My husband and I purchased the most expensive mattress of our lives because we believe that it is worth it. We had owned Stearns and Foster in the past, and have been happy with them. Let me disclose that we are both in our upper 70's. The first problem we experienced was that the mattress is super heavy. It took both of us to make the bed. Secondly, the pillow top shifted almost immediately. Within 3 months, we were both sleeping in a hole. When the bed was made up, two body holes and a mound in the middle showed through the bedspread. The company from whom we purchased mattress, sent a representative out to measure and advise us what to do. The "fix" for the shift in the pillow top, was to walk on the bed to shift the top. Keep in mind, we are in our seventies. That wasn't a great solution for us. So we continue to sleep in our holes and if we move to the middle, we are literally sleeping on an angle. We honestly believe that the foundation under the pillow top is solid and of good value. If you are young and not afraid of breaking a hip, and still have a good back to lift 200 pounds to make up the bed, go for it. If you are older, be advised, it might not be the best bed for you!

On 09/10/22 I purchased a Sterns & Foster "handcrafted" Lux Estate Hybrid Pollock King size mattress. I purchased the expensive mattress because it's promoted as premium brand with a "sleep worry-free for a decade" 10-year warranty. I also liked the 90-day sleep trial as I have a back injury and needed to make sure my back could tolerate the new mattress. Turns out I loved it. I loved it so much I convinced my parents to buy one of their own. Fast forward to 04/10/23. (Just a little over 6 months later.) The work that the "master craftsmen" did to stitch the mattress cover was coming apart. I filed a warranty claim and was emailed a response that tells me physical abuse and damage including cuts and tears to fabric aren't covered. First off, the mattress wasn't abused, and it wasn't a cut or a tear - the stitching was coming apart at the seam in multiple areas. When I called customer service at (800)697-3249 I was told there's nothing that could be done and was refused transfer to a manager because "the decision had already been made". This is not the answer I expect from a representative of a high-end product. Honestly that's the worst answer a customer service representative can tell someone who is having problems with any product. I purchased this mattress based on the reputation of Sterns & Foster. I told the rep that I was considering finding every single website I can that advertises this mattress to leave negative reviews because the Sterns & Foster website specifically sells this product with the marketing that it is "stitched to perfection". He told me if that's what I feel like I should do - then I should do it. I let him know that I would contact the corporate office first and give Sealy another chance to resolve this concern with my mattress. I'm really surprised that Sealy would treat customers in this manner. I took a chance buying an expensive mattress because I believed that premium products are better made and I also believed that I wouldn't have any issues, now that I do it's quite disappointing. Worse than disappointing, the marketing is deceiving when the website says that the 10-year limited warranty covers "all parts of the mattress". Fast forward and I feel like I am becoming The Princess and the Pea. After writing a letter & complaining directly to the corporate office my issue was sent to the warranty escalations team who authorized replacing the mattress. On May 18, 2023 a new king size Sterns & Foster mattress was delivered to my home and the other taken away. From the first night I could tell that the new mattress did not compare to the old one in any way. I wanted to give it a little time to see if my partner also felt the same way. I checked the website and realized that the Lux Hybrid doesn't even come in the Pollack or in cushion firm anymore - just soft, medium, and firm. I never received any sort of receipt or invoice from Sterns & Foster telling me what my replacement is, but the sleep quality is nowhere near what I was used to on the previous mattress. I absolutely LOVED the first mattress and If I had ANY idea that I would be sent a completely different replacement I would have sewed the stitching that was coming apart myself rather than send it back! After reviewing the website lately, I find the new Lux Hybrid mattresses don't have the row of microcoils that the first did when I ordered it last November and I believe this is the reason it feels so different to me - because it is made fundamentally different now. I am really surprised that the warranty escalations team would not warn me of the changes to the models before offering to replace the other. I feel like I am stuck between a rock and a hard place as the delivery personnel told me that the mattress they took away would be shredded. What a waste! Other than the stitching issue it was a perfectly good mattress and one that I would much rather have than the new one that Sealy sent. And it's not just that the replacement mattress is firmer; I can feel every time my partner moves, and its hotter - I have to kick the covers off at night when I am overheating. The other one simply had a stitching issue. Now Sealy has told me there's nothing else they will do as they claim the replacement mattress sent was identical to the first. What a cheap rip-off. I even purchased a new queen-sized Sterns & Foster mattress for my guest bedroom when Sealy stepped up and said they would replace the first. I wish I would've waited, I now believe Sealy has no intention of treating their customers right.

Im 5'8 140 skinny and on the boney side. There website is misleading. If you ask the sales or "experts as they call it lol. They say its the softest but i disagree. If your under 150 its a bit over kill with all these extra coils which still gives you a stiff and hard feeling. If your under 150 its going to be hard to break in i had to keep walking on mine 10- 20mins a day. To finally loosen it up. I still wake up with shoulder and arm pains do the stiffness and lack of conforming. . Also the buttons are annoying and feels like rocks /pebbles if your laying on one.. should put something over them. theyll tell you to use a pad or topper. Which didnt help and is ridiculous because you spend lots of money to avoid this. The luxe hybrid soft feels much more softer and better conforming. A Hybrid will always feel softer im not sure why they push this one as the softest. I say because most expensive and they get bigger commission off it as well as company profits more. Sad its all about money and not the customer anymore. If your heavier than 150 and like a firm soft , and can deal with the buttons. this may be the one for you. If your lightweight like me i try the soft hybrid. Also choose different stores . My stores the displays are not properly supported and they sag. No center support and you can see them bending. Shop around theres better price mattresses that will do the same. Do your research look on redit , quora, and other community personal opinions. People who actually own and want to help. All these reviews say the same thing. There paid for it and get the mattresses for free. Of course there going say good things.

We had our mattress delivered today so have not slept on it yet. The buying experience was excellent. James Foreman was our Outfitter and he took as much time as we needed to test each mattress and find the one that was best for our sleep needs. He explained the pros and cons of each mattress and also explained their mattress recycling program as well as their delivery experience. By the time we left the store, we were confident that we could make a decision and be happy with our mattress. The next day, I placed the order with Steve, the manager, who also explained the delivery and mattress pickup process. Our mattress came on time and was quickly taken upstairs and installed along with the box springs we bought. We used our current metal frame and the mattress and box springs fit perfectly. All in all, we had an excellent experience with Mattress Outfitters and I will recommend them to friends and family. Thanks, James and Steve, we appreciate your knowledge and professionalism.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mattress surprised me so much! I was scared when I sat on it how much it sinks in and it is definitely the softest mattress I've ever owned, but my sleep was amazing! It is so soft and you sink in quite a bit and as a side sleeper I thought it might not be comfortable all night. Instead of not being comfortable I had one of the most restful sleeps ever. Even my Oura ring next morning showed me that my sleep was excellent and that there was barely any movement all night.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This MATTRESS is better than we could have imagined. It is ultra plus and is 16 inches thick which requires deep pocket sheets which is no big deal at all. When someone else is in the bed, you can barely feel their movements. My sleep has been so amazing and my aches and pains are no longer a problem. Thinking of replacing all of our mattresses with this brand!

We purchased the split king Reserve medium tight top after reading about it and seeing it in a mattress store. We were so excited about getting this very expensive new mattress. In less than 30 days both mattresses began to dip in the middle. My husband said he felt like he was about to roll off the bed. My back hurts so bad that I have to get up every 2-3 hours. The mattresses slides everyday and leaves a large gap in the center so we have to push it back together. The base is tied together and doesn't move. I am so disappointed. We spoke with the company where we purchased the mattress and frame and we will have to pay $250 to return the mattress. There would not be a charge if we exchanged it for another bed just like what we have but I have lost my trust in this brand. I am not sure if it would have been a better mattress if it had been a king rather than a split king. The mattress is approximately 49 days old and has been a big disappointment to us.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mattress is sooo comfortable that I'm finally sleeping thru the night. Our mattress was ready to be replaced and this one came at perfect timing. First time hearing about the brand and I have to say I can't wait to change all of our mattresses for this ones. They are really good made and they offer a great support which was super important to avoid having back pain in the mornings.

Mattress was great for 1 month until suddenly a 6 inch deep by 3 foot long hole appeared in the center of the mattress. It's unusable now. I have tried every phone number and customer support email on the website dozens of times, no response. You can't talk to anyone. It's supposed to have a 10 year warranty. Bought from a large furniture store but they special ordered this mattress, not a Stearns and Foster dealer, so they won't help at all. Worst customer service ever. I'm ready to drive the mattress 12 hours to the factory and return it in person. I'm hoping to get a response from this review as nothing else works.

This is my second strains and foster pillow top mattress. I will never buy any other type of mattress. It is the best and most comfortable mattress I've had ever had. Thank you for making such a great product
