    Adjustable Bed Advice

    Sorry about the delayed response. I use an iPad all the time these days, and for some reason the post section doesn't trigger the keyboard to come up, so I have to write my post in 'notes' then copy and paste. PITA! On the sheets question. Well, I'm a real comfort person. My husband once...

    Ergo base with DIY mattress?

    You sure can. They recommend that latex is the best mattress to use on an electric base (which is what I assume you mean by 'ergo'). Slats are recommended for the extra breathability, but latex is quite porous, and the experts we spoke to had no hesitation in saying there would be no problems...

    Help - choosing celsion latex topper

    If it's not, you can always add something slightly firmer between the soft topper and the mattress, or add another inch of the same. I think you'll be very happy with it though. It will certainly make a great difference. When we went to stay at our friends cottage last week, I took a 2 inch...

    Help - choosing celsion latex topper

    I'm a bit lighter than you, and though I love the softer cushier toppers, and it may be just what you need to add a bit more Cush, I truly think that you will go right through the 15 ild and still feel the hard mattress underneath. My experience with a topper over a hard mattress seemed...

    Adjustable Bed Advice

    I'm sure I'm too late as you must have bought something by now, but for others that may be interested: We got the Land P Prodigy. The snore feature is definitely a bit gimmicky, because you need to get your hands on your partners remote to activate it, and of course that is on their bedside...

    Long post about my bedding tribulations and final relief through our purchase from Custom Sleep Desi

    I agree that the zoning custom sleep design uses is pretty genius. I also tried regular layering. The problem was if I had the latex as soft as I needed it for my shoulder comfort (I'm a side sleeper, too), I would hammock under the hips. With the layers softer under the shoulders, they sink...

    St. Dormeir and Adjustable beds

    I also have an adjustable bed and the st dormier. They're absolutely wonderful with our 12' latex mattresses. If only the fitted sheets were as easy to put on and stayed on as well! Mine just saved my brand new mattress cover from being stained. It should wash out of the Dormier fine, but...

    Any advice on this DIY latex setup?

    My experience is that anything over 2 inches in soft (for me that would be 24 ild and below) caused lower back pain. I weigh less than you though at 120 pounds, so that probably factors into it. But I would be wary of using any more than 3 inches of soft latex. Good idea to buy in increments!

    Costco Nature's Caress 12" Latex

    We bought a similar set up for a the same price from Custom Sleep Design but with the newer top of the line adjustable called Prodigy. 11 inch latex mattress (not including the inch or so from the wool in the cover). The mattresses zip open, and CSD will do comfort exchanges until you are...

    Long post about my bedding tribulations and final relief through our purchase from Custom Sleep Desi

    I spent weeks reading through posts on the 'what's the best mattress forum' as well as any other websites I could before I took the plunge to buy our new bed. Furthermore, I've had our new bed for a few months, so I think that the 'new purchase glow' has worn off enough to allow me to give a...
