Looking at their RV 8" Latex mattress (72x80). Has anyone bought from them, I can find little to no user comments anywhere online. Does anyone know about the firmness of Plushbeds Latex or the quality of the product? |
Thanks for the reply. Where did you find the ILD? I did not see it, however, I have sent them an email they have not answered. If they do I will post the reply here. This message was modified Jun 28, 2010 by RVNut

Actually the 8" has the 24ILD at top and a firmer Sri Lanka core underneath.
See 3rd paragraph under mattress construction. Sounds decent if that is the case, call them and ask questions.
But for like Sandman said RM has a 3" for little over $300, then order a firmer layer of 2" and 3" (equals 5") from another source, probably for $600 or more; total cost under $1,000 to make your own. This message was modified Jun 28, 2010 by Leo3

I would buy the dunlop base core and talalay topper cheaper elsewhere, if I was interested in this configuation. The RV mattress has a foam core, so it will not last as long. One could buy a firm PU base and talalay topper for less. |

You: Are both the top layer and the core layer natual latex? |
Hi Nut, We bought the Plushbeds Eco Green latex RV mattress in May. We have an Airstream and needed a customized king with rounded corners at the bottom. I considered their bedroom latex mattress, but I was told the king size 8" latex mattress (with a natural latex core) was over 130 lbs, which would have been too heavy for our RV. The Eco Green RV mattress has a Latex International 100% natural talalay latex (not blended) top layer with their soy-based, plushfoam core & is designed to be lighter (65-70 lbs) which makes a difference when you travel as much as we do. I faxed a diagram to them with the dimensions of the custom cut corners & they made it exactly to the specifications I sent. They charge a 10% customization fee to customize an RV mattress, including rounded corners, which is cheaper than any of the other places I called, but because were AAA members, they waived the customization fee completely. They also don't charge for shipping. We received notification that it was shipped 6 days after placing the order. When we received it, it was roll packed which helped to get it into the RV. I placed the roll on the platform, opened the bag, & it came right to it's normal shape in a few minutes. From what I read about latex off gassing, I thought I would need to air it out, however there really weren't any odors to speak of. The mattress has a very high quality apparence & the rounded corners fit my platform perfectly. From a comfort perspective, it is a bit on the firmer side, but is day and night from my old mattress. The old mattress we had seemed to sink too much & gave me back problems, but I have not had that experience on this mattress. Overall, I would definately buy this mattress again. Hope that helps.
