US-Mattress's Blog

In Shakespeare’s time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase, “Good night, sleep tight.”

I would like to know the Length and Width for this mattress: Simmons Beautyrest World Class Lusaka Visco Plush Pillowtop King Mattress.

Hi Maria,
All king size mattresses have the same dimensions. A king size is 76 inches wide by 80 inches long.

From Theda -
I just want to buy a mattress. I have the box springs. Is that possible?

Hi Theda,
Yes, you can purchase a mattress by itself.
If the model you are interested in is not located in the “mattress only” section you would need to place the order over the phone.

Many children have to deal with is getting on a good sleep schedule. It’s tough no matter what age they are. Not getting enough sleep is an important cause of school performance problems as well as behavioral problems, so it is important to encourage good sleep habits for children of all ages.

It is best to get your child on the sleep routine they will have once school starts as soon as possible and at least a few weeks before school starts. During this time, it is best to keep to as strict a routine as possible, with the same bedtime and wake up time each day, even on weekends.

From Carol in FL -
I have fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. I have been sleeping on a waterbed for 25 + years. My mother has been trying to tell me all these years that the waterbed was not doing my joints any good, that I should try a bed instead of the waterbed. I was to a point where I found it hard to walk, alot of backpain, just pain over most of my body, my feet were even hurting, I had heard that when you have back problem that can effect your feet. Well my waterbd sprung a leek, I finally listen to my mother. My parent bought us a Sealy Posture-Pedic mattress. After sleeping in it for two nights, I can feel a tremendous difference with my joints, and my back, the pain is nothing like it use to be, I can get out of a chair without any pain or stiffness. The only problem I am having is getting into the bed, It is alot HIGHER than the waterbed, but I’m getting better at it. I just wanted to e-mail you and let you know I am very, very pleased with my new bed

From Pat and Gary -

We just want to thank you for your wonderful service and loads of info available in choosing our new mattress. Just received it yesterday. The crew was wonderful, competent and great personalities. I had to let you know, the reason we choose Sealy was a hotel stay. Well, last night was the best night sleep ever. We bought an upgrade from the hotel’s model and am not sorry. Thanks again, I do appreciate all info available. It helped us in choosing what we could afford and both of us like.

Pat and Gary,

We are very happy to hear that you are satisfied with your purchase, it is always nice to hear positive feedback.
