How to Buy a Simmons Beautyrest NxG Mattress

The Simmons NxG Series of luxury mattresses gets its name from the next generation memory foam the mattresses contain. This foam is made from a patented formula and has an advanced, open-cell design. It reacts to body pressure, rather than body heat, meaning you should not get hot while sleeping on it. Another benefit to the foam is that it has a quick recovery time, which is the time it takes the foam to return to its original shape. If you decide that a Simmons Beautyrest NxG mattress may suit your needs, you should familiarize yourself with additional considerations before making a final purchase.

      The first step in choosing a Simmons NxG mattress is figuring out your budget. Expect to pay anywhere from $1,700 to $3,100 for a queen-size set. The mattresses are MMAP products, meaning that the lowest price anyone can charge is set by the manufacturer. The method by which a retailer gets to that price may differ between retailers. Many big box retailers double the MMAP price so they can give you 50 percent off and another 10 percent if you use the store card.

      Try out the beds. Call bedding shops or department stores and see if they carry the Simmons Beautyrest NxG line. Ask what models they have on display. Since these are luxury mattresses, not everyone carries them, and by calling you save time and fuel.

      Start with the lowest series possible and lay on it for a few minutes and then get up and try the next one in the series. Your body will tell you which one it likes better and if you can't tell the difference buy the cheaper one and save the money.

      Wrap up the sale. Remember that accessories cost money and high-end bedding needs high-end accessories. This mattress set is heavy, and you are better off buying a heavy duty frame instead of using the flimsy "free" frame that may bend and damage your mattress.
