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.)

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!
