Hi Pete,
In 1998 we purchased 5 sets of Serta Empire mattresses for a cabin we use as a retreat/family reunion in TN.
The mattresses were comfortable, but we got compliments on them, recently.
I don't have a model number - just the original receipt with the name.
We are now needing a replacement those mattresses and would like something comparable.
Can you direct us at all?
Sincerely, Tracie and Steve
Hi Tracie and Steve,
The 1990s was the best time to buy a mattress.
The industry had struck that balance of support, comfort and longevity.
During those years, it was nearly impossible to buy a bad mattress.
All of the major brands were competing with one another for quality & comfort.
Much has changed since then.
All of the name brands were sold to investors who concern themselves with profits only...not quality.
The product that came along, that made all this happen?...Memory Foam.
Your mattresses have no memory foam in them, which is why they lasted so long.
Despite all the advertising hype to the contrary, memory foam is the worst upholstery material ever invented...specifically designed to cause a mattress to need frequent replacing.
And as if that weren't bad enough, memory foam off gasses the toxic chemicals from which it's made.
The key to a successful purchase, today, is in avoiding mattresses made with memory foam.
We had been a Sealy/S&F dealer for many years, until 2013, when Tempurpedic bought them both.
A different investment group bought Simmons and Serta.
What had been great products are now nothing more than expensive junk.
All of this sent us to the industry trade shows, to find high quality alternatives.
The best value we found is from Wolf...the oldest mattress manufacturer in the country that has been continually owned and operated by the same family...since 1873.
They make a very good quality mattress that is an old fashioned two sided mattress..
The specifications are very much like what your mattresses have now.
The Wolf Brolynn Plush model is the most comfortable of them.

Thanks, Pete
VERY IMPORTANT:
Keeping your mattress clean and dry will increase its longevity.
We recommend our Organic Cotton Waterproof Mattress Protector.
