Stearns
and Foster Innerspring Mattress Reviews
& Ratings --
Based on Data From Over 115 Owners
What
You Need To Know
Despite the bed's generally high price and positioning as
a luxury brand, little more than half of owners say the mattress
is comfortable. The main cause of dissatisfaction regarding
comfort is premature sagging, which is sagging of the mattress
that takes place within three years of purchase.
Variations of the bed that have a layer of memory foam, latex,
or pillow top usually have a higher comfort rating and perhaps
more durability.

Glossary
Comfortable
Lying and sleeping on the Steanrs & Foster innerspring
mattress is restful because it adequately relieves pressure
points and allows muscles, especially back muscles, to relax.
In other words, the mattress provides at least the opportunity
for better, more efficient sleep.
Uncomfortable
The bed fails to make lying and sleeping on it restful because
it does not adequately relieve pressure points and allow muscles
to relax. In other words, the bed does not provide the opportunity
for sound, efficient sleep.
Premature sagging
Sagging of the mattress to an extent that makes the bed uncomfortable
took place within three years after purchase.
Durable
The bed maintains its comfort and support and does not sag
for at least three years after purchase. For those Stearns
and Foster owners who did not report premature sagging, the
average age of their bed was 8.3 years.
Off gassing
The mattress gives off a chemical-like odor initially, which
can last for hours to weeks.
