Since I've decided to stay away from memory foam, does anyone know of a source for a zippered quilted mattress case around 12"? Something like SleepEZ uses in their mattresses and not a thin terry cloth. I'm not finding any of these online latex mattress companies selling just the case.

Call Dewey at FloBeds and ask about the availablility of a demo cover. I was able to buy a cover from them that had been returned under their 90-night comfort guarantee. They professionally clean them and mine looked good as new.

That said, the FoamOrder case sounds like a fair deal.

FloBeds mattress case costs $624.00! Foamorder is looking like a good price now. I couldn't find an email address for SleepEZ.



Yes, but keep in mind that Flobeds' cover is organic !!!

I don't think Foamorder's is.

For my $270 it would need to be orgasmic.

Cancer is organic and I can live without that.

I was simply pointing out the reason as to why Flobeds' more expensive, because otherwise it's like compairing apples to oranges. Organic fabrics are much more expensive to produce (and buy).

Now, choosing not to pay more for an organic cover is a personal decision.

Sorry Ali, it was a poor attempt at humor on my part.

I received this from foamorder.com on their Diamond Quilted Mattress Covers:

Subject: Re: Product information enquiry
 
Steve,
 
We can customize Diamond Quilted Mattress Covers in different thicknesses.  The thickness refers to the opening of the case that enclosed that mattresses.  For example, if you had a 6" foam mattress and enclosed it in a 6" covers then you would have an overall thickness of 8" due to the 2" pillow top.  You will appreciate the high-end luxury of this diamond quilted pillow top case. This case increases breathability and moisture wicking. It removes the "hot" sensation commonly caused by foam mattresses. They are constructed using extra loft fiberfill and 1" of premium natural resilient latex foam. They are warranted for 15 years not to flatten out or form body impressions. impressions. Compare this with big brand names that only use a 1.5 to  1.8 lb/ft3 foam for thousands of dollars more. The medium firmness pillow top adds an extra 2" of thickness. You may order this diamond quilted mattress case in any custom thickness, size, or shape.

The price for a new Eastern King Diamond Quilted Case in either a 12" or 10" is $351.85 plus shipping.

Seems a little expensive, but they do look nice.


Steve, unless I am reading it wrong, it appears if you order this from the clearance page, you can get it for $250.58 (item #4).

Yeah, I actually saw one yesterday in a 13" (a little too thick - I would need to get 3 more inches of LUX) for about $207. I'll take a look again.

Hows the 20/32 ILD latex feeling?

It was a good night last night.  Previously I had 4" of Sensus 5.2# (IIRC) foam over 5" of JC Penney firm foam, and while I'd sink in deeply, I still had hip and shoulder pressure points.  With the new mattress I don't feel like I am sinking in at all yet the pressure points are gone.

I can feel the firmness of the Lux foam underneath the latex and the first night it bothered me.  The next day I ordered 2 inches more of 32ILD latex, this may have been a waste.  If I had to do it again, I think I'd get 2" of 20ILD and 4" of 32ILD, but it is tough to speculate whether it would get me that perfect feel.
