Re: Help With Finding a Mattress - Lynn2006

Mccldwell, Thank you for letting me know about the good pillow article that I read after registering for what looks like a great online Washington Post newspaper.  I copied it below with the link and hope others register to fully utilize the services of this great site. I am glad you let me know about it. I found a few other articles that I found interesting.  I just finished working at 12:45 AM from early this morning and this site ws the perfect relaxation for me to get my mind off of taxes.  I always knew my pillow was important and that is why I used to bring it with me on all my business trips when I used to travel for business. That is why I am always trying to find the perfect pillow height for my side sleeping and petite size ever since my very old latex foam...

Nick, both Flobeds and SleepEZ have the choice of natural Tatalay Latex or blended Talalay Latex.  The processing is the same and the cleaning they do of the latex is amazing since the blended latex does not bother my allergies.  The blended is a combination of synthetic and natural latex from a rubber tree that they blend in a mixture with air and go through the same processing as the natural Talalay Latex.  The Natural Talalay Latex cores are 3" thick while the blended Talalay Latex Cores are 2.8" thick.   My Flobed latex kit mattress is a combination of both natural latex cores and blended latex cores. I tried to stay with all natural but I needed firmer than a 36 ILD and needed some 44 ILD latex cores to make my bed as firm as I like it so I had to get some blended latex cores that surprisingly...

Sleeptight,

Yeah, I remember your posts because I used to be a 'regular' but haven't posted here in a long time until a couple of days ago.  (Refer to my post, in the end I'm very happy with my current bed with the topper configuration I'm using).

Can I be honest here?   Look, I'd be pretty surprised if Hastens did not respond by giving you a new mattress, but quick.  The bed is astronomically expensive and if a problem arises, since they don't do returns I would expect nothing less than A-1 service  I'd be much more surprised if you told me you got great service from one of the "S" companies since everyone knows that there have been problems with used and soiled mattresse being sold as "new," and there has been much negative press.

However, I totally disagree with you that you cannot comment on Hastens unless you have owned one. ...

And, they call it Talatech. Actually it holds up very well.

After lurking here and other places and doing lots of research - I finally recieved my latex mattress today. I'd like to add to the discussion by sharing my experiences with a company I haven't read about on this forum and about Dunlop latex. We went with a three layer 100% DUNLOP (yes, Dunlop, not Talalay) mattress from Savvy Rest via The Natural Sleep Store. We got a queen size with split firm (ILD 40), medium (ILD 35) and soft (ILD 30) layers. The cover is made of organic cotton quilted to organic wool. The total was $1849 including shipping - more than SleepEZ or some of the other online retailers but less than other organic latex mattresses.We got free UPS shipping through The Natural Sleep Store (which would have been $219 from Savvy Rest directly) plus a gift certificate for $160.00 that could be used...

The mattress topper was supposed to be delivered Tuesday, however it was rescheduled for delivery on Wednesday. I have had a few nights sleep on the 4" natural latex topper, and I can say the quality is exceptional, customer service is polite, however not very educated, and the owner, who I spoke with is a very nice guy. I am struggling with severe back problems. My back is built like a 12 year old's, I have a bulging disk, and two pinched nerves. The back pain was so severe I couldn't hold a job, nor get through the day with daily activities. I will update my thoughts and opinions in a few weeks.

Thank you for responding Lynn. I believe I need a softer bed, from what I've tried out, and I've tried, literally, tons of beds over the past week. With my pinched nerves in my back, after about 20 minutes on a softer bed, a small portion of my pain was relieved, while a firmer bed didn't help. So I ordered some 16-18 ILD latex, which will be here Tuesday. ALL the "soft" labeled latex beds I tried, were all extremely comfortable to me, and I am pretty sure my decision to go with a soft 4" piece will help. If not, I can just send it back, while I have a UPS business account with significant shipping discounts, so there's not much of a loss to send it back.


Just to make sure I totally understand, "natural" latex is made without chemicals or synthetics, while Talalay latex is likely to...
