THE RETAILER: The bed is currently available only at shopmarriott.com.

Marriott Bed Ratings

The ratings below are based on 40 owner / consumer reviews for the Supreme Foam and Supreme Foam Plus models – not the innerspring model. The data was gathered using an unbiased, accurate methodology.

Owner satisfaction	b	The Marriott Bed has 83% owner satisfaction. (83 out of 100 based on 40 reviews). Owners who purchase the entire Marriott Bed package – bed, linens, topper, comforter and pillows – tend to be somewhat more satisfied than owners who buy only the mattress.
Durability / longevity	c	15% of owners report premature sagging / body impression development which is about average for foam beds.
Price	c	Marriott Beds cost $1500-$2250 depending on size and model (Supreme Foam or Supreme Foam Plus). Shipping is an additional $325+. Purchasing an entire package (bed, linens, etc.) will increase the price considerably, up to $3800.
Reduced pain / pressure points	b	The bed performs well on this issue for most owners, similar to foam mattresses overall. (See mattresses and pain relief for analysis.)
Motion isolation	b	Motion made on the bed is fairly well localized and, as a result, the mattress is generally couple friendly.
No initial odor / off gassing	c	A few instances of slight-to-moderate off gassing have been reported. (See mattress off gassing for more analysis.)
Easy to move on / get up off	b-	Owner experience data suggests that only when the mattress has sagged / developed body impressions can moving on the bed be difficult. However, a lack of side support can make getting up off the bed somewhat difficult.
No sleeping hot	c	About 6% of owners report the mattress acting as a heat trap.
No noise	a	The mattress is silent under all conditions.
Good for sex	c+	Like all foam mattresses, the Marriott Bed lacks a bounce effect which some people say undermines the quality of love making. See mattresses and sex.
Lightweight	c	The Marriott Bed is about average in weight compared to other mattresses. It can be difficult for one person to move and handle.
Warranty	c-	The Marriott Bed warranty is for 10 years, which is at least somewhat below average compared to other foam mattresses in this price range. (See mattress warranties: what you should know.)
Availability	d	The bed is currently available only at shopmarriott.com.
Return policy	f	Shopmarriott.com does not permit returns or exchanges for comfort reasons, only for defects.
Customer service	b	Jamison's customer service generally gets positive marks.
Company reputation rating	B	Jamison Bedding, Inc. has a reputation rating of "B". The rating is based on a combination of metrics including its Better Business Bureau rating (A+) and rating stability, number of Better Business Bureau complaints / company size ratio, years in operation, product ratings and customer service ratings.
