Sleep EZ vs. FloBeds top layer
| Sleep EZ just has regular latex layer on the top of their mattresses. FloBeds has some sort of "convoluted latex topper" that looks like an egg crate looking layer. Any comments on the differences? |

Very soft latex will compress. To avoid hammocking go with the 1.4" on top rather than the 2.8". Personally I would rather have a uniform layer of soft latex as a topper than a convoluted topper. I think it's just more likely to flatten out. I bought a SleepEZ mattress and found the medium, firm, extra firm combination too firm. I had them send out the soft layer, but found that 2.8" of 20 ILD latex was far too soft. It provided no support and was very uncomfortable after a few hours. SleepEZ has since changed the ILD on their soft layer to 24. To me this is still too soft for a 2.8" layer, but might make a comfy topper at 1.4". While SleepEZ has a very nice product the disadvantage of ordering from them is the one exchange they allow and the restocking fee if you find it just isn't working for you. Flobeds gives you more time and an unlimited number of exchanges to get it right. And no restocking fee if you can't. |

| I just want to add that I ended up only going with a 1" topper that is supposed to be a medium firmness over my very firm ILD latex cores (39 ILD over a 36 ILD over a 44 ILD on one side with the other side of the bed having the 44 ILD in the middle of the bed so I can switch sides depending on how my back is feeling that day). A 2" topper was too soft for me due to my petite size. So if someone is small like me and wants a very firm bed, maybe get a thinner topper. Someone bigger needs a thicker topper since they will sink in more. |
