Buying a new mattress can be time consuming and confusing for consumers. We want to help make the process more enjoyable for mattress shoppers. When buying a mattress, a lot of questions come up in the journey to find the perfect comfort level. Once you find the right mattress for you it is important to switch your attention from finding the right mattress to finding the right retailer to purchase from. You want to find the mattress retailer that will offer you the best price.

Now it is time to hit the streets in search of a mattress with the perfect comfort level. You went and tried a couple mattresses at a store and you finally found…the one! The sales person gave you the name of the mattress and a price. If you are a smart consumer you won’t purchase the mattress from the first retailer you talk to. When shopping for a mattress it is a smart move to try beds at a mattress store then compare prices online.

Now it is time to compare prices because you want to make sure you get the best bang for your buck…right? This is where things get tricky. You start your research online and wait…you can’t find the name of the mattress you like anywhere except for the store you just left…further research…and now taking a deeper look at the specifications of the mattress and it seems like there are a lot of comparable models out there. How can you be sure you are comparing similar models when the names are different? If you are like most consumers out there you just want some real answers.

Good news.

Sleep City is here to help.

Buying a new mattress is a big investment that can benefit you and your health in many ways. Sleep is a key part of a healthy and active lifestyle. In fact did you know the average person who lives to be 75 years old will spend 25 of those 75 years sleeping? Sleep affects how you feel; it affects your productivity, your relationships and your quality of life. A mattress has the potential to encourage a great night sleep or rob you of the much needed sleep you need to be your best you. At Sleep City we look at sleep differently than our competitors in the industry. We not only care about your health in relation to getting the best nights sleep but we also want you to get the right mattress at the right price. At Sleep City there is no jumping through hoops. We are straightforward and have real answers. We consider our team to be sleep experts not mattress salesmen.

So why are there so many different names for mattresses?

In the mattress industry, mattress companies want to confuse you and make price comparison more difficult. Some say that mattress shopping is harder than shopping for a car. We tend to agree.

Most industries have one name for their products that stay consistent among all retailers but in the mattress world the names are different from one retailer to the next with little to no difference in the products. They do this to protect retailers so they can sell their own line and make consumers think their line is unique from the rest. In most cases it is the exact same mattress with literally a different tag sewn onto the side.

You can avoid this trick by looking at the interior makeup of mattresses online but this can be difficult and time consuming. Not all retailers display the interior specifications and those that do, don’t always display how much of each material is used in the mattress.

You may be wondering if there is an easier way to compare prices. You may also be saying, “I wish there was an easy chart with mattress names of popular Simmons Beautyrest mattresses and the corresponding names across major retailers.”

Well you are in luck. Yes, there is an easier way to compare prices and yes, we have a chart for you to use. We want to make price comparison shopping simple so you know you are getting the best price.

First we will cover the Simmons Beautyrest Black models, which is our most popular line. We will also review Simmons Beautyrest Platinum and Platinum Hybrid models.

Simmons Beautyrest Black names at all major retailers vs. Simmons Beautyrest Black names at Macy’s:

Fortunately the Simmons Beautyrest Black Collection has the same names across all retailers accept for Macy’s. Macy’s Simmons Black models are only slightly different but the difference allowed Macy’s to use a different name for their Black Collection. The Macy’s Simmons Black models are identical in the makeup of the foams and springs. The only slight difference is the fabric on top of the mattress. Macy’s uses a cashmere blend fabric on top and all other retailers use modal yarn. Because Macy’s was able to make this slight difference with the line, they are able to charge more. Really it’s a marketing trick. The word “cashmere” sounds more luxurious than “modal yarn” which makes the average consumer think that mattress is better than the rest. In reality modal yarn is stronger than the cashmere blend and therefore will last longer. When people hear the word cashmere, it seems like a great benefit however most people will not experience the feel of the cashmere outside of laying on it at the store because sheets will always cover it. So you can decide if the cashmere is worth the additional investment.

Simmons Beautyrest Platinum and Platinum Hybrid

Disclaimer:

  • The chart displays all if not most of the names for Simmons Beautyrest Platinum and Platinum Hybrid models.
  • When reading the chart, the names in one row are all the same mattress. For example, the Platinum Badger is the same as what Sears calls the Kimi and what dealbeds.com calls the Amberlyn.
  • Some groups of names are used by multiple retailers.
  • In doing our research we choose the websites and retailers that were ranked the highest on Google.
  • For the groups of names that don’t have a retailer or website assigned we couldn’t reference a reliable retailer/website online. The groups of names that don’t have a retailer assigned are most likely used by a brick and mortar store that doesn’t have a website.
  • Also a few websites don’t have all the models.
  • US-Mattress has 8 names for their Beautyrest Platinum line instead of 4, like all other retailers. For example the Sunland Firm is comparable to Sleep City’s Foxtail Firm, the Toffee Lux Firm is comparable to Sleep City’s Foxtail lux firm, and the Sunny Day Plush is comparable to Sleep City’s Foxtail Plush.

Before comparing prices we suggest going to your local mattress retailer and lying on multiple beds to see what is best. After you’ve found the one ask the sales person for their price then give us a call at 877–246–7533 for the lowest price. We’ve saved countless customers thousands of dollars on the mattress of their dreams, and we hope we can do the same for you.

We highly recommend the Simmons Beautyrest brand as it is the most innovative brand in the market. They have been pioneering industry advancements in support and comfort since 1870. Simmons was the first mattress company to introduce king and queen size mattresses in the 1950’s and in 2008 invented technology that fused memory foam and pocketed coil leaving the rest of the industry scrambling to follow. Because of the continual innovation and leadership in the mattress industry, Sleep City has chosen to exclusively offer mattresses from Simmons making us the largest Simmons exclusive online retailer in the country.

We hope this information and these charts will be helpful in your mattress buying journey. If you have any questions about Simmons mattresses, the mattress industry, or questions about prices, doesn’t hesitate to call us at 877–246–7533. If you know the price you are willing to pay make us an offer here: MAKE AN OFFER.
