Such expensive mattresses seem overkill to me, but maybe I'm wrong. Have you guys tried less expensive foam mattresses, eg the Otis Haley 110 which uses 1.8 density foam: http://www.csnfutons.com/Haley-110-8%22-Futon-Mattress-OD1054.html or the Otis Liberty which uses 2.5 density foam: http://www.csnfutons.com/Otis-Bed-Liberty-8-Futon-Mattress-OD1047.html or say the wolf latex ultima: http://www.futons-store.com/p/wolf-8-inch-latex-ultima-chair-futon-mattress They are sub $500 mattresses, and even if they last 5 years, you should come out ahead of the $2000 mattresses in the long run. So, are these mattresses not good ? |

I have looked for 8 years. Went to floBeds, sense I'm 21/2 hours away! I had been to Sleep Ez also. BBB made my choice! Been to the store in Southern Cal. to. I went for the kit instead! One can turn their 2 inch Cfoam topper over also! If over kill, go IKEA! |

Dull and all, Great points all of you. I will be going to a local foam dealer/manufacturer in the Toronto area. They have a warehouse just in the north end of the city ... any one wants to check them out ... look at www.foamite.com They have a Soy based product which has 60% less chemicals than the Lux-HQ and as high ILD ratings but it is quite a bit more ... Hard to beat the prices from USA although with the CDA dollar taking a beating it might be similar. |

I went with FloBeds.com since clients of mine have a latex bed from them and they love the bed and loved how easy it was to exchange their split layers and they actually loved the soft topper. I also needed a bed without chemicals since I had become allergic to the chemicals placed in conventional spring mattresses and in their Polyurethane foam. I love my pine slat bed frame and the fact they sent me two sets of legs to try out and then allowed me to exchange the legs for the tallest 10 legs so I can store things under my bed. I love how they overnighted the headboard brackets for me when I told them my Wesley Allen Headboard was arriving the next day. I love how Dave kept searching for a topper for me when I told him due to my not quite 5 feet body frame, I wanted a thinner soft topper. loved how they allowed so many exchanges and when they heard about my car accident and now my bed required even a firmer bed, they extended the latex core exchange time period for me. I love how they sliced a latex pillow for me to make it thinner for me. Their customer service aims to please and I really feel they care about each customer being happy and comfortable. Also I love their new zipped up cover that is soft and has latex protection inside it so the zipper will not get caught. No company is perfect but I liked how Dave took the time out to talk to me about my needs and never pressured me into buying a bed from him. I liked how he quickly credited my credit card twice during the 90 days when the bed I bought went on sale. I just wish their latex core combination helping you choose program on their site will ask you more questions and make the bed firmer even for little people if questions are answered a certain way so their is less latex core exchanges. For me, I just like very firm beds despite most people my size liking a bed softer. But I am learning that too firm is uncomfortable also. I never slept with a soft topper until I got a FloBed and I find as a side sleeper, a soft topper is what I needed. |
