I ended up buying the  Sleep EZ 360 Hybrid. I have been sleeping on it for a week and it is very comfortable. I got a split top, talalay medium/talalay firm. Have only tried out the medium for sleep but I can tell the difference between the two sides just laying on them for a bit

I have done so much reading and research my brain is fried. I thought I settled on an Awara until I read more here. 

My needs

200lb Side sleeper experiencing hip pain I think due to my old mattress

Prefer firmer mattress but not hard, not not want to feel like I am sinking in.

Need to sleep cool, have ruled out memory foam

I think I would like a latex hybrid but have not ruled out inner spring only

Would prefer a brand that has been around for at least awhile and has a good return policy

I would like to spend around $2000 but will go higher if I am convinced it is worth it.

Mattress Analysis Paralysis - Help Please

  I started with the Nest medium insert which was too soft.  I tend to overheat and because the NHL has polyfoam in the quilting and above the coils, I sink in too much.  I then replaced the insert with soft Dunlop and removed the quilting.  I have slept much better but I know I can still sink down because of the polyfoam above the coils and probably because of the coils (thank you kindly for documenting this)

Hello folks! I was troubled by the recent influx of posts about the Nest ASH sagging within 30 days of purchase. I wanted to get a Firm ASH myself, so I decided to do some digging. 

Short version: They changed the coils without updating the website to reflect this, and their sales staff (two different people) told me that the ASH uses the Legett and Platt Quantum Edge even though it (currently) does not.

I called Nest and asked what coil system was used in the ASH, and how many coils were in a queen. I was told it uses the Leggett and Platt Quantum Edge coil system and it has 816 coils. I then asked if it was the Quantum Edge with additional center 1/3 support, and was told no. I immediately new something was wrong, as I knew the Quantum Edge Queen has 789 coils, not 816.

I went to on Leggett and Platt's website and looked up the Quantum Edge. Here is the [spec sheet](https://beddingcomponents.com/document/load/quantum-edge-product-sheet.pdf).  This is confirmed in the spec sheet, which confirms 789 coils. 

I called Leggett and Platt to ask them if they had a Quantum Edge model with 816 coils and was told no. They went on to say that they do create special customized models for some vendors which are not listed on the website, and they did not know if Nest was getting a customized model, I would have to ask Nest about that. 

I called back Nest and got the same girl as earlier! I told her Leggett and Platt don't make an 816 coil system, and that I wanted to confirm the coil count and the model of the coil system used. She said she's getting "conflicting information" from her computer system, as she does see that the 789 coil Leggett and Platt is used, as well as the 816 coil unit she had told me about. She said she would get back to me via email, and I gave her my email address. 

I got an email from someone else at Nest 30 minutes later that said the following:

*Leggett and Platt have a coil shortage at the moment so we have opted to use a similar system from R&amp;S. There are a few more coils, 816 in a queen, however the gauge and design are pretty much identical. Sorry for the confusion my friend. Let me know if you have any more questions!*

There you have it. Nest changed the coil system without updating their website and their sales team still believes that the unit is created by Leggett and Platt, even though it is not. 

I have never heard of R&amp;S, and a google search didn't give me a ton of information to go off of. I found an [article from 2015](https://roselawgroupreporter.com/2015/05/phoenix-mattress-company-opens-9m-manufacturing-plant/) stating *"R&amp;S Mattress and it's online counterpart Brooklyn Bedding* are opening a 9 million dollar factory in Arizona". So it appears that R&amp;S and Brooklyn Bedding are the same company. This was further confirmed when I found the R&amp;S Mattress [twitter account](https://twitter.com/rsmattressstore?lang=en). That account lists their homepage as [rsmattress.com](www.rsmattress.com), which redirects you to the Brooklyn Beding homepage. I'm not sure when R&amp;S Mattress dropped the R&amp;S Name to become Brooklyn Bedding, but they are certainly the same company. Since the "R&amp;S" coil system is a Brooklyn Bedding coil system. This implies (but does not confirm) that the "R&amp;S" coil system being used in the nest ASH is the Ascension X coil system from the Brooklyn Bedding line of beds. 

According to Nest, nothing else in the ASH has changed except for the coil system. This implies that the recent issues people have reported with very early sagging at the coils / foam above the coils, super soft coil systems, overall lack of support, inconsistency between what they tried in the Nest Showroom and what they actually got delivered, and very noticeable motion transfer, are all tied to the R&amp;S coil unit.

Seeing as the Nest ASH was nearly universally praised, and now we only hear complaints about it, I would be cautious if purchasing this bed until we know Nest is using Leggett and Platt coil systems again, if they go back to using it at all. Nest is partnered with Brooklyn Bedding, so the R&amp;S Coil system is almost certainly cheaper than the Leggett and Platt, so I wouldn't be surprised if they stuck with the Brooklyn Bedding / R&amp;S coil system.

**Edit:**   
I could not find any information whatsoever on the Ascension X coil system. I did respond to Nest's email and asked for a spec sheet like the ones Leggett and Platt makes available. I also told them of the recent influx of negative ASH posts and asked them if they were only using R&amp;S systems, or a combination of L&amp;P and R&amp;S, and if they are using a combination, what percentage of mattresses were getting each coil system, and how can people ensure that they get a Leggett and Platt. I have not gotten a response yet but will edit this post when I do.

It is possible that they are also cheaping out on the foam layer above the coils, but they said that that layer was the same it&#39;s always been. They also said they use Leggett and Platt coils though, so who knows.

Seeing as the Nest ASH was nearly universally praised, and now we hear a lot of complaints about it, I would be cautious if purchasing this bed until we know Nest is using Leggett and Platt coil systems again, if they go back to using it at all.

I have not gotten a response yet but will edit this post when I do.

Edit 2: Got another response from Nest 
I do not have the spec sheet for the R&amp;S coil system used in the ASH, and they did not tell me if they were using both Leggett and Platt and R&amp;S or just R&amp;S, but their response does leans towards them only using R&amp;S coils. 

&quot;Legit[sic] and Platt, who makes the quantum edge coil unit, have had supply issues. [snip] I&#39;m not sure why there has been an influx in negative posts over the last 30 days, as we have been using [the R&amp;S] system for some time now&quot;

They don&#39;t give a time frame on how long they have been using R&amp;S, but it looks like it&#39;s at least a couple months, and potentially for up to 6-9 months. I recall reading about the mattress coil shortage getting really bad around September or October of last year, so the switch may have been made that long ago. Maybe it isn&#39;t just the coils causing the recent issues? Maybe they are also cheaping out on the foam layer above the coils but not saying anything about that? 

No matter how long they&#39;ve been using the R&amp;S coils, they never updated their website, and the sales staff still tell potential customers that the coil unit is Leggett and Platt&#39;s Quantum Edge. At best, this is false advertising with no malicious intent behind it. At worse, they are intentionally misleading customers with the coil unit change, and there may also be a change in the foam above the coils and below the comfort layer (but to be clear, they say there is not a change to that foam).

Edit 5/7/21 - All mentions of Leggett and Platt and Quantum Edge have been removed from Nest&#39;s webpage for the Alexander Signature Hybrid. It appears we got their attention. I still have not received the spec sheet for R&amp;S coil system, but was told it was coming soon (it sounds like they are in the process of getting one made), and it would be emailed to me. I will share it if/when I get it.

PSA - Undocumented Nest ASH Change

I tried hybrid latex, and it was not for my wife and me; those who like latex will push you in that direction. 

What made it easier for me was I sent to a nest bedding showroom, Macy's, who has Savita in the showroom living spaces showroom for leading line brands S&F.

 What we got was terrific its a dense mattress with just enough give, a little bit of a memory foam feel, but you don't feel like quicksand it doesn't sleep hot, no motion transfer, it's that right balance for us. What we found is it's critical to get an adjustable base. An adjustable base changes the dynamic when it comes to sleep. Being able to get the mattress in the proper position is fantastic

 If you have any issues replacing them is very inexpensive. We call the adjustable base company and bought spare parts; they're sitting in my garage just in case anything ever went wrong the parts are all modular Plug and Play.

Hubby and I are combo sleepers.  We tend to start to sleep on our side and end up on our backs (most likely because our current mattress makes our shoulders hurt).  We have been mattress shopping and love the Purple 4, the Aierloom Luxetop Plush, and the Tempurpedic Luxebreeze Soft - however, the thought of spending $4-6k on pieces of foam/latex/whatever that may last less than 10 years seems crazy. Is there anything out there that feels as soft and supportive without the price tag?

I’m 5’5, 180s, with lower back issues and almost constant neck/shoulder tightness
Hubby is 6’4, 230s, no major issues

The other issue is that we are looking for a California king (what we currently have and are committed to that size), so that increases the cost.  

Thanks!

Mattress Recommendations for Side Sleepers

How in the world do you choose between the EZ hybrid, 360, all organic, or Roma?

Sleep EZ Roma Mattress Review (2022) Latex Bed | Sleepopolis

The search for an innovative, premium mattress at a not-so-premium price ends here. The Cooling Copper ADAPTIVE Hybrid Mattress has been expertly developed to offer you a multitude of sleep enhancing technologies at a price that’s worth shouting from the rooftops. It all begins with a poly jacquard cover treated with ADAPTIVE technology. This remarkable fabric uses your excess body heat and moisture to trigger evaporation as you sleep, so you no longer wake up from overheating. And the cooling action doesn’t stop there. Just beneath this cover is thermoregulating copper-infused memory foam, a layer that effortlessly dispels unwanted heat. In addition to keeping you perfectly temperature-regulated, this memory foam boasts one more secret ingredient – pure and natural green tea. When paired together, copper and green tea keep your bed feeling fresh for countless nights to come. It’s all situated on top of an Independent Coil System base layer that resists motion transfer from a partner and provides cradling support of your joints and spine. And for those who like to live (and sleep) on the edge, we’ve added a perimeter layer of superior Foam Edge Support. Like all our mattresses, the Cooling Copper ADAPTIVE Mattress is expertly rolled and packed with a 10-year warranty into one convenient box that ships right to your door. And presto! This mattress proves that reasonably priced and luxurious actually do go hand in hand. Who knew?

Wirecutter

The Copper Adaptive Hybrid mixes springiness and a classic memory-foam feel to create a substantial, comfortable mattress that doesn’t come across as cheap. However, its motion isolation and edge support are just middle of the pack.

r/BuyItForLife

Just wanted to share my experience with Zinus. I bought a Queen 10" memory foam in 2017. It felt great at first and nearly cured my back pain!(I've had back surgery and a somewhat debilitating ongoing pain at times). I was pumped as this was life-changing for me at the time

However 6-9 months later the support weakened and after rotating to the other side and sleeping in the middle I found I had worn out the support in all areas of the mattress. So after about 2 years the whole mattress felt more like a hammock.

Zinus Long Term Quality/Warranty Experience

Hey guys, Martin here from Madness Clarity. If you're looking for a comfortable cooling hybrid, it's also a good value. You've come to the right video because today I'm talking about the Zenith Cooling Copper Adaptive Hybrid Mattress. I'm going to talk about its construction, my experience with it, who it's a good fit for, and who it's not a good fit for

 My hips sink in the right amount to the top memory foam layer, feeling some nice contouring. The foam presses up into my lumbar area as well. Good support from the coils in the bottom layer of the mattress. Overall very good for back sleeping

 So today we're talking about the Zenith Cooling Copper Adaptive Hybrid Mattress. That is a mouthful, but it comes from Zenith and it's part of their new spring and hybrid collection. Now, Venus is all about giving you quality mattresses for a value price. And this hybrid mattress is no different

 below that you're going to have a foam transition layer. definitely firmer, high density foam. Below that, you're going to have this foam encasement and behind that pocketed coils to add the support to the top of the mattress. Below that, it all rests on a layer of high density foam

Zinus Hybrid Mattress Review + Casper And Nectar Comparison!

I bought my Zinus green tea 12" mattress because I needed something cheap. Right out of the box, it was the most comfortable mattress I ever slept on. It supported my back so perfectly, I'd lie in bed and marvel at my magical $300 mattress. Well, one year later it started to sag, and now it's awful

 Don't bother with Zinus, your mattress could look like a hammock, they won't honor the warranty. The question..

So, many on this sub know about how Zinus mattresses are pretty ehhhh in terms of quality... especially in regards to the whole fiberglass thing.

But, I do love the way the Zinus Green Tea foam mattress feels.  I honestly haven't encountered a better one.  I tried a Purple mattress, but I hated how heavy it was to transport and it was too firm for my liking.

Anybody know a higher-quality mattress that feels a lot like the Zinus one?  Thanks.

Zinus alternative that feels like a Zinus?

 Heavy bed.  All in all - I got a great deal at onesixty for the 12 inch twin and hopefully this works for my daughter for a decade plus. Thank you Amazon for the awesome price.

12 inch twin here - very comfy - but quite soft. (medium plush if we are using mattress terms?) edge support is.. next to none

Soft - make sure you want a really soft/squishy bed - Not firm at all.

 1, buy a cheap mattress and replace it often. 2, buy a more expensive mattress and it will last long enough to pay for itself (you hope).

I will say, however, that my mattress for the last 3+ years has been a $350 Zinus and it's just now getting to the point that I need to do something about it.

We get a lot of posts from people looking for the "best" mattress, and unfortunately these questions are really difficult to answer. Mattresses vary widely by comfort and quality, and what is good for one person isn't necessarily good for someone else.

However! There are a lot of brands I'd recommend that you AVOID AT ALL COSTS. These are brands that make mattresses of unknown materials, have a consistent history of terrible customer service, or are suspicious in other ways. This doesn't mean that their mattresses are always bad (or that you can't learn to sleep well on them), it just means that purchasing these is a much riskier proposition. So without further ado...

1) Nectar. I'd avoid them. We've gotten more complaints about Nectar (and the other brands associated with their parent company Resident Home) over the last three years than any other mattress company. I've seen material substitutions, poor quality, and reports of customer service ghosting customers after purchase. I don't trust them whatsoever.

2) Dreamcloud. Owned by the same company (Resident Home) as above. They use unknown materials, are constantly changing the construction of their mattresses, and have a terrible track record. Hard pass.

3) Puffy. Much like Dreamcloud, Puffy has a poor track record with customer service and material substitutions. There are no details on the foams they use, and I generally don't trust them.

4) Zinus/Lucid/Linenspa. These are generally the cheapest mattresses on the market and imported from overseas. These are made of unknown materials (and likely bottom of the barrel in terms of quality), and typically have fiberglass fire barriers. In fact, there are ongoing class-action lawsuits against Zinus for their use of fiberglass fire barriers. No idea how that will shake out, but I'd avoid them.

5) Molecule. I don't see this one mentioned a lot, but the last time I looked at their material specifications their base foam was only 1.5lb/pcf. As a general rule of thumb, do not buy a foam mattress with a base foam under 1.8lb/pcf unless it's intended for a guestroom or occasional use.

6) Serta/Simmons/Sealy/Stearns. I'd avoid these with the possible exception of some of their higher-end (and higher coil count) models. These generally use low quality foams, but can have some pretty excellent coil units. I would absolutely avoid the lower-end models though. These will quickly lose loft and support.
