| This is made by Latex International, sold at Sam's Club. I just was googling all Natural latex and found this. Anyone? Click here. |

Looks like a real bargain, especially in the larger sizes! Is it firmer than the Costco mattress? This message was modified Apr 3, 2010 by luke

The first latex link is blended I believe, and is made by "Latex International" that alone is a good thing. The second link is as Budgy said, it is organic wool, and cotton. It is natural latex, it is zoned also. Nobody here (that I know of) has bought a zoned latex bed. They both are made in USA, the Natural Latex is organic and made in USA (however it doesn't say Latex International). I sent emails with questions to the manufacturer.

| Leo, did you find out where the latex for the 100% natural is sourced? Is it Dunlop or Talalay? LI or another manufacturer? |

I would write back and ask specifically whether it is Dunlop or Talalay processed latex because in my experience it makes a HUGE difference. If my Dunlop layer from SleepEZ was labeled correctly (and I think it is), then a 32ILD Dunlop natural feels more like a 36-38ILD Talalay natural. So, I think that the ILD's they give, if it's Dunlop would be firm enough. In fact you might need to put a super soft Talalay layer on top if that is the case. However, it does look like a very good price with shipping included. Almost makes me want to try one. Do they have the same easy return and refund policy that CostCo does? If so, I would say, go for it. |

Good eye Jim! I never thought about that, sometimes they say natural and it could be Dunlop instead of Talalay. I will email them back. Thanks.

"Progressive support mid and substrate layers consist of Reflex® high density, high resilience (HR" wouldn't you say this wasn't latex? Yes, you are correct Kimberly the Latexco is Dunlop and Jim is correct that since it is Dunlop the ILD are probably okay then.
