HD36-HQ softening? Better off getting Lux-HQ instead?
|
I'm planning a diy foam mattress, hoping to use as little topper material as I can. I was thinking that FBM's HD36-HQ would work well for what I need, in terms of density and firmness, but I read a post from LatencyMachine from 10/12 that has me concerned that the HD36 might soften too much over the course of several months. For those of you who've used FBM's HD36, have you noticed a similar softening? I'm leaning toward just getting the too-firm Lux-HQ and toppers since it seems like a safer bet, but if the HD36 doesn't soften too much, I could get away with not having to buy as much topper material. Thanks, Jim |

that;s the exact type of foam I would want to try for a stiff core, but i fear the odor of even latex much less c.f. |
