Hello. My name is Jamie. I have been following several posts on here for some time now and learning a lot. Thank you for that.

Here is what I am looking for:

- My old mattress was memory foam and it did not provide enough support. I have lower back pain from this. I would like a mattress that is more supportive than memory foam. I read that 100% natural latex is great for pressure relief and that it is more supportive than memory foam so I think it may work well for me.

- During my research, I came across a lot of information on vocs in certain mattress and all of the harm that they can cause. So, I know that I want an organic mattress with little to no vocs.

- I am hoping this new mattress will last a long time and from my research, it looks like 100% natural latex is very resilient and that it lasts a long time so it looks like this is the way to go.

** I have my search narrowed down to 2 choices - Plushbeds and Flobeds. Both have excellent reputations; great customer reviews and nice return and warranty policies.

Does anyone have an organic latex mattress from either of these companies and how do you like it? I'm open to other suggestions as well as long as it is an organic latex mattress. Thank you.

Hi Jamie. I have the 9" Botanical Bliss mattress from Plushbeds in medium and I love it! It is the most comfortable mattress I have ever owned. To answer your questions, it is organic and 100% natural latex with no blends. It's a very good quality mattress. It gives great support yet it feels soft at the same time - it cushions my whole body and almost makes me feel like I'm floating. I do not sink into the mattress at all like I do with memory foam. It gives great pressure relief and it feels soothing on my body. There is also no off gassing or odors. I sleep like a baby on this mattress. I would highly recommend this mattress. As far as it lasting a long time - I believe it will - it is very resilient and there is a 25 year warranty. I hope this helped. Good luck to you!

Hi Jamie. I never heard of Flobeds before but I personally own a Plushbeds mattress and it is the most comfortable mattress I have ever owned. I have the 9" Botanical Bliss 100% natural latex mattress. It is a very good quality mattress and it has adjustable layers which are not glued together like some other mattress companies do it. No blends or synthetics and no chemicals. I can attest to the fine quality and comfort of this mattress.

Jamie.  Both have good reputations.  Plushbeds might be a little less expensive.  Flobeds is perfect for complicated sleep problems.  Mattdud
