This site is godsend. There are so many posters here giving good info. But I would like to go to a retail location and try sleeping on a talalay/dunlop mattress. Are there any retailers that carry 100% latex mattresses in dallas or ft worth locations? These are the only 2 big cities that I can...

Budgy, many many thanks. Are there any retail stores in USA where I can go and get some of these Egyptian cotton and Pima sheets? It is hard to buy over internet when you can't see/touch the sheets. Thus I would like to go to a retail store and get them. Thanks budgy.

To Budgy: Budgy thanks for all the helpful posts. Some questions from me. 1 Which latex lasts longer and which one does not sag? Synthetic talalay or Natural talalay? 2. what is the softest dunlop latex? who is making it? 3. For me I am having low back pains. Should I be choosing synthetic...

Thank you budgy but it still leaves some questions unanswered. 1. what are damask sheets 2. What are jersey sheets. Jim, I don't find jersey sheets hot. I don't know why you say that? Are you talking about some other sheets? 3. How do I identify if Egyptian cotton sheets are really of good...

Today I went around looking for sheets but could not decide. I found 1 Egyptian cotton sheets - Does cotton in them come from Egypt? 2 Pima cotton sheets - what is Pima cotton? 3 Jersey sheets some of which were cotton while others were a blend of cotton and polyster. What are jersey sheets? 4...

budgy wrote: I just spent a bit of time on both websites trying to do some objective comparisons. I believe you get what you pay for in both cases. I compared the SleepEZ 10,000 and the Flobeds Posture Deluxe...if both are using all natural latex the SleepEZ is 1825 and the FloBeds...

I filled out Flobeds chart on their web site - the weight, level of comfort etc. I wanted a soft surface and it gave me this: bottom layer xfirm, layer above it xfirm and the v zone layer as xfirm! I am confused, why would it give me xfirm layers and even vzone as xfirm? my weight is 221 lbs...

budgy wrote: I agree with Jim, just incase you are one of the people that might find latex just doesn't work for you. Thanks,I appreciate your advice. I have some questions. 1 what should I buy? Blended talalay latex or Natural talalay latex? 2 I sleep on my sides. What layer configuration...

which one should I get. If tempurpedic which one - 1. cloud lux/allura? I got rhapsody and it began to give me aches and pains after a month or so, so I returned it. 2. latex mattress - I got all dunlop mattress and it began to give me pains the first day! It was too firm. So I am leaning to...
