Latex and Pillow Tops
|
I am interested in getting the Simmons World Class Elderberry Pillow Top bed from Macys. I have two concerns: The mattress under the pillow top also has coils and comes either in the visco foam or the latex. Although the latex sounds like a better way to go over visco foam, I am not sure if I will like it for I was not able to try it out. I liked the feel of the floor sample which is the visco foam, and I understand the latex is a more firm mattress - being that it is underneath the pillow top (which is made with a synthetic polyester jersey knit) would I feel a difference between the two, and might it be too firm? And I also wonder if the heating aspect of the latex would be an issue or not, being that it is underneath the pillow top? I am also concerned of the pillow top, for I have not read many positive reviews concerning pillow tops. I would hope that they have improved the quality of drooping and sagging in the newer beds, but I haven't been able to find recent reviews. Does anyone have any comments, input or knowledge of these concerns or this particular bed? Thanks so much, I really appreciate it. |

| We had a Simmons World Class and the foam started sagging in 9 months. Latex is better and won't sag. |
Re: Latex and Pillow Tops
| Thank you for that, I have pretty much decided to get the latex, just need to hear something good about the pillow top! |
Re: Latex and Pillow Tops
| most of the foam being used in this pillowtop is low density polyurethane foam. therefore I do not have much good to say about the bed. |

I was afraid of hearing that - I've been reading and can't find a whole lot of good things out there on this subject. Disappointing ...But thank you! This message was modified Mar 25, 2011 by esil19

Re: Latex and Pillow Tops
| I have a fairly inexpensive Sealy and cut it open and replaced all of the foam with latex and 1" high density memory foam. I don't think you can find a coil mattress with as high quality foam, for the same cost. Almost all use some cheap PU foam that won't last. The only missing on mine is having a nice cover sewn on top. Not that it matters much once you put on the mattress pad. |
