I sell mattresses. Been in the business for 7 years. I have tried quite a bit and what I’m loving right now is a beautyrest black series 3 plush Pillowtop. Need a firm foundation, not slats. I’m mostly side sleeper 36yo and 195 lb and I’m loving it. But yes it’s really subjective. Another popular one is the Purple Luxe Rejuveante Plus or premier (soft vs medium), also Stearns and Foster Reserve plush Pillowtop- same thing foundation not on slats. Those are all great options.

It has been my experience that the Stearns and foster hold their support longer than the beauty rest black. They are pretty similar, but seems like Stearns and foster is better made, and holds up longer. If you do decide to purchase that, just make sure to get a foundation instead of slats or a boxspring to put it on and it’ll last much longer.

Go try a Stearns & Foster Reserve Soft Pillow Top. I just bought one and it is very comfortable. I’m a side sleeper and had a difficult time deciding. I tried this mattress and glad I bought it.

Same situ here…we opted for a S&F Reserve pillow top king, after liking their floor model….the one we received is FAR too firm. I WISH we could find a top line for $4000!! We pay extra for island shipping costs…paid $6500!! Going back in today to ask for the SOFT pillow top king reserve , after taking directly to S&F. Love to get a shot at the Custom one…you can buy from Marriot supplier??

Most important is return, replace policy. (Sample 5 from Costco?) You cannot understand any modern mattress in the store. In that sense, every store is Costco. All require sleep test 30 days min, 90 better. We returned S&F Reserve $5k slept very hot. (Was fab in store.) Got LuxAdapt Med Hybrid, it’s day 20 and sleeps better each night. Started rather firm. Does not over heat so far this winter. Do check out 3rd party resellers. See starsluckysales and others on eBay. (Plainly violates my return priority.) LuxAdapt Hybrid is very different from Adapt Hybrid and ProAdapt Hybrid. Dramatically different construction. For us, well worth upgrade, but ProAdapt (hybrid?) is their best seller. I believe due price difference. I’m 200 side, wife 160 side, we both love the LuxAdapt Med Hybrid.

It definitely broke in a bit at 30 days. Got even more comfortable. I understand from other Reddits that it will continue to change slightly up to six months. Seems about right. Also understand the room temp plays a role. We’re windows cracked in 45 degree nights. Be curious how more moderate nights and AC affect it. I feel very confident about all so far. The LuxeAdapt is very different from ProAdapt and then add in the 1400 dual springs. It amazes me the effect you get from only 4.7” of foam. 8.3” of springs must play a role too. But drive your knee into the all foam medium LuxeAdapt, it takes 30-45 seconds to rebound. Hybrid in 15 seconds.

I have 3 month old TempurPedic LuxeAdapt Med Hybrid. After baking, we sleep hot, in S&F Reserve, this TempurPedic has been a god send. 4.7” made up of 3 different TempurPedic foams with top layer featuring dime sized holes, it’s just about perfect heat and firmness. Rest is 15.5 gauge springs on top of 15 gauge springs. If the LuxeAdapt is cool, I hope the Breeze is too. 2 contradictory points. The most important thing about a mattress is the return policy. In store visits are 80% useless. You MUST test out at least 30 days. Second, check out 3rd party resellers on eBay. Starsluckysales for one. Half off or better, but no return. All those returned mattresses (like my S&F Reserve) end up somewhere. You’ve slept on used mattresses before. Hotel? Air B&B?

Nope. Stearns and Foster Reserve. Worth every dime and the only mattress I will ever use again. Cured shouder neck and back aches from sleeping wrong on a bad mattress.
