i have a sleepez bed that I keep trying to soften by adding more layers of foam in the case. So I now have 4.5 layers in a case meant for 3 layers. The case still zips, but I wonder if I am compressing the foam so much that it is affecting the feel. I have talalay latex, which always felt springy to me, but I am wondering if this made it more springy? Or if this is bad for the foam? |
Yeah I will keep testing. You have a talalay medium and dunlop soft also? But you are sleeping on the talalay soft over medium dunlop over firm dunlop? I wonder if when you are talking about like 36 ILD and above that talalay and dunlop at the same ILDs feel about the same? I am male 6"2" and 190. At this point I am not worried about pressure points, just trying to get a combo that I can wake up without back pain. I guess I need to be patient. Thanks |
Phoenix went into a lot of detail in this thread about dunlop vs talalay - I forget the exact terms but dunlop gets firmer faster as it compresses. So firm dunlop vs firm talalay might feel the same uncompressed, but as soon as you lay on it and compress it the dunlop will feel firmer. As I said I think you might be fine with just the 1 layer of dunlop on the extra firm core. Give that a try. I don't mind "helping" you but I'm not one of the experts here. Thats why I suggested you start a new thread... |
