  • Old video, but still very new. Well explained in great detail. Thank you
  • @hargretseeker77
    Wow this is actually a very good video. 10/10, deserves more views
  • Such a helpful video! I initially had an idea that pocket coils were the best. But I figured for the type of sleeper I am, connected would be a much better option.
  • @AruJP
    Perfect explanation!! Thanks to you I am going now to the store to buy my matress! ;)

    I really like the information content. Just bought a pocket spring mattress. It didn't work out for me, my back aches now. So I'm going to go back to bonnell spring mattress again(exchange) which I've been using for the last one decade. It worked really well for me but I had to change because the top layers got thinned out and the springs started popping out. And since in most of the videos that I watched and all the recommendations found on the internet, I decided to buy a pocket spring mattress.
  • Thanks for the video, much helpful. Can you please share your opinion about a person who is a side and stomach sleeper and has lower back problems (hernia)? Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the video. I'm in the market for a new bed. I have lower back issues and I cannot have any of that soft foam on top of my mattress. I need a firm mattress that will support my back and I'm also a back sleeper. With that in mind, which type of coil do you feel would support me the best? Also, do twin matresses tend to weat faster than full sized? Thanks!

    Hey Mike! Love your mattress info videos. So helpful, thanks for all your work. Have a question for you. I am sleeper that mostly switches all night from stomach to side and I seem to sleep best on stomach. Anyway I am looking for a new bed and would love your recommendation. One of the best beds I have slept on believe it or not was an old Serta Perfect Night Royal in an airbnb lots of nasty pee stains and the whole 9 yards BUT it was an amazing sleep!!! It is a discontinued model and I am looking for something you think would be comporable or best you would recommend. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I trust your opinion. Thanks again brother.
  • @Nightstar_
    Which coil system would be best for a back sleeper then?
  • @nathaniel1983
    Hey mike! I'm a 250 pound guy who is a stomach sleeper and can't seem to find a mattress that holds up. I prefer a firmer feel and not letting my hips sink. What would you suggest as a good mattress that stand up against time? I've had to get rid of the saatva (broke down very quickly) and the nest bedding latex (very quick and was recommended by your site) and another box mattress I forgot the name. Basically need something that stands the test of time for a big body and a partner. Could you please please help me out? Currently checking out what the classic brands have with beautyrest and sterns and foster. Just don't want to make another mistake. This things are expense lol
  • I'm a back and side sleeper..I wanted a medium, pillowtop mattress..should I get pocketed or connected
