I have been reading many of the posts on this forum but I am no closer to an answer.  My son is moving out of his crib into a twin bed.  For his 2nd birthday I am making over his nursery to be a big boy room.  I want to make this redo as "green" as possible and not be adding a bunch of chemicals to his room.  The mattress part of this project just has be stumped.  I believe I want a 100% natural latex mattress, firmer core and softer top, and wool or other natural cover.  No flame retardant chemicals!  However being a thrifty mama I am having a hard time with the prices I have seen from Flobeds and others recommended here.  I thought about foam by mail but I'm a little leary of them.  Anyone have a recommendation (even better a link!) for a twin size latex mattress hopefully under 600?  Or at least close to it?  Also it can't be a super mattress because it is going on a bottom bunk bed.  

Many thanks!  I need to purchase something asap because his birthday is in a couple weeks.

Mattress received today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Received mattress that I ordered a little over two weeks ago.  Since they don't usually keep the 6" talalay cores in stock they said it would be a little extra time.  When my order was going to be delayed they called and asked if that was OK or if I needed to cancel my order.  They also called again to say it was shipping.  Great customer service.  So when I got my order today it was beautifully packaged.  I think the box said it weighed 55lbs so I moved it into the bedroom myself.  I had ordered the 6 inch med core with terry cover (to stay in my small budget) but when I opened the box there was the 6" core with organic cotton and wool zipper cover!!!  It didn't look exactly like what they showed on the website so maybe it was a random extra they had around???  Either way I'm thrilled.  They did offer me several cover options when I was ordering but I mentioned the budget I was staying in and there was absolutely no pressure to push me to spend more.  I look forward to ordering from them again as soon as I have the money to upgrade my bed!  Sleepez was a pleasure to work with.

 

Did I mention my son's new mattress is very very comfortable?!?!
