Mattress Forum

Hi Phoenix, I am the person who puchased this Dunlop Mattress.

It is 1" of 18 ILD on top then the next layer below is 2" of 24 ILD, below it is 6" of 24-32 ILD.  I called the company that makes it and first the person who picked the phone told me that the mattress is medium feel but that is not what I am feeling after trying hard to sleep on it since last week.

 ( I asked him who makes their dunlop and he would not tell me!

So I called their showroom and the sales person did not know who makes their latex! Then he called me later and said it was a company called LATEXCO.

So I called LATEXCO. And they have 2 offices one in East an done on West coast. I called the one in East and asked him if this company sources their latex from you - he replied that it does not ring a bell!

Then he told me LATEXCO DOES NOT MAKE DUNLOP LATEX!

I then called the West Coast office of Latexco and the salesperson told me LATEXCO MAKES DUNLOP LATEX. But he does not think LATEXCO sources their latex to the company I bought this DUNLOP LATEX BED FROM!

The whole thing is starting to sound fishy. )

I had the mattress for only a few days. I have a wollen mattress pad on it and a 400 thread count Egyptian cotton sheet on it.

Since the day I had this all supossedly Dunlop mattress, I have not gotten a decent sleep. It feels okay when I lay on it just for a couple

of seconds and then the matress begins to press against my body. Honestly, it feels firm, really firm. I am tossing and turning every minute and I am half awake all night. 

Should I return the mattress or should I spend more money and Add a topper. I have never slept on Talalay latex before so I would like to get a topper from place that takes the returns. What places do you know of that do that?

My Statistics are: weight 225 lbs, height 6 feet 1 inches, side sleeper, health issues are low backpain and neck pain.

Thank you very much Phoenix ;)
