Hi Phoenix,
I went to SAMs today and I really liked this mattress
I know that it’s Serta but I still want to get your opinion on this. The price
is just right $529+tax.
I am about to pull the trigger on this one so pls share your thoughts.
If it lasts for 4 + years I ll be happy.
Hi mattressseeker,
If you can list the specs of the materials and components in the mattress (see this article) I’d certainly be happy to share my thoughts about the quality/durability of the materials or help you identify any potential weak links in the design.
Without this information there is really no way for me to make any meaningful comments about any mattress and you would be making a “blind purchase” with all the risks that are involved in buying a mattress where the quality and durability of the materials are unknown and probably low.
It’s certainly not a risk that I would take … especially if you are hoping the mattress will last you for 4+ years when even their better quality mattresses in much higher price ranges don’t maintain their comfort and support for many people for that long.

Phoenix,
Here are the specs:
New for 2014, the Perfect Sleeper® Valleybrook Cushion Firm Eurotop combines the support of Serta’s continuous coil innerspring, surrounded by foam encased edge support, and that just right cushion firm feel. It has an additional upholstery layer at the top of the mattress, but offers a firmer feel than a traditional pillow top model.
Featuring Serta’s exclusive Cool Twist™ Gel Memory Foam, liquid gel-enhanced memory foam designed for significantly increased airflow, which helps promote a balanced sleeping temperature.
This all new model features Serta’s Continuous Support® Innerspring with Total Edge® Foam Encasement, which combines Serta’s continuous coil design with Head-to-Toe Coil Construction to promote proper back support and undisturbed sleep. Rows of continuous coils made from strong tempered steel work to provide superior support along the entire length of the body through the night.
Finally, the Valleybrook Cushion Firm Eurotop model features Serta’s Cool Balance® Fabric, designed to promote a balanced sleeping temperature by helping to regulate the flow of heat and moisture away from the body. This allows our soft, breathable fabric to help reduce uncomfortable heat buildup.

Hi mattressseeker,
Unfortunately there aren’t any specs about the materials in the descriptions you listed. The information and specifications you need to make any meaningful assessment of a mattress are in the article I linked in my last reply.
