My friend bought a DUNLOP latex mattress and it is supposed to be of medium feel but after he slept on it he felt it was feeling firm to him. The latex layers are not changeable as they are stitched together so he cannot move them up or down.

 

Questions:

1.  How can he make the mattress feel softer for himself?

 

2.  Does the latex soften over time? I mean if the latex is supposed to have a medium feel then does it become softer after sleeping in for some time?

I mean does the latex breaks in like the memory foam is supposed to break in and become softer after sleeping for some time?

 

3.  Can he buy a latex topper and place it on the top of this latex mattress?

If so, What ILD latex will give him a softer feel?

And which latex will be better? Dunlop latex or Talalay latex?

(please NOte: that the mattress is Dunlop Latex)

What places will provide good quality and value for this latex topper?

 

4.  If not latex can he get a memory foam and what kind and from where?

 

Lots of questions but please help. Thanks so much.
