When you purchased your current mattress, did the warranty play a role in your decision sealy posturpedic mattressto buy? If you’ve bought a Tempur-Pedic mattress recently, you likely have a 25-year warranty with 10 years full-replacement and 15 years pro-rated. If you find your warranty confusing, or believe it was improperly explained at the store, you’re not the only one! Tempur Sealy will be making a switch back to a 10-year full-replacement only warranty on all Tempur-Pedic, Stearns & Foster, Sealy Optimum and Sealy Posturepedic mattresses purchased after March 1 of 2014.

So what do these terms mean, and how will the change affect your next purchase?

  • A full-replacement warranty is pretty straightforward – if your mattress has a defect within the specified time frame, you’ll receive a replacement free of charge. Tempur Sealy’s new warranties set this window as 10 years, and no longer.
  •  The pro-rated term of your warranty takes effect after the full-replacement period is up. You won’t get a whole new mattress free during the pro-rated final 10 or 15 years – your refund will be based on factors such as how long you’ve had the mattress.
  • Why is the change beneficial?
Maybe a 25-year warranty sounds better than a mere 10 years, even if the last 15 years are pro-rated. But has your warranty really saved you money, or did it mislead you about the life of your mattress? Tempur Sealy hopes the shorter full-replacement warranty will clarify these issues for customers, and give a better sense of mattress life expectancy.
