I have wanted a Sterns and Foster Mattress for many years. Being on a fixed income, I had to save a little bit here and there, which took me a few years to save enough for my dream mattress. This mattress is like sleeping on a cloud. I have back problems; the firmness is just enough to be able to sleep without pain waking me up in the middle of the night. I get up in the morning and do not have aches and pains in my shoulders or back, which is a blessing within itself. I am yet to find anything about this mattress to complain about.

I wish I knew how heavy this mattress was going to be, we have a difficult time tucking in the sheets and blanket. Our old mattress did not sag in the middle, I have to work myself to the side with this one. I also wake up in the middle of the night now since we bought this mattress with pain in my hands, I've tried changing pillows but it doesn't make a difference. Turning the mattress is a real chore. I did not read reviews before buying.

I wish I could send a picture to show how bad blue cheap material looks just after a few months of regular use. It looks awful! My old twenty years old mattress looked better when I decided to replace it! It looks bad like an old cheap pullover and they call it “ lux” ? Don ‘t be fooled by how pretty it looks in the store. Buy a different brand with real quality material that lasts for years.

I’ve been extremely pleased with our Sterns & Foster’s mattresses and white glove delivery service. We purchased our second mattress from S & F and relocated our first to the guest bedroom after 13 years. Do to my up coming Lumbar Spine Surgery I wanted a new firm comfortable mattress to rely on during recovery. Luxe Estate firm works best for me. We figured we spend a third of our life’s in bed so better get the best.

From the perspective of someone with chronic lumbar back issues After years of wrestling with lower‑back pain and waking up feeling like I’d slept on a crooked park bench, I finally decided to invest in the Stearns & Foster Estate Firm mattress. I went into it cautiously—firm mattresses can be hit or miss when you have lumbar problems—but after several weeks of sleeping on it, I’m genuinely impressed. Comfort & Support The standout feature is the lumbar support. The mattress has a firm, stable surface that doesn’t sag or let your hips sink too deeply, which is crucial for keeping the spine aligned. I noticed within the first few nights that I wasn’t waking up with that familiar tightness in my lower back. The support feels intentional rather than just “hard,” which is a big difference. Pressure Relief Even though it’s firm, it isn’t rigid. The top layers have enough cushioning to relieve pressure around the hips and shoulders without compromising the support underneath. For someone who alternates between back and side sleeping, this balance matters more than I realized. Build Quality Stearns & Foster is known for craftsmanship, and it shows. The mattress feels substantial and well‑constructed, with no edge collapse when sitting or lying near the sides. It has that luxury‑hotel sturdiness that makes you feel like it’s going to last. Temperature I tend to sleep warm, and this mattress has stayed comfortably neutral. No overheating, no waking up sweaty—just a consistent, cool sleep surface. Overall Experience For the first time in a long time, I’m waking up without that dull lumbar ache. The Estate Firm strikes a sweet spot: supportive enough to keep my spine aligned, but cushioned enough to feel comfortable rather than punishing. If you have lower‑back issues and prefer a firm, stable sleep surface, this mattress is absolutely worth considering.

If you’re wanting a firm feel without sacrificing comfort, this California King Estate Collection Firm Pillow Top Mattress delivers exactly that. The pillow-top layer adds just enough plushness to soften the initial feel while the firm support core keeps my spine aligned night after night. I noticed less back stiffness and pain in the mornings and the roomy California King size is ideal if you just love extra space. You're buying top quality when you purchase a Stearns & Foster mattress. I don't like the fact that the mattress is really high. I need to use a little stool to get help me climb into bed at night.

My Stearns and Foster PT soft is pure comfort that removes the day's stress from my body, and makes me happy that I found such a high quality mattress. Starting on the first night's sleep I felt my pain easing, and by the end of the week, was back to myself again and very grateful for my Stearns and Foster Pillowtop soft. I walked into a store showroom in a lot of pain (shoulder, neck, and back) caused by another manufacturer's mattress over the past eight months being told it "was part of the adjustment period". I've never even developed this kind of pain from being active at the gym lifting weights, swimming, and biking. Last month I went into a furniture store looking to replace this other mattress, but lacking confidence that I could find it. I'm thankful for the saleswoman who encouraged me to expand my options and consider the Stearns and Foster mattresses. My immediate reaction was, "my friend's mom has one and it's a super-expensive high quality mattress that's out of my price point". I was pleasantly surprised that the Estate mattress was in my price point. The quality was immediately evident. I'm super grateful for Stearns and Foster making such a high quality product that has restored my well-being! My future mattress purchases will always be Stearns and Foster, and I'm sharing this information with family and friends to help them as well! Thank you so much to being committed to good health and quality, Stearns and Foster!

Overall I find this mattress to be great quality. My only complaint after about a month is that I'm still feeling pressure points while sleeping on my back in the coccyx area. Yes, I roll on my side for relief so maybe I'm expecting too much. I am currently giving it 4 stars only because of what I mentioned. Once it's broken in maybe my opinion will change.

Finally, a mattress that I can sleep all night on. My back felt better from the first night. The pattern on the top of the mattress feels so wonderful on my back.This is our second Stearns and foster mattress, and we will never buy a different brand. California.

Our mattress is only 2-3 years old and it has utterly failed. I am 160 lbs at 6’ and I sink halfway below the edge of the mattress, my SO is short and petite. We keep our mattress clean, protected and constantly rotate. This is not a firm mattress. By ANY measure. But I am stuck with it because it is not collapsed, S&F has so cleverly hid behind the “Comfort Preference” of their sham of a warranty. Almost 3k down the drain for nothing. I am so beyond frustrated and annoyed that this is the situation I have been put in that I am seriously considering civil options.
