When my husband and I were first married, nearly 60 years ago, we had the money to purchase only one item of furniture. It was a Stearns & Foster mattress. Over the years when that mattress had to be replaced...and we needed beds for our two daughters, we opted for an unknown brand at a mattress store: big mistake. A second replacement for our own king size bed was a well known, well advertised luxury brand a friend had raved about. Another mistake. Well, at least I learned from my mistakes. With our nest empty, we needed a mattress for our guest room. We did our shopping correctly this time. Went to a high end department store, tested out all the mattress within our price range (and I do mean tested...by taking off our shoes and lying down), We chose a Stearns and Foster "Tropical Oasis: Saba Wind." Success. Happiness. Everyone who slept on the mattress commented on how comfortable it was. Fast forward to several months ago. My husband complained. Our "luxury" was way past its expiration date. He was falling into some kind of invisible hole he told me. I made an instant decision. I called Stearns & Foster and asked for the current iteration of our "Saba Wind." The very nice young woman who answered told me the Lux Estate Pillow Top Medium would be the updated version. I drove to a nearby store that had this exact model on the floor. Yes! Beautifully comfortable. Incredible support. Perfect. Firm yet not too firm. A pillow top with provided just the right amount of "give." We're thrilled. We made the right decision. We've lived and learned. The "bargain" mattresses were a waste of money. The famous brand earned no fame from us. It simply didn't hold up over time. We're back with Stearns & Foster, where we started out. And we're happy!

This is my first time to own such a luxurious mattress!! My husband and I both have been sleeping so much better. We ordered the medium tight top Lux estate and I am still in awe at how incredibly well made it is. It feels like sinking into a cloud at the end of a very long day!!!

Finally found a mattress that does exactly as it advertises. My husband & I both suffer from shoulder & neck pain. We've struggled to get that perfect mattress without success. Well that's over !! So comfortable, slept like babies & woke up pain free. So happy we made this purchase. And delivery was quicker than estimated.

After being recommended this mattress through an in-store evaluation machine, I ended up purchasing it online instead. I’m so glad I did. It’s incredibly comfortable, and the biggest difference is that I no longer wake up sore. Supportive without feeling too firm (or too soft),and it’s made a noticeable improvement in how I feel in the mornings.

Such an expensive purchase and buying mattress topper to try to make it more comfortable. My model type is not listed but I am quite surprised it doesn't have smooth consistent support. I expected so much more from the product as it is my previous Stearns mattress was far superior.

We recently went to a friends house and we were fortunate enough to sleep on this mattress. I was experiencing severe pain in my L5 S1 vertebrae. The night that I slept on this mattress for the first time in a long time, I actually got a good nights rest. The following week when we were home, we opted to buy this mattress as it had proved to be a mattress that I could actually sleep on and rest on without having pain in my lower back.

I have back and neck issues and comfort has been really hard to find. We have bought several mattresses the past few years and so far this has been the best mattress for me by far!! I love that it hasn’t sagged and I am sleeping through the night not waking up in the mornings in pain.

The mattress is a dream to sleep in and holds up very nicely to make a very sleep inducing but firm holding experience for my back and body. The mattress with the topper is a little thicker and sits higher than I imagined it would, but for the sleep I'm having I do no mind.

My husband is 6'4" has back issues, we were visiting friends and slept over. He woke up the next day asking what kind of bed they had? Stearns and fosters is what they said. The next week we went and bought one. We bought this same mattress over 15yrs ago. Over the years moving we folded the mattress, which is a no no, but this girl stuck with us, the last two yrs, she needed to be gone, so we decided it was time. We ordered a brand new one and had to get the same one, because we know just how wonderful this mattress is. Worth every penny, and you will get your best sleep ever! Will never buy any other kind to sleep on.

I am a 6'2", 220 lb sleeper. My wife is a bit shorter a lighter. I'm a back and side sleeper. She is a side sleeper. If I don't have good back support, my low back will not like it. If the top is too hard, my wife's shoulders and hips will be heard about. We have never had a king size bed. OMG. And the mattress makes us both very happy. We do have to spin the mattress every 1-2 months (we have owned it about 3-4 mos now so maybe did it twice, just to mix up the pillow top a bit. I have to emphasize, my wife is picky, she is very happy.
