How thick does a latex mattress need to be?
|
I am debating on taking the latex I have and putting it on my foundation that I used for the Sealy Truform (Tempurpedic copy). I now have 5 1/2" latex over my spring mattress, how much more do I need if I am 160-165 lbs, 5' 10 1/2" in order not to bottom out? Did someone say 9" thick before? I think I may get samples of 44ILD for the base. Any suggestions? Amazingly my back hasn't been hurting with 5 1/2" of latex. Gasp I now that sounds like a lot, but my springs do not give. What I want to know is why does the hips (side sleeping) feel no pain and comfortable when I initially lay on it, then hours later, pain city. Am I the only one with this problem? It seems like all the complaints here for for lower back. The only time I had that problem (thank goodness) was when the bed was too soft or too hard. I sometimes wonder if I will ever get this right. I still remember Eagle2 (I think) posting that sometimes 80% is the best we can do. Can't remember exactly what he posted, but I had the layering about 80% good and then I messed with it. Why can't we get this 100%???? This message was modified Feb 12, 2010 by Leo3
