Does ANYONE here like talalay latex mattresses?????
As some of you may know from my other thread, I have an all talalay mattress on the way... 3 different layers, made with 100% natural Latex International foam. But from searching around these forums, I don't see anything positive about the talalay latex, as people seem to prefer dunlop. Most of the comments I see are the talalay "pushes back" and "can't get comfortable". I have only tried it in the store, and it was nice, didn't sleep on it yet....but I have one on order that will be showing up in 2 weeks. I'm starting to think twice after reading these forums though!! Does anyone have positive experience ? |

Seems like a common construction is a combo of dunlop + talalay. This is what SleepEZ uses and several other groups as well. ~6" of dunlop core for a firmer base + 2-3-4" of talalay on top for the comfort layer. Our Berkeley Ergonomics bed arrives today-- like Sandman that will be talalay over pocket coils. I do have to agree with slpngoc-- we also tried the SleepEZ (our was 8" rather than his 10")- but on the wood foundation it was just too firm! I never could put my finger on the problem but for us, 8" of latex over wood foundation just wasn't enough cush and I always felt like I was bottoming out when I would sit up and stuff. |

We have 2 beds of 100% Talalay where the latex was sourced from Latex international. (our bed and kids bed) We have different configurations but my husband and I LOVE our bed and the kid loves theirs! Try not to worry till you try it. I bet you will like it. Everyone is different and I never really got the impression people here like Dunlop more - seems to be pretty split. Latex International makes a great product and as I said we love our beds. |
