Is Simmons a Good Mattress?

Simmons is a mattress brand that first began in 1870. Whilst that length of time might make some brands aged and even complacent, it has done the opposite for the American mattress maker. Over the last 140 years, Simmons has not stopped innovating and their byline is “we don’t sleep until you do”.

Dial•a•Bed, proudly stocks Simmons mattresses in all of our stores nationwide and on our online offering, but why exactly did we choose this mattress brand to be on our preferred brand list? We did our research and tried and tested a range of Simmons mattresses to make sure they met our high standards of quality, comfort, and durability. The good news is, Simmons not only met our expectations but they exceeded them.

 

The History Of Simmons Mattresses

The Simmons Bedding Company was created in 1870 as a mattress company that aimed to pioneer industry advancements. In 1900, James Marshall patented the wrapped coil spring which sparked an idea at Simmons - instead of building these coils by hand, which was a slow manual process, why not develop a machine to do it better and faster?

That’s exactly what John Franklin Gail, Simmons’ top engineer did in 1925 and the Simmons Pocketed Coil spring machine was born, paving the way for many of the signature Simmons mattresses over the years.

In 2008, Simmons invented a hybrid technology that fused memory foam and Pocketed Coil, introducing the Beautyrest NxG mattress.

 

Why Choose A Simmons Mattress?

In all of the best Simmons mattresses, you will find three elements or features that enable the brand to stand out from its competitors;

#1 - Super Pocketed Coil Springs

We know that Simmons invented the Pocket Coil Spring machine but how does that relate to the types of mattresses they create today? Simmons believes that their pocketed coil spring technology is, n fact, the key to undisturbed sleep. Features of this system include:

  • Springs are not joined at the top or bottom but are free, individual spring systems
  • Simmons uses durable, non-allergenic fabric encasements around each individual spring
  • This technology allows each spring to adjust individually to the weight and shape of your body

#2 – Motion Separation

Again, the key to undisturbed sleep is the ability not to be disturbed or woken up by your partner as they turn over. The pocketed coil spring system delivers motion separation which means the coils underneath you adjust and move with your weight only and do not bounce underneath you. That is the same for your partner, so when they move you will not be bounced around or moved at all.

#3 - Conformability

This is Simmons ’catchphrase when it comes to cushioning your body at every turn, literally. Thanks to the fact that the pocketed coil springs are individually wrapped in soft yet strong fabric, they work independently to cushion your body and react individually to your weight and movement.
