What exactly is so bad about PU foam?
|
I get that its not natural but to get a mattress that is truly ALL natural costs a pretty penny. I also understand the resentments towards the S brands selling "Latex" mattresses with PU cores and latex tops with deceptive marketing and at a massive mark up . But there are many non S company brands out there selling PU foam core w/ latex beds at a quarter of what a full latex setup would cost - unless one has been fortunate enough to discover the wonders of the foam by mail all latex DIY bed. Does it come down the fact that PU foam just doesn't last? Is that the essence of the aversion that people seem to have? Surely there are variations wthin the class that would allow for some to be superior to others. When assessing foam top layers or cores is there a density or an ILD to look for? Like is 2.0 lb density not enough ? Given $600 wouldn't it be wiser to get a foam bed than a lower end S brand? (Just for the sake of the argument) I do wonder...
