I am looking at buying the mattress found here...

https://www.sleepwarehouse.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=26

  • 4" Sensus 5lb Memory Foam - top comfort layer 13 ILD
  • 3" Medium 1.8 HR 28 ILD Base Layer
  • 3" Firm 1.8 HR 35 ILD Base Layer
but after reading through this site I am thinking that We might sink too much...  I'm 165 and the wife is 120. What does latex feel like? soft, spongy? Is it better to add latex to a memory foam top layer and then more foam underneath this? Would it be better to just order this:

3" Sensus from Sleepwarehouse
2" Talalay Latex Foam Topper Soft (20 ILD) from FBM
2" Talalay Latex Foam Topper Medium (32 ILD) from FBM
3" HD36-HQ Foam FBM

or

Something else? Would it also be wise to add a 1 or 2" latex of 20 above or below the sensus?

I just got an email reply back from FBM. They said that the latex will be shipping out today w/ tracking #.

I will be building a platform bed for the mattress tonight actually. We'll see how it all looks when finished.
