I I want to buy a new Queen hybrid mattress and after much searching, online research and going to stores( Springfiled IL) to see what feels good I am deciding between two options. Which one is the better value and what is a good price point for mattresses of this build quality? Other option I should consider They both say I need to buy their base (box springs) for the full warranty

Assuming you are within a normal BMI, and cross referencing these specifications with our Mattress Durability Guidelines, I would say that these mattresses are relatively similar in terms of durability.
Both have layers that skate just above our minimum recommendation of 1.5 lb density for polyfoam, but both also have high density components lending themselves to the useful life of a mattress as well.
I can’t really tell you which is the better value, as this already gray area becomes more gray when proprietary foams are involved. And, of course, value in and of itself can be somewhat subjective depending on what different people look for and enjoy in a mattress. I would say, though, that this price point is fairly competitive and if you look at a similar build from one of our Trusted Members is in that same ballpark of price when including a base. Another option you might wish to look into is this one.
Also (and you’ll see me say this to just about everyone) it is important to have a detailed conversation with whomever you choose to purchase from and provide them with your stats, body type, sleeping styles, general preferences and history, some general information about your current mattress, or what you have tested, and any other specific information or circumstances that could affect your choice of a mattress so they can help you choose which may be your best fit from their inventory.
