I'm not looking for a mattress, and I don't know if these mattresses are any good, but the prices seem reasonable so I thought I'd pass along the info.

Phoenix, By no means are they made only from latex, and they do seem 'skimpy' on the latex that they do include (that's why I included the links to the pdf's, so people could see what they were actually made of). Personally, if I was starting over and wanted to buy a latex mattress (and save some money), I'd seriously consider buying the individual cores/toppers and creating my own custom bed. Of course, one can also buy a customized latex bed, but one will also pay a premium for having it 'all put together'. |

I guess I just get annoyed when some companies try so hard to mislead consumers. To imply that "engineered latex" is latex and lead people into believing that it is "the same" or to imply that an inch or even two qualifies a mattress to be called a latex mattress when it has almost none and what it does have is in places where it can't even be really felt is just outright deception IMO. It encourages people who are more willing to believe what they read to compare mattresses like this to latex mattresses and then "think" that they are getting a great deal. Boyd is particularly bad for this and you often see their mattresses advertised on places like craigslist and being sold through "liquidation outlets" that imply they are offering some huge discount. I actually went to one of these one time just to confirm what "Boyd was really made of" and the law tag made it pretty clear. Phoenix This message was modified Dec 28, 2010 by Phoenix
