    Truth is it is never a good deal buying mattresses from mass merchandisers or department stores because they usually buy from the wholesaler and then put a high markup on the mattress before selling to consumers.

    Close door sales or card days are the best times to buy, it is a better deal than normal days but I wouldn't say it is a good deal.

    Good luck with your shopping.

    can anyone tell me if Prince Peter London Bedding's mattresses are good?

    Thanks

    It really does not matter if it is good or not. It is an absolutely unknown brand, there are so many reputable brands out there so if I were you I would go buy something that has been around longer. Otherwise, it is like buying an Olena Mattress from Bez Gallery. It is an invitation to waste money.

    Dear All,

    I have attached 2 links for people who are looking to buy a mattresses:

    http://www.themattressunderground.com/our-articles/major-mattress-manufacturers-top-15.html

    https://www.goodbed.com/mattress-reviews/

    I am creating this thread because there are so many major brands of mattresses available in Singapore, there is no need for consumers to hunt down little known brands and risk their hard earned money just to save a few hundred dollars.

    I refer to the ongoing saga with Bez Mattress Gallery.

    In addition to the top US brands there are also many other reputable brands in Singapore.

    While it is true that top brands charge more, some mid-range brands are still very affordable.

    I understand that everyone has a budget but there is always a limit as to how cheap a manufacturer can produce a mattress without compromising quality. In my opinion, any pocketed spring mattress below $800 is just not worth buying because it is not possible.

    If you have a small budget just buy a standard bonnell spring mattress, there have been around a hundred years.

    So happy shopping but really stay away from well known brands. They are well known for a reason.

    Clearly, the company is in trouble.

    Here's the dilemma, if people continue to buy from them then perhaps the people that bought earlier may get their orders but eventually somebody will be left holding the bag.

    So to people considering buying from them, perhaps you may choose not to risk your hard-earned money.

    I suppose the best solution is to tell them that you will only pay a small deposit and then make full payment upon receiving the goods.

    That way, the company may stay in business and everybody gets their orders and nobody loses their deposits.

    You are actually right about pocket spring and it is technically correct. Pocket spring mattress is sufficient but nowadays all major brands like Simmons, Sealy, Slumberland have their own continuous spring version. These larger companies are able to afford and patent their own design and command a higher price on these continuous spring. The feedback that i got is that Titanium alloy is simply a mixture of various metal including titanium (So does BMW, -, Lexus, etc?). i didn't ask about the % of titanium.

    Hence, i normally purchase as long as the wife likes it, feels comfortable and within reasonable means.

    Today, i went down to Sealy Sleep Palace at Tanglin plaza (very limited parking) to see how much Sealy have grown over the past 5-6 years after we purchase our first bed. it is a good recap that Sealy actually sells their bed to major hotel chains like St. Regis, Ritz Carlton, Holiday Inn, etc and i always appreciate a good bed after a long travel.

    Additionally, i learn that there are price ranging from 1k+ to 20k for the top of the range mattress and the hotel lines utilize the mid range 3-4k type of bed and if we travel enough, we can feel the difference between a good (hotel) and a budget (motel) bed.

    Other then that i think we are happy with our purchase of Heritage plush and some other things we bought. Couldn't afford the top of the range kind, but it does feel very good just to lie on it (free trial).

    I went back to Sealy only on one decision, their after sales service. I'm sure there are other better beds out there, but i'm a stickler for after sales service. If anybody is looking for Sealy, i would recommend the Sealy Sleep palace at Tanglin plaza, but not the IMM sleep boutique. They all are distributors of Sealy but the flagship store at Tanglin plaza has a fuller range for someone who have not kept up with the mattress world.

    Cheers!

    Absolutely, it is not what it is made of, it is not how it is made, it is not who makes it. These things are not important at all, it is how the mattress works for you that matters.

    If you enjoy it then it is a good product.

    The coils are titanium alloy.

    Where did you read that the coils are 100% Titanium?

    Titanium Posturepedic Coils - Manufactured Titanium alloy makes this coil system extremely durable, but light and flexible. 660 coils in queen size.

    US company wouldn't dare lie through their teeth as the federal laws there are more stringent when it comes to invitation to sell and advertisement.

    The amount of Titanium is not published. It is probably impossible that it is 100% since my glasses have a tiny bit of Titanium and they cost $700.

    Sealy does not want to review percentage but probably not substantial otherwise they would have published a long time ago.

    On some websites it is claimed to be titanium-alloy infused, meaning it is not strictly speaking a Titanium alloy but it definitely contains Titanium.

    It is a big secret.

    Another thing you may want to know about Sealy is that in the US where they are originally from, they push pocketed spring mattresses but in Singapore they don't.
