why is it there appears to not be a Stearns and Foster page?

Stearns & Foster is owned by sealy. Doesn't mean they can't be separate pages... it's just noone has taken the initiative yet to do the work. ---J.S (T/C/WRE) 19:53, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Cooperative?

I see no evidence this was ever a cooperative enterprise, it appears he made a few patents and then purchased a company, leasing patents out to other markets. It may have been the latter action that someone confused with it being "cooperative" I think. I'll post this and wait for a response in a few days and take it out of the category if there is no objection from anyone ~ User:joel.a.davis 30 Dec 2007

Considering it has been some time since I first brought up the issue of whether this could be considered a cooperative enterprise, so I will update the article accordingly since no one has any idea one way or another, it may be wise to err on the side of too little information.

Outdated, inaccurate

As of March 2013, Sealy Inc. was acquired by rival Tempur-Pedic International. The new entity is Tempur Sealy Inc.
