Stearns & Foster Technology

Stearns & Foster Cassatt Lux Estate Firm Euro Pillowtop

In 1846, Stearns & Foster was founded by businessmen George Sullivan Stearns and Seth Cutter Foster, a dealer of cotton goods in Cincinnati, Ohio. They produced cotton wadding and upholstery for horse carriages, never intending to manufacture mattresses. It didn’t take long, though, for Stearns & Foster to become one of the oldest leaders in the mattress manufacturing industry.

Stearns & Foster realized that creating an ideal luxury mattress takes time, care, and skill, so they hired only certified master craftsmen to handcraft each mattress. They used the finest-quality durable materials available, emphasizing detailed stitching, embroidered borders, hand tufting, and personal signatures. These traditions are among the many this 175-year-old company is known for and continues following.

In 1993, Stearns & Foster merged with Sealy Incorporated and, eventually, Tempur-Pedic in 2012. Tempur Sealy International Incorporated, based in Lexington, Kentucky, is now the largest bedding manufacturer in the world. All Stearns & Foster mattresses are handcrafted here in the United States of America with craftsmanship, high-quality and comfort as their focus. The group is committed to improving sleep every night with their tried-and-true, time-tested brands, including Stearns & Foster, Tempur, Tempur-Pedic, Sealy, and Sealy Posturepedic.

Stearns & Foster Innerspring Technology

All Stearns & Foster beds are built on their patented, nested, continuous-coil-within-coil design support core and are topped with high-quality memory foam and TEMPUR-Indulge memory foam materials to provide the perfect balance of comfort and support.

It takes four master craftsmen around eight hours to complete one Stearns & Foster mattress from start to finish – at least twice the amount of time it takes to manufacture other luxury mattresses. This is why every mattress is hand-stitched and hand-signed once it is complete.

Stearns & Foster’s exclusive IntelliCoil system consists of twice-tempered, individually wrapped titanium alloy coils that conform to the curves of your body, along with a foam-encased edge that contains a border rod to provide optimal edge support. The cone-shaped inner coil is designed to provide the necessary support needed for all types of sleepers, so the more pressure or weight applied to this coil, the more needed support it provides.

Stearns & Foster’s newest innovation is their exclusive IntelliFlex hybrid system that adds a layer of memory foam to the top of each innerspring. This creates individual innerspring pockets that perfectly conform to each sleeper’s unique shape and allows an incredible level of airflow to deliver a cool, comfortable sleep environment.

Stearns & Foster also offers minimized sagging, the ability to withstand extreme heat and quality control. All features are certified through various daily testing procedures.Stearns & Foster Mattress Lines

Choosing a Stearns & Foster Mattress

When it comes to buying a new mattress, there are many options to consider. It can be overwhelming, but the most important thing is finding the right mattress for your sleeping position and body type.

Sleeping Position

The three main sleeping positions are stomach, side, and back, but many individuals are actually combination sleepers.

man sleeping on his side, side sleeping A medium-to-plush mattress such as the Stearns & Foster Reserve medium tight top, Stearns & Foster Lux Estate plush or medium euro pillow top are recommended if you are a side sleeper. Each option will properly support your spine’s natural alignment while contouring to your hips and shoulders to provide pressure-point relief.

If you are a stomach sleeper, a medium-firm to firm mattress is recommended to help keep your spine appropriately aligned throughout the night and your hips or shoulders from sinking in too far. The Stearns & Foster Lux Estate Hybrid in firm or the Stearns & Foster Estate in a tight top firm or euro pillow top firm are strong options.

If you are a back sleeper, you also require a medium to firm mattress that provides adequate support and spinal alignment. The Stearns & Foster Lux Hybrid in a firm or Stearns & Foster Lux Estate in a medium tight top or firm euro pillowtop are well-suited for back sleepers.

Body Type

Those who are lighter weight may enjoy a softer mattress. For those who are also side sleepers, you may prefer the Stearns & Foster Lux Estate plush or medium euro pillowtop mattress. For those who are stomach and back sleepers, you may prefer the Stearns & Foster Lux Estate medium euro pillowtop mattress.

For those who are heavier, you may prefer a firmer mattress that aligns with your sleeping position. If you are a side sleeper, you may prefer the Stearns & Foster Reserve medium-tight top mattress. For stomach or back sleepers, you may prefer the Stearns & Foster Lux Hybrid in a firm mattress.

Personal Preference

The final factor when selecting a mattress is your own personal preference. Although a medium may be the safest choice when choosing a mattress, you may like the feel of a plusher or firmer version. Your body will help you decide what feels best to you.
