Q: What is comparable to the black edaline that is no longer available?
- Tess
A: The equivalent model in today's line up is the Olivia Plush model on our website at http://sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=840  The Olivia Plush also has a Plush Firm option as well which will feel firmer and less yielding.  If you like a firmer emphasis to sleep on, the Plush Firm is a great option.  Otherwise the Olivia Plush is the closest in feel and overall construction.  Here are links to both below:

Olivia Plush Firm - http://sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=839

Q: does the use of a box spring really make a differenc in comfort
- M. Hikes
A: It really does make a difference.  Non-Flip mattresses use what are reffered to as Foundations.  Though they are still reffered to as Box Springs, there is a significant difference between Foundations and Box Springs.  Foundations are firm, non-yeilding platforms while Box Springs are flexible.  Putting a Simmons Beautyrest, Simmons Comfor-Pedic, or Tempur-Pedic on Box Springs will make the mattress feel significantly softer and potentially sag prematurely in spots.  Putting a Simmons Beautyrest, Simmons Comfor-Pedic, or Tempur-Pedic on Foundations will ensure the mattress feels the same as it did in the showroom and give the mattress the ability to provide the correct amount of support as well.  If you're trying to re-use old box springs under a newer non-flip model, we strongly recommend replacing the box spring with a foundation.  If your box spring/foundation is only a few years old and is flat, firm, and non-yielding, then it would be okay to re-use underneath current models.  Thanks for your question!

Q: Hi, I stayed at the Mandarin oriental Hotel in washing ton DC and loved the mattress!! I called house keeping and they said it was a Felcity Pillow top bed. How much is a queen bed in this model? Is there a comparable model that you sell in stores? Will it feel just like the one in the hotel? My back and hips didn\'t hurt sleeping on this mattress!! Thx for your help. Pam
- Pam Sharp
A: Thanks for your question.  This will be posted today for you to see on our website as well. 

The Felicity model is featured at many hotels/resorts nationwide and we get many inquiries for the same mattress.  The model in our line up that is a near equivalent is called the Simmons Beautyrest World Class Ellsworth Pillow Top on our website at http://sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=883  The detailed foam layer information is a close match to the following specs of the Felicity II mattress:

Beautyrest® World Class® Felicity II Pillow Top:

Mattress Height:                14"

Quilting:                            1.2 oz. FR Fiber
                                                      3/4" Firm Purfoam, 1 1/2" Convoluted Foam

Upholstery:                        1" Convoluted Foam
Deck:                                1" Convoluted Foam

Coil Unit:                            Beautyrest® 980 Density Pocketed Coil® Springs
                                                  with 360° Foam Encased Edge Support

Coil Support:                        1" Bloc Foam

Foundation:                        TritonT Power - beam foundation. Available in
                                                   8.75" or 5.5" heights (Tapeless Euro-tailoring)

These mattresses are within a 1/4" of foam apart as far as equivalency.  If you slept great on the Felicity, we gaurentee that this model is the same soft yet supportive feel of a World Class Beautyrest model.  Take a look and let me know if you have any additional questions.

Q: What is the firmest mattress on the market? We are used to a custom made mattress that is hard as a rock and we are looking for one that is similar. No pillow tops - too soft. Are you familiar with King Koil Mattresses?
- J Row
A: Thanks for your question.  We have three recommendations that we think are right up your alley.  Here they are listed below:

Simmons Beautyrest NxG 100 Firm - http://www.sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=729
Simmons Beautyrest Exceptionale Harare Extra Firm - http://sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=685
Simmons Beautyrest World Class Lusaka Extrar Firm - http://sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=670

The NxG 100 model is the firmest that we carry.  There is hardly any foam for comfort and the top of the mattress is flat.  The foam that it does have is NxG Visco Memory foam which is dense and has a firm tendancy.  The second firmest we carry is the Exceptionale Beautyrests with a 2 layered coil system.  Then the third is a World Class Firm model.  If you like, let me know your zip code and I'll see if there are local dealers who carry these beds.

Q: I would like to know if this mattress is the same one sold at Macys
- Arlene O.
A: Hi Arlene,

Thanks for your question.  The Beautyrest Black line mattresses all have the same name nationwide.  Unlike other Beautyrests that change from store to store, the Beautyrest Black models have the same name and same construction from retailer to retailer.  You will want to check to make sure the model you tried was either a Plush or Plush Firm since there are two Olivia models to choose from.  But matched up correctly, it will be the same exact mattress.
- Greg and Katy Law www.SDMattress.com 866-799-0048
Q: Thanks for answering in advance.  We stayed at a Hyatt resort and the mattress had a label on it Felicity II.  We really liked the mattress and want to get it to replace our worn out bed.  Do you have this mattress or something like it?  What kind of price would it be for a king size delivered to Seattle?  J
- Jay Frieder
A: Hi Jay,  We have many inquiries for the Felicity mattresses featured in hotels.  The Felicity II model you tried has the following specs:

Beautyrest® World Class® Felicity II Pillow Top:

Mattress Height:                14"

Quilting:                            1.2 oz. FR Fiber
                                        3/4" Firm Purfoam, 1 1/2" Convoluted Foam

Upholstery:                        1" Convoluted Foam
Deck:                                1" Convoluted Foam

Coil Unit:                            Beautyrest® 980 Density Pocketed Coil® Springs
                                                  with 360° Foam Encased Edge Support

Coil Support:                        1" Bloc Foam

Foundation:                        Triton™ Power – beam foundation. Available in
                                                   9" or 5" heights

The Closest match to this mattress on our website is called the World Class Ellsworth Plush Pillow Top at http://sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=883.  The Ellsworth Plush Pillow Top is available for $1,299 King set, price includes delivery, installation, and no sales tax(except in NC and CA).  Check it out and call us toll free at 866-799-0048 if you have any questions.  Thanks for taking the time to ask!

Q: Looking for a pillow top that is resistent to body impressions. Loved the Simmons Beautyrest Black Fantasia Pillow Top at a local store, but the price was out of my budget. They claimed that due to the type of foam they use in the pillow top, I won't have to worry about sags. Do you carry this model? If so, what is your advice and price on this model or some similar that would have the pillow top feel but wont have to be replaced every couple years due to indentations? Also, I live in TX do you deliver here? Thank you for your very informative site! Bob
- Bob Seifort
A: Hi Bob,  Thanks for your question!  We have great information for you.  When it comes to Pillow Top models that are resistant to body impressions, keep an eye out for NxG Visco memory foam.  Mattress built exclusively with NxG Visco memory foam are proven to be long lasting.  NxG models originates from Comfor-Pedic models which have zero consumer blogs about models impressing quickly once brought home.  This has also been the case with our local customers as well.  We have been selling Comfor-Pedic models for almost 3 years and have yet to make a warranty check/exchange on any of them.  With that info out there, the Fantasia is going to have resistance to body impressions over time because it features some NxG foam along with Talalay latex and transflection foams.  Instead of using regular poly foams, the Beautyrest Black Fantasia has higher quality, longer lasting specialty foams.  If you would like to compare the Fantasia to the equivalent model in our line up, see our Beautyrest Black Alissane at http://sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=846.  We do deliver to Texas and offer the Beautyrest Black Alissane for $2,545 Queen set, $2,995 King set, prices include shipping, delivery, installation, and no sales tax.  Call us toll free at 866-799-0048 for alternate shipping options or if you have any more questions.

Q: I recently purchased a Simmons BR World Classic "ellsworth plush firm". I am a side sleeper. I wake every morning with a backache. The store will not accept a return or a credit. Any suggestions would be helpful. the mattress felt really good in the store and seemed really nice and good quality. Not too firm not too soft. Thank you.
- Pam
A: Hi Pam,  The Ellsworth Plush Firm model is a great quality mattress.  As far as side sleeping goes, it\'s not the most comfortable unless you know the firmer support is what works.  We usually recommend Plush models for side sleeping instead of the Plush Firms because the Plush gives under hips and shoulders more.  This allows the coils system to conform to the natural shape of your body, filling in the lumbar area with support.  When the coil system is too firm, like in a Plush Firm, the hips, lumbar and shoulders are all sleeping on the same flat surface with no conformity.  The mattress isn\'t defective, it\'s doing exactly what it was built to do.  Provide firm support with a few comfort foam layers on top.  To help alleviate your sleep problem, we recommend a 2" layer of visco memory foam or a 2" layer of latex foam to go on top of your mattress.  This will help increase comfort and conformity so you can sleep easier on your side.  You can also try back or stomach sleeping on the mattress how it is which would be a more comfortable way to sleep on a firmer mattress.  If you are interested in a new Beautyrest model since you cannot replace the one you have purchased, we recommend these two Beautyrest on our website based on your feedback of the Ellsworth Plush Firm:

Simmons Classic Beautyrest Dakar Plush: http://sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=666
Simmons World Class Ellsworth Plush:http://sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=885

Both of these models will be noticeably softer because they feature the luxury pocketed coil and not the firm one.  The Classic is softer than the World Class because the coils aren\'t packed in quite so tight.  Both are great options for side sleeping comfortably yet not having a thick pillow top.  Take a look and let us know if there is anything else we can do to help.

Q: I stayed at a Doubletree in Burlington, VT, two years ago and loved their mattress. Their website says it is a "Sweet Dreams." A couple of questions: 1) Is a mattress I can buy retail the same quality as one sold commercially and 2) where can I "test drive" one in San Diego? Thanks
- Gretchen Pena
A: Hi Gretchen,  The Double Tree hotels feature the Sweet Dreams mattress by Serta.  We don't carry the Serta model but there is a Simmons Beautyrest model that has a similar make up and comfort level to the Sweet Dreams bed.  The Simmons we recommend is called the Beautyrest Classic Dakar Pillow Top on our website at http://sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=642.  The Dakar and the Sweet Dreams bed are both medium soft/medium firm mattresses with a slight emphasis on comfort.  Side sleepers love these mattresses because they can sleep for long periods on one side comfortably and get really great support.  If you like, let us know your zip code and we can point you to a local retailer who has the same model to try.  Thanks for your question!

Q: Hey there, I was shopping at Mattress Firm this weekend and we liked their Beautyrest Black Fantasia model.  I went to your website looking for the same model but couldn't find it.  From reading your posts, it says the Black Line models should all have the same names.  Is this one you carry or is it just available at Mattress Firm?  If you have it, what is the price shipped to Georgia??  Thanks! G
- Greg D.
A: Hi Greg,

Thanks for your question.  We did some research and it looks like Mattress Firm has a Black Line model with their own name.  They are a large retailer and have an exclusive mattress name just for them, but the actual model is equivalent to the Beautyrest Black Alisane model on our website at http://sdmattress.com/store/index.php?prodid=846.  Both the Beautyrest Black Fantasia and Alissane have the same alternating cable coil system and same foam layers, including a layer of talalay latex and a layer of NxG Visco memory foam in the upholstery.  Our model is on sale queen size for $2,545, King set for $2,995, Prices include delivery, installation, and no sales tax.  Call us toll free at 866-799-0048 if you would like to hear any alternate shipping options or would like to place an order.  Thanks again for your e-mail!
