Found two mattresses--need help with decision!
|
So, I am thinking about two mattresses that i found, but wary because they're being discontinued (something like that) and thus the great deal--AND no refund! Keep in mind that I'm looking for a bed that has NO motion transfer, but even I seem to feel some motion on a TempurPedic (tried it in store)!!! One is Nature's Rest latex mattress with soy core (i forget the name of it)...Feels good, a little soft, some motion. Other one is Spring Air memory foam, 5.2 density (a little less than TempurPedic). Felt good, even though i'm not a huge fan of memory foam, but i could still feel movement (from sales dude). I guess if i can feel movement in memory foam mattress, there really are no ideal options for me! I'm not sure i can buy either bed due to no refund/exchange...they're being offered for $750 each, as they're the last models on floor. I'm considering these models because i think they'll offer less motion than an innerspring, and will hold up longer, too. Will Foam By Mail offer me the same quality as these? Maybe that's a better option...? |

| If you use a base rather than a box spring, that will help with motion transfer. Having a split down the middle between the two sides will help with motion transfer (something that flobeds and others do with their customized beds. You can do the same with FBM by cutting with an electric knife. |

My electric knife ($2 at a yard sale last summer) cut easily through 2.5 inches of 1.8 lb egg crate on top of 4 inches of 2.8 lb ILD 50 Lux-HQ. Remember, it's designed to cut through a 65 lb/cubic foot roast. The blade may want to wander on you, but it will cut it easily. |

Electracat , From what I just received and put into use from FBM (latex 6"core and 2" topper) was useable, but far from good quality. Mostly surface inperfections such as elongated holes,hopefully it won't effect the life of mattress. I think the price indicates the quality. They were very pleasant to deal with and shipped timely.
