Pros: good independent coil suspension, comfortable, thick mattress.
Cons: A few occasional very minor movement noises.

We've had the Simmons Backcare mattress for about a year now. It has been very comfortable with just the right firmness and softness for us. We bought the queen middle grade pillowtop style set.
My brother bought the same one in a king size and he was ok with it but his girlfriend, after about a month, complained that it hurt her back. So they took it back and bought a different brand.

Pros: firm for several years
Cons: big craters developed several years into ownership. Didn't last as long as the warranty.

We bought the mattress 10 years ago and rotated it faithfully as suggested by the salesperson. We were told that the mattress had a 10 year warranty (which he explained they would give us a pro-rated amount for early failure). This mattress had us sleeping like babies for about 8 years. The last two have been unbearable and a real pain to sleep on. We're buying a new mattress, but not Simmons.
