As I am going back to a spring mattress, how will it be if I just use some normal (aka cheaper) latex rather than talay which is like $400 for 3" in Ca King sizing?

I thought I read foam by mail latex was pretty good?

It's been a long time for me, but I had a mattress need, so came back here...so, I found this thread and others as I need a new topper for my daughter.  She sleeps on a spring bed, and about a year or two ago I got her the inexpensive 1" Sealy latex topper from Overstock.  She's now complaining again that her mattress is too hard.  After some research here, I went ahead and ordered a 2" 24-ILD talalay latex topper from Sleep Like a Bear (Evelyn was very nice).  I hope this does the trick. I assume this will be a superior product, and it'll also be twice the depth...and I think the right ILD for a kid.  We'll see if I chose right.  Thanks forum members for steering me in the right direction.

Good luck! I love my latex on a spring bed. So happy!
