People have been tirelessly searching for the best and most comfortable mattress for years. Tempur-Pedic, Kingsdown, Select Comfort, and Healthsmart by Simmons are some of the most recognizable names in mattresses, and some of the best sellers too. Beds with these brand names are known for their hypoallergenic components and control switches. What’s funny about the expensive bed market is that there are no conclusive studies about what surface is better for the most productive sleep, it simply has to do with individual preference.

Hastens Vividus

The Vividus—made by Hastens—is the most expensive bed in the world. Its name is Latin for “Full of Life.” Sleeping on the Swedish designed Vividus bed has been described as “sleeping on a cloud.” All that sounds pretty appealing until you see the price tag of $59,750. That’s a far cry from your average $700 queen-sized mattress.

If you’re looking to buy a little closer to home, then check out America’s most expensive mattress—the E. S. Kluft Beyond Luxury Sublime.

World's Most Expensive Mattresses - E. S. Kluft Beyond Luxury Sublime

Each Kluft mattress is handcrafted by a bedding artisan and the Beyond Luxury Sublime is no exception. Made with a blend of cashmere, silk, exotic wools, high-quality horsehair, certified organic cotton and all-natural Talaly latex, the most expensive American-made mattress is both truly luxurious and truly comfortable.

The mattress features a tissue pick design to offset the cream-colored jacquard damask and the surface is emblazoned with a large Wedgewood blue medallion for a stately, royal look.

For those without 44 grand to spare, Kluft offers beds at a variety of price points—some below $1,000. Best of all, they even offer a 20-year warranty.

without sleep your whole system shuts down, so whats wrong with looking for the best sleep you can get? Think of all the great things you can do on a really good mattress!!! If I had the $$$ I would buy two and push them together to make a super bed.

some people can really spend
a lot of money on things that don’t really matter in life.

Agreed, I question some of the stuff I buy but sleep is the most important thing (well, top 3) so that makes a $33,000 mattress justified.

Good sleep is essential. When you are 18, a cheap bastard of a mattress does not matter so much. As the years pile up, a good mattress becomes imperative.

I belong to the average-income group but I spent a considerable amount of money on my mattress which I paid for in cash. People spend money on gadgets, jewelry, makeup, clothes but I value my night’s sleep very much. I’ve had the most amazing, comfortable sleep for the past 3 years of my life. You just can’t put a price on that.
