I've heard that the Savvy Rest Serenity Dunlop is the best -- but is it worth the high price?  I'm a side and stomach sleeper, about 120 lbs.  My husband is a side and back sleeper, about 180 lbs.  What do you recommend?

Without having laid on many of these options available to the US customer base, all I can say is that when you are looking for the 'best' there is a lot more to consider than just the rubber being used.  The base system, the quality of the cotton covers and wool being used.  One thing I have to tell people all the time even though I sell a LOT of organic product is that, just because something is organic does not mean it is made to high quality standards.  On the very high end of things the covers themselves are often as expensive to make as the rubber cores that are put inside.  If you think Savvy Rest is expensive look at OMI Organic Mattresses.  

I personally believe after looking at all of the highest quality finished mattresses available, the best overall quality (comfort not guaranteed by any means) would be Green Sleep, they make their own natural rubber foam and use very advanced ergonomic foundations, the best cotton and wool covers being used as well by a significant margin.  They are also pretty expensive although if looking at mattress only they are actually very reasonable.  The best quality organic mattress sans foam would probably be Lavital.  Although not yet available in North America.  

I think that since you likely don't want to spend more than Savvy Rest prices you should try to find a retailer that actually carries them so you can try them out in person, there are also a few other good options that I have seen other people post up on the forum here, Pure Rest looks to have very good pricing for certified organic product.
