Where is cheapest to buy 1" very soft latex
| Someone in another thread mentioned using Latex International's 19 ILD blended talalay for a topper. I have been using one that is probably a 24 ILD and would like to try a softer one. I don't really care if it's Talalay or natural as long as it's not Dunlop. (Do they even make Dunlop in low ILD? I doubt it.) |

| Thanks for the recommendations. I'm going to check overstock.com but I don't think they have latex, do they? |

It's $52.99 in the twin size. Here's the link: http://www.foambymail.com/LatexTTwin.html Thanks. I checked their site. I THINK 18 is the lowest you can get, so 20 is pretty soft. I wish I knew what ILD the one I have is. I THINK it's around 24 but not sure. I'd like something just a little softer, but what if I buy one and it turns out to be the same as the one I have? That's the problem. I'll have to think about this... |

Check out sleeplikeabear.com... they have softer than FBM's and a very good track record... while slightly more than FBM's 18-20 ILD, I think they may be the cheapest for Talalay softer than 18 ILD. This message was modified Sep 16, 2009 by Vaphils

Re: Where is cheapest to buy 1" very soft latex
| I've read in a few posts that people think the International Latex talalay is softer than the FBM talalay for the same ILD rating. (FBM latex runs a bit hard for the rating). |

Foambymail seems to be the clear winner for price... Dunlop, from what I know, makes a better base than a topper. (though I could be wrong) Sleeplikeabear sounds great in the super soft ild BUT it's a LOT more expensive. If money were no object I'd probably go for that one, though.

| I agree--i'd love to see what SLAB's 19ILD latex feels like, but FBM wins for price! |
