I'm currently looking at couple of innerspring mattresses for my daughter, who is just starting out in her first apartment. Unfortunately, I can't get really good spec on either mattress, but would like some feedback about the coil count and other thoughts (based on what limited information I was able to find).
The first mattress is a Dutch Craft Comfort Collection Supreme PT mattress. The mattress/box spring set is on clearance for only $375, so this looks to be a really good deal, and my daughter says it's pretty comfortable. It's her #2 choice after days of looking at mattresses; the reason that it's #2 is that she says it doesn't feel quite as supportive as the #1 choice. I'm wondering if the low coil count might be the reason for that?
It's a queen size mattress, and the information from their website says:
• 1.5” Plush Quilting
• Knit Fabric
• 1.75” Plush Poly Foam
• 5/8” Poly Foam
• ½” Comfort Pad
• 312 13 gauge w/edge supports
• Hardwood Foundation
• 10 year Warranty (note: not sure if this applies to clearance items)
• 14.5” Mattress Height
The other mattress we're looking at (her #1 choice) is more expensive ($699) and is a Southerland Troubador Plush, queen size. I can't find anything about this mattress at all anywhere on the internet (maybe that's a special name just for Mattress Matters stores?), but this is the information from the tag in the store:
Hyper soft foam
High density firm foam
HD medium foam
Gel infused memory foam liner
Comfort pad
504 foam encased alternating coil innerspring
Comfort base pad
Performance grid steel foundation
12 year warranty
Clearly it has more coils, which could explain the more supportive feel, though I have no idea what gauge they are.
Without any more really detailed information, is there anything here that could help sway a decision one way or the other, other than price?
