my planned DIY latex - sound ok?
|
We've decided to order: 6" latex base - firm 33-38 ILD from FBM $483.99 2" latex topper - soft - 20ILD from FBM $150.99 terry cover from FBM $20 SnugFleece Elite Queen Mattress Pad 1.5” pile 65oz wool - $258 from dreamsoftbedware.com (total $912.98) We have a platform bed (solid wood, not slats) but right now the mattress is on the floor because we cosleep with our 5 month old. Anyone know if having a solid, non-slatted base is a problem? Anyone have any changes or other recommendations to give to our planned mattress? We used a lot of information from other people's posts to decide on this combo, but we're always open to suggestions! We've toyed with only using a 1" topper of soft latex and thought of using the snugfleece deluxe instead as it's cheaper ($161). Any thoughts or opinions are welcome. I appreciate all of the information everyone on this forum has provided to me! I'm so glad I didn't plunk down another $1300 on a pillowtop from a big S! |

| I know what you mean about the lack of "jiggle" with Dunlop. I tried out a Natura latex bed with a Dunlop core and Talaly comfort layer and the mattress just felt "dead" to me. |

Bah! I just ordered it last night and did use a 10% off coupon, but 30% is so much better! I wonder if they'd honor it for me or cancel my original order so I could reorder...hmmm... Thanks for the heads up! |
