Mattressmom, it sounds like it is the cover but I can ask Dave for you since I wanted to call him and tell him I bought a Brylane Latex Topper and ask him about one more Latex Core that is about a 39 ILD for the other side of my bed to switch with my 36 ILD that is averaging a little less than a 35 ILD.  It has some give on it and is very comfortable and more padded than my prior cover and looks like a real mattress and is less white than the other color. It looks like unbleached natural cotton so is slightly tannish. I love how the sides have protection before you zip it up since the prior cover kept catching onto the Latex.  This cover is sturdy and very nice....

My Brylane Latex Topper arrived and I opened it up to air it out and the smell is mild compared to a topper I was sent that had a glue seam and was 100% natural Talalay Latex that smelled so bad for several days. I will air it out a few days before trying it. It definitely is as soft as my Overstock topper and is fragile too since it just ripped.  It is a little dirty but look like once I air it out it will be the right size for my bed. If it is a little big I may have to cut it so it will not bunch up since the 1.5" latex topper Dave sent me bunched up bothering me being slightly too big for the one I just sent back. But the one Dave sent me was sturdier and much nicer but had that glue...

kimmcgov, I can't wait to hear your update on your topper after you air it out. I think some of the smell could be the packing material and then I guess everything outgasses to a certain extent with some material outgassing over the lifetime like Formaldehyde in pressed wood that I can not tolerate and others for a short amount of time like freshly cut pine wood.  I am happy to hear there is no glue and the topper is one piece since in the picture it is two pieces glued and I prefer one piece like my too small Overstock topper.

Again I slept well with my 1" Overstock topper over my 39 ILD Latex core over the 36 ILD latex core over the 44 ILD latex core over the slat box. So I have a feeling after my topper arrives, I will want one more 39 ILD latex...

BeddyBye, I kept the package to the Overstock Topper and mine does not say Talalay and says Natural Latex.  Mine is very soft and I only like it inside my zipped up cover over a 39 over a 36 over a 44. I am still thinking of asking dave to exchange two of my 36 ILD's for two more that are almost a 40 ILD since I like my bed very firm with a tiny bit of cushion on top.  I like the 1" cushion. I am hoping the Brylane topper can replace my Overstock Topper since I was hoping it would b sturdier....
Re: Side, Back or stomach sleeper? Tall or Average or petite? Like firm or soft beds? - cloud9

Mostly a side sleeper, but occasionally I roll over onto my back. I never stomach sleep--it hurts my neck. I like a firm mattress with some cush on top to relieve pressure points, but when I press down I like to feel good solid support underneath. I'm 5'5", slender and small-boned.

Now here's the weird part. Most of the people on this forum liked their mattresses softer at the shoulders. I really like it firmer--almost hard. If the mattress feels soft it makes my back ache across the shoulder blades.

My lower back has really been bothering me since I had to stop taking ibuprophen (it was upsetting my stomach) and my "firm" mattress just didn't feel firm enough, so I stuck a couple of sheets of remnant carpeting under my 1" memory foam topper, a really flat feather pillow and some 1/2" HR foam. It's a little hard in the hips,...

LOL. Deep fried donuts! I love the smell of talalay latex! At least it's not fattening. :-)

Deep fried donuts. Tee hee... Some people might find that a selling point. I wonder if they add that smell or if that is the natural latex. All the other plain latex pieces I got from Sleep Comp had absolutely no smell at all. The natural Dunlop six inch cores and the 2" 36 ILD Talalay were all from Sleep Comp - but they might have been made by Latex International for all I know. I'm so confused about all these manufacturers and suppliers.......

My Overstock latex topper is Talalay process. Blended, I'm sure.

Kim, Thanks for letting us know how soft the Brylane toppers are. I will compare the toppers to my 36 ILD latex cores and my Overstock soft topper and take a guess at the ILD. Maybe they are on the lower side of softness from the range the Natura Customer Service lady gave me.  I would let them air out for several days and then try them out with only one on top (maybe that is all you will need) and then two on top and decide then if you should send back one topper and buy another one firmer that is 1" also.  My topper has not arrived. I only ordered one since I really only like a tiny bit of cushion. The Overstock topper I have now is a perfect softeness for me...

I just put the topper on the bed underneath the Natura fleece wool topper. I'll start with just one and see how that feels. Them maybe—or not—add the second one...

By the way, the topper is actually a little wider than our bed. It measures 61 inches across. This is a first, as usually companies cut them smaller— to save money, I guess....

Lynn, which FloBeds cover do you have? Is this the description? - "Euro Stretch-Knit Cover made with Organic Cotton quilted to naturally Fire Resistant 100% Pure Mt. Shasta Wool (1 inch before quilting). Fire Resistant without chemicals!" The picture looks like a brownish, unbleached cotton. Is that the newer style cover or the older style cover?

When I search for "cover" in Twin Long on the right side of the FloBeds page - about 12 options come up and I am trying to sort them out. I am thinking about getting one of the FloBeds covers for my son's Dunlop core at some point.

Right now he has a Twin XL six inch medium Dunlop core with 2 inches of 36 ILD Talalay on the bottom in a cheap 8" deep memory foam velour cover from eBay. It works for him but the cover might not be that sturdy if we...
