I went to Ethan Allen and they told me their Profile Latex bed is equivalent to the memory foam mattresses.  The cost was about $2250 after discount ($2819 original price) for a king sized mattress.

We've tried the Tempurpedic Cloud Lux and Cloud Supreme but they are too expensive.  Serta iComfort Revolution ($2499) is too cushy and we read bad reviews about them.

Any thoughts?

Yes, we are both under 150 lbs and the Sealy line I purchased is Posturpedic.  It is ultra plush.

 

 

 

I figure Ethan Allen's Kingsdown is expensive for the name.  $2200 for a latex/soy mattress is expensive.  It only has 10 year warranty.

But I'm not sure if the generic OC Mattress with 15 year warranty and latex/coils is better.  Stress O pedic makes this http://www.stressopedic.com/ but I've never heard of them.

They actually both feel decent.  The Ethan Allen is slightly firmer.

The Sealy Posturepedic plush models from about 4 years ago had a LOT of comfort foam on top (the coils were less than 6" in height) measure your old mattress thickness (1" base foam, 5-3/4" coil and the rest is comfort foam and quilting... most sagging in that line-up was in the foams and not the coils... this is why manufacturers usually want about 1-1/2" or more depression to make a warranty claim; it takes at least that much to show the foams are breaking down too fast.

Depending on the soy foam ILD, the in-store model may feel firmer based on the how often it has been tested (broken in)... the coils should not change throughout its life...

You may want to test again and spend at least 20 minutes on each one and see how relaxed you feel after 20 minutes in each one... if you find yourself relaxing quicker in one anr just feeling more relaxed... that's the one to pick!

Good luck!
