Find out more about the Serta bed brand
Serta has been building beds for over 90 years. And they’ve been doing it well, based on their award-winning beds. Moreover, they are endorsed by the Chiropractic Association of South Africa and are one of the leading mattress manufacturers in the United States.
The company started out in America and soon expanded into the international market because of its local success. With a whole bunch of “industry firsts”, like the creation of the plush bed (yes, Serta beds did that) and the development of the continuous innerspring system, Serta is at the forefront of innovative sleep technology.
We reviewed Serta beds and this is what we discovered
Our in-house bed experts reviewed a variety of Serta beds. Then, just to make sure they weren’t biased, we compared notes with what our customers had to say about Serta. And you can rest easy, both the experts and the customers loved Serta! Here are some of the main features that stood out:
- Flip-free sleep technology
- Fantastic support, right up to the edge of the bed
- The mattresses don’t become too warm at night
Let’s take a closer look at the benefits of a Serta bed.
You don’t have to flip your Serta mattress
This is definitely one of the main selling points of the Serta mattress. You are way too busy to struggle with flipping your mattress over every couple of months. And with most of the Serta beds we tested, you don’t have to! Simply rotate the mattress every other month to make it last for as long as possible.
Speaking of longevity, you might be wondering…
How long do Serta beds last?
All of the Serta beds we tested come with a 10-year service warranty. This is a good indication that the bed will last that long. And that is great, seeing as Sleep Foundation recommend that you replace your mattress every 6 to 8 years. So if a Serta mattress lasts 10 years, you score 2 to 4 years before you have to replace it.
Serta beds have the super-supportive Continuous Coil system
You can lie anywhere on your Serta bed and you’ll feel the support. When we looked into the reason for this fantastic support, it came to light that Serta has a unique, continuous innerspring system (award-winning and patented) that offers support right up to the edge of the mattress. It is manufactured from high-tempered steel and encased in wear-resistant padding to help the spring retain its form and function for longer.

Temperature regulating foams & fibers
Another feature we really enjoyed was the knitted ticking cover on the Serta mattresses. It felt cool to the touch and definitely helped to regulate body temperature at night. And in the higher-end Serta beds, the uppermost foam layers are infused with cooling gel to aid in keeping your core temperature just right.
