Latex Mattress Help
| Hello, my husband and I are in desperate need of a new mattress. I have been doing lots of research and have decided on latex. (which I had never heard of prior to reading this site!). I have seen the reviews by people for SleepEz and FloBeds. I have also visited local stores and found that Aireloom and Sealy have latex mattresses (luxury latex and SpringFree). They have a latex core and mixed latex and foam. It is nice to be able to see the mattress and experience it as opposed to ordering it online. I am wondering if anyone has experience with Aireloom, Sealy or Englander latex mattresses. There does not seem to be a huge amount of review info on them. I just want to make the best decision possible and hopefully get something that will last for a while. It is a little difficult for me to order a mattress online without having seen or felt it first. (I am 5'8" and 190 lbs. and my husband is 5'9" and 220lbs. - in case that matters ) Thanks! :) |

| Thanks everyone for your advice / help. We have been trying some latex mattresses out in specialty stores to see how they feel. It is a lot to digest and I just don't want to buy something that I regret in a year! I appreciate everyone's post on the topic and research will continue. |

Bill, No apology is necessary in my opinion. You said what I wanted to. Jim was probably okay in his opinion, we all have opinions on what we have experienced. But I disagree about it is okay to accept salesmen here, we shouldn't accept that. I don't want to hear salesmen here I am not sure I agree with Jim about not being close to Latex. I think we all have opinions on what is comfortable, it is not right or wrong. I am still not sure if I want a layer to cover the latex, but then again I don't want holes from the latex imprinted on my skin. My opinion on ready made mattresses from the "S' companies is I would NEVER buy from them again. I will make my own, thank you very much. I have wasted enough money on that garbage. That is what this forum is for, opinions from people who are buy and sleeping on mattresses, not from sales people. My opinion.......... This message was modified Mar 2, 2009 by Leo3
