Hi.
I have reviewed a lot of your information on your mattressundergorund.com website and it has been very helpful.
Meantime, we recently tested the Springwall Seaside Plush Euro Pillow-Top Queen Mattress and Boxspring Set - specs provided further below - among quite a few others, including memory foam These are the only specs that were available at the retail level. The bed is “on sale” for $719, which is advertised to be app. 50% of the “regular retail” price.
After laying on this bed for app. 15 minutes, we found it to be quite comfortable,and despite the pillow-top, we felt firm support… I should note that we felt a little more support in a similar bed without the pillow-top, but didn’t notice a huge difference. We tested a number of “firm” beds from leading and other manufacturer’s lines, including memory foam.
YOUR INPUT: Based on the info provided below (from the retailer), is there additional information/specs you would suggest we request? Do you have a general opinion about this bed and its specs, based on the info provided here?
Note:
My wife and I are app 60, average weight and height respectively.
We both prefer a firm bed.
We sleep on our backs and our sides......lately my wife sleeps more on her left side more, due to a re-occurring lower back nerve pain (which she feels more in the centre of her back) which can be intense from time to time. She does not plan to have surgery for it. In our current, older mattress, she feels quite a bit of lower back discomfort when she lies on her back; this tends to ease between 4 and 6 am.
My back also seems to feel much better on a firm mattress.
My wife has allergies to many things, including dust, dust mites, pet dander,spring and fall pollen, etc.
I may have mild asthma (my family doctor and respirologist disagree on this point)
Please see mattress info below, as shown on the retailer’s website. (Note: I contacted Spring wall for additional information, which I added after the info below).
Thanks.
Steve

ADDITIONAL INFO DIRECTLY FROM SPRINGWALL (Our questions are shown in bold type)
Do we use Polyurethane in our foam?
Yes, all foam has polyurethane in it. It is an oil based chemical that is used to make foam.
How are the layers of foam connected to each other in the mattress? Is there off-gasing?
The layers are connected with a water based glue. There is no off-gasing.
Do we use synthetic latex?
The type of latex that we use is from Malaysia and is from a rubber tree mixed with synthetic latex. We have the highest degree of craftsmanship and purity when making our latex foam. The standard latex combination in most mattresses is a natural/synthetic blend. If it was all natural, it would break down quickly; the synthetic latex gives the foam durability.
How many connecting links are inside of the mattress?
As I said on the phone, since it is a Pocket Coil mattress; all of coils are individual and none are connected. There is a fabric encasement that keeps these coils in place.
How is the edge of the mattress and foundation (box spring) made?
The foundation consists of metal and wood. There is nothing else that is inside it or anything else that creates the edge.
The edge of the mattress is made from high grade foam encasement baked to be extremely firm.
