Stearns & Foster Estate Collection

While it offers a lower price point, Estate mattresses still include many of the same premium features as the more expensive collections.

Estate mattresses are designed using a complex, multi-layered system of premium gel foam, a breathable fabric cover with TENCEL, and a dual-stage IntelliCoil® system. The side of the mattress is crafted from thicker materials that ensure quality edge support.

Estate Rockwell

The Estate Rockwell is the higher-end option of the two Estate models. If you ever wake up with back pain, this is the mattress for you. It’s designed for indulgent comfort, with premium materials like the Indulge Memory Foam that target your pressure points. The Estate Rockwell is great for all sleeping positions and body sizes.

Along with the Lux Estate, the Lux Estate Hybrid is Stearns & Fosters’ other mid-range mattress. The Lux Estate Hybrid is best for average-size sleepers of all positions.

The mattress comes with a layer of micro coils: short, soft metal coils that allow the mattress to contour to your body. The Cushion Firm is a good stomach sleeper mattress and back sleeper mattress who require extra support. The Plush and Ultra Plush are the best mattress picks for side sleepers.
