New Natural Latex Beds on Sale Now at Costco
| Hi, I have been looking for a new mattress and when I was researching Latex mattresses I found this site. I had already decided to try a latex mattress before coming here and from what I have read I am more convinced that is what I want. My husband noticed a new latex mattress listed on the Costco site and I was wondering if anyone has tried it. I know it is new, but I thought maybe someone might have some comments that might help. Here are the highlights of the bed components - we would be getting a King size with the foundation and at $1499.99 it seems like a steal. I know we would be sacrificing the ability to customize the firmness on each side but is it worth $1000.00 for that??? Here are the list of latex layers - Four layers of 100% natural latex for unsurpassed comfort: Layer 1 – 1” 19 ILD natural latex – soft layer Layer 2 – 2” of 24 ILD natural latex – medium layer Layer 3 – 4” of 32 ILD natural latex – support layer Layer 4 – 3” of 24 ILD natural latex – medium layer Two mattresses in one! Due to its unique construction, the Sleep Science Natural Comfort Latex Mattress allows you to sleep on either the top or bottom of the mattress. Each side has been engineered for a slightly different feel, one softer than the other. The Sleep Science Natural Latex Mattress is two high quality mattresses in one. The mattress is delivered with layer 1 (softer sleep surface) on the top. For a firmer sleep surface, remove the mattress from the cover, flip the mattress, put the cover back on and enjoy a firmer sleep surface. 100% Natural Latex. Certified by the ECO-INSTITUT as 100% Dunlop processed natural latex. Sleep Science Natural Comfort 10” Latex mattress fits the dimensions of your bed Meets the requirements of 16 CFR Part 1633-Federal flammability (open flame) standards Limited Warranty: 20 years against manufacturer defects Hypoallergenic, antimicrobial and dust mite resistant This luxurious, health promoting mattress comes with a beautiful silk blend and micro-suede mattress cover Sleep Science Softness Scale – Soft/Medium on one side and Medium on the other Here is the link if you would like to look at all the info - http://www.costco.com/Browse/Productgroup.aspx?Prodid=11496053&whse=BC&Ne=4000000&eCat=BC|93|4914|4916&N=4001838&Mo=39&pos=0&No=31&ViewAll=40&Nr=P_CatalogName:BC&cat=4916&Ns=P_Price|1||P_SignDesc1&lang=en-US&Sp=C&ec=BC-EC850-Cat4914&topnav= Thanks again for your help!

Re: New Natural Latex Beds on Sale Now at Costco
| ugh. does the 23" total height include legs on the foundation or something? I was assuming 10" mattress + ~8" foundation. 23" would be WAY too high on my wooden sleigh bed frame. hoping it is not that tall, but if it is... does anyone have a low profile foundation to recommend? or have experience trying to return just the foundation part of a mattress order to costco? thanks in advance! |

We actually ordered the twin version and foundation as well on the last day of the sale. At the time that was the only one left. Magically, all sizes were in stock after the sale was over! I am not seeing them on the website at all now. Just the memory foam mattresses. |

Don't worry, the 23" includes the legs. Sorry about that. The legs are removable. Just the foundation and mattress are 18". This message was modified Jan 7, 2010 by engra

Can anyone provide the total HEIGHT of the foundation AND mattress? link doesn't seem to be available on costco site. And Randy, were you saying your arm is falling asleep with the new latex mattress or only with the tempur? I'm sure hoping this works, my next option is to try a Tempur Classic or the 14" Celeste from Costco BTW, any recommendation on a good mattress cover for this? I assume we want water resistant and thin. thanks! it is happening with the bellafina tempurpedic...cant remember if it happened with the costco/sleep science foam mattress or not...back is killing me, everyday...new bed should be here next week |
Re: New Natural Latex Beds on Sale Now at Costco
| I got the bed. Its made in China. It doesn't smell. It's very soft. I've slept on it 3 nights, and slept pretty good, but I'm returning it because it is not firm enough. Too bad. |

I was suppose to get my bed yesterday but wrong house, wrong mattress. I am so grateful for this forum, I would be lost w/o it and still thinking I'm as crazy as my kids try and tell me I am. I am worried about this bed and am curious about the last reply. Did you flip it or start on the med side to begin with? How much do you weigh? What kind of bed did you sleep on before? What's next for you? I spent an hour on a NexGel mattress yesterday but decided to wait for Costco's mattress. I have been paying attention to everything and I really felt I WAS bottoming out on the NexGel. I have been off the Sleep Number for two nights and feel much better. I'm back on my $250 Areo bed with a 3 inch memory topper. This has been working for me for years BUT I have to replace the bed and the foam every few years. So far they allow me to trade it at Bed Bath and Beyond when it goes "bad". I have a real problem with the sweat pooling between the air bed and foam which causes it to mold. I keep a towel between the bed and the foam but its super wet every moring and it I don't take the whole thing apart to dry I get screwed really quick. Of course I am the only one who can sleep on this bed, two just doesn't work. I weigh 290. I am thinking, the more I read on here, that I may just build my own bed frame and work with my pricy Areo bed. It has worked for me for years. Some how I am going to find a way to keep it dry! I have tried wool, feathers, you name it, I've tried it. I really get a kick out of all the mattress surgery I read about on here. I have been sharing with my kids, all these posts, and now I don't sound so crazy any more. I want to thank all the people who take the time to write! Thank you, thank you, thank you! This experience has been greatly aided by your posts. |

We actually ordered the twin version and foundation as well on the last day of the sale. At the time that was the only one left. Magically, all sizes were in stock after the sale was over! Engra: you mention that the bed is much firmer than the ILDs suggest. Are you referring to the soft side up or did you flip it so that the firm side is up? I visited the South Bay International office in Pomona 2 mos ago and tried the latex bed and the various memory foam beds as well. I thought the latex (demo was soft side up) was not firm enough but there was no flip side available for comparison; to me the soft side up is similar to the medium softness memory foam mattresses. My recollection of the various memory foam beds is imperfect but I believe the Celeste was firmer than the Ara but also a little springier due to the 2" layer of latex. Both were comfortable. The springiness was the biggest difference. The latex and memory foam chemicals are, according to the company rep, sourced outside of China but South Bay owns a 700,000 sq foot manufacturing plant in China (website www.southbayinternational.com) where raw products are sent for manufacture. I, too, noticed that all the latex bed sizes appeared on the Costco site the day after the sale ended. However, the next day the whole latex line disappeared. The company phone agent said that no additonal orders were being taken to avoid back ordering. She also mentioned that the memory foam Emma bed is going on sale next month (Feb); that may or may not be accurate. I decided to wait until several user reviews appeared on the Costco site, or here, about the all latex bed before ordering. So please post your experience if you've slept on it (and which side of it you like the best). |
