Best bed I have ever slept on!

published

We purchased the Super King Crown Jewel bed (medium firmness) and it is the most comfortable mattress we have ever slept on! Usually I am woken during the night by my husband moving in his sleep. However, since we have been sleeping on the Crown Jewel, I have not felt him move once during the night - I am finally getting through the night without being woken up. Given how crucial sleep is to our wellbeing, this bed is one of the best investments we have made in our health. From an aesthetic perspective, it is a beautiful piece of furniture - the velvet trim on the base is luxurious and elegant.

Purchased in February 2021.

Disappointed for a significant purchase

published

We purchased a Crown Jewel mattress 3.5years ago and regularly rotated and aired it, as per the recommendations. Neither of us is overweight or very tall and, due to overseas work, in fact the bed was only used by two people together for 2.5 years! The mattress has sagged significantly and is causing major sleep disruptions. Sealy's website says mattresses should last for 8 yrs; clearly this is not the case with this purchase. Based on our experience of this mattress todate, we would not recommend this mattress at all.

Purchased in August 2021 at Harvey Norman for A$3,900.00.

This is the best sleep we’ve had in years. This gorgeous bed supports my hips and lower back while still giving great comfort. My husband who also has aches and pains, is sleeping through the night too. I wish we had invested in this bed sooner!

Really Disappointed

published

Purchased this mattress one year ago and it’s rubbish. We previously had a top of the line Sealy mattress purchased in Hong Kong when we lived there. This original mattress was manufactured in Thailand and it was excellent. We had the original one for about 7 years and this was the reason we went for a new top end Sealy. What a disappointing decision. Paying top dollar and getting a substandard product. It has saggy spots both sides and causes aches and pains in our bodies. We have tried multiple pillow types and paid many hundreds trying to get a good nights sleep, to no avail.

Purchased in March 2021 at Harvey Norman.

Excellent quality bed

published

We have owned this bed for about 6 months now and have found it to be incredibly comfortable. It's very supportive but with a soft top. Good for side sleepers - would highly recommend.

Super lovely and luxurious bed

published

Purchased the Crown Jewel in queen size. Have now been sleeping on it for a week and can honestly say that it is a super lovely and comfortable bed! It's on the softer side (which is perfect for me), however if you prefer a firmer mattress, I would not opt for this one. I really love it and after sleeping on less than ideal mattresses for the last 10 years, I can definitely see that it's going to be a worthwhile investment and have already noticed an improvement in my sleep, and aches and pains. 10/10 :)

Purchased in December 2021.

A great nights sleep

published

I have had my Queen size Crown Jewel Royal Coronet Medium Plush for 4 years now and it is still just as comfortable as when I first got it. Excellent range of comfort levels available. The medium plush is perfect for me, plush feel but still supportive. Exceptional quality fabric and materials means it's durable with no loss of comfort. I highly recommend the Crown Jewel to anyone with the range of comfort levels you will find the perfect one that suits you. Well worth the investment in a good quality mattress like the Sealy Crown Jewel. Keep an eye out for the sales.

A whole new experience for us

published

We bought our Sealy Crown Jewel ensemble a few months ago now. I have always used a hard mattress and was a bit unsure how I would adapt to a softer one. I have found the new bed very supportive and have found my sleep has improved. I would highly recommend the Sealy Crown Jewel mattress to promote a good nights sleep.

Sleep like royalty!

published

2 weeks in and we couldn’t be happier with our new Crown Jewel sealy bed!! We purchased the ultra plush from the range which I cannot recommend enough if you are the type of person who enjoys a soft, “sleep on a cloud” mattress that is still VERY supportive. I have always chosen plush mattresses much to the dismay of my partner who enjoys a firmer one. Well even he is now a plush mattress. Sore necks and backs have disappeared and we have both experienced some of the best undisturbed sleeps we’ve had in years. From start to finish the buying process was so easy. The sealy staff at Myer Toowoomba were extremely knowledgeable about the product and fantastically helpful without being pushy.

Dreamy Night's Sleep

published

I purchased my Sealy Crown Jewel ‘Allure’ ensemble from David Jones in April 2022. This was to replace an 18 year old Sealy double bed ensemble, which was showing signs of sagging beginnings
I topped the new bed with all new - Sealy mattress protector, a luxury Mini Jumbuk Sleep Therapy Wool Mattress Topper, Sheridan cotton sheets, plus two Creswick Merino wool blankets.
From the moment I climb into the bed each night, through to waking up, it is just a dreamy experience! Highly recommend.

Purchased in April 2021 at David Jones Retail Stores.

Service and feedback from Sealy was very good

published

I purchased my Crown Jewel Coronet double mattress from David Jones delivered February 2018. Went back to the store regarding the lump that has developed despite utmost care as per instructions and have been told Sealy will need to inspect at a cost of $165 upfront, only returned if a fault is established (by Sealy) with no chance of a refund, just "fixed".

This turned out to be incorrect and my mattress was picked up and inspected - fault found and returned within a week for no cost. Good communication throughout.

Purchased in January 2021 for A$2.00.

Love my Sealy crown jewel

published

I thought I had a problem with my new Crown Jewel bed, when it got lumpy and uncomfortable. After contacting Sealy, I was relieved how quickly they arranged for my mattress to be inspected. They told me that what I was describing was not normal – they took away my mattress and did a warranty repair - all on the same day. Now my bed is like new and is fabulously comfortable. Thank you Sealy for your prompt and professional service.

The Perfect Sleep. Love It!

published

Recently I purchased a Crown Jewel mattress. I am delighted with the luxurious comfort and support this mattress offers. My husband has had several leg operations so finding a mattress that offered the support he needed was essential. It is an absolute pleasure to go to such a comfortable bed at night, knowing we will have a good night's sleep and wake refreshed. The mattress is also so beautifully made it's a shame to cover it up with sheets.
