Hi Delta2,

[edit] I think I’m just going to get the Springwall mattress from TMASC in Edmonton. I have just re-read Phoenix’s No. 1 rule in finding value in a mattress, and of course you all know it is to avoid the big ‘S’ manufacturers if you’re looking for value. Maybe Springwall is a ‘major’ manufacturer, but they’re certainly not on the top 15 list.

I have talked with Springwall and I was impressed with their transparency (see post #4 here).

It’s somewhat rare to see a good pocket coil in that price range and while I don’t know the density of the foams they use it appears to be good value. Of course I also think very highly of TMASC and their knowledge of the mattresses and bedding they sell which is one of the reasons (along with their great service) they are a member here.

The pocket coil is zoned with 13.5 gauge in the center and 14.5 gauge on the upper and lower parts of the mattress. The pocket coils would be doing much of the contouring to your body and with only a relatively small amount of foam above the coils there isn’t a lot of foam to soften and impress over time so there is no obvious weak link in the mattress and it would be a good choice in your budget range for those who prefer a mattress with a firmer feel.
