Posturepedic Exquisite Claremont Medium Review
The Posturepedic Exquisite Claremont Medium is well made but still lacks the comfort and support of similarly priced products. Nevertheless, it uses a durable spring system and comes with a 10 year warranty.
Purchase and delivery
This mattress can be ordered online, and delivery is available Australia-wide (see delivery times in our ‘Delivery’ section further down). It can also be purchased through any of Amart Furniture’s 69 stores across Australia.
Visually, the Posturepedic Exquisite Claremont Medium presents with plenty of class and presence. It uses a black, grey, and white colour combination (as with many other Sealy mattresses), along with a nice brand label.
Comfort and support
The top cover of this mattress consists of a ‘Staylight Foundation Cover’ and a ‘SmarTex Fabric’. This feels thick and durable, and is designed for air flow. This cover sits over a layer of Gel Infused Visco Elastic Foam.
This comfort layer absorbs body weight fairly well, but there is some unevenness to it. Furthermore, the ‘separation’ between the comfort layer and spring system is noticeable and not deemed as desirable by our review team.
Not surprisingly, we rated the Posturepedic Exquisite Claremont Medium as a ‘medium’ feel and a 6.5 / 10 on the firmness scale. Please note that our firmness ratings are just a guide and they do not necessarily relate to comfort.
The spring system used in the Posturepedic Exquisite Claremont Medium is a ‘ReSTII’ spring system that supposedly provides ‘3 levels of staged support to keep you aligned’. Whilst this is a rather vague claim, this spring system feels noticeably flimsy and unstable – characteristic of many Sealy mattresses.
As you would expect, general balance and spinal support is compromised, and motion transfer is noticeable. This is disappointing, considering its cost.
The finer details
In terms of raw build quality and craftsmanship, this mattress does rate well. Its side handles named ‘LiftRight Corner Wrap handles’ indicate Sealy’s attention to detail and edge support is sound thanks. to its ‘Coil Inspired Edge Support’.
As we alluded to earlier though, partner disturbance will be an issue, and may be worse with larger sized occupants of the bed.
Please note that we do not recommend the Posturepedic Exquisite Claremont Medium to be used with an adjustable (electric) bed base. Here is our full list of mattresses that are compatible with an adjustable bed base.
Available sizes
The Posturepedic Exquisite Claremont Medium is available in 5 sizes (king, queen, double, king single, and single) so it should suit most sleeping arrangements. Here are Australia’s standard bed (mattress) sizes in 2021.
Final verdict
The Posturepedic Exquisite Claremont Medium looks the part, but its overall level of comfort doesn’t live up to its price tag.
