I bought a mattress from Sleep EZ about a month ago and I'm having some issues that I thought would be good to get some feedback on. I purchased a mattress with 2 dunlop cores (1 medium firmness, 1 firm) and a soft 2 inch tallalay topper. I'm six foot three and weigh 220 pounds but I'm finding this mattress to be very firm. I've tried every configuration of layers with this mattress but it feels like the dunlop latex is pushing back against my body and creating a feeling of pressure rather than producing a yielding, yet firm support. I'm wondering from those who have experience, if I switched out the dunlop cores for tallalay cores, would the tallalay have a more yielding quality but be supportive at the same time? Thanks for your help.

100% natural botanically grown latex is more dense than blended latex. This makes good sense because petrochemical-based latex is lighter in weight than 100 % natural. And since blended latex is 70% petroleum-based this makes proper sense. My experience testing the two products is very limited as I only had one piece of blended and I only had it for a few weeks. I just felt that the hundred percent natural was more to my liking. To each their own. |

Thanks all for your input. I'm going to give my current configuration a try for a few more nights but I will most likely be swapping out my medium firm dunlop core for a medium firm tallalay core.

When I first got into this, the middle of last year, after reading all I could find on the Internet, I came to the conclusion that I wanted a bed that was principally Dunlop. Due to a rather convoluted experience, that I'm not going to go into here, I wound up with a 100% natural all Talalay mattress. I was told at the time that Talalay was superior to Dunlop from the standpoint of comfort. Never having slept on Dunlop I cannot confirm this. All I can tell you is that my natural Talalay has worked out quite well for me and I'm glad that this is what I purchased. |
