The Anatomy of a Mattress: Stearns and Foster Reserve

[@peterpanagiotis1]

I bought the Octave Horizon mattress and I could not be happier. Not the cheapest option but for someone who has a lot of pressure points that need reiief, you can't get better and the support is unreal. You sink in just a bit and get cuddled in and then you feel the support. I absolutely love my mattress! 🥰

This information is so valuable in educating people so they can make informed descions on what bed will be best for them physically and financially. Thank you.

[@chrisdobz4468]

Mattresses are a racket! Just bought a 2023 Sterns & Fosters Reserve, Medium, King from my cousin that can get them direct from the factory through Sealy. The MSRP is $5,200 and he got it to me delivered for $1,560. That’s 70% discount and they are still making a healthy profit of at least 200% on that transaction alone. The only thing sold today with better profit margins are Diamonds (which are a complete scam).

[@CaBdosdos]

Yea the mark up is insane on the mattress industry. That's why everything is always on "sale". These things cost 1/5 minimum to make and ship versus what they charge.

I'm so glad you show and explain the anatomy of a S&F mattress! I've been very curious about what's inside these beautiful, expensive mattresses. I laid down on one in a store recently and thought it was extremely comfortable, but that price! Now I know the good and the over-hyped.Thanks!

If you have a Costco membership, they have them on sale right now, just bought one for around $1,300 king size including box mattress and taxes and free shipping.

[@ODK321]

@@victortrujillo2591 I looked into buying that one. I checked online reviews and they were not good for the S&F mattress they sell at Costco. It's like a Costco only one. Have you been enjoying it? I may reconsider.

[@victortrujillo2591]

@@ODK321 yes, I really like my S&F mattress. It feels like a firm mattress and I personally like this type of mattress, firm. If I had to do it again, I will definitely purchase another one. This Costco S&F mattress is seriously heavy. I am not able to lift it on my own.

[@hastensavoir7782]

Which model did you lay on? They have recent ‘innovations’ with the Hybrid models, the comfort layers are integrated right on top of the springs which gives totally independent conformance. VERY similar to what Carpe Diem beds started.

I appreciate and saw your post today, Feb 1st, 2023 I decided to go with a Stearns & Foster, The Studio model. I have been trying to find a bed that will give me lower back support. Went from latex to purple, to an Intellibed, and not one gave me the support I am looking for. The Intellibed soft was a big mistake, I lay on this bed and felt the pain right away from lower back pain after having it for two years, today I am now going to try the Stearns & Foster Studio. My bed is a Twin XL does not mean a get a better price. I am praying tonight I will felt the support, the new bed will be a Medium Firm. Bought at Mattress Firm. Get 120 days to test it out. God Bless

[@arlofs]

Stearns & Foster used to make true premium mattresses. Not anymore. As the video showed, they’re made of plastic (polyurethane-based foam). No lambswool, cashmere or any natural material whatsoever (not even latex). You’d have to buy a British-made luxury mattress to get something comparable to your old S&F

@@ramkumarchandrasekar263 We love it. It's truly a medium feel which is what we wanted. I was Leary about a pillow top mattress, but they did a great job with the feel and support.

The warranty card has Lux Estate on it. We also ordered the foundation for it from Costco. Costco has a great return policy if it doesn't work out for you.

Have an almost 3 yo Sterns&Foster Cassatt Ultra Plush EPT Queen. Slight dip where we lay all night but nothing serious. I am an edge side sleeper and the edge support is awesome. We rotate it every 6-8 months (heavy). It bends and recovers well on the adjustable base. Wife Unit is still happy so all is good. At 66+ yo, our hip and shoulder arthritis bothers us from time to time, but as this is also true on vacations, I don't think the mattress is to blame. 10/10 rating from our diva Yorkie, 8/10 from us (price and weight). Very well constructed. I miss our '80s Waveless Waterbed.

Can latex still give you that plush softness as the foam?

[@sdmattressmakers]

Hi @jefffisher1045, it is a bit more challenging to accomplish the softness with latex but still possible, or at least get close. However if you layer it the right way you can accomplish the softness. Our 12” Presidio soft would be the one I would go to

[@thor7262]

We have a Hurston Estate Luxury Firm king size mattress. It started getting dips after the first month. We rotated monthly because of how much pain we had trying to sleep on it. I filed a warranty claim after a year and a half because the gullies were just getting worse. To file a claim you have to print their measuring paper, and do measurements with a broom handle across the bed. Then you have to lift the bed and stand it up because they want pictures of the foundation and frame. We were shocked to see that the frame we bought with the mattress is also sagging. We aren’t overweight, but I guess the heavy mattress was too much for the matching foundation. So, the dips when we sent the pictures were 1.5 one one side and slightly less on the other. It was rotated a week prior to that. Our claim was denied. Please research thoroughly before buying a Stearns and Foster. The price is high enough, but the quality isn’t!
