New Natural Latex Beds on Sale Now at Costco
| Hi, I have been looking for a new mattress and when I was researching Latex mattresses I found this site. I had already decided to try a latex mattress before coming here and from what I have read I am more convinced that is what I want. My husband noticed a new latex mattress listed on the Costco site and I was wondering if anyone has tried it. I know it is new, but I thought maybe someone might have some comments that might help. Here are the highlights of the bed components - we would be getting a King size with the foundation and at $1499.99 it seems like a steal. I know we would be sacrificing the ability to customize the firmness on each side but is it worth $1000.00 for that??? Here are the list of latex layers - Four layers of 100% natural latex for unsurpassed comfort: Layer 1 – 1” 19 ILD natural latex – soft layer Layer 2 – 2” of 24 ILD natural latex – medium layer Layer 3 – 4” of 32 ILD natural latex – support layer Layer 4 – 3” of 24 ILD natural latex – medium layer Two mattresses in one! Due to its unique construction, the Sleep Science Natural Comfort Latex Mattress allows you to sleep on either the top or bottom of the mattress. Each side has been engineered for a slightly different feel, one softer than the other. The Sleep Science Natural Latex Mattress is two high quality mattresses in one. The mattress is delivered with layer 1 (softer sleep surface) on the top. For a firmer sleep surface, remove the mattress from the cover, flip the mattress, put the cover back on and enjoy a firmer sleep surface. 100% Natural Latex. Certified by the ECO-INSTITUT as 100% Dunlop processed natural latex. Sleep Science Natural Comfort 10” Latex mattress fits the dimensions of your bed Meets the requirements of 16 CFR Part 1633-Federal flammability (open flame) standards Limited Warranty: 20 years against manufacturer defects Hypoallergenic, antimicrobial and dust mite resistant This luxurious, health promoting mattress comes with a beautiful silk blend and micro-suede mattress cover Sleep Science Softness Scale – Soft/Medium on one side and Medium on the other Here is the link if you would like to look at all the info - http://www.costco.com/Browse/Productgroup.aspx?Prodid=11496053&whse=BC&Ne=4000000&eCat=BC|93|4914|4916&N=4001838&Mo=39&pos=0&No=31&ViewAll=40&Nr=P_CatalogName:BC&cat=4916&Ns=P_Price|1||P_SignDesc1&lang=en-US&Sp=C&ec=BC-EC850-Cat4914&topnav= Thanks again for your help!

Re: New Natural Latex Beds on Sale Now at Costco
| i'm considering ordering this bed before the sale is over in a week. i can't decide whether i should just get the mattress and use my old box spring with or without a plyboard. the problem is that i can't order the matching foundation later if i change my mind. not too sure that it would be easy to find a suitable foundation separately, later. would appreciate any suggestions. |

I would think that any traditional foundation would be suitable. I didn't order the slat foundation from Flobed when I got my latex mattress, I went down to my local mattress store and bought a regular foundation for $200 and had them deliver it. It's working fine. BTW I was browsing the Savvy Rest site FAQ and under their "Dunlop or Talalay?" link they make the following statement: "Some companies add “fillers” such as clay to make the latex go further. (If you find a Queen natural latex mattress for $1000 or less, there are fillers.)" This really makes me wonder whether the latex in these Costco beds has fillers. The price is *so* much lower than what the established latex mattress companies are offering. Has anyone ordered and had one delivered yet? If so, what's your experience been? |

Hi Mikey: Did you order the foundation and if so how is the quality? I originally ordered just the king size mattress and then my wife said that she wanted the matching foundation. She didn't want it to look like a mixed set. Any chance you can post some pictures? I looked on the Costco reviews and this is the only review so far which does not bode well.
"The delivery service was a bad experience. The guys called me at 7PM and showed up at 7:05 PM. The guy mentioned that it was his first experience delivering a king size mattress. He was reluctant to take the mattress out of the truck and he said that installation meant to leave the mattress at the curb outside the house. The guys dropped the mattress unfolded from the truck without using the truck built-in lift. They folded the mattress and did hit it against the handrail tearing the mattress off. Then they took the mattress back. One of the guys, said that he would come back tomorrow with another one, although, we have been waiting for over three weeks for the mattress to be delivered from another state. We expected a much better service from Costco. We do not intend to get another one from Costco. We'll probably buy another one locally from a Furniture store, where they have professional people handling delivery and installation better." |

Barry, Where did you find that delivery review? When I went to Costco's site and looked for reviews on the sleep science LATEX mattress, I couldn't find any. |

Philip: On the Costco web site, click on the king size with foundation and under details the review will come up. I had originally ordered just the mattress and then as I said in a previous post, I cancelled and ordered the foundation as well. They actually tried to deliver the cancelled mattress on the 22nd but we refused delivery. I think the bed and foundation are expected to arrive on January 5th and 'll keep everyone posted. On another note, I ordered the Nature's Rest Latex Pillows and they are unbelievable. We have been using them for about 3 weeks and love them. If the mattress is anything like the pillows we are going to be very happy. :) |
Re: New Natural Latex Beds on Sale Now at Costco
| Ordered this bed 12/14. They called today to arrange delivery on 12/31 so all in it will have taken less than two and a half weeks even with the holiday. The delivery service agreed to take away my old Cal King mattress for $75 and indicated they would deliver the new one to the master bedroom upstairs. I live in the San Francisco Bay area.... I will provide feedback on the bed after it's here and I've slept on it a bit... |

I did not order the foundation. I had a king box spring already so there was no need to order the foundation. As far as looking mismatched, I'm not sure even theirs match, but I could be wrong. The side portion of the mattress cover looks like a tan suede material with no quilting or pattern at all. I would be curious to see a closer picture, since the one on the costco site really doesn't look like it matches all that well. As far as the delivery service goes, that is contracted with various delivery companies. Mine came from a local moving and storage company, and was delivered with no problems. Why they would fold it is beyond me. I would not allow them to do that for fear they could damage the mattress. My delivery company carried it into my home in the box, and once they were in my bedroom they removed the packaging. These other guys sound like a bunch of morons. It's unfortunate for costco that they have to take the hit for someone else's imcompetence. I left it on the softer side and love it this way. It still feels fairly firm. I have always had problems with mattresses making my hips and shoulders hurt and fall asleep, hence, waking up several times in a night to roll to a different position. I can lay in one position for hours and have no discomfort, in fact the only time I usually wake up is if the Pee Gods come calling in the middle of the night. I do suffer from occasional lower back pain and have not had any since sleeping on this. The only negative was having to wait a couple of days before we could sleep on it to get rid of the smell. It had quite a strong odor of what reminded me of contact cement, but it almost completely went away after the 2nd day, and honestly that is my only complaint. I tried to post some pictures but could not figure out how to do it. |
