Hi Folks,

Back to experimenting with surgery mattress... tried my "stack" with and without even a relatively thin 10 year old basic cotton skirted pad (JC Penney)... no more than 3/16 inch thick... and the difference was huge.  Much better without the pad.. which stiffened up and firmed up my top layers of 4 lb mem foam and 19 lb latex so that the comfort supplied by them without the pad was.... almost unnoticeable!  So soft and flexible pad is very important, as many here have commented.

So here is the question:  which of these do you have. like, and recommend.. or would you choose?

 

1.  Walmart (Sandman's)   Out of stock but $169 delivered?

2.   St. Dormeir    $169 free shipping at cuddledown.com   - Nonreturnable

3.   Natura washable  $169 at Bed & Bath order online only.... + 8% sales tax + $15 shipping o= $198 maybe less 20% coupon... but returnable?

 

I am inclined to go with returnable Natura, though folks here rave about St. Dormeir. 

Thoughts, anyone?

thanks!  shovel99

I took the Dormeir off last night, I much prefer my mattress without it.  If anyone is interested in it (king size), send me a PM.  Thanks!

I noticed this tonight for anyone who may be interested. It doesn't say so but I'm pretty sure it's the Natura ... exactly the same features, look, and even name ... and it's the least expensive I've seen anywhere.

Good catch Phoenix.  I noticed the other night when browsing that they are selling one of Natura's pillows, so I think you are right.

That is bad news frown since it can't be returned.  Why didn't you like it?  Kinda scared now since I ordered once last week! crying

I think that one has been discussed before here.  It looks like a Natura, but I think the only washable one they have does not have a waterproof barrier or the silver in the cotton.  So, maybe this is something they made just for Costco?   I worry about the breathability of anything waterproof.

It has the breathable waterproof barrier and the ionic silver ... same as the Natura protect deluxe (same name) and the same layers of cotton, wool, and membrane... and they're both washable.

Course it could be different but it sure looks the same.

Sorry I meant protect deluxe and this is it at the natura site http://www.naturaworld.com/mattress-protector-deluxe

You could be right.  I have not seen that one before.  I think it may be new to their lineup.

It was actually one of the things that impressed me about them. I use colloidal silver often as an antibiotic or when I'm coming down with something, and it's always worked well for me ... just a little slower than antibiotics.

Have you done any research on how it works in this kind of physical format?  I can't find anything on it.  I can't even figure out how or what their lining is that the silver is in, or on, or...

maybe I'm just too tired right now!
