It's 2.8" of memory foam over 3" latex over the core= 10" total. Of course, curiosity was eating me up on this one. The whole reason we didn't go with TP is b/c my husbdand doesn't like the sinking & the slow recover of the foam in TP and the Sealy Embody is more 'bouncy' if you can even say that about memory foam.

So, while I was running out this morning, I stopped into a local store that I knew carried the Bellafina model (many of them do not). Wow. I was quite impressed! It's pretty firm, but also soft. It has a nice feel of memory foam, but not too much sinking really- just a little bit of contouring- just enough perhaps. The foam is DEFINITELY more quickly recovering than other TP models. In fact, it's almost immediate recovery when you move or press your hand into it.

While I do very much like the Sealy Embody Introspection thus far (~4-5 weeks) and I'm sleeping well with little to no back pain, I do have just a hint of buyers remorse now. Mostly b/c I *think* I have a bit more faith in the quality of TP long term and frankly it's just been around a lot longer than the Embody line.

Not going to jump ship on the Embody, but I do have a year to return and the store where I purchased it from could get the Bellafina. So, we'll see how the Embody performs for several more months and if there are any signs of trouble, I think I'm going to seriously consider getting the Bellafina instead.

For those debating b/t memory foam and latex- the Bellafina seemed like a nice middle ground with some of the benefits of both together. So, for what it's worth, it thought I'd share. If you can find one near you, it's certainly one to check out!
