King Koil Mattress
14 CommentsIf you want to buy a new mattress, but are not in position to buy Simmons Natural Care or Sealy Posturepedic, do not worry, there are still plenty of solutions for you. King Koil mattress can be a fine replacement that will cost you considerably less. While you will not get the quality, you will get a decent bed that you can use for sleeping. If you need a cheap mattress, then King Koil could be your choice.
Bigger brands are using all the technology they can to make better and more comfortable beds. Of course, this also means that these products will be expensive. But that is the price we have to pay if we want the best. On the other side, if you buy a innerspring mattress, you will save your money. This is what King Koil offers. They are an old brand that is doing business for more then 100 years. But they are in the same spot as Miralux, Kingsdown and Englander, they didn’t pushed forward like Sealy, Simmons and Serta did and they are still focused on the old type of mattresses – innerspring. While bigger brands are developing memory foam and now latex beds, King Koil can offer you innerspring. Sure, for the last few years, they also started with the development of other types of beds, but they are too new at this and have to get some experience before they can offer high quality product. Just try to do some searches on Google for King Koil reviews and you will see what am I talking about. Their customers are not so happy, because the mattresses they buy sag in a matter of months. This is not always the case, of course, but there is a big number of disappointed people and that tells us something.
Three main collection are King Koil Spine support, Perfect Contour and Perfect Contour Extraordinaire. Other models are Comfort Sensations, Perfect Solutions and Comfort Sensations Elite. They are have different features and level of firmness. I suggest you visit a store near you to try them out, if you are interested in buying one of these.
Lets say a word or two about three main products. Spine Support mattress has a 3 zone innerspring coil units. There are 420 coils that are made from high tempered steel. There is a 2 and a half inch poly foam attached to the spring unit and on top of that is a half an inch layer of memory foam. This is not thick enough for good support, so I wonder why did they install this top layer at all. You will not be able to feel full power of foam since the cover is so thin.
Perfect Contour has more support, there is a 5 zone coil system installed and every coil row is laced with the closes row to connect all the wires. This prevents the motion transfer we usually feel when a person next to us is moving. Edge is strengthened with a high density foam.
Perfect Contour Extraordinaire offers luxury fabrics and is a top of the line mattress that King Koil offers. It is a reliable innerspring bed that costs a lot less then Sealy Posturepedic for example.
There are latex mattresses from this company that are worth looking at. The material they use is Talalay, which is the same thing other brands use. You will get these mattresses for cheap so if you are after that, check out what Natural Elegance has to offer. They are not all made out of natural latex, there are some models in this series that are made out of synthetic latex. Why did King Koil choose to give them this name, I can not say.
At the end of this post, I have to say that you can find better quality mattresses. But at this price, not really. You can put this brand in the same basket as Kingsdown, Miralux, Englander and Restonic. Visit your local store and try them out. If you are tight on budget, you may wanna buy one of these. You won’t be disappointed, but do not expect much from the start.

My husband and I bought a King size King Koil mattress. It is not even four years old yet. One whole side of the mattress has a large “sink hole” in it. We called the company and they sent someone out to look at it. They said the mattress was structurally defective. But because there was a small sweat stain on it our warranty was void. You can’t even sleep on the mattress the “cave in” is so large. So even though there is a serious defect, the stain gives the company an out for having to take responsibility for selling a defective mattress.

I have the same problem with my mattress. I also have a water stain on mine which I’m sure will void out the warranty. I wake with terrible back aches. I paid big bucks for this mattess and I don’t know how to get this company to fix my problem. This so called warranty is a rip off. I may call somebody in government to help me. I am really upset about this!

I purchased a King Koil Laura Ashley bed less than a year ago. Thank goodness our warranty allows us to replace the bed, which sags deeply on both sides. We had to take so many pictures: mattress, box springs, bed frame, etc. that I was surprised they didn’t ask for pictures of us to determine that we didn’t weigh 400 lbs. each, but alas, they said they would replace it. Now I’m worried that we will be in the same boat again soon. I didn’t realize I was purchasing a “cheap” brand, it seemed to cost enough not to be at the time.
Good luck to anyone thinking about buying this brand and a suggestion – sleep on it – there may be a better choice.

This is to Robin L.,
Like all brands King Koil makes different models from top to bottom. Laura Ashley is a fine line of products and not a Cheap Brand like you said. All bedding factories have a warranty on their products. There are situations that void warranties. Not having a center support, but in most cases if the customer puts one one their bed or frame. It will most likely coreect the problem. If the mattress has stains it will void warranty, etc. If king Koil did not take care of your problem. I could see your comments having merit; but since they did. I think youor comments are not warranted. -
King Koil makes as good a product as anyone else and It provides a Great Value and A Great Nights Sleep. In
these times the cusumer needs the Best Product for their
money and King Koil provides these products. -

I bought the Natural Response Night Rain model (latex and memory foam combo – queen size) in 2003 and have not had any issues with it. It took awhile for the memory foam to gas-out but other than that it has been very comfortable and durable. I did a lot of research before I bought it and feel I got a great deal. I expect to have it for many more years without any problems.

We purchased a Natural Response memory foam mattress five years ago, and within four months there were sagging issues in the spot where each of us slept. Calling, writing, or e-mailing was a waste of time. Because of small sweat stains on the mattress despite using a mattress cover, we were told that this voided our warranty. We are now sleeping in holes. Do yourself a favor, DO NOT BUY A KING KOIL MATTRESS! We wasted $1,100 dollars. Save yourself the trouble, buy another brand!

I bought an expensive King Koil mattress and I’ve had nothing but problems. from the first week our mattress sunk where my wife and I sleep. The company told us that the depression is natural and happens in all mattresses. It didn’t matter that the “depression” was twice as deep where my 100 pound wife sleeps compared to where I sleep. Our backaches will not go away and the owner of king koil, whom I got on the phone said this was not a warrantee issue as it was normal use within tolerances. DO NOT BUY THIS MATTRESS!

In 2007, my husband and I bought a ‘Perfect Solutions’ king-sized mattress set, (with requisite frame), from the ‘Jaclyn Smith’ line, (which is manufactured by ‘King Koil’). It was a top-of-the-line mattress; we paid some $3,000-thousand dollars for it. It is an innerspring with both latex and foam.
Three years later, we still can’t wait to get into bed. It has surpassed our expectations, and has proven to be worth every penny we spent… especially considering not only how much time one spends in bed sleeping, but the comfort upon arising sans backache, neckache, hip ache, etc.
Now, I’m not some naive consumer with tons of dough to blow. We did our homework, researching two years, before buying this bed. I can fully attest to the fact that ‘Mattress-World’ is the most fraudulent business in America today. There are NO regulations whatsoever when it comes to either the manufacture, or retail practices, of mattresses. I have been a party to numerous letters to various State Attorney’s General and on, and on, and on regarding mattresses that don’t live up to the claims the manufacturer’s make, as well as the totally worthless ‘warranties’ that serve only as a protection for the manufacturers, not the consumers.
So… my advice is to shop, shop, shop… research, research, research… NEVER pay full price… keep all your paperwork… put a major pad on your bed to keep it from staining (we put a one-inch wool pad on ours)… and expect to pay some big-bucks for a really good bed. The days of spending a couple-hundred for a bed are long-gone, unless of course, you WANT to wake-up with a broken back. Good luck!

I bought a queen-size King Koil in 1994. My 6-5 stepson sleeps on it now.
Sometimes when my stepson is staying at his mom’s house, I or my husband sleep on it if my husband is snoring loudly, and we both like it far better than the expensive mattress we bought in 2007. I found this site looking for King Koil, and despite some of the negative reviews, for us it’s definitely worth trying King Koil again. -

We purchased a King Koil, King, no flip pillow top mattress two years ago. At first, it was pleasant and comfortable. After 12 months, we noticed impressions, but figured that was normal. At 18 months, the side started to bulge. It has now collapsed with the foam band extending on my side some 2-5 inches due to some defect. I am sure it would also fail the “string test” as the impressions are deeper with a unconfortable hump in the middle.
I called King Koil and the warranty person sent me the warranty form. She didn’t seem to eager to help me and kept on saying it had to fail the string test to be valid.
I weigh 175 and my wife is 150. This is clearly a structural failure. Our dealer went bankrupt and now I have to go to the manufacturer personally. I have to pay $60 for an evaluator and possibly other charges – if I can find another dealer in town to return it when the King Koil truck comes around. My mattress came with a slight rub stain from the plastic being torn and it being slid on the truck. At this point, I think I will save my money and buy a better more reputable mattress.
Check your warranty and what constitutes a warranty issue before you buy. I strongly recommend looking elsewhere. I wish I had my old Restonic. They were great at warranty service.

I bought my Koil Koil pefect conture matress 3 years ago From 1800 mattress. MY wife and I are quite pleased with the mattress. FYI from lreading alot of the other reply’s I am wondering if you guys are turning your mattress every 2 weeks
The salesman who I purchased my king koil from and I believe the instructions that came with it said that you need to turn your mattress every 2 weeks.
