If latex didn't work for you, what did you do?
| I have finally given up on my Latex mattress on the 100th day of the trial period. We had a two-side king and I experimented with every combination of the x-firm, firm, and med. blended Talalay layers including a zoned layer. My lower back has gone from bad to worse. I found the mattress very comfortable on my side or stomach, but not on my back, where I have to sleep or I have neck problems. I always felt like I needed to slide my hand under my lower back to align it correctly. I continue to wonder if base layers of Dunlop might have been better, but I am inclined to give up on foam. Memory foam has never seemed comfortable to me and my husband will not tolerate sleeping hot well at all. I found a local company that sells a pocketed coil mattress with a choice of four firmness levels on the spring set and a simple inch of poly foam on the bottom and top for a very reasonable price (in addition to various upper end models using latex or memory foam layers.) I was thinking about getting this and adding either a 2" soft Talalay topper or a 1" medium and and 1" soft topper. But I find that I am most comfortable sleeping on my couch - which is plain poly, despite how awful it is supposed to be. If you tried and gave up on Latex, did you find a mattress that made you happy (or happier...)? |
