Keep reading to learn about the brand and about the pros and cons consumers highlight in Simmons Beautyrest’s best mattress reviews.About SimmonsSimmons is a brand that has been in existence for over 140 years, which indicates that this is a name that many consumers are familiar with.

The Simmons range of products is sold exclusively through their dealer and retailer network.The Simmons Beautyrest Mattress LineThe Beautyrest line is Simmon’s flagship brand, which centers on innersprings but also includes the Comforpedic memory foam line. For this article, we will focus exclusively on the spring and hybrid lines, which are introduced below:Beautyrest Recharge – This line features 800 density pocketed coils, luxurious fabrics, and Simmons’ Air Cool and Gel foams. Some models also include memory foam layers. Model names and pricing can vary by retailer with average queen prices between about $600-1400.Beautyrest Recharge World Class -The World Class line adds memory foam and TruTemp gel foam to each bed and features 1000 density pocketed coils. Some models also have 1000 micro-pocketed coils intended to improve conformability.

Models have different pillowtop materials from foam to memory foam to gel and latex. Queen size price averages range between $1,700-$5,200.Overview of Simmons Beautyrest Mattress ReviewsSimmons Beautyrest mattress reviews are one of the best ways to gain insight into the pros and cons of ownership. We scanned review data from SleepLikeTheDead.com as well as other consumer review websites to see what people liked and did not like about this brand. We also compare this to averages for innerspring beds to see where Simmons falls and if the lines offer significant advantages or disadvantages.Simmons Beautyrest Mattress Reviews: ProsBetter than average motion isolationBetter than average satisfaction for some modelsComfort and less pain for first 3 yearsBetter than average warrantySimmons Beautyrest mattress reviews indicate several positive traits, but some lines fare better than others. The TruEnergy and Black lines have the highest average reviews, with around 70-72% of consumers reporting satisfaction. The Recharge World Class line has about 68-69% satisfaction, however the Recharge line comes in at 61-62% which is below the industry average of 63%.All of the lines score above average on motion isolation, or the ability to prevent transfer of movement from one side to the other. This is likely due to the use of pocket coils, which are known to excel at this trait.Owners are also likely to say that their mattress is comfortable and does not cause pain, at least initially, and especially with the TruEnergy and World Class lines. All mattresses score within the average range for pain relief.The other significant advantage from Simmons Beautyrest mattress reviews is the warranty length, which is longer than many of the other brands with similar products. The Recharge line comes with a 20 year limited warranty, while the World Class, TruEnergy and Black lines have 25 years of coverage.Simmons Beautyrest Mattress Reviews: ConsAverage to below-average sagging and impressionsLess comfort and more pain after 3 yearsSome models have higher than average noise, heat and odor complaintsDespite the attractive pros, there are a few things that consumers have complained about in Simmons Beautyrest mattress reviews. The issues focus on long-term comfort and durability, value, and other model-specific complaints.The most questionable aspect of the Simmons Beautyrest lines is that consumers do not feel confident in the longevity or durability of the mattress because of how quickly the bed begins to sag and show body impressions. Sagging and impressions have been shown to increase pain, which can significantly reduce owner satisfaction in as little as 3 years. About 25% of Beautyrest reviews indicate sagging within the first few years of ownership which is no better than average. Issues are more prevalent in the two Recharge lines than with TruEnergy and Black models.The Simmons Beautyrest mattresses with memory foam, namely the TruEnergy and Black lines, also have higher than average complaints of odor and heat retention, likely due to the higher memory foam content. About 10% of reviewers who own beds with more than 2” of memory foam complain of heat, despite the company’s claims of cooler sleep with their Air Cool technology. The TruEnergy line also has higher complaints of noisiness than the other models.Frequently Asked QuestionsCan you flip a Simmons Beautyrest mattress?Simmons notes on their web page that their mattresses are designed so you don’t have to flip them. However, the company does recommend regular rotation. Rotating your mattress prevent you from wearing it out in one spot.Is a firm mattress better for your back?No, a firm mattress isn’t necessarily the best mattress for you or your back. For example, side sleepers will likely wake up with sore hips and shoulders and a stiff back if they sleep on a firm mattress. Back sleepers may prefer a medium-firm mattress, which has been linked to soothing back pain.Can you sleep on a new mattress straight away?Usually, yes you can. Bed in a box mattresses should only take a few minutes to expand enough for sleeping, though many companies recommend giving them up to a day so they feel truly comfortable.Don’t be surprised if your first night on a new mattress isn’t that great. It can take time to adjust to and break in a new bed.How do you know if your mattress is too soft?One sure sign that you’re sleeping on a too soft mattress is waking up with a stiff, sore back. It may be difficult to get comfortable as you try to fall asleep. You may also find your mattress swallows your body, making it difficult to move across the surface.What can you put under a mattress to make it firmer?One old trick is to slip a piece of moisture-resistant plywood under your mattress. A supportive surface such as plywood sometimes evens out a sagging mattress.Of course, you can also take the opposite approach and try firming up the top of your bed. While many mattress toppers feel soft, you can find a few firm ones as well.Verdict from Simmons Beautyrest Mattress ReviewsThe Simmons brand is consistently changing and innovating, and has hit on a wide range of styles that are popular in the market. Takeaways from Simmons Beautyrest mattress reviews basically indicate that this mattress falls within the affordable range for most lines, is initially comfortable, and offers good motion isolation, but has longevity issues that may impact long-term comfort and overall value.However, many innerspring mattress brands in the price range also suffer from similar problems when compared to other types of mattresses like latex and all memory foam beds. While specific models are difficult to assess since they vary by retailer, the Recharge World Class and TruEnergy lines appear to offer the best balance of value and satisfaction potential.If you are considering this type of bed, don’t rely on brand name alone since different lines show significant changes- always make sure to check out Simmons Beautyrest mattress reviews for the models you are considering and compare what you find to other options to see which offers the best fit based on your needs and budget.This article is for informational purposes and should not replace advice from your doctor or other medical professional.

Pete Best Mattress Brand August 4, 2016 at 12:54 pm ReplyHello Pete,Yes, the mattress tag that’s sewn onto the foot of the bed typically includes a line that says “Date of Manufacture” which should have this. It is often in the lines of information towards the top. Some will include model numbers, some will include names. Hope that helps!

Want another one but I’m reading all these reviews and it sounds like Beautyrest has gone downhill. I’ve had this mattress for 16 years. Is this one still made? Pam October 14, 2016 at 10:40 pm ReplyWe purchased a Beauty Rest Recharge king size with Simmons split box springs 6/2014! It failed in 3months! Sagging in multiple areas. Value City replaced it in 4/2015 but they made us pay the difference in price do to no sale was going at the time! Simmons refused to honor their warranty! They claimed sagging wasn’t enough to their specks! BS ! Sagging in 3 mo.! Now this new Beauty Rest Recharge of course did the same! Now we have a bed we can not sleep on that’s a little over a year old! And can’t afford to buy a new bed. The store Value City says they can’t do anything about it because they replaced the first one at their cost! It’s up to Beauty Rest & they said it’s not sagging enough to be covered under Simmons Beauty Rest warranty! I don’t understand their terminology of not sagging enough! No mattress should sag in 3 mo.! Jean Clarke July 29, 2020 at 10:46 am ReplyI ‘ve been getting the run around trying to reach the warranty department. Beauty Rest Hartfield Luxury Firm, Queen Prime, sinking in less than a yr after purchase. Sooo disappointed. Do no buy Beautyrest. Rhonda O'Brien November 2, 2016 at 8:29 pm ReplyWow! I was ready to buy a Beauty Rest Black Hybrid but now steering very clear. Reviews are the true story as far as I’m concerned. I’m sorry so many have suffered and lost out financially but thankful these kinds of blogs are available to consumers. Livia February 25, 2017 at 7:09 pm ReplyAt last! Someone with the insight to solve the problem! Tom May 20, 2017 at 12:46 pm ReplyBought a king-size Beautyrest mattress (do not remember the model) but it sagged big time after maybe a year of use. My wife weighs 140, husband weighs 185, so we are not monsters. Complained to the mattress store where we bought it. The manufacturer’s rep came and took measurements. Agreed that mattress had sagged big time and helped us get a replacement. I had to pay a mattress store $99 and haul it home myself. The replacement is a Beautyrest Recharge Matthews Beach made in Fredericksburg, VA by SSB Mfg Co. made in 2015. Same old story. Sag city! Like sleeping in 2 troughs with a high hump in the middle. The mattress business is a racket. About as bad as payday loans. On a lighter side, the “Pasture-Pedic” model contains 2 bales of hay. Perhaps it does not sag. peter August 1, 2017 at 11:25 am ReplyBuyer beware! I had a Beautyrest Recharge Comfort Top. It started sagging in the middle after just one year. If a Beauty Recharge Comfort Top cannot hold a 140-pound person, there must be something wrong. Brenda October 13, 2017 at 9:04 am ReplyI was seriously thinking about buying a Simmons mattress so glad I read these reviews. I will continue my search definitely not for a Simmons. Thank you all for your statements of your experiences with Simmons mattress. Karen S Sack September 22, 2017 at 6:46 am ReplyWe purchased a Beautyrest mattress and adjustable frame three years ago. It cost $2288.00. The mattress had a 10 year warranty. It now has a lump in the inner coils of the mattress. I contacted the warranty site and filed a claim. I paid $24.95 for a “kit” which consisted of string and 2 pieces of cardboard. It wouldn’t show the problem. I called them and they said I could have someone come out from “Mattress Marshall, Inc” but no one would lay on the bed to feel the lump. I was basically told there was nothing I could do about it. I have contacted “Simmon’s corporate” but have not received a call back. The salesperson tried to help us and couldn’t. Never again! Fleur November 3, 2017 at 7:56 pm ReplyWe purchased a Simmons Beautyrest Black Manhattan King Bed mattress in 2012. Within 1 year it was sagging and we don’t weigh over 80kgs. I could fee the inner pocket coils digging in my back at night. This was the worst mattress we ever bought at the top-dollar price of $5200. We tried to live with it due to the hefty price tag but caused all other issues with aches and pain back problems. I will never buy a Simmons Beautyrest bed ever again, it was the worst investment in a bed we’ve ever made. What a rip off for absolute crap. Casia Dodson December 28, 2017 at 11:27 am ReplyI purchcased a beautyrest mattress awhile back, and it sags on the side I sleep on. In order to get to the other side of the bed I must get out of bed and go around, or climb up on what is like a big hump. I will never purchase this brand again. I used to swear by them. When I went back to the store after ten months I was given the run-around and gave up. Terri January 16, 2018 at 3:46 pm ReplyWe have had the exact same experience. We had our Beautyrest mattress less than a year and experienced exactly as you described. Have purchased in the past this brand and was very happy ( of course that was when you could flip and rotate your mattress). I’m conflicted, because I’m not sure I will purchase another Beautyrest mattress at this point. Lizzy Shoemaker February 7, 2018 at 1:32 pm ReplyWe purchased a Simmons and had the same sagging experience everyone else is describing, it was very noticeable to the naked eye, however we did the warranty claim and had an inspector come out and look at it who assured us we wouldn’t have issues getting a replacement, but Simmons wants to tell us that are bed is “too soiled”. Mind you we have had a mattress protector on it, my husband sweats at night other than that there are not major stains on it. And what do stains have to do with the sagging of a bed? Well they want to say we put a liquid on it to melt our bed??? Really. So they will not help at all. Absolutely ridiculous. Worse customer service ever. We will never purchase this brand again. Francine Carter February 9, 2018 at 3:37 pm ReplyYou will see a lot of websites post reviews about mattresses. Generally it’s only the bad, never good. Every product has some issues, doesn’t matter if it’s a mattress or a car. The ratio of issues to sales are probably less than 1%. So think of how many (billions?) of mattresses that are sold in North America. Nobody is perfect! Issue is also with customers falling into sales traps instead of trying to see what’s in the bed vs being told that it’s a good bed or believing it’s good because it was $4000 (you paid too much!). When was the last time anyone posted a good review about EVERYTHING that you purchased??? We simply do not have the time to we do make time when something is wrong though, as we want perfection but are unable to give perfection ourselves. Karen King September 23, 2018 at 5:41 am ReplyWhat a mattress company shows you and what you end up with are 2 different animals. Address how you can visibly detect the difference between mattress you tested and the one delivered to you – especially if the date of manufacture on the floor model is 2 years older. You can’t. It’s like buying a diamond! You trust that it is what they say it is, period. Joe Kennidy February 25, 2018 at 5:09 am ReplyWe bought a Beautyrest at Sleepy’s they sent a truck with 40 mattresses in it to drop offs off with three people that had no experience in moving. They brought our Beautyrest mattress and said it would fold 40% up our steps, a king-size. On our way up, the three of them took a half-hour, they were so lazy, ruined our carpeting downstairs. And upstairs they left giant Cuts in it. Long story short, ended up making a complaint to the company sand they sent us a check for $1,800 disputed to bed and a credit card ended up getting the bed for $800. I had to buy a foam pad for $200 memory foam to get it comfortable. I still have had it for only 6 years. Talked us into the frame and fireproofing all this junk, they’re all the same rip-offs. pkygola May 10, 2018 at 10:05 am ReplyWell, I decided to buy a black line Beautyrest mattress but I’m unable to find a mattress within $2000 budget from Beautyrest… carolyn July 15, 2018 at 8:39 am ReplyWe had a Recharge mattress and after two years my husband and I were sleeping in two pits with a big hump between us. Horrible . We got rid of it!!!! LB August 21, 2018 at 11:37 am ReplyExactly the same for us, but in less than 6 months!!!! Bernice February 24, 2020 at 4:46 pm ReplyI also have a Recharge and the same thing happened. I was sleeping in two pits with a high bump in the middle–terrible mattress. Stacey August 15, 2018 at 6:18 pm ReplySo glad to read these reviews, I thought it was me losing my mind. I’ve had my bed for five years and I can’t tell you how long it has been sagging. I just bought a new mattress that will be coming soon from a different company, and now I know that the quality of the Beautyrest is poor; for others as well. Very disappointing! LB August 21, 2018 at 11:36 am ReplyUnfortunately, we bought a Beauty Rest Hartfield Mattress from Mattress Firm Outlet, they say it was used in the store for less than 30 days. It really looked like new, but after 6 months it has a whole valley that separates 1/4 of the bed. We bought a King size but we can use less than a double. If you sleep on the valley, you’ll experience back pain for sure. Terrible defective product, terrible store!!! 10 years warranty, but not if it was on the display for 30 days or less. How can anyone explain such a problem with less than 6 months being used!!! L.K. September 23, 2018 at 5:32 am ReplyI bought a Sealy mattress from Haverty’s recently. I had to teturn a mattress that did not perform as expected and was not the product I tested on the showroom floor. After return-ing and emphatic about not purchasing a Sealy mattress, I selected a Stearns & Foster, believing it was not Sealy-related. I was told upon selection S&F was purchased bt Tempurpedic to avoid competition…The store failed to mention that it was also a Sealy company, like BeautyRest. The new S&F bed, alleged manuf. date of 09-2018 by a yellow tag added to the side of the mattress, has no readable/ legible legal tag on it. This bed is not the quality I tested at Haverty’s, so..has anyone else had this issue? Very disap-pointed. ? Joanne October 26, 2018 at 5:40 pm ReplyWe are looking at a simmons beautyrest queen’s choice, Buckingham Plush Eurotop mattress set, double, from the brick. Have not been able to find this model anywhere except The Brick. Which model does this mattress compare to? Is this queen’s choice model made exclusively for the Brick? Bonnie February 22, 2019 at 1:59 pm ReplyI purchased my Simmons Beauty Rest Classic Soverign mattress from Sears in Sept 2015 (tag on mattress manufacture date 09/30/15 -Warranty code A – 10 yr warranty) Less than 3 yrs it had an indent of 4″ but because Sears is now out of business, I contacted Customer Service in Calgary about warranty replacement. I was told it would be replaced if I sent in the tags, which I did in December. Still no mattress as of today, Feb 22. Adam March 13, 2019 at 7:02 pm ReplyAgree with the comments on here. I have a Riverstone 2 which was supposed to be really good and it was expensive to top it off. Well, it sags all over. I’m constantly turning it to try to minimize it but its no use. It’s just a shitty mattress. Also bought at sears so could not do anything re: warranty. Very disappointing experience. Will be purchasing a different brand in the future. Never Again March 19, 2019 at 7:07 am ReplySimmons BeautyRest warranties are a joke! They don’t come out and check out the mattress. They pass the warranty off on the store that you purchased the mattress from. We had a 10 year warranty and after 8 years, the mattress was sagging and uncomfortable to find a good position. They voided the warranty because they said the frame did not meet their standards. We purchased the mattress and bed frame at the same time from the same store. Now after a month of back and forth with Simmons and the store we purchased the mattress from, we have to buy a new mattress. Both companies passed the buck! And not in our favor! Steven January 26, 2020 at 11:10 pm ReplyI agree with the negative reviews. I own a Silver Beautyrest King. After 12 months the mattress started to sag significantly. I turned the mattress but the other side also sags. I am now 2.5 years post-purchase and very dissatisfied. Nellia S. Young December 11, 2019 at 12:31 am ReplyI’ve had TWO, count em, TWO Sertas after sticking with Beautyrest for umpteen years. The first was a “Vera Wang” model that collapsed on the sides after three years. With a 20 year warranty, yet, they wouldn’t honor the warranty. lt should have been a warning not to go to the I-comfort, which I’ve had for three years and has sagged on both sides like the Vera Wang. Really crap. I STILL HAVE a commercial grade Beautyrest (hotel model) innerspring bought in 1981(!!!) that my guests tell me is the most comfortable bed in the place. I also have a Beautyrest euro-top in my guest room that I am now sleeping on to get away from the awful I-comfort while I try to find something NOT foam that won’t sag after 6 months. If I can’t find anything that works I will move the 1981 model out of the guest cottage back into my bedroom and sleep comfortably once again! Silvana Romano January 9, 2020 at 6:29 pm ReplyThese are very true. I have a beauty rest Simmons & have been emailing the Company. They have sent out a person to inspect it and I’ve got an email saying there’s nothing wrong when the bed that I purchased. But the mattress is sagging and it’s not firm. Yet, they stand behind their product. I’m very frustrated and very disappointed, I will never buy another Simmons Beauty Rest ever again. Mine is with the control and it’s the most uncomfortable. Rebecca February 14, 2020 at 9:19 pm ReplyI was going to buy another Beautyrest because I have one in storage that purchased in the early 2000s and it is very comfortable. These reviews have maybe changed my mind. F. Chalfin May 10, 2020 at 6:01 pm ReplyI have been very disappointed with Beautyrest. . My first “firm” mattresses was NOT firm. I asked for, and got another one. Over time, the new one has gotten worse. Not only has it turned soft, but a mountain ridge has formed between my lady and me . It has been very bad. Sbirleg May 16, 2020 at 7:27 pm ReplyI have a Simmons maxipedic Americas Best from July1996 this has been the best mattress l have ever owned. I been on the internet for months looking for a good mattress because it’s time to replace. They dont make good mattress like they use to. The new mattresses are made of polyurethane and plastic cheap junk make sure you only buy a matress that is made of latex.

We all pay so much more for so much less!!!! leonie w June 25, 2020 at 7:31 pm ReplyId recommend people to NEVER buy a Simmons Beautyrest mattress. The warranty is not worth the paper its written on. They do everything to make it impossible to claim and the sagging is a big issue for comfort and support. They clearly give themselves over and above a safe level of back care sagging level to avoid standing by their product. These are amongst the worst beds with the highest prices. Trifon Santos July 7, 2020 at 9:47 am ReplyReview is very informative. Bought a beautyrest bay spring firm in March 2019 and starts sagging on my side when I lay down not visible on top of mattress as a requirement for warranty. That’s the catch. Not fair paying almost 2 grands for the bed and adjustable base. And company can’t event offer a replacement even with an independent firm affirmed the sagging inside. Margot Southgate July 14, 2020 at 4:22 pm ReplyWorst bed/mattress we ever purchased. The top supposed ‘best part of back and body position’ failed within 18 months. We noticed the indents starting early on 3cm within 6 -12 months, 5 – 8 on my hubby’s side within 18 – 2 years. We turned the mattress every couple of weeks as directed for 3 months + but gave up when we could see it wasn’t stopping the drop. We contacted them early on and they said it was designed to drop. I call BS as we now have a terrible bed which has massive indents and a noticeable split between the 2 sides of the king mattress, it causes me huge amounts of pain when rolling over in the night if I’ve ended up on my tummy that it wakes me due to the ‘banana bend’ i end up in. I’ve now spoken to a couple of other owners who have the same issues. Be warned. They’re crap.

He said they “ would work something out.” Alan Blalock October 1, 2020 at 8:15 am ReplyMy Simmons BeautyRest Signature Series full mattress and box spring set began to bunch in the middle after 4 months. After 6 months we began to get depressions that within a year had developed so deeply (more than 4 inches) that we had to replace the mattress (with another brand). BUYER BEWARE! Ask to see the complete warranty including the conditions that must be met to have a claim honored, including the online measuring device that you have to print out and use. These conditions can rarely be met by the consumer. Leave a comment Cancel replyLeave a CommentYour email address will not be published.

The store Value City says they can’t do anything about it because they replaced the first one at their cost! It’s up to Beauty Rest & they said it’s not sagging enough to be covered under Simmons Beauty Rest warranty! I don’t understand their terminology of not sagging enough! No mattress should sag in 3 mo.!
Jean Clarke July 29, 2020 at 10:46 am ReplyI ‘ve been getting the run around trying to reach the warranty department. Beauty Rest Hartfield Luxury Firm, Queen Prime, sinking in less than a yr after purchase. Sooo disappointed. Do no buy Beautyrest.
Rhonda O'Brien November 2, 2016 at 8:29 pm ReplyWow! I was ready to buy a Beauty Rest Black Hybrid but now steering very clear. Reviews are the true story as far as I’m concerned. I’m sorry so many have suffered and lost out financially but thankful these kinds of blogs are available to consumers.
Tom May 20, 2017 at 12:46 pm ReplyBought a king-size Beautyrest mattress (do not remember the model) but it sagged big time after maybe a year of use. My wife weighs 140, husband weighs 185, so we are not monsters. Complained to the mattress store where we bought it. The manufacturer’s rep came and took measurements. Agreed that mattress had sagged big time and helped us get a replacement. I had to pay a mattress store $99 and haul it home myself. The replacement is a Beautyrest Recharge Matthews Beach made in Fredericksburg, VA by SSB Mfg Co. made in 2015. Same old story. Sag city! Like sleeping in 2 troughs with a high hump in the middle. The mattress business is a racket. About as bad as payday loans. On a lighter side, the “Pasture-Pedic” model contains 2 bales of hay. Perhaps it does not sag.
peter August 1, 2017 at 11:25 am ReplyBuyer beware! I had a Beautyrest Recharge Comfort Top. It started sagging in the middle after just one year. If a Beauty Recharge Comfort Top cannot hold a 140-pound person, there must be something wrong.
Brenda October 13, 2017 at 9:04 am ReplyI was seriously thinking about buying a Simmons mattress so glad I read these reviews. I will continue my search definitely not for a Simmons. Thank you all for your statements of your experiences with Simmons mattress.
Karen S Sack September 22, 2017 at 6:46 am ReplyWe purchased a Beautyrest mattress and adjustable frame three years ago. It cost $2288.00. The mattress had a 10 year warranty. It now has a lump in the inner coils of the mattress. I contacted the warranty site and filed a claim. I paid $24.95 for a “kit” which consisted of string and 2 pieces of cardboard. It wouldn’t show the problem. I called them and they said I could have someone come out from “Mattress Marshall, Inc” but no one would lay on the bed to feel the lump. I was basically told there was nothing I could do about it. I have contacted “Simmon’s corporate” but have not received a call back. The salesperson tried to help us and couldn’t. Never again!
Fleur November 3, 2017 at 7:56 pm ReplyWe purchased a Simmons Beautyrest Black Manhattan King Bed mattress in 2012. Within 1 year it was sagging and we don’t weigh over 80kgs. I could fee the inner pocket coils digging in my back at night. This was the worst mattress we ever bought at the top-dollar price of $5200. We tried to live with it due to the hefty price tag but caused all other issues with aches and pain back problems. I will never buy a Simmons Beautyrest bed ever again, it was the worst investment in a bed we’ve ever made. What a rip off for absolute crap.
Casia Dodson December 28, 2017 at 11:27 am ReplyI purchcased a beautyrest mattress awhile back, and it sags on the side I sleep on. In order to get to the other side of the bed I must get out of bed and go around, or climb up on what is like a big hump. I will never purchase this brand again. I used to swear by them. When I went back to the store after ten months I was given the run-around and gave up.
Terri January 16, 2018 at 3:46 pm ReplyWe have had the exact same experience. We had our Beautyrest mattress less than a year and experienced exactly as you described. Have purchased in the past this brand and was very happy ( of course that was when you could flip and rotate your mattress). I’m conflicted, because I’m not sure I will purchase another Beautyrest mattress at this point.
Lizzy Shoemaker February 7, 2018 at 1:32 pm ReplyWe purchased a Simmons and had the same sagging experience everyone else is describing, it was very noticeable to the naked eye, however we did the warranty claim and had an inspector come out and look at it who assured us we wouldn’t have issues getting a replacement, but Simmons wants to tell us that are bed is “too soiled”. Mind you we have had a mattress protector on it, my husband sweats at night other than that there are not major stains on it. And what do stains have to do with the sagging of a bed? Well they want to say we put a liquid on it to melt our bed??? Really. So they will not help at all. Absolutely ridiculous. Worse customer service ever. We will never purchase this brand again.
Francine Carter February 9, 2018 at 3:37 pm ReplyYou will see a lot of websites post reviews about mattresses. Generally it’s only the bad, never good. Every product has some issues, doesn’t matter if it’s a mattress or a car. The ratio of issues to sales are probably less than 1%. So think of how many (billions?) of mattresses that are sold in North America. Nobody is perfect! Issue is also with customers falling into sales traps instead of trying to see what’s in the bed vs being told that it’s a good bed or believing it’s good because it was $4000 (you paid too much!). When was the last time anyone posted a good review about EVERYTHING that you purchased??? We simply do not have the time to we do make time when something is wrong though, as we want perfection but are unable to give perfection ourselves.
Karen King September 23, 2018 at 5:41 am ReplyWhat a mattress company shows you and what you end up with are 2 different animals. Address how you can visibly detect the difference between mattress you tested and the one delivered to you – especially if the date of manufacture on the floor model is 2 years older. You can’t. It’s like buying a diamond! You trust that it is what they say it is, period.
Joe Kennidy February 25, 2018 at 5:09 am ReplyWe bought a Beautyrest at Sleepy’s they sent a truck with 40 mattresses in it to drop offs off with three people that had no experience in moving. They brought our Beautyrest mattress and said it would fold 40% up our steps, a king-size. On our way up, the three of them took a half-hour, they were so lazy, ruined our carpeting downstairs. And upstairs they left giant Cuts in it. Long story short, ended up making a complaint to the company sand they sent us a check for $1,800 disputed to bed and a credit card ended up getting the bed for $800. I had to buy a foam pad for $200 memory foam to get it comfortable. I still have had it for only 6 years. Talked us into the frame and fireproofing all this junk, they’re all the same rip-offs.
pkygola May 10, 2018 at 10:05 am ReplyWell, I decided to buy a black line Beautyrest mattress but I’m unable to find a mattress within $2000 budget from Beautyrest…
carolyn July 15, 2018 at 8:39 am ReplyWe had a Recharge mattress and after two years my husband and I were sleeping in two pits with a big hump between us. Horrible . We got rid of it!!!!
Bernice February 24, 2020 at 4:46 pm ReplyI also have a Recharge and the same thing happened. I was sleeping in two pits with a high bump in the middle–terrible mattress.
Stacey August 15, 2018 at 6:18 pm ReplySo glad to read these reviews, I thought it was me losing my mind. I’ve had my bed for five years and I can’t tell you how long it has been sagging. I just bought a new mattress that will be coming soon from a different company, and now I know that the quality of the Beautyrest is poor; for others as well. Very disappointing!
LB August 21, 2018 at 11:36 am ReplyUnfortunately, we bought a Beauty Rest Hartfield Mattress from Mattress Firm Outlet, they say it was used in the store for less than 30 days. It really looked like new, but after 6 months it has a whole valley that separates 1/4 of the bed. We bought a King size but we can use less than a double. If you sleep on the valley, you’ll experience back pain for sure. Terrible defective product, terrible store!!! 10 years warranty, but not if it was on the display for 30 days or less. How can anyone explain such a problem with less than 6 months being used!!!
L.K. September 23, 2018 at 5:32 am ReplyI bought a Sealy mattress from Haverty’s recently. I had to teturn a mattress that did not perform as expected and was not the product I tested on the showroom floor. After return-ing and emphatic about not purchasing a Sealy mattress, I selected a Stearns & Foster, believing it was not Sealy-related. I was told upon selection S&F was purchased bt Tempurpedic to avoid competition…The store failed to mention that it was also a Sealy company, like BeautyRest. The new S&F bed, alleged manuf. date of 09-2018 by a yellow tag added to the side of the mattress, has no readable/ legible legal tag on it. This bed is not the quality I tested at Haverty’s, so..has anyone else had this issue? Very disap-pointed. ?
Joanne October 26, 2018 at 5:40 pm ReplyWe are looking at a simmons beautyrest queen’s choice, Buckingham Plush Eurotop mattress set, double, from the brick. Have not been able to find this model anywhere except The Brick. Which model does this mattress compare to? Is this queen’s choice model made exclusively for the Brick?
Bonnie February 22, 2019 at 1:59 pm ReplyI purchased my Simmons Beauty Rest Classic Soverign mattress from Sears in Sept 2015 (tag on mattress manufacture date 09/30/15 -Warranty code A – 10 yr warranty) Less than 3 yrs it had an indent of 4″ but because Sears is now out of business, I contacted Customer Service in Calgary about warranty replacement. I was told it would be replaced if I sent in the tags, which I did in December. Still no mattress as of today, Feb 22.
Adam March 13, 2019 at 7:02 pm ReplyAgree with the comments on here. I have a Riverstone 2 which was supposed to be really good and it was expensive to top it off. Well, it sags all over. I’m constantly turning it to try to minimize it but its no use. It’s just a shitty mattress. Also bought at sears so could not do anything re: warranty. Very disappointing experience. Will be purchasing a different brand in the future.
Never Again March 19, 2019 at 7:07 am ReplySimmons BeautyRest warranties are a joke! They don’t come out and check out the mattress. They pass the warranty off on the store that you purchased the mattress from. We had a 10 year warranty and after 8 years, the mattress was sagging and uncomfortable to find a good position. They voided the warranty because they said the frame did not meet their standards. We purchased the mattress and bed frame at the same time from the same store. Now after a month of back and forth with Simmons and the store we purchased the mattress from, we have to buy a new mattress. Both companies passed the buck! And not in our favor!
Steven January 26, 2020 at 11:10 pm ReplyI agree with the negative reviews. I own a Silver Beautyrest King. After 12 months the mattress started to sag significantly. I turned the mattress but the other side also sags. I am now 2.5 years post-purchase and very dissatisfied.
Nellia S. Young December 11, 2019 at 12:31 am ReplyI’ve had TWO, count em, TWO Sertas after sticking with Beautyrest for umpteen years. The first was a “Vera Wang” model that collapsed on the sides after three years. With a 20 year warranty, yet, they wouldn’t honor the warranty. lt should have been a warning not to go to the I-comfort, which I’ve had for three years and has sagged on both sides like the Vera Wang. Really crap. I STILL HAVE a commercial grade Beautyrest (hotel model) innerspring bought in 1981(!!!) that my guests tell me is the most comfortable bed in the place. I also have a Beautyrest euro-top in my guest room that I am now sleeping on to get away from the awful I-comfort while I try to find something NOT foam that won’t sag after 6 months. If I can’t find anything that works I will move the 1981 model out of the guest cottage back into my bedroom and sleep comfortably once again!
Silvana Romano January 9, 2020 at 6:29 pm ReplyThese are very true. I have a beauty rest Simmons & have been emailing the Company. They have sent out a person to inspect it and I’ve got an email saying there’s nothing wrong when the bed that I purchased. But the mattress is sagging and it’s not firm. Yet, they stand behind their product. I’m very frustrated and very disappointed, I will never buy another Simmons Beauty Rest ever again. Mine is with the control and it’s the most uncomfortable.
Rebecca February 14, 2020 at 9:19 pm ReplyI was going to buy another Beautyrest because I have one in storage that purchased in the early 2000s and it is very comfortable. These reviews have maybe changed my mind.
F. Chalfin May 10, 2020 at 6:01 pm ReplyI have been very disappointed with Beautyrest. . My first “firm” mattresses was NOT firm. I asked for, and got another one. Over time, the new one has gotten worse. Not only has it turned soft, but a mountain ridge has formed between my lady and me . It has been very bad.
Sbirleg May 16, 2020 at 7:27 pm ReplyI have a Simmons maxipedic Americas Best from July1996 this has been the best mattress l have ever owned. I been on the internet for months looking for a good mattress because it’s time to replace. They dont make good mattress like they use to. The new mattresses are made of polyurethane and plastic cheap junk make sure you only buy a matress that is made of latex.
Lori June 19, 2020 at 4:49 pm ReplyWe purchased a simmons mattress 2 years ago. Same problem sagging on both sides with a large mound going down middle of bed. Also very uncomfortable and painful. Contacted warranty department. After sending many pictures there response was our bed slats were to far apart. Our bed has 14 slats how many more do you need. Went back to original store where we purchased mattress and found out they no longer carry simmons. Too many customer complaints, very dissatisfied with the company not standing by there product and very poor customer service. Never again will I purchase or recommend Simmons.

Sharon June 22, 2020 at 5:22 am ReplyBought a new Beautyrest (replacing 15 year old Beautyrest ) Getting same runaround as in other reviews.. gave 15 year old mattress to son who was so excited to get. 8 months later same story..2 pits with a lump in the middle. New and improved doesn’t mean better…sorry son..we’re taking the bed back…why don’t companies take pride in their products anymore!!!! We all pay so much more for so much less!!!!
leonie w June 25, 2020 at 7:31 pm ReplyId recommend people to NEVER buy a Simmons Beautyrest mattress. The warranty is not worth the paper its written on. They do everything to make it impossible to claim and the sagging is a big issue for comfort and support. They clearly give themselves over and above a safe level of back care sagging level to avoid standing by their product. These are amongst the worst beds with the highest prices.
Trifon Santos July 7, 2020 at 9:47 am ReplyReview is very informative. Bought a beautyrest bay spring firm in March 2019 and starts sagging on my side when I lay down not visible on top of mattress as a requirement for warranty. That’s the catch. Not fair paying almost 2 grands for the bed and adjustable base. And company can’t event offer a replacement even with an independent firm affirmed the sagging inside.
Margot Southgate July 14, 2020 at 4:22 pm ReplyWorst bed/mattress we ever purchased. The top supposed ‘best part of back and body position’ failed within 18 months. We noticed the indents starting early on 3cm within 6 -12 months, 5 – 8 on my hubby’s side within 18 – 2 years. We turned the mattress every couple of weeks as directed for 3 months + but gave up when we could see it wasn’t stopping the drop. We contacted them early on and they said it was designed to drop. I call BS as we now have a terrible bed which has massive indents and a noticeable split between the 2 sides of the king mattress, it causes me huge amounts of pain when rolling over in the night if I’ve ended up on my tummy that it wakes me due to the ‘banana bend’ i end up in. I’ve now spoken to a couple of other owners who have the same issues. Be warned. They’re crap.
Chris Wharton August 3, 2020 at 3:48 am ReplyI bought a Princess Beauty Rest mattress 5 star diamond hotel editionAbsolutely Garbage so uncomfortable i spent near 1500 dollars on it a little over 2 years ago and it’s bar none the worst mattress I have ever bought Don’t buy one
Mary Bonner September 18, 2020 at 11:08 am ReplyHave been waiting since July 25th to receive my replacement mattress. Called yesterday and was told it was being delivered this morning. Nope not happening and now the next delivery date is October 31. Nobody called me to tell me it wasn’t being delivered. Terrible customer service! How long does it take to make a mattress in Denver and deliver it to Arvada?
April Gill September 23, 2020 at 3:39 pm ReplyPurchased mattress September 13, 2019. It starting sagging November 2019!! I’ve never had a mattress to sag! Now the furniture company wants to “ fix” it. I asked him how? He said they “ would work something out.”
Alan Blalock October 1, 2020 at 8:15 am ReplyMy Simmons BeautyRest Signature Series full mattress and box spring set began to bunch in the middle after 4 months. After 6 months we began to get depressions that within a year had developed so deeply (more than 4 inches) that we had to replace the mattress (with another brand). BUYER BEWARE! Ask to see the complete warranty including the conditions that must be met to have a claim honored, including the online measuring device that you have to print out and use. These conditions can rarely be met by the consumer.
