I have decided on purchasing a 3" Natural Talalay mattress topper. I am looking at the two companies shown above. Can I get some feedback on either of the two companies. I know that FSF gets its latex from Latex International. I don't believe that Rocky Mt does. The Rocky Mt topper is approximately $100 cheaper, $400 vs $309 for a queen size
thank you |

Thanks for sharing. I agree that the guy sounds very rude and hopefully this will get back to the owner or manager. Actually, if I were you, I'd copy and paste what you just wrote and mail it to the Manager. That salesman needs an attitude adjustment. Even if the kids were doing something wrong, he could have been more polite and nice about it. I'm not defending FSM since I never bought from them. But my wife and I did go down there a few years ago. We found the people nice enough, although I do recall not getting a real warm feeling from them, either. Our problem with them was that - as I recall - they did not have a very good sleep trial policy. Here's their policy from their web site: " 30 Day Exchange - Our goal is that you buy a mattress that is comfortable. Within 30 days of the invoice date, you may exchange one latex layer of the mattress - one time. We will pay for the freight charges of the exchanged layer. The customer is responsible for packaging and paying for freight charges of the returned item back to Foam Sweet Foam. Custom Items may not be exchanged. 60 Day Return - Within 60 days of the invoice date, you may return the purchase. There is an 18% return fee for any returned item. The customer is responsible for packaging and shipping charges back to Foam Sweet Foam. To receive credit, you must return all items listed on the invoice, including promotional items. Products not returned will be billed. All items must be returned in factory new condition. Custom Items may not be returned. After 60 Days - No item may be returned or exchanged after 60 days." |

I live in Utah and have been to the Rocky Mountain Mattress sales office out by Thanksgiving Point. Although, this location was there corporate headquarters and they do not have a true "showroom" I was able to arrange a meeting to have samples of the product shown and explained to me. I spoke with their "Online Sales Manager" (I think his name was Mr. Mink) and he was refreshingly transparent about all of the foam options, who manufactured what, etc. Based on that conversation, I can tell you the following: RMM's dunlop foam is made my Latex Green RMM's talalay foam is made by Latex Int. All of the memory foam is made by either Bayer or Foamex. We chose the Dunlop from Latex Green as toppers for my two sons and have been very happy. Except that the boys try and tear off chips of the latex every chance they get! If you have kids I highly recommend getting one of the covers! I thought RMM was great from price to service (the toppers shipped within 24 hours of ordering, which was great). Good luck. This message was modified Apr 17, 2010 by JtotheA

Thanks for the info on RMM. I am considering either 32ILD LI or 24ILD. Since this is natural and not blended did Mr. Mink explain if it is firmer or denser? Does it feel firmer than a same ILD blended? I am still trying to sleep longer than a one to two hours on my hip without pain. I have 2" 23ILD over 3" of ??? firmer O-stock latex. This is over a 12 year old flippable firm mattress. I am still trying to figure out if I should get natural or blended latex.
Thanks. |

Aren't there any latex owners who have seen both blended talalay and natural talalay that can tell me if a 24ILD of blended and a 24ILD of all natural is going to feel the same? Eagle2 is on vacation (LOL) and he did say it was denser, but how much more? Will the 24ILD natural feel like 28 or 32ILD?
Anyone? This message was modified Apr 18, 2010 by Leo3
