10 Inch Hybrid Mattress in a Box, Twin XL Size Latex Mattress with Memory Foam & Individually Pocket Coils Springs, Pressure Relief, Motion Isolation, Edge Support, CertiPUR-US Certified, Medium Firm

This replaces my $2,000 tube type waterbed. In this review I cover how it sleeps and why I bought it. I include details about this type and other types of mattresses available. I hope the time and information I learned will save you from the months I spent deciding which mattress is the best choice and at the best price. This is a pocket coil design with a topper of latex foam. I believe it is the best of all your choices (waterbed, foam and standard innerspring). If you are like me, you want the best sleep possible. Once that is settled, you want the best price you can get. My Sunrising pocket coil mattress is the result of my searching. If you want all the details, read on. If you want the "quick and dirty," just buy it. You will be a happy puppy and thank me. The bottom line is revealed by its weight. it weighs more than its competition because it has more and better springs than the rest. If that has you wondering, read my review. I took a bunch of pictures but my camera broke. If pictures are important, there are many in other reviews. Mine are about the same. ABOUT FIRMNESS The reviews all give different opinions about firmness. After two weeks with it, I think the reason is because of its “pocket coil” design. Let me explain. The individual springs yield to the different parts of our body much better than other mattresses. In this design, the springs compress individually. The heavier parts of our body yield more, while still giving support to the smaller parts like our legs, waist and head. If this makes sense, you can see the result is a feeling of firmness, yet a subtle feeling of softness. I think that may explain the differing opinions. Also, the movements of your wife or husband, never bother you. Oh, one other thing about firmness. I learned it from our firm Beautyrest mattress. The Beautyrest replaced another soft waterbed so the transition was radical. We were advised to give it a month before making a decision. After two weeks we loved it. It will be the same with the Sunrising. Some will say it is not that firm while others feel it is quite firm. I hope this explains the differing opinions. That is about all I can say about firmness except I consider it to be on the firm side. NOW ABOUT COMFORT The first night was fine; no odors and no discomfort. My nose is not the sensitive instrument my wife possesses. It passed her smell test, so it passes anything. Just like firmness is subjective, so is comfort. What I do is compare it to two of the other mattresses I’ve owned. The Sunrising replaced a $2,000 tube type waterbed. The other is my Beautyrest standard innerspring, firm. My rating is the Sunrising (one); the Beautyrest (two) and the waterbed (three). Now to explain my ranking. I have unusual body demands. I have two artificial hips, a minor, chronic back problem and my body temp rises when sleeping (so I sweat). My opinion is that the Sunrising will present no problems with normal folks or people with unusual problems. Ok – that was stage one. What is our experience after two weeks? My wife and I differ but we are both happy with our new bed. She says she slides around in this bed. She would sink into the waterbed and not move. She like that feature of the waterbed. I do not slide around but do not have the problem of being trapped as with the waterbed. I hated the waterbed for the same reason my wife liked it. Go figure. As far as our overall opinion goes, we both like this much better than the waterbed. We never were happy with it. After years of sleeping on three different types of waterbeds, I concluded waterbeds are a fabrication of marketing people. It seems to make sense that sleeping on water has got to be wonderful. They forget to mention there is a thick sheet of plastic between you and the water. That changes everything – at least in my opinion. The difference between the Beautyrest and the Sunrising is their construction. The springs in the Beautyrest are all linked together. The mattress yields to your body but it does it as a unit. Lay on it and the surface “dishes.” The firmer the mattress, the flatter the dish. The Sunrising springs are independent from each other. Thus each spring yields to your body in a unique way. (No dish) This allows your body to be better supported and conform to your unique body. It does not matter whether you sleep on you side back or stomach. The individual springs adjust to every sleeping position. I felt the Sunrising softened somewhat during the first week. That was a good thing. But again my wife responded differently. Still the bottom line is the same, we both like the mattress. Two other comments are the Sunrising offers no extra support on the edge. It concerned me but you can see from the picture (sorry there is no picture) of me sitting on the edge that support is acceptable. I have shrunk to 67 inches during the last 80 years and now weigh about 170 lbs. ABOUT CONSTRUCTION Our queen has 825 individual springs, making each spring smaller than many other similar mattresses. Increasing the number of springs, increases the flexibility and the weight of the mattress. Check the weight of the Sunrising against the competition. You will see it weighs more, indicating the better quality Sunrising added a one inch pad of latex to the top of the mattress. Its advantage is latex’s ability to sleep cool. I appreciate this as my body temperature rises when I sleep so I usually wake all sweaty. Too often we must change sheets because of it. With the Sunrising, I never have a sweat problem. Hallelujah. Answers to questions not asked The Sunrising mattress is reversible except for the fact that the latex is only on one side. I do not see a big problem with giving up the latex when you flip the mattress. If you miss its benefits, just buy a latex topper. Sunrising chose latex instead memory foam. It indicates their commitment to a high quality standard by not “cheaping out.” Their quality is reflected in another point, often missed when buying a spring mattress. Their springs are 12 gauge, tempered steel. It means they never wear out. Springs made of regular steel eventually lose their “memory,” resulting in sagging. O urqueen weighs 81lb and ships at almost 90 pounds. That’s more than the other pocket coil’s. WEIGHT translates to quality. You can fool the buyer but not the scales. It was one of my questions, when trying to determine quality. It is very easy to move around and flip, if that is a concern. I am retired so am a careful buyer when it comes to major purchases. I wanted to know more about the company and their guarantee. I searched them out on the “Net” and discovered a few things that might interest you. It appears they are selling factory direct and a small company trying to develop a marketing niche. My guess is that once they become better known for quality they might increase their prices. Right now is a good time to buy one of the best mattresses available at any price. You can probably tell that the pocket coil design is the most expensive to manufacture. When first introduced, they were the most expensive mattresses available. You can buy a pocket coil “name brand” mattress but your cost will be double or triple what the Sunrising Bedding pocket coil sells for. I'm done. Hope this answered all your questions. if you have more, just buy the bed and see for yourself. It comes with a 120 day money back guarantee, So if unhappy for ANY reason, tell Amazon to pick it up. There is no hassle, no cost and it is gone. But if you buy something else in place of it, I bet you will be sorry.

All things considered, this is the best mattress I can get for less than $500. I bought this mattress six months ago but decided to hold up my review until now, just to be sure that whatever the manufacturer of the mattress claim on the product description and reviews from other buyers is indeed true. So, my trial period has elapsed and I can precisely give an honest review of this product. I have tried at least six brands of mattresses before then but had not found one that meets my personal needs. However, I was not going to give up, and so I decided to buy the 8-inch hybrid natural latex mattress from Sunrising Bedding at Amazon.com, although I had so much anxiety purchasing a mattress online. This one was tagged with a price that would not drill holes in my pocket if I did not like it. Besides that, there was that assurance that I will be refunded, if at all, the product falls below my expectation during the 120-day trial period. Upon placing the order, the mattress was at my doorstep, faster than I had expected. Unfortunately, since I had just moved into a new house, my bedroom, which was in the upstairs, was not complete yet as there was few fixing going on. It was supposed to be ready in a couple of weeks. Therefore, I had to drag the box in the store to wait for the official opening of my bedroom! Opening the package Two weeks down the line, my bedroom is ready. Initially, I was worried that this mattress would have permanent folding issues because it remained like that, two weeks after delivery. It is now time to unbox the package and try it out. As said by other reviewers of this product, it comes with heavy and large box, perhaps to keep it safe during delivery. Upon opening the box, it expanded very quickly, and in a couple of minutes, it was eight inches high. Contrary to my imagination, there were no deformities or deficiencies arising from keeping the mattress in the package for several weeks and no chemical smell. When I unfolded it, it was upside down, and I immediately flipped it up. This would be much easier if we were two people, and honestly, it was not too much of a struggle to me, but enough to mention it here. Comfort The mattress may not be as soft as I had anticipated, but it feels supportive and comfortable. My back and shoulders are now not as stiff as they have been several months ago. Nowadays, I no longer wake up with some parts of my body numbed. It is good news that my lower back, which has been painful and tight for years, is getting better after changing to this product. Firmness While this mattress is no doubt comfortable, I was also concerned about its firmness. When reading reviews of previous buyers, I was somewhat left in limbo because very few people talked about the firmness of the product, yet it was what I care about most. Nonetheless, I choose to buy it despite the limited info and confirm the said characteristic by my own, perhaps within the 120-days trial period. Although firmness may be subjective, I can say the Sunrising Bedding mattress yielded to my body as a unit. The uniformly suspended springs each yield in a unique way, so it does not matter whether I sleep on my back, side, or stomach. As I was sitting on the edges, I realized that the support I am getting is sufficient, and so the mattress provides the kind of firmness I was looking for. Pricing I was looking for a mattress brand that could meet my health needs regardless of the price. Before getting this product on Amazon, I had placed an order for another brand that was going for $800. I canceled it. Most of the pricy mattresses in most online selling platforms are typically memory foam. I tried two of the best brands and I kept them for too long hoping to feel better but it never happened (I believe it was the toxic chemicals they use to make them fire resistan/retardant). I have tried them before, but after reading several reviews of innersprings, I choose to give it a try. Therefore, when I found this latex hybrid mattress that is designed with an outer foam layer and inner spring for a price less than $400, I delved into its reviews and made a decision to buy it. I have been using this mattress for six months now, and I can say it is a worthy investment. Of course, it took some time getting used to the innerspring hybrid mattress, but I have got used to it now. Overall, I am indebted to this purchase and would not hesitate to recommend others to consider buying and trying it out.

We all know how important a good night’s sleep is. With this mattress, you are going to sleep like a hibernating bear, it is that comfortable! You are not paying for a bunch of advertising and marketing costs, but, instead, you will enjoy an extremely well-made mattress from a conscientious, small start-up company whose mission is to build and offer top-quality mattresses at a FANTASTIC price! These beds are made using HEAVY GAUGE STEEL coils that are individually wrapped. This is truly the basis for a great, long-lasting, and sag-free mattress. Add to that, the fact that they use NATURAL LATEX and NO memory foam to make the cushioning in this mattress is impressive. It is a firm mattress, no doubt, but I purchased a 2 inch NATURAL TALALAY LATEX mattress topper from Sleep-On-Latex, which has a soft wool/cotton cover. My sleep-quality improvement was IMMEDIATE! Besides my all-latex mattress from years ago, I have not had this good of a night’s sleep until now. If you have problems regulating your body temperature while you sleep, this mattress should solve that issue because of the natural materials used to make these mattresses. I am SO glad I bought this mattress!

A very firm mattress, as a result it feels a bit like sleeping on a gym mat. I travel a lot and i've slept on a lot of different types of mattress and this ranks among the most firm. It doesn't feel like a low quality mattress though, it is just a lot firmer than the guide would suggest. It almost feels like sleeping on a high quality box spring with an inch of padding on the top. The topping is soft and springy and takes the edge off but isn't quite enough for me. There is very little give in the mattress from normal use. Mattress is single sided and the non-sleeping side only has a thin layer of material over the springs, so many of the reviewers who are saying they can feel the springs might just be using the mattress the wrong way around! I actually tried feeling around quite extensively for the springs and they can't be felt at all on the cushioned sleeping side. I know I have the option of returning the mattress under the 120 day guarantee, but I feel this mattress is actually quite a high quality and will last me a number of years. I will buy a 2" latex topper which I think will help a lot. Also the mattress my soften and 'break in' after a couple of months. I'll review again in 2 months ago. I would highly recommend to the seller that they increase the advertised firmness rating of the mattress. It is probably 9/10 based on the springs, but then the topped takes off 0.5 so maybe 8.5/10?

Update 2024. The mattress is holding up great! I DO use a 2 inch latex topper which was planned. I am now having pressure pain on my hip sides (due to age) and need 3 inches for the topper. My sheets barely fit now with the 2 inch one. My one and only complaint with the mattress is the ungodly weight of it. I can barely get my fitted sheet on because it's so heavy to lift. Anyway, its holding up so far. Again, in my opinion it is FIRM by itself, husband is still sleeping great on it. I bought this after reading all of the reviews and questions. I used to have a Waterbed, then a Sealy Backsaver, then a Firm Beautyrest mattress. Sealy was very hard and I used a 2" memory foam topper. Beautyrest was less firm but I still used a topper even though not really needed. I also bought a 2" latex topper for the Sunliving only because most of the reviews made this mattress appear very firm at least on the 8" and I like the "bounce" of a latex topper. The first night it felt hard but not bad. We only let it sit a couple hours before sleeping on it. That's without a topper as the one I ordered has not been received yet. After using it a couple of weeks now we've decided that we don't need the topper. I may try it though. I believe most of the reviews from folks thinking it's too hard have never really had any experience with a truly hard mattress. Most buy a mattress (even a firm one) with a pillowtop built into it so don't know how hard the actual mattress is. I would rate the bare 10' mattress an 8.5 on a scale from 1-10 hardness. My husband is a stomach sleeper and I sleep on my side. The mattress quality is very good. I do not feel any springs and it NEVER SMELLED. If I were to have a wish it would be that the edge had the extra support, although we're now used to the difference from our old mattress. Without a topper it's very much like the Beautyrest firm we had before. The cashmere top is very nice and it opened nicely on the bed but we had to flip it over so the latex side was up. We were both pleasantly surprised with how much we liked it. Amazing how they can compress these and have them open up to a perfectly looking mattress. If you buy one please give it a week or so before you decide if you like it or not. Ours is softer 2 weeks from the initial opening. The 20yr warranty is a plus and you can bet I'll use it if there is any issues. We love it so far!!

I have had this mattress for the past three days, and let me just say, wow! I am so pleased with this purchase. It took me this long to write a review because I just really wanted to try it out fully first. This mattress is truly an amazing buy. Getting it out of its package was super easy. I just carefully cut the plastic off the mattress, and it just expanded beautifully. It does say that the company recommends that the mattress be left for about a day or so to fully expand. And the quality? It’s super good! I feel like I bought such an expensive mattress with how luxuriously comfortable it feels. It’s even firm enough that it allows you to sit on the edge without toppling over. Its also firm enough to support my body but its softness just envelops me fully, as well. And if you’re a little bit unsure of the price, don’t worry about it! For all the benefits and comfort you’re getting, this is a really awesome mattress at such a great deal. It says that it’s built with independent coils that can make the mattress hold up for years, and I’m super excited about that. My previous mattress (a Setra) only lasted about a year and half before the sag became unbearable. I just have the feeling it won’t be the same with this one. Plus, upon opening the mattress, there wasn’t any rancid chemical smell. There might a very faint scent but it can easily be solved by putting on you sheets. It isn’t off-putting, at all. And it came unbelievably fast. It came in 2 short days after I ordered it. How great is that! Really, I have no problems with this mattress, and I’ll update you guys if I ever do. If you’re thinking of buying this precious gem, think no further. I highly suggest you go buy it now!

I will start at the beginning and try to be fair. I spent about 2 months looking for beds online. Did a lot of review research and just general research. Decided on a hybrid memory foam to try and avoid the sag problem we experienced with our hybrid pillow top. This bed was very inexpensive and that was one of my qualifications for buying a new mattress. I only took about 5 or 6 days for delivery. Delivery left it at the front door. It was wrapped in plastic and another zip up container. Half and half. This comes in a VERY HANDY duffle bag of sorts. There are a couple of straps on it for carrying and it moved in the house very easily. After looking at other reviews and pics these guys have packaging down perfectly. It was like carrying a giant 5ft long hot dog in a duffle bag. I actually wanted to pack my kids around in it after it was empty. But I'm old and tired. I slept in this bed for 2 weeks before I couldn't take it anymore. I was so sore everyday I woke up from the night of sleep/torture. This bed is really about the hardest bed I have ever slept on. Take a sleeping bag that you own, open it up, lay it on the floor, and sleep on just ONE layer of it. That's what it felt like to me. Every night for 2 weeks. I wish I could say that this was an awesome bed that was very comfortable. I wanted it to be that so bad. Returning this bed was incredibly easy. I tried to begin the process online but was getting a refund discrepancy for what I paid for it. Like almost 175$. I called Amazon and they had me figured out within about 10 min. They were awesome. They do not send someone to get your bed. You must donate it after receiving a refund. I feel for the person that will end up with this bed.....

I'm writing this review after the first nights sleep on this mattress. I usually don't get into reviewing things on line but I'm a little disappointed with this mattress as of now. Don't get me wrong I like a firm mattress as I sleep on my stomach and side but this one I would state as a ((Extra Extra Firm)) mattress. I like the price, the way it is made and the quality but I think they should have labeled it as just that -extra firm. I read all the reviews on this one and they ran from the best thing in a mattress to don't buy so by the time I was ready to pick a mattress I went with this one because of the 120 night trial pried and warranty although I don't think I can stand to sleep on it for 120 nights without making some changes. I was looking at all the memory foam mattresses and herd that over a 5 year period the memory foam brakes down and looses it's shape so I didn't want that. I"m going to give it a few more nights trial before I call in and see what they recommend to solve the problem. It might just take a few nights to soften a bit but as of now I'm not very pleased with my purchase. I know I could just buy a foam topper to soften it up which might help but then I might as well have bough a brand name higher priced mattress and been done with it. I'll update my review after I try to sleep on it for a while if it doesn't kill me first.
