Latex Questions/Troubles
| I bought a latex foam mattress that was amazing in the store. After I got it home, it started to "break in", in the terms of the Bed Store Owner. It got softer in spots and felt lumpy and uneven. I had not been told the bed would not feel like it did in the store - I thought that was the point of a latex mattress!!! Needless to say, I am disappointed and not sure I can trust the store I bought it from. Did they deliver me a cheaper bed than I had bought thinking I might not notice? Or is the latex they used possibly inferior/defective? Or did they just not tell me the whole story when I bought it and the latex mattress does indeed break in and, according to the store, softens about 25% when being broken in? I spent way more money than I had originally intended, and all I want is the mattress I thought I was buying!! Any thoughts? |

I'm wondering if this would be a good top layer for a firm innerspring mattress even though I read that Dunlop makes for a better core or base underneath Talalay. Any thoughts on that? I slept on what I would describe as a "medium" Dunlop latex core. It was soft and supportive at the same time. I personally would not want to add a Talalay layer to a similar Dunlop core because I don't like the jiggly character of Talalay latex or the way you tend to sink into Talalay at the hips. The Dunlop was super comfy as is. |
