Q: Hi, I am a small female who has allergies, asthma, and extreme sensitivity to pressure point on hips. Can you recommend several mattresses that won't break the bank? I've seen the Simmons ComforPedic new technology memory foam- nice but would require a second mortgage :) Thanks!!
A: The ComforPedic Loft lineup costs less than the ComforPedic Advanced. If the Loft lineup is still too high for your budget, you may want to consider our Simmons Beautyrest Gordonston Plush Pillowtop.

The Simmons ComforPedic Advanced Memory Foam mattresses are the finest quality and one of the best values on the market today. I put together a mattress comparison between the Simmons ComforPedic Southampton Plush and TempurPedic Cloud Supreme. The ComforPedic has superior quality in the comfort layers (top of the mattress) and the support layers (below the comfort layers). The comfort layers have "Next Generation" (or NXG) memory foam which dissipates heat and has no "break-in" period. The ComforPedic mattress feels the same in your bedroom as in the showroom floor. In addition, it will feel the same at year 10 as it did on Day 1. The Next Generation memory foam is quicker to respond to your movement when in bed. This makes it much more comfortable than regular memory foam. The support layers in the ComforPedic Advanced models are far superior also. The foam core (with Transflexion Comfort Technology) is precompressed so it will not settle over the years. This keeps the mattress from having body imprints down the road.

Robert of Elizabeth City, NC asked: What materials do I want in a new mattress?
Robert,
There are many comfort layers or materials used to construct a mattress. Some are used for the quilting that holds everything together and some are used to alter the feel of a mattress. Most new mattresses constructed by Sealy, Stearns and Foster, and Simmons Beautyrest use either latex or memory foams to provide a long lasting sleep surface that withstands years of use. We only sell these high quality brands!
Each manufacturer has their own formulas and criteria unique to their company. Of the two most widely used materials latex allows you to sleep on top of the mattress while memory foam lets you sink into the mattress slightly and cradles you somewhat. Using these two quality materials or a combination of the two manufacturers have found a way of providing a wide range of comfort levels. Be sure to try both latex and memory foams before making a final decision. My only other advice on the matter is to consider how long you expect to keep your mattress, the coil system and the cost involved.
Thanks for the question,
Jeff
