We went to Leon, Canadian store, today and well had a pushy saleman, hate that... didn't get a bed but will be in may and god I so wanna get something good.  I heard latex is that best, but is it just some latex or all?  They didn't have that many latex beds there, only one fully latex and a few that had latex pads, which is better?  Please some advice.  I'm so super confused now after going there, and salesman lie... alot.

 

Thank you!

Sealy springs....pretty good.

Sealy upholstery....not so good. 

If latex is what you want....then staying away from the really big names is usually a good idea.  Perhaps one of the truly best reasons most people want to buy latex is so they can stay away from standard polyurethane foams.  In a coil mattress in Sealy's line today you will have anywhere between .5" and 2" of latex foam in the upholstery, usually with atleast 3" or more standard foams which will still break down.  Even in their latex beds, they sometimes use this much standard polyurethane.  There are good brands out there you can check out in person....most of them will be a little more money than the Sealy's you have been looking at.  Where abouts are you located?

In Canada its going to be very difficult to get a proper latex bed under $2,000 in a queen however there are places that carry them.  You can get into a good Natura or Sueno latex mattress for around that price or a little bit higher.  In any event the point there is that you are going to get a product that delivers the basic benefits of the material itself.

Yeah, "Sealy" is a GREAT brand name! Ask the average person, "Sealy" means "Posturepedic" which is a highly recognized name, thus Sealy is a good brand name.

If you're asking if they make good mattresses.... the answer, in a word, would be "No". (IMHO)
