They advertise white glove service, or removal of your old mattress, as part of the deal when you buy a new one from W Hotels The Store. But in the DC area, at least, they use 1-800-Mattress as their delivery service. Those guys will not take away an old mattress if it's stained. Just an FYI, turns out white glove service only applies for relatively pristine old mattresses, so don't count on removal service actually happening if you buy from them. |
A follow-up: W Hotels was responsive to my complaint about 1-800-Mattress not removing the old mattress. W Hotels arranged for the old mattress to be picked up by 1-800-Mattress a week later. So problem solved, & "white-glove" service WAS provided in the end. Stand-up move by W Hotels , much appreciated. |
I was wondering for people that got the normal sized box spring, if it will look too high for this frame im planning to get from ikea. I also have a 5" feather bed coming in the mail. Or should i not even get a box spring and put it directly on the platform bed? |
October code, please! I am hoping to buy a new set for my mom. |
Ouch......just did a search and found a 20% off code, L3DXM..........I hope somebody finds a 35% code soon, that extra 15% is kind of a big deal on something this big. |

Put it directly. These mattresses run really really thick. Well. That goes for my pillow top anyways. |

You can find the new October code from this thread: http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/hot-deals/870669 |
Just the usual word of caution to mattress shoppers: just because this is a decent deal (see my post below linking you to an essentially the same mattress sold at Macy's for the about same price), does not mean that it is the right deal for you. When it comes to mattresses people's comfort preferences vary WIDELY, so many mattresses that work for some people will cause excruciating pain to others. These are good quality mattresses in the Simmons Classic line (not Worldclass, as has been incorrectly noted in some of the previous threads). This does not take anything away from the mattress, however, since there is no direct correlation between the amount of money that you spend and the comfort that you achieve in a mattress. At the same time, I find the W mattresses to be far too soft and not sufficiently supportive for my taste and, personally, much prefer the extra firm and cushion firm mattresses in the Simmons Worldclass line with 1260 coils and a memory foam layer (the memory foam layer on these mattresses does not have the slow sinking feeling which I hate of regular memory foam mattresses and is significantly more durable than regular foam, so it reduces permanent body impressions that make mattresses uncomfortable). Again, this does not take anything away from this deal -- just make sure that you'll be comfortable on these mattresses or it won't matter how good of a financial deal you got. Now, the number of coils in these mattresses indicates that it belongs to the Classic line. Simmons uses the coil count in the Queen sized mattresses(here is a link to Simmons' website, which confirms this) to decide whether a mattress belongs in its Classic versus Worldclass lines. As such, a Queen W mattress has 825 coils, which puts it in the Classic line. To confirm, just take a look at this Simmons Beautyrest Classic "Adrian" Plush Mattress Set sold at Macy's -- it is a Beautyrest Classic with 800 coils. I've previously spoken with Macy's and Simmons and they've confirmed that this is essentially the same mattress as the W mattress with 25 fewer coils. I've also tried this mattress at Macy's and one at Nordstrom and don't see any difference (as I posted above, they are way too soft for my taste though and I feel like I don't have enough support but that's always subjective). As you can see from this link taken directly from Simmons' website, a Simmons Worldclass mattress has 980 coils in queen sized mattresses. W Hotels have the "worldclass" label on them because their queen mattresses have 825 coils, which puts them ever so slightly above the Classic line (by 25 coils). In other words, in this case the label is somewhat of a marketing trick to cause people to think that they are getting more mattress for their money. Please note that Macy's price is very similar to the price at which the W mattresses sell and further discounts are pretty easy to obtain off the Macy's price with things like 20% off giftcards. Again, this doesn't take anything away from this deal or from this mattress and if it is comfortable, you won't care about the label on it. P.S. |
bmammons said:I stopped by Mattress Firm tonight just to find out about the "similar" mattresses they had. Basically, they had the Simmons Beautyrest World Class & Simmons Beautyrest World Class/Exceptionale. In reality, as I showed in the post above, what allows Simmons to put the "Worldclass" label on the W mattress is the fact that they put 825 coils in a queen whereas their traditional Classic line has 800 coils (the Worldclass line has 980 coils in a queen). So, the extra 25 coils take this mattress outside of the definition of "Classic" and the next category up is "Worldclass," which is where Simmons puts it even though the coil count is nowhere near the coil count found in other Worldclass mattresses and it does not have the foam encasement found in Simmons' Worldclass mattresses. Hence, it is somewhat of a marketing trick on Simmons' part, which causes a lot of people to conclude that they are getting more mattress for the money. As you can also see from the Macy's link above, Macy's also sells essentially the same mattress for about the same price as the W price after the discount. You can also get additional discounts at Macy's through things like 20% off gift cards but that requires you to know how to use Dealpass, which is YMMV. |
