Hi,

 

I have a FloBed latex bed.  I'm wanting to try some innersprings as a base for the bed.  Flobeds doesn't sell innersprings as a base, but apparently a 1 or 2 inch topper.

I'm looking for something similar to this construction 

magnolia mattress

 
But since this retails for ~$3000 and I have everything but the springs, was wondering if one knows of a place where they can be purchased individually.

I haven't been around this forum as long as some folks have, but I've seen this question come up a couple of times. From what I've seen, no one has identified a source which explicitly sells innersprings without all the wrappings. Someone (I think Budgy) said that maybe the best bet would be to talk to local mattress manufacturers and see if they would sell you one. I don't see why they wouldn't! Usually, there are local mattress outfits it seems around most urban centers. Another idea someone suggests is just to buy the cheapest mattress you can find with decent springs and then do mattress surgery, but it seems a bit of a waste, doesn't it?

Good luck - please keep us posted if you are able to find some. Some of us would be very interested to read a success story on that!
