Serta Pillowtop Mattress Review Summary

Most Viewpoints reviewers had good things to say about the Serta Pillow Top Mattress, but with a few exceptions. What members liked was that the Serta Pillow Top Mattress was affordable. Many of our reviewers said they woke up feeling refreshed after sleeping on this Serta Mattress and noted a reduction in back pain and leg swelling symptoms. But despite the positives, some reviewers felt that the Serta Pillow Top was not durable and began to breakdown at anywhere from 3 to 5 years after purchase. The chief complaint was that an indent began to form in the middle of the bed, regardless of whether anybody slept there or not. Want to keep looking?

We bought our mattress at sams club, looking for a quick inexpensive mattress. Only paid $277 for a queen size. Its not the softest but by far not the hardest. good value for the money.  For our next purchase, hopefully a few years down the road, I would get the foam top that they offer.  Sams also... review »

    We thought we were getting a top of the line mattress.  We bought the most expensive one they had.  We started feeling like it was caving in in the middle, so we tried flipping the mattress.  It didn't work, we turned the mattress over and bought a tempurpedic foam topper  and it did not help. ... review »

I'm a mother of two busy children and cherish my sleep.  Ditto for my husband.  That's why we did a lot of research before buying our Serta Pillowtop Mattress for just over $1300.  We did online research, went to several stores, and tested a lot of mattresses before making our purchase.

Like several of the reviews on Viewpoints, we were very happy with our Serta Pillowtop Mattress for the first few months.  However, it wasn't too long after our purchase that we noticed a small hill forming in the middle of the bed and two crevasses on the sides of it.  We rotated the mattress thinking that...

The mattresses from Serta and Simmons are basically the same.  Mattresses have the same basic components and there are certain things you should look for depending on your comfort level.

A mattress is made up of several important features:

Coils
The inside is the most important part of a mattress when it comes to supporting the body.  The core of a mattress is made up of coils.  The number of coils should correspond with how much support a mattress gives.  That is, a mattress with 300 coils will provide less support than a mattress with 700 coils.  Generally speaking, the more support you want...

The comfort of my Serta Mattress has been unbelieveable comfort and good nights sleep.  I would tell my friends  and family to try one out for their own good pleasure.  And, the style and color of the mattress itself is beauitul in design. A pillow top mattress that never needs to be turned over or around is of great help to me, becausae I'm not able to handle turning a mattress over, so I never need to worry about that again.  I believe this mattress will lasat me for the rest of my life time. So, it truely was a good buy for me, because of the quality and comfort.  I enjoy a good nights... review »

I was really skeptical when I first saw the price tag of this mattress. I had recently looked into buying an equally expensive bed that was just air and I had heard such great reviews about. So blame it on bad fortune when I was not approved to buy this "miracle air bed". Well, the tables turned when I found the Serta Pillow Top Mattress. I only had to lay on it one time to realize I was floating on a fluffy white cloud. I mean seriously, it was comfortable and relaxing. My body almost didn't know how to react. Signed, sealed and delivered the same day. That night my husband and I had the best,... review »

My husband and I recently bought a Serta Perfect Sleeper Pillowtop Grandis.  We both had been sleeping with an extra pillow under our knees for back relief, without much relief! It would take me 30 minutes or longer to go to sleep due to pain.  Now we can lay down with support under our backs and knees as the memory foam conforms to the contours of our bodies!

 I do not ever want to be without my mattress.  We go on "short" vacations because we are uncomfortable sleeping and anxious to get back to our sweet comfortable mattress.

 I would highly recommend this product to anyone with Arthritis,...

Serta used to be a name that, for us at least, stood for quality, durability and worth the money. However, all that changed after only 3 years of ownership, then several springs broke down on the mattress top causing it to sag dramatically resulting in pain! Initially, this mattress was the most comfortable mattress we have ever known, not now! We expect a good mattress to last at least 5 - 10 years, or more. We won't be buying another Serta.

Bought this mattress three years ago and my husband and I are not large people by any means and it is already time for a new mattress.  We flipped and rotated more than we were supposed to and you can see the indent in the middle of the mattress and no one even sleeps in the middle.

I recently received a Serta Pillow Top Mattress as a gift, and it's one of the best gifts I've ever received! So, so comfortable. I sleep so much better than I ever thought I could!

I can honestly say that I have found the perfect mattress.  I have been sleeping on my Serta Perfect Sleeper Pillow Top Mattress for almost two years.  It still looks like it is new, and feels like I am sleeping on a cloud.  A good night's sleep is paramount to me, and it seems that after good sleep I can function much better in my daily life.  I wake up feeling quite refreshed in the morning.  My mattress is firm enough for great support for my aching back.  I had back surgery about eight years ago, and suffered until I found the perfect mattress for me.  It is not too firm that it causes...

I was amazed at how comfortable and affordable it was. It is great for lower back pain and leg swelling. 

 Sleep is necessary for our bodies to build up energy reserves and regenerate body cells and tissues. During sleep, your heartbeat and breathing slow, growth hormones peak, muscles relax, and your body temperature lowers. Sleep is a sophisticated process carefully regulated by our brain with valuable restorative properties for our physical and mental health.

Buying a mattress is a decision that you should carefully think about. Since most people replace their mattress every seven to ten years,...

My husband and I purchased this mattress to replace a very high-end mattress my mother-in-law had purchased as our wedding gift.  She works at a mattress store and had been able to procure a $3000 mattress for fairly inexpensive.  Unfortunately, by the time we needed to replace it, we no longer lived near her and needed to find one of our own.  We ended up purchasing the Serta Pillowtop Mattress and LOVE IT!!  We didn't need to spend $3000 to get a mattress that delivered the same comfortable sleep.  Hooray!
