As usual, this man's explanation and details are what the consumer needs to learn before choosing a mattress!
You're very kind -- I'm so glad to hear that this was helpful for you!
Love this guy. Thanks soooo much for the detailed info!!!!
THANKS so much!! We're happy our review was helpful!
Love this channel! Helped me decide
Glad to hear it! Thanks for the comment and sleep well!
Thanks , I'm watching your videos from France, I'm in the matress buisness. Very good products...
Glad you like them!
Had a Posturepedic that lasted about 14yrs, center was sagging but still good quality. Just picked up a Posturepedic+ Brant this week. So far, very soft and comfortable. Hope it holds up as long as it's predecessor.
Hi Johnny. Please keep us posted! Enjoy your new mattress and thanks for the comment.
Just bought one. How has it been?
Thx !!! Great intro while i am looking for a Sealy mattress :D
Our pleasure Calvin -- thanks for letting us know it's helpful for you!
FIRST... I think the Exuberant Ultra Soft would be good for me as a side sleeper with severe chronic pain issues. Thanks for explaining about pocketed coils & changes in wire, etc...
You bet -- thanks for the comment!
Sciatica survivor who *never* wants to go through *pain like that ever again* So...
Went into a Slumberland and checked out what they had.
Other than not quite being able to finance a Stearns & Foster Lux...
I found the Satisfied ii 14" medium euro top to be my *ahh, just right* bed =) Vid was helpful. Thanks!
Excellent! Sciatica pain is the WORST. Glad you found a mattress that fits your needs, and that our review was helpful!
How did you win the battle against sciatica? 😩 I’m currently struggling!
Recently replaced a Sealy Hybrid Lacy Firm that started having issues within 4 months. I'm 6'2 and 177lbs and that's ridiculous. I chose to replace this with Sealy Posturepedic Brennaman Plus Firm mattress, which feels like I'm sleeping on a bed of Marshmallows. This one is going right back. I've decided to purchase the Fieldcrest Natural Firm, which blows the doors off of the Sealy line. It’s worth the upcharge in price. I will never buy a Sealy again. Totally done with them.
I definitely prefer firmer mattresses, but it would be nice to have a medium one with that extra softness in my guest room maybe, for the rare times I am in the type of pain where I would need the extra softness. With the health issues I have, the extra firm and really good support is what I need, but I do have nights that I just can't get comfortable and I'm not sure, but I think that the extra softness might help.
Hi Jennifer. For a guest room, we would typically recommend something in the medium range -- tends to be the preference of most people. And of you choose a model that has some memory foam in the top layer, you might find that gives you the pressure relief you need on occasion.
Hope that helps!
My 12 inch ultra firm is coming next week! (Series ii)
I have the Sealy Posturepedic innerspring mattress it's a year old and has the center thrid with extra memory foam. It's the memory foam causing inflammation that I have had. I flipped the no flip mattress as a test run to see if the inflammation in my hips, feet, back, arms, shoulders would change or dissipate within a week the inflammation has calmed down almost gone. The other issue the mattress is soft and is the energetic mattress that I have to sleep horizontally at the lower third of the mattress no matter if it's on the foam side or the no flip side because I it's the least position that allows me to get some sleep. Why didn't I return the mattress? Well I did return the initial side sleeper due to intense back pain by the third day. The store would only allow an exchange not a return because they could not sell the mattress to recupe losses. I was always a Sealy Posterpedic brand customer most of my adult life until this memory foam crap was developed. I thought of the Sleep Number bed of which I owned one until 2019 which made it 18 years of use. At the time it didn't have the memory foam now Sleep Number has memory foam. I tried a Therapeutic mattress likewise memory foam. Brand new mattress I ended up giving it away because of inflammation. Had I known Sealy uses memory foam I never would have bought the Sealy set. All I want is a classic mattress without memory foam. I can't wear memory foam in shoes.... try finding shoes without that health damaging crap in it.... almost impossible. When you ruin the health of your customer base you have no more customers. What's wrong with all these original American companies that used to make great quality and affordable products that customers loved????
Hi Donna. Memory foam is pretty polarizing -- some people love it, and for others it just really does not work for them. There are definitely mattresses today that do not use any memory foam at all. For a traditional-feeling mattress, Saatva comes to mind. It's an innerspring mattress with comfort foams, but none of that memory foam feeling. Here's the link to our review -- it's also made in the USA. www.goodbed.com/reviews/saatva-mattress-review/
Some other mattresses you might explore with no memory foam:
Allswell -- traditional feeling and no memory foam: www.goodbed.com/reviews/allswell-mattress-review/
Brooklyn Signature -- hybrid mattress with springs and no memory foam: www.goodbed.com/reviews/brooklyn-signature-mattress-review/
Hope that's helpful!
@goodbed are any of these bed the crown jewel series of sealy mattresses? Try to find reviews fir3 the crown jewel series
How would you compare this Sealy ultra firm to the beauty rest ultra firm? Which one would you say is softener?
Awesome video! I have pretty bay back and neck pain my neck has gotten pretty sensitive. I am searching to buy a good mattress for back pain. I’ve only tried the Beautyrest pressure smart and that felt good I’ve red that Sealy is good for back pain though. What’s your thoughts on Beautyrest? Thank you.
Don't buy a seally. Its not furm enough. I got the Sealy plus Satisfied II Ultra Firm and I gave it to my son, I have a bad back and ended up buying a plank.
Hi Thanks for uploading this it helped a lot!
I went to a mattress store and laid on a Sealy Hybrid Gold Premium 15-Inch Ultra Plush and really loved it. I've been doing research on that one vs Sealy Posturepedic Plus Exuberant II 15" Ultra Plush Mattress and they look exactly the same spec wise. Is there any real notable difference between the Gold Premium and Exuberant? And is it worth the $500-600 price difference?
Hi Yusuf. We haven't had the Gold Premium model in our test room, but it certainly appears to be very similar. The Exuberant may have an inch or two more memory, but probably not enough to make a huge difference.
Sealy (and other store brands) typically make dozens of slight variations so that stores can sell them as "exclusives" yet they are very similar from a feel/functionality standpoint.
Hope that's helpful!!
Is there a box spring? Do they still fit in the old style bed frame?
Im thinking of getting the ultra plush one for 2000 for my birthday on the 30th. There is a sale where u get a free adjustable base if u enter a code online.
Hello and I like your reviews very much. I like the Sealy Posturepedic Plus line, but wonder is it worth the $200 price difference than purchasing the Response Premium? Is the PPlus the way to go because it has the newer technology?
Hi Dayna. It really depends on what you want. The two collections have a lot in common. The Response models have a more traditional look, with a smooth cover, while the Plus collection models have very deep quilting on top. Both come in varying feels and heights, and in both collections, the more expensive models have more memory foam. So in both collections, you should be able to find a feel/firmness that works for you. If you like a more traditional mattress look at feel, check out the Response. If you want that really deep quilting, take a closer look at the Plus.
Hope that helps!
@@goodbed thank you for replying. Yes, your info does help.
How do you think about Sealy Posturepedic Plus and Hotel Elegance?
What bed do you own?
Also wonder how you think the Sealy brand compares to stearns and foster. Obviosuly many preference variables but what about over all quality in general?? We're shopping for a new mattress that we plan to have for a while. Thx!
Your reviews are the best wow.
Hi Laura. Thank you for the comment. Our founder Mike never divulges his own bed -- because GoodBed believes mattress shopping is entirely personal. So while his bed works great for him, it may be a poor choice for you.
As far as Sealy vs Stearns & Foster, both have a wide range of mattresses. Stearns & Foster certainly has more choice on the upper end that use more luxurious and higher quality materials and construction. That said, they also have some starting models that overlap more in price and quality with the higher end of the Sealy line. In general, in cases where prices are comparable, we don't think there's any reason to believe that one will hold up longer or less than another, especially since they are made by the same company. So, apart from your budget, if you are set on one of those two brands, your choice might come down to your retailer and how confident you are in the sales, delivery and exchange service. If you aren't thrilled with your bed once you get it, what will they do to make sure you are happy?
Hope that's helpful!
Sealy owns Stearns and Foster.
The plus models of the posturpedic are the exact same as Sterns current intro model, the studio. Except you can get this in a queen on sale for $900 and the studio is regularly 1800-2000 and never goes on sale.
@MariaElena-re7dt they can yes. However I will say that when buying an adjustable base, make sure the foundation of it doesn't have any give whatsoever. I had an adjustable base and I sold it. It was a bit of a cheaper model and just not supportive enough. Also if you aren't a stick back sleeper there isnt a point in getting one.
If you already use one or have one that works for you then by all means, the bed will work fine on it.
Hi. I bought the ulta plush exuberant II 15", but it only measures 13 1/2 inches. Noticeably different from my previous 15" Sealy. Is there a great manufacturing range of height in your experience with Sealy? Wondering if I should exchange.
Hi. That's a pretty big difference. Certainly we can see an inch of variation -- it often has to do with where they measure, at the side, at the corner, or in the middle. And especially with mattresses that have a puffy quilted top, it can be hard to tell exactly where they've measured. I suppose I would first check the label and make sure you were sent the correct model, because there are others that measure shorter.
Now, is it worth send it back? Well, that's up to you. If you intended it to fit into a specific piece of furniture, then maybe? But if you're sleeping well and like it, then maybe it's not worth it. Up to you!
Which one is the brandywine drive?
Will that top wear out quickly on the exuberant models like pillow tops?
Hi and thanks for the question. Just generally, a mattress with a very soft pillow top has the potential to soften up further down the line. We would not call this 'wearing out' but some softening can be expected as the years go on, and that's just because the materials are starting out softer in the first place. Of course, that is true of all mattresses, but sometimes those that are very soft on top will see that happen sooner.
You do still have a warranty, however, to protect against any severe body impressions that may form. For most hybrid mattresses it's about 1.5", so you do have that protection.
Hope that helps!
Could you please tell what is the exact model adm specs of the mt auburn medium king from Costco
I have the same question. If you find out, do you mind share any info. I want to buy it at costco, but want to know what im buying first.
What are the major differences between a Sealy Posturepedic 14 in Humbolt ltd cushion pillow top mattress versus a Sealy Posturepedic 14 in Grand Avenue cushion firm pillow top?
The difference is that they are sold at different stores -- one at BJs and one at JC Penney. It's very common for Sealy to make slight design variations and give a mattress a different name -- then the store can sell it as an "exclusive". In reality, the differences are likely small -- different cover fabric, maybe a slightly different foam.
Hope that helps!
Do the product lines in Singapore have different namesv? It’s really confusing there’s like aspire, posturelux, posturepremier and exquisite here. 😩😩😩
Hi Lester. It is HIGHLY probable that the names are different -- and perhaps the materials as well, depending on country-specific manufacturing guidelines. Sorry we can't be of help...
Vs the beautyrest 900? Thoughts
Which one would be the one costco carries?
It looks like the Medium Satisfied Series spoke about from 5:30 to 7:30
Will the posturepedic series work with adjustable bases?
Hi Javier -- Thanks for your question. Yes, all of the mattresses shown in this video are adjustable base compatible.
Hey was hoping to comment on a video to get an answer. Really struggling finding a mattress for a family member who is 6'8" and 400lbs. He needs a lot of support and he sleeps very hot. What are the best options for him? Budget does matter so anything around 1000$ and under is ideal. Thank you very much!
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. I would highly recommend checking out our guide on this topic, which not only offers some specific mattress recommendations for larger people, but it also provides a complete explanation of the unique considerations that heavier folks should have when picking out a mattress.
www.goodbed.com/guides/best-mattress-heavy-people/
I hope that's helpful for you.
@@goodbed Thanks for the link; any reason why Big Fig isn't listed there? I watched all your reviews and stuff along with other peeps too and it just seems like the Titan and some others won't be sturdy enough over a long period of time. It took me like 4 years to find a gaming chair for him that won't break down.
Hi again. Big Fig is just one we haven't gotten to reviewing -- after COVID restrictions were put in place, we lost access to our facility where we review products. So we have a bit of a back log that we can't wait to get back to.
As for the longevity of mattresses that are marketed for heavy people, we look to the manufacturer's policies for some guidance. For the Titan, the standard 1" body impression warranty Brooklyn Bedding uses for all of its products applies. (Body impressions are what I'm assuming you are most concerned about.) Some manufactures go better than that, though.
King Koil, for example, warrants its Extended Life (XL) mattress for body impressions of 1/2" or more -- that is the best body impression warranty we have seen, and in our view would certainly give good peace of mind in terms of durability.
www.goodbed.com/reviews/king-koil-world-extended-life-mattress-preview/
The Hybrid Infinity from Sit 'n' Sleep also has a good one -- 3/4", along with some of the strongest coils we have seen in a mattress. So while not specifically marketed for heavier people, we thought that one would really be a contender. Here's our review: www.goodbed.com/reviews/hybrid-infinity-mattress-preview/
Hope that helps!
I bought this but there’s a sticky noise underneath it’s coming from the inside of the mattress I called Macy and they said there’re going to send someone to inspect it do you think they’re going to exchange my mattes if it has this sticky tacky noise in the matress it’s not loud but it’s not quiet either
How odd. Please let us know what happens. We didn't notice any strange noises when we tried these, but we were in a showroom, not at home. I assume you checked and it isn't your foundation? When we hear mattress noises, 9 times out of 10 it's the foundation....
GoodBed they said there was nothing wrong and that it will go away in time I think I’m just gonna return it unbelievable
Does the Sealy 14" plush euro pillow top contain fiberglass.
Given that it's a Euro Top design, we think it's unlikely to have fiberglass, though Sealy would, of course, be the ultimate authority on this.
I bought this mattress but the box spring is really making my bed too high now. Do these beds need box springs or are there alternatives?
You should get a low box spring if you can find one or if you can't find one a piece of plywood would work great too
Hi Sandy. The bed needs some kind of base, but that could be a platform bed (no box spring required) or even a frame with an added bunkie board. You can also pretty easily find "slim" box supports that are between 4" and 7" tall, which might help too. Lots of options!
I'm considering getting the Queen Sealy Posturepedic Response Performance Cooper Mountain IV Plush Pillow Top 14 Inch Mattress. I weigh 240lbs and I'm a side sleeper. I'm a disabled veteran so I have to spend most of my time in bed and I'm hoping this one can support me and be durable enough not to get dips in it. What do you recommend?
Thanks
I hope he answers this. I’m wondering too
My sealy mattress is too warm and I don't have good sleep every night.. Does anyone have same problem as mine?
I looked at this bed in JCPennys last weekend and while I prefer a firm mattress I figured the medium would be good for me and my husband since we currently have a Serta super pillow top. That said the display was a queen size with one half of the mattress supposedly being the medium and the other half represented as the soft. Both me, my husband and the sales representative felt like the soft side was firmer than the medium side. Since You didn’t explain any remarkable differences between the two mattresses we couldn’t understand why the soft side would feel firmer than the medium side. The representative gave me a copy of the brochure and said I should google each of the different foam materials to better understand. I was like don’t you know this? That said any advise you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Hi -- you don't mention which Posturepedic Plus you tried -- the "Opportune" "Satisfied" or "Exuberant". Do you remember?
Thank you for responding and my apologies that should have been the first thing I mentioned, it was the Sealy® Posturepedic Plus Porteer Medium and Soft Pillow Top.
Ah -- we don't have information on the 'Porteer'. It is probably a store exclusive to JC Penneys rather than one of Sealy's collections that are available in lots of other stores (the Opportune, Satisfied, and Exuberant lines). So we don't have information on that materials of the mattress you saw. Sealy (and other mattress makers) do this all the time -- they create 'exclusive' models for particular stores so you can't compare prices with other stores.
So I don't know which of the Posturepedic Plus mattresses would be most similar to the "Porteer"
Did you end up purchasing the mattress? This is the one I’m considering from JC Penny.
@@yuniqueglam I am also interested in purchasing the Porteer at JC Pennys. Did you purchase it? I was also considering saving about $170 and purchasing the older line the Response Premium at Costco. Those Darn renamed mattresses antics make it hard to compare...
Hi,since this brand comes with different names from other retailer. Does this brand have the greenguard gold certificate and/or maybe oeko tek?Thanks i am sensitive to voc and can’t afford organic mattress.Thanks so much!!! Hope you can help me out here!
Darn it! I swear I answered your question a couple of days ago, but I don't see it. Anyway -- no. These Sealy models are not certified Greenguard Gold or OEKO-tek. The big brands have been slower to apply for these certifications than the smaller brands.
There's a good list on US-MAttress of certified models: us.mattress.zone/greenguard-gold-certified-mattresses/
Just looking at that list, one of the least expensive is the Nest Love & Sleep -- it wasn't Greenguard Gold certified when we reviewed it, but it is now. Here's our review: th-cam.com/video/G7oAFs8kr84/w-d-xo.html
That mattress is about $700 in a queen size, but right now they are running a holiday sale that brings the price down to $525. Here's the link -- use code HIBERNATE to get that deal: www.goodbed.com/o/d/3241/nest-bedding/
Not trying to steer you to that mattress in particular -- we've been tracking holiday deals and that's certainly a good one if you are looking for a Greenguard certified model.
Hope that's helpful!
@@goodbed I am so glad you replied with all the other options. There is one though I forgot to mention to you. We live in Canada and there's not a lot of brands unlike in the US. Contacted Nectar they do not ship here. There are 2 that I am aware of . Tuff and needle that is available in Canada but afraid Tuff and Needle's edge support might be a problem. How about tuff and needle mint? I read mix reviews about tuff and needle original's edge support. (our kids move to our bed in the middle of the night so we are being pushed to the corners). What about Tuff and Needle mint?
Canada has Endy mattress but watch other you tubers edge is very bad Sorry I am telling you quite a bit. But yeah, I am pretty disappointed why big brands do not think having Greenguard and/or Oeko Tek will be perfect for people who can't afford organic mattresses.
Thank you so so much.
Oh -- that does change things. We have reviews of both the Tuft and Needle as well as the Mint, and you can see us demonstrating the edge support of both.
Original Tuft & Needle: th-cam.com/video/uWmR5C1rJIA/w-d-xo.html Edge support discussed at 12:29
Tuft & Needle Mint: th-cam.com/video/e_Dyn6GvWpI/w-d-xo.html Edge support discussion is at 14:42
Did you know there's also a Tuft & Needle Hybrid? Mattresses with spring support often have better edge support. Here's our review: th-cam.com/video/SzeBz19Uqqk/w-d-xo.html Edge support is discussed at about 9:51
Of the three, the Mint and the Hybrid have much better edge support.
We also review the Endy: th-cam.com/video/boh7NPkc4ZM/w-d-xo.html
We were actually surprised by how good the edge support was -- you can see our 200-pound tester laying and sitting on it. The edge support section starts at 6:56
Hope that all helps!!
@@goodbed Are there any other brands that you know of for Canada that has what I need? Figure out you know better like you were at the beginning suggesting other brands to me. By the way, I would like to let everyone know that i have messaged others like you who reviews mattresses and nobody gets back to me at all. This alone makes me very satisfied and appreciate you telling consumers to be aware of others who might be not very objective due to some personal connections.
Hi Nancy. Unfortunately we just do not know the Canadian market well beyond where there's crossover with the US market. So our best suggestions from what we've tested would be those Tuft & Needle models. I also don't know of anyone in Canada testing models as well as we do. Note that Tuft & Needle does have a solid return policy -- so you could try one in your home and see if it works for you.
I have very bad arthritis and chronic unrelenting pain. I purchased one of these Sealy Pillow Top mattresses.
The problem now is I don’t want to get out of the bed. This mattress is so comfortable I feel like I died and went to heaven. I also purchased one of the movable adjusting bases. Between the mattress and the base they are without a doubt the best purchase I’ve made in years. I just wish I would have purchased this bed sooner. The one thing that I do find quizzical is --- the length of the mattress. I am 5’6 1/2 in and my head exactly meets the top of the mattress and my feet are at the very edge of the bottom of the mattress. If someone is 6 feet tall -- their feet would be hanging over the bottom of the mattress. I don’t get it. What gives with that ?
Hi Lily. Thanks for your comment and we're so happy this solution is working for you!
I assume you are referring to the mattress in its articulated/bent position. The answer is that mattresses sizes were standardized way before adjustable bases were a "thing" and all of our furniture, frames, and even bedrooms are designed around those standard sizes. But as you note, when you fold a mattress like a big taco, you lose a lot of the length.
The best, though imperfect, solution for taller folks who want to use an adjustable base is to go with a California king size. This size is four inches longer than a standard bed.
Can you review the Costco line up?
@@goodbed you are absolutely the best reviewer of mattresses! I'm looking for 2 things in a mattress coming from my research. 1)I need increased coil support in the hip area as every single mattress I've owned sagged there. 2) latex top layer for added durability. These two things would be my dream bed. Can you tell me what mattresses offer these specs?
Does the sealy posturepedic mount auburn mattress need a box spring or foundation? Or would it be fine on my bed frame (wood slats) ?
Does the medium, soft and firm feel like they should? Currious about the satisfied medum tight top and pillow tops. Do they feel like mediums, guessing the pillw top feesl a bit softer.
This is a bit hard to say precisely, but based on feedback we've heard we think the Satisfied Medium Tight Top is a bit closer to a Medium Firm and the Pillow Top is closer to a true Medium. Hope that helps.
@@goodbed Really appreciate your response and all your work on your site. Thanks a lot.
Hi. Im 5'6". 160 pounds. Would you say the Satisfied medium will be good for hip pain ?
@@kota11334 This is a hard question to answer as everyone feels firmness very differently. That said, we've found that most people tend to feel the "Medium" Sealy options as closer to a firm and the "Plush" Sealy options as closer to a true medium. Both might improve your hip pain, though our instinct would be to recommend that you look at the Plush option instead of the Medium. Hope that helps!
I just ordered the Satisfied Medium Tight Top in a king after several weeks of research and the retailer didn't have one on the floor but in comparison he showed me the Beautyrest Pressure Smart 2.0 Plush 11.75 " except it had the foam encasement , do you think that's a fair comparison ?
Does anyone else hear this, Mike sounds EXACTLY like John Krasinski/Jim from The Office! 😆
You are *definitely* not the first person to say that! 😆
Does sealy use fiberglass?
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. AFAIK, all Sealy mattresses are made in the US, and I'm not aware of fiberglass being used in US-made mattresses at this point in time. I hope that's helpful.
Can you flip these mattress?
You cannot. You can (and should) rotate them, but they are not designed to be flipped over.
Can't buy. They don't have at Macy's. They're still stuck with the 2017 line up.
Just out of curiosity, is there any particular reason you'd feel limited to buying from Macy's?
@@goodbed greetings new here would like to ask you a question
Try Costco
Where is the $500-$700 range that JC Phonney carries?
Hi and thanks for the comment.
JC Penny contracts with Sealy to offer "exclusive" mattresses -- that means they are only available at JC Penny, and it's virtually impossible to find any info on them except from the store. It makes it really hard to tell where these models might compare to others in the Posturepedic Plus lineup, and that's really the whole point, that consumers can't easily compare apples to apples.
One plus is that the JC Penney versions ARE using the same little icons that we discuss in our video -- so depending which mattress you are looking at, you could match up the icons with the mattresses we discuss. That should give you a pretty good comparison.
I was looking at a Sealy Posturpedic Diggens line .. are they still making them ?
What is "Porteer" medium?
This looks like a brick and mortar name for the base Posturepedic Plus innerspring. Unfortunately, it is very common for mattress manufacturers to vary the names of their products slightly between retailers, but it should be very similar (or identical) to the mattresses detailed in the video here. I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed thank you. I purchased.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Does this mattress use a box spring?
Hello Karen. Thanks for the comment. This mattress (indeed any mattress) can be placed directly on the floor, or needs some kind of supportive foundation or frame. The manufacturers typically have a page on their website outlining the type of foundation that's acceptable. Today's mattresses are quite heavy, and for that reason, most recommend a foundation or frame with center support -- usually an additional leg in the middle, or for a box-type foundation, wood slats that go all the way across.
We have an article on GoodBed about the different types: www.goodbed.com/mattress-foundation/
Hope that helps!
I am looking at rooms to go Posturepedic plus Starley. I don’t know what series it is but it is called elite Posturepedic plus. I do not see a way to attach the description on this comment so that you could help. Thinking about buying it online while it is on sale for $997. But the closest place is over 100 miles away so I won’t be able to test it out. So I would really like to know which series it is. Do you have an idea? Thank you.
Marble is more dense than wood so it's cooler...oookay
Hi Joshua, TBH I can't tell if this is sincere or sarcastic, but if you have any questions about that analogy, I'm happy to help clarify. If you've ever compared the hand feel temp of a marble countertop and an unpolished wood surface in the same room, you'll definitely know what we mean. I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed I can appreciate what you're doing with these videos it's just that explanation seemed very much out of your rear end.
@@JoshuaCollins Fair enough! Sometimes people like to understand why things work, and in this case I personally find that to be a helpful and relatable analogy to understand the physics of why denser materials are better conductors (and therefore feel cooler to the touch). Clearly it's not helpful for everyone though! 😆 Nonetheless, we sincerely appreciate the feedback. Have a great evening.
@@goodbed In the interest of why things work, here's the primary reason why marble feels cooler than wood:
Density does have an effect, but it is more related to the material’s heat capacity (the amount of heat required to change its temperature). Denser materials like marble can store more thermal energy than less dense materials like wood. However, in the context of feeling cooler, thermal conductivity is the more significant factor.
So, it is primarily the thermal conductivity of marble that is responsible for it feeling cooler than wood.
The moore you knooow.
@@JoshuaCollins Yes, thank you. Always happy to engage with folks on the science of mattresses! I do understand of course that the real driver of feeling cooler is the thermal conductivity, not the density, as mentioned in our comment above. But of course, the context here was explaining why the manufacturer's use of a "higher-density yarn" might result in a cover that feels cooler. To this end, I thought the analogy of comparing marble and wood - two familiar materials that have both disparate density and proportionately disparate conductivity - was a straightforward and relatable way to explain this. Admittedly, I skipped some of the scientific nuance by not getting into the connection between density and thermal conductivity, but this was simply in the interest of keeping the explanation more concise, and making it clear and understandable for as wide an audience as possible.
I hope that's helpful - thanks again!
Why would we care about a "cooling soft touch cover" whan Everyone puts on a Mattress Cover and then a Bottom Fitted Sheet right?
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. It's true that nobody sleeps on a mattress with nothing on it (well, almost nobody). When we have looked at these cooling covers in the past, the 'cooling' sensation can be fairly subtle to begin with in some cases -- and yes, sheets and a mattress protector will certainly mute that initial coolness to the touch to a degree. That said, the cooling capacity will remain the same, since the heat from your body will certainly still reach beyond your sheets. But it's true that the surface of the mattress won't feel as cool. I hope that's helpful.
General rule. Never buy any mattress that begins with a S. No Sealy, Serta, Simmons. All suck
Hi Jim. Thanks for the comment. While I certainly appreciate your frustration, I wouldn't necessarily agree with that sentiment. What I would say is that those three brands each offer many different mattresses covering a wide range of prices and materials. As such, there are some that will inevitably be less durable -- which can unfortunately affect the reputation of the entire brand -- while others will do much better.
I would also add that your frustration is part of the reason that so many online brands have become popular in recent years. By offering a small number of models with more consistent materials and an easy buy/exchange policy, they've simplified the process considerably.
Thanks again for your comment. I hope that's helpful.
nice video only problem is that Sealy's spring mattresses are garbage
Hi Tim. Sealy has a staggering number of models for sale, everything from very inexpensive discount-store models up to luxury beds. The springs aren't all the same in all those models -- there's a very wide variance. We certainly think the springs on the Plus line are high quality and built to last, but certainly some of the budget lines will be made differently.
Please I need your expertise in this matter. 🙏🏽
I’m 42 years old, 5’3 tall and 142 pounds with back issues (pain), for the last 7 years I owned a Sealy Posturpedic Surrey (queen size) that I absolutely loved. Six months ago I got married and moved in with my now husband and got rid of my bed. 🤦🏾♀️ He has a king size bed and his Tempurpedic Rhapsody Breeze has been killing my back, so we went to mattress firm, told them what I wanted (Sealy Surrey) and they just told me that it was discontinued and proceeded to suggest me beautyrest, it has been a nightmare for my back, I’m currently on the second beautyrest mattress and I can absolutely say that this brand is not good for my back pain.
Can you please advise me on what would it be the closest to the Surrey lane in the new models? After watching your video my guess is the Sealy Posturpedic Plus Oportune II Medium, is that correct? I want nothing to do with memory foam or pillow toppers.
Also, the Beautyrest Extra firm was way too firm, like to sleep on concrete and now the Beautyrest Firm, is way too soft and back pain won’t go away. I’m so embarrassed with my husband, this incident makes me look like I don’t know what I really need.
Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this message and get back at me.
Hi. Which mattress did you wind up getting ? I have the same problem.
@@kota11334 I bought that mattress on Amazon, finally solved my problem. I highly recommend this
