I put 2" of fairly soft talalay on top of our hard innerspring bed, and after a week of sleeping on it my wife says its too hard, and I find myself having backaches the next day even though I am very comfortable all night in the bed. I went looking for an eggcrate just to see how softening it a bit would work, but can find only really crappy thin PU eggcrates, or fairly expensive memory foam ones. Any suggestions on the best way to soften it a bit? I'd be tempted to try another inch of really soft latex, don't really want to buy more expensive latex after my results with the first piece. But I also don't see the point in covering the expensive latex we have now with a cheaper foam, and loosing the premium latex "feel". I can also recall hearing some theories here about using a thin layer of memory foam over latex but don't recall the details. |
Just was cutting through Bon Ton (dept store) and noticed they had a bunch of half price deals on mem foam topper, but still all in the $60-$200 range. I asked the girl if they had any cheap PU foam toppers and she said they had closed them all out but might have a few orphans in the back. Came back with a king size for $29. On examination it turned out to be 1-1/2" convoluted, made-in-USA, memfoam, with an original sticker price of $110! Maybe not Sensus but probably close enough to be worth trying, especially considering the price. |
