I'm sorry if this has been answered already...

If i liked a latex mattress at one store, say, Verlo, can i duplicate that mattress by ordering layers from FBM? Am i able to find out the ILD from Verlo, or is that something i can't really find out and duplicate?

Thanks so much!!--

Here's what FBM lists for their ILDs. I have the 6" med and 2" soft and it seems to be in the ballpark of these numbers.

6" Latex Cores

6" Talalay Latex Foam
Medium (26-32 ILD)

6" Talalay Latex Foam
Firm (33-38 ILD)

FBM 1 to 3 inch Toppers

Talalay Latex Foam Topper
Soft (20 ILD)


Talalay Latex Foam Topper
Medium (32 ILD)
