Hi Everybody
I have a few questions for all the knowlegable out there. The first one is where can I find places to test Latex mattresses in Los Angeles. I have been to a bunch of different places and they all have one or maybe two mattresses, with dubious qualifications. I would like to find a store or showroom where I can test a bunch of different beds, with differeing ILD's. The second question is can I find a latex mattress for under $1300? Everything thats any good seems to be around the $1700 level. Does anybody have any suggestions regarding places to look for something a little cheaper? Disregarding the mattress pad and cover, are ILD's of similiar type latex mattresses compositions the same? What I mean by that, is if I go out and find a configuration that I like, can I expect somewhat the same feel if I order that online? Thanks |

Search under Los Angeles in the box above and to the right. Look for postings by Phoenix. I think he listed a bunch of stores in L.A. not too long ago. You can get it for under $1300 possibly from a place like Costco or Sam's club. Also, if you build it yourself from foambymail or possibly buying components from sleepez, sleeplikeabear, rockymountain mattress, etc. Foambymail is the cheapest, but harder to know for sure what you are getting. Their talalay is not made by Latex International. Of course, it will depend on the size. You did not mention what size you are looking for. There will be a difference in feel in ILDs between dunlop and talalay. So, make sure you know which you are testing. If you stick with a major manufacturer like Latex International, then the same ILDs (for the same process like talalay) should feel pretty much the same. However, if they are made by different manufactures, then I suspect there might be some difference in feel for the same ILD. |

Looking for a queen. It seems that Sam's Club's mattresses aren't held in the highest regard here. And I can't find too much on Costco. If i'm looking at this budget, am I primarily looking at a top layer of latex with base layers of HR foam? |

There is one queen latex over PU on costco for less than $1000 . I don't recall seeing that before. It is possible they will put this on sale at some point. Maybe worth a gamble, since they have a 100% return policy. You use to be able to buy a 100% latex one there for $1000 (when it was on sale), but they are out stock on those. |
