New! Capsule Mattress Reviews
Tempur-Pedic
Price: $2,100 for a queensize deluxe. Feel: An oddly beguiling combination of springiness and startlingly lush stillness. Velvety; steady and comforting. Drawbacks: People who sleep on Tempur-Pedics get addicted to them and can have trouble sleeping on regular mattresses, making hotel and romantic life complicated. (Tempur-Pedics seem to spur a high number of fights between couples.) Feels best with its native box spring, so it doesn't work with a platform bed. Read the full review.
Simmons Beautyrest Felicity
Price: $1,200 for a queensize. Feel: Very firm, but soft, owing to the pillowtop. A bed that seems to breathe from the depths of its very coils the words "you're safe here." Drawbacks: I can't recommend this bed because I couldn't get straight answers on it from Simmons. Read the full story.
Hästens
Price: $4,000 to $60,000 for a queensize. Feel: Completely unremarkable. The loose pillowtop flops around like a piece of french toast. Drawbacks: General ridiculousness. Read the full story.
