Hello,

I stumbled upon this site while researching a new bed for my Wife & I.  I never realized how complex a decision choosing a mattress could be, but it makes sense to buy a good mattress and thoroughly research the available options.  Has anyone had any experience with this particular bed?

We have an Original Mattress Factory store very near our home, in Mentor, Ohio.  It appears from the short time I've been on this site, that a latex bed is the most popular option.   Does anyone have any other suggestions for any other Mattress stores in the Mentor (Cleveland), Ohio area?

Thanks in advance for any advice, it is greatly appreciated.

Steve

I would call him first (as I would with any outlet before I visited them) and see how you feel. My experience is that he can be quite "helpful" but tends to "control" the situation and doesn't like it a lot when his opinions are "challenged". I would avoid the Spring Air mattresses he carries and if he has a wide enough range of Savvy Rest ... then it would be very useful for testing ... even though I wouldn't buy them unless their value was comparable to other options you have.

With a comittment to yourself not to buy anything I would think he may be a good place to test different layerings.

If the Natura outlet also carries a range of their mattresses, they to would also be a very good place to visit.

These two ... along with The original mattress factory, which likely has the best value of any of your local outlets, are the 3 places I believe would be most valuable in terms of learning what type of mattress would be best for you.

One other that carries an all latex mattress that may be useful for testing is http://www.parkandvine.com/ which carries the White Lotus mattresses.

You should have enough choices with these to get a very good idea of the type of layering and construction that is most suitable

The Natura mattresses look promising, and it appears that the "Sleep Source" is in my area.  Thanks again for all your help, I would have made a serious purchasing mistake had I not found this site.

Hi,

After countless hours of research, laying on countless beds, talking to many salespeople in stores, and on the phone at SleepEZ, Flow Beds, Habitat Furnishing etc I discoverd that the Original Mattress Factory had a great latex bed at a very reasonable price with great warranty and excellent customer service. I visited many ot their stores, asked questions and evey time they were knowledgeable and patient. If they didn't have an answer they called their factory while I was there to get the right answer to my question. They said I was the most educated consumer they had ever encountered. It was because I did massive research. We laid on their latex bed for hours several times. My wife has Fibromalgia issues and I developed Acid Reflux so we needed a bed that would eliminate pressure points and also be able to adjust as to position. They sell only the best adjustable bed the Legett and Platt Scape model. There price for the mattress was 650 for an xlong twin, we bought two to make a king size bed and two adjustable L&P bases for a total of $3500 set up and delivered by their delivery people. We are complety sastified after a week, the matress is amazing, no pain for my wife, no stiffness getting up in the morning and the adjustable aspect is an added bonus for us. You can check out Latex International as they list Original Mattress Factory as one of their distributors. The bed is Taladay latex, 6" latex foundation 32 LDL, 60% synthetic,and 40% natural with 1 and a 1/2 inch foam mattress cover that is on both sides as the bed can be flipped. Total thickness 9" We got their standard latex bed as the ultra plush was to soft for our personal liking. If you want a comfortable bed at a great price from a company that has simplified the buying process and has take the mystery out of latex buy from them.
