than its “medium” description. I’m 6’3 225 and it is very comfortable for back or stomach sleeping, but a bit too firm for my hips when on my side. It’s only been 10 days, so it may still be breaking in? In another house I have a Sterns and Foster Lux Estate tight top that has held up well and is about 10 years old. This new Kirkland S&F pillow top feels about 10% firmer than the Estate Lux tight top.
Stearns & Foster. I thought I wanted a cushy mattress but decided on a medium-firm. One of the best purchases I've made in years. I have arthritis and the new mattress has helped so much.
Stearns & Foster if you want a traditional luxury mattress. Pricey, but amazing craftsmanship.
I wonder if you got a lemon . Our stern and foster from 2019 is still perfect That said I love love love the Marriott mattress and plan to buy that as our next one
I’ve had a Stearns & Foster hybrid for about 4 years. Still feels like the first day. Definitely built to last.
