>>Given the need for faster response and softness with good support, I'm at the point where I'm pretty certain we need to consider either a good innerspring with a good latex topper, or, most likely, an all-latex mattress.
Seems like a reasonable conclusion after so much trial and error.
>>We both liked the PLB Nutrition a lot, but I think my hips and belly drop a bit too much for proper alignment for long-term comfort. After many combinations, my G/F fell in love with the PLB Nature with the PLB 2" latex topper. It's a bit too soft for me, of course, but it seems to give us a starting point.
Too soft for him... I agree, the 36 ILD core lets the 4" comfort layer sag:

Also, now that your body is sore, you may be noticing that your relative's spare beds are not so comfortable... i.e. you'll notice sleeping a few nights on them.
The basic mattress functional model is comfort layers over support core layers. The comfort layers contour to and cushion your body, relieving pressure points and distributing your weight a bit over the support core layer. The support core layers hold up your weight so that you do not sag and strain and become eternally internally sore. The most basic support layer is the floor......

Yes, I agree that the intent of individual coils is to contour to the body, but there is more to consider than just their profile response.
Specifically, how the body's weight is distributed (pressure relief) across the coils, and in particular, across neighboring coils when some coils are carrying much heavier bearing points like shoulders and hips or butts than that of their immediate neighbor coils. How well your body weight is distributed across the individual coils...

We were told that you don't want more than a couple inches between slats, so you might want to consider a solid foundation. Our local mattress manufacturer sold us a bunky board along with the mattress that works great and doesn't add much height.
Good luck!

- I don't believe I have read anything from anyone who had a traditional innerspring mattress that developed a mold problem. Yes it might be possible that given "high humidity" or storage problems, etc, that anything can develop mold, but I don't believe under normal wear and tear, that traditional innerspring mattresses create a problem
- There have been a number of reports, both in this forum and others, where Sleep Number type of mattresses can develop mold. This...

I went and looked at what I believe is the bed you have (Luxury Performance Organic). I had been focusing on pure Latex, but the one you have seems to be a good hybrid mix of various layers. I was REALLY surprised to see the horsehair. We had a friend who had a PURE horsehair mattress, and it was like sleeping on a concrete slab. Since this is only a layer, my assumption is that the stiffness of the horsehair is modified by the various layers of latex. What function does the horsehair provide that either a high ILD layer of latex or a layer of...

While comfort undeniably is and always will be the number one contributing factor for the perfect mattress, I do feel that there is an often overlooked aspect: and that is how the mattress contributes to your health. Remember that you spend a third of your life (!!!) in bed - let that sink in!
While comfort alone may be perceived as healthy, there are other factors that should be considered even if the mattress is comfortable, such as what the cover of the mattress is made of and what material is used inside (PU/Memory Foam/Latex/etc.). Just as an example: there are many chemical components that MAY have an effect on your health through off-gassing (basically tiny particles of the material that are pushed into the air as the material inside the mattress decays).
I have made it my mission to have the most natural environment at home,...
