    Stay away from this brand. The mattress will sag prematurely. They say they offer a 10 year warranty but that's bullshit because they deny virtually every claim. Terrible waste of money.

    This Stearns and Foster Estate firm mattress is the worst mattress I’ve slept in my whole life! I can’t believe it costs $2300 (twin). I just received it and it has 3 holes in the quilted top. It also sags in the center so bad that I’m laying on it right now and I feel sinking at least 2”. It’s firmer on the edges and totally sagging in the middle. This company should be shut down, I used to feel way more comfortable in my old Zinus firm mattress that costs $250 on amazon. They should be ashamed of making this garbage and charging thousands for it. Shame on you Stearns and Foster.

      Both my wife and I have developed low back problems for the first time ever. This is a terrible bed. We are shopping for a new bed & getting physical therapy.

      I purchased Stearns & Foster mattress at Raymour & Flanigan within six months. The mattress was terrible. It was sagging on both sides. I told him. They came out. Raymour & Flanigan replaced it so my second mattress is doing the exact same thing sagging on both sides and the person who replaced also told me that Stearns and Foster is not the same company that it has been and for sure they stink. Not worth. I’ll let money wasted.

      On Jan 7, 2024 I purchased a S&F Estate SOFT TT Queen mattress. There is nothing soft about this mattress. Since day one I have woken up with body pains after 2-3 hours of restless sleep because the mattress is worse than sleeping on a concrete slab. I complained for a long time with store telling me there's nothing they can do because it's past their 2 week trial go buy a topper which I did and didn't help at all. Customer Service was no help. Tried to make it work but nothing did. After a year someone finally said what do I keep my thermostat at and said 63 degrees. They said that was the problem I had to keep the room temp at 70 or higher. What???? I would roast at that temp and what do you do in the summer with the A/C on.

      I want to know why there isn't a label on the mattress stating that because of the materials in the mattress you had to set temp at least to 70 for it to become soft. Very misleading to me for I would have selected a different mattress not waste $2,700. I struggled to save on something that gives me everyday pain. After awhile it effects not only your health but your mind from lack of sleep. I am 70 years old and want to know what happened to either the salesperson telling you or better yet the company itself who supposedly knows about their products and the materials they use. When looking at the mattress online nowhere does it say to keep high temp in room. It's an expensive lesson to learn to not trust a company unless you do extensive research on their products. If I could give Stearns & Foster a minus 10 I wouldn't hesitate to do so. Goodbye Stearns & Foster. Never to mention your name again.

      We purchased a new Sterns and Foster King Size Luxury Firm Mattress six years ago from Macy’s. I am 120 Ibs, 5’5’’ and my husband is 168 Ibs, 5’8”. We hoped the mattress would last a long time. But 2 years after we used the mattress, our nightmare started. I had back pain and neck pain every morning when I got up. The pain is getting worse that I have to sleep in our guest bedroom bed, which has a 50 year’s old mattress. We called Macy’s Custom Service Department, and they told us “the sags have to reach 1.5 inch to qualify for warranty”. Now the sag is more than 1.5 inches, and Macy’s offered to refund the sales price, but due to inflation, we will be out over $700 to replace the mattress. The 10-year warranty states that the purchaser will not be charged to repair or replace the mattress. Don’t buy Stearns and Foster mattress! Don’t buy mattresses from Macy’s!

      Do not buy a Stearns and Foster mattress. It will kill your back and Customer service employees in Escalation dept are rude and will not help you, they will put your complaint on hold and will take time in contacting you back at all, it’s sad, I asked for a return and refund 2 weeks now.

      Bought a Stearns and Mattress King Size, EXTRA FIRM, just because it is a brand that "supposedly" is the TOP of the line, Hotel level, yada yada yada, and 3 out 10 years later, total garbage!!!! I am 215lbs man, which this type of mattress should last waaay beyond the warranty of 10-yrs. My lower back is now totally ** waking up with Sciatica, Neck is totally ** as well, causing numbness to hands in the middle of the night.

      Bought this mattress from PC Richards in Jersey City, which failed to inform me that the warranty is not from PC Richards, but from the manufacturer. Of course no one informed of these dumbass policies that it has to sag 1.5+ inches for the Warranty to be honored. Had some techs come out, inspected, told me straight up, you won't get any store credit because Stearns just won't honor it and they are the worse when it comes to dishing out money back for their total GARBAGE mattresses!!!!

      Called up Stearns, rep tells me there is nothing wrong with the mattress "per their policy", which they can shove where the sun doesn't shine for all I care, because my back and neck say otherwise!!! Conclusion, PC Richards are con-artists scam ** that omit the more important details about this mattress manufacturer's dumbass Warranty policy, and Stearns, just can't express enough anger and blatant greed mixed with zero ** given about costumer satisfaction. I hope Stearns goes bankrupt and chokes on the money I paid them for this mattress!!

      We ordered directly from Sterns and Foster thinking we were getting a good deal. They said $200 off an estate mattress and a $300 Visa card. Comes to find out they forgot to mention it is one or the other. Mattress is fine but felt their pricing and marketing is very deceitful. Beware.

      We had a very unfortunate experience with a mattress purchased from The Brick and manufactured by Stearns & Foster. We purchased a Queen Stearns & Foster Cedar Falls LXCF ET mattress in January 2021. The mattress has developed a significant sag in the center, slightly over 4 inches without anyone lying on it. I am 5'6" and 150 lb, and my husband is 6'2" and 210 lb. Our size should not be an issue. The sag causes me to consistently roll toward the center and toward my husband, which has resulted in hip pain.

      I filed a claim, believing the sag exceeds the normal wear-and-tear limit stated in the Limited Warranty. Stearns & Foster denied the claim due to a stain. We have maintained the mattress properly since purchase. We have used the designated Stearns & Foster box spring, a Gore-Tex protective cover, and a sturdy bed frame with the required center support and five legs.

      The company is not honoring its Limited Warranty for a premium product that failed in just over three years. While I am aware that stains are mentioned in the warranty, I fail to see the connection between a stain on the mattress and the structural sagging of the mattress that cost over $2,000. I caution potential customers against purchasing this product, as the company does not stand by its quality.
