In 1876 they began mass producing mattresses as well as in 1900 they patented the wrapped coil spring. These springs were originally wrapped yourself in the mid 1920's a Simmons engineer designed a machine that can rapidly coil wire and wrap it.

Simmons market the Beautyrest Black separately in the other Beautyrest mattresses and it doesn't come in their comparison charts nor on the main website. It's the highest-end Beautyrest and it has a web site of its own. The Black even offers silk, wool and alpaca comfort layers as well as layers of memory foam and natural latex. It uses a slightly different pocketed coil design from other mattresses. This is known as the advanced pocketed coil design plus it involves interspersing both softer and firmer pocketed coils around the main pocketed coils. This approach, according to Simmons, helps limit motion transfer and supplies better conformability.

You will find eleven different models of Beautyrest Black mattress and these are split up into four comfort categories. These categories are Firm, Plush, Pillow Top, and Plush Pillow Top. The models differ predominantly from the type and amount of fabric and foam used.
