I noticed that customs sleep design mattresses come without a wool cover. They have in fact a terry cotton cover only. This is unusual. My question is would absence of a wool cover alter the feeling and durability of a latex mattress? I thought wool cover was absolutely necessay in a all latex mattress. Comments please. Thank you very much. |

i really don't think anything like that is going to be enough moisture absorption..the thin layer of cotton on top of the waterproof membrane will quickly become saturated in moisture making for a clammy humid environment near the skin. if you want water proof and breathable/temperature regulating look at the Natura Deluxe Protect mattress pad. Or if you just want breathable and water resistant, the St. Dormeir wool filled mattress protector is a good bet. This message was modified May 18, 2011 by budgy

| I thought latex mattresses came with wool because tightly woven wool is fire retardent. From what I've read here, I would recommend a moisture barrier. You can find wool moisture barrier online. They are thin, tightly woven and probably won't alter the feel of the mattress much. Don't mistake a "wool topper" for a "wool mattress pad". |
