We are seriously considering doing a DIY bed buying latex foam from foambymail.com. The 100% latex foam is cheaper but my drawback is not having a sturdy case to surround it all. My DH thinks he'll just roll out of bed off the side. Do you think this makes a difference, the sturdy cover vs. the cotton or terry cloth thin cover? I have read that having a thin cover is actually better though being closer to the latex....but still concerned about falling off... Words of wisdom anyone? Thanks!!

Hi Diane, Budgy did PM me last night, he's so great! He says he's not sure which would be the absolute best, and stated what Dormeir recommends, so he thinks I'll be fine with the 24". It's a tough call so I'm going by what Dormeir says on its own website: http://dormeir.com/products/mattressprotectors.htm "St. Dormeir Mattress Protectors are available in all mattress sizes. To accommodate todays extra thick mattresses, St. Dormeir protectors are available in two skirt depths: I'll email snuggledown and tell them to put the order through on the 24" inch. It's difficult when things are "unreturnable", but I'm going to take the chance. I can always try the Sheet Suspenders I already have to hold it in place if it's too loose. If those don't work, I can put it up for sale. Thanks again for all your insight. I'll definitely keep you posted. Natalie This message was modified Jul 16, 2010 by Natalia
