Sealy Mattresses started in Sealy, Texas in the 1880s, and was acquired by Tempur-Pedic in 2012, making a new company called Tempur-Sealy International. Sealy is one of the largest mattress manufacturers in the world.

Two distinct offerings are available from Sealy, both a direct-sale bed in a box mattress line and a multi-tiered complex line only available through third-party sellers.

First, Cocoon by Sealy is a premium memory foam bed-in-a-box mattress that ships compressed, straight to your door. It comes with free ground shipping, hassle-free returns, and a 10-year warranty. In-home delivery is not available. If you aren’t satisfied, you have a 100-day period to exchange or refund, pick up your mattress, and donate it to charity.

For the Cocoon line only, financing is available through the Cocoon by Sealy Credit Card from Wells Fargo Bank. There are 0 percent interest options and a standard APR of 28.99 percent.

The Cocoon memory foam mattress line is the only direct-sale option. The company’s other mattresses are sold through third-party retailers both online and in local stores.

Innerspring, memory foam, and hybrid mattresses are available with Queen size models between $499-$2,499. In all, considering comfort levels available, over 24 different Queen size models are offered. Sealy mattresses are made in a “good,” “better,” “best” tiered system for each construction type. The "good" option is called Essential, the "better" option is called Performance, and the "best" option is called Premium.

Sealy Posturepedic mattresses and the technology behind them are a cornerstone of the brand. The technology targets and reinforces the middle third of the mattress where the heaviest part of your body rests. This is available in Sealy hybrid, innerspring and foam lines, in both the Performance and Premium collections.

See our breakdown of Sealy’s options:

Response Innerspring Collection: Choose between pocket coils and regular coils; an air foam, gel foam, or gel memory foam layer; different edge support options; and plush, cushion firm, firm, or ultra firm comfort levels to find yourself a comfortable mattress in this category. Additional features are added as you move up in quality (and price), from Essential to Performance and Premium. Posturepedic technology is available for the Performance and Premium mattresses Sealy offers in this category.

Conform Memory Foam Collection: Choose between the Essential, Performance and Premium options which all include a dense base layer of SealySupport Gel Foam and a comfort layer of Sealy ComfortSense Foam. Performance and Premium mattresses have an added Chill Gel Memory Foam comfort layer to help you feel cool when you sleep. Different mattress covers and firmness levels are available, along with Posturepedic technology for the Performance and Premium models.

Sealy Hybrid Collection: This collection combines the soft support of foam mattresses with the encased coils of Sealy's spring mattresses. The entry-level Essential includes a Dura-Flex Edge support system, Sealy Response Pro Encased Coils, and a comfort layer with Sealy ComfortSense foam that conforms to your body. The Performance and Premium models come with 20 percent more coils for Posturepedic support, high-quality Sealy Immersion Advanced Memory Foam with Chill to keep you cool, and cushion firm, firm, plush, and even softer ultra plush comfort options to choose from.

Sealy also has its own line of adjustable foundations, as well as bedding, hypoallergenic pillows, mattress pads and toppers from American Textiles, plus crib mattresses and dog beds with a 5-year satisfaction guarantee.

The Good

  • Options
  • Warranty

Options

Sealy employs an easy to understand tiered model for each type of mattress. It is easy to understand the different quality and support levels and identify a good match for your budget. Shoppers with mid to large budgets will be able to find a good match with Sealy.

Warranty

Current mattresses are warrantied for up to ten years. A 10-year limited warranty is pretty standard for most nationwide mattress brands. This is good, especially considering the low price points of the Essentials collections.

thumb_down

The Bad

  • Price
  • Direct Sale

Price

Although it is nice to have so many options to choose from, only one queen size model comes under $500. Given the high-quality pricing of this mattress line, it may be out of many shoppers' budgets.

Direct Sale

Only the Cocoon bed-in-a-box line is available directly from Sealy. It would be nice to get the great shipping benefits and guarantee offered from Sealy with each purchase. As it is now, your purchase, trial or return policies, and shipping are left up to the retailer who sells you the mattress. You can buy Sealy mattresses at most third-party furniture stores, but also at big nationwide chains like Costco, Macy's, Ashley HomeStore, or online marketplaces like Wayfair and Amazon.

The Bottom Line

You can easily choose between a good mattress and a mid-level or a high-quality mattress within each of the Sealy memory foam mattress, coil, and hybrid lines. The company makes the distinction easy to understand. You also get a variety of options when it comes to support, pressure relief, and comfort levels, so you should be able to find an option that best fits your body and how you sleep.

Although there are multiple quality options, the lowest price for a queen size mattress is $499. The only option under $500 is the Sealy Essential Collection from the Response innerspring line.

LeAnn Baytown, TX

I currently sleep on a Seale hybrid mattress. It’s okay. But I’m still looking for my “right’ mattress. I think the foam top makes me super hot, and it’s supposed to be cooling. 🙁. Also, I’m starting to sink more down into the mattress, which is weird, because I’ve lost 40lbs since we purchased the mattress. And of course our trial period is way over.

In my opinion, they do have excellent product. There are so many options to pick from which is very important. Having to pick out a good mattress would have been more stressful had they not have several mattresses to try out. That made my experience a lot better. I received all the help I needed and whenever I needed it. They never got frustrated with me when asking a lot of questions. They just smiled and helped me to the best of their ability. I love that there is an option to shop in store and shop online as well. The one thing that I could complain on a bit would be the fact that they need to work on grading people at the door when they come in. They also need to greet the customers from time to time on the sales floor to make sure that they don’t have questions or need help. I got ignored when I shopped there and it was very frustrating. So this could easily be fixed.

Sealy serves as our best mattress brand. Almost all mattresses in our home are Sealy. And you can definitely tell which ones aren't. In terms of quality of sleep, comfort and firmness, Sealy is definitely among the best in class. Going forward, I wouldn't buy anything else.

I have had a sealy posturpedic bed which I have used for the. past. 5 years. I. think this is a great bed for someone who wants a firm mattress compared to other companies. This. is a thick mattress compared to other companies as well. Overall I think it sleeps wel, does not seem to. trap a lot of heat in the summer or get too cold in the winter. After 5 years there is only minimal amount of wear noticeable on the mattress. I would recommend this type of mattress and the company to a friend.

The mattress is 18 years old now. While I've kept it covered and taken good care of it, it's still very comfortable and doesn't show signs of wear. Well worth the money we spent.

My first bed I purchased after my waterbed was a Sealy mattress. I loved this mattress as it provided comfort and was easy on the joints. The mattress lasted us over 10 years before we had to replace it. Would highly recommend a Sealy mattress.

They are quality mattresses to be sure. However, this is just personal preference but stay away from pillow top mattresses. They are wonderful for a time. but after about 30 they just killed my back. Mostly because of the indent after only 6 months. Haven't had any issues with firmer mattress types.

We love our Sealy mattress so much and have been with the company for years. The model we have now is a nice mixture of springs and foam. The new all foam trend the other brands have do not work for us. We are traditional spring mattress people. Wouldn't use another brand.

we have owned a few mattresses by Sealy. we paid a little more than others we had looked at but were assured that the quality of what we had chosen was worth it. I think that for the most part we made a good choice as they held up quite well for quite a few years.
