Baybed or European Sleepworks?
| Does anyone have any experience with either company? I am intruged by their designs using coils topped with latex. Thanks. |

I have the Nordic model with added pillowtop on the european adjustable slats. I found that it was incredibly warm and way too firm for me. Being a neophyte at the time, I did not realize that I could return it. By the time I found out, it was too late so a family member is now using it. I have read that some people have had trouble with European Sleep Works when they want to return or exchange. If you call and try to get some technical specs on the springs and latex, they won't give you a straight answer. There is a review here on them and you might also check yelp. I have visited Bay Bed and while their products seemed of high quality, I didn't like the zippered covers. They were too thick and hard for my liking. If you are in northern California you should also check The Natural Mattress Store (thenaturalmattressstore.com). They have several variations on pocket coils with latex too. Some have zippered covers. Good luck and keep us posted on your progress. |

Are you referring to Bay Bed and Mattress in Santa Cruz? http://www.baybed.com/ This is where I bought our two XL long twin mattresses and we love them. Inside an Eastern King frame pushed together. I'm not sure what you mean by the zippered mattress covers being too thick and hard. Did you try them all? Some have a softer fabric. The one I chose is just like a cover you would see on a readymade mattress. It's got some filling in the quilted top and the zipper is of industrial quality. Durable and just the right amount of "plush". The fire resistant felt edging is built into the cover. We've been very pleased with our mattresses and it's been almost 3 years. Earlier on I did a lot of "tweaking" to get the inside layers "just right". It wasn't always perfect. It's after I found a topper from Penney's called Dream Coil made out of Omalon that I finally found the perfect match for our backs. Over that I have a Cuddlebed topper from Costco. Just the right amount of cushion and support. I haven't opened up our mattresses in close to two years. I have different ILDS of latex and high density polyfoam on hand should we ever want to switch them out. But, so far, no need to. princesspea wrote: I have the Nordic model with added pillowtop on the european adjustable slats. I found that it was incredibly warm and way too firm for me.
