DIY Questions before I start mattress surgery.
|
I have a Stearns and Foster Plush level mattress a little less than 3 years old that has formed sever depressions. We were happy with the mattress for a year and half. I've got to believe the springs are good and that the cushioning just needs to be replaced. I've read as many of the threads as I could find on this forum, but it's hard without a more advanced search function. 1) S&F says they use "hypersoft and "Supersoft" foam for the top layers. Any idea if this stuff is latex or memory foam or something else? 2) Is it likely that some of the foam layers will be OK and reusable, or will they most likely all need to be replaced. 3) Should I buy an 1" or 2" of tapalay latex before I start surgery so I can have a sleepable bed right away? Or do I really need to take it apart first and see the condition before I order anything. 4) Has it been resolved that FBM is selling full density latex now (someone implied that it was underweight in another post). 5) Do most people cut off the mattress top and dispose of it - or only cut 3 sides so that it can be put back in place over the new foam layers? 6) Do people restitch the top cover back to the mattress to help maintain the integrity of the mattress? p.s. Thanks so much for all the info people have previously posted. |
