I was one that said I thought 3" was too much soft foam.
I would go with something in the 20-28ILD range, maybe just 1" of something softer and 1" of something harder. Ideal would be 22 on top of 28 I think. I am using something like a 24-28 over a 32 - both Talalay, the 32 is natural, not sure what the other on is or what the ILD is for the other one but I"m guessing 24-28ILD.

I have the Sensus from Overstock but I bought 2" and I think 2" is too much. I don't use it. My wife was using it and it was fine for awhile but then it felt too soft. I traded it out for the 1" Venus foam which we now all know is not "True" "Venus", but an imposter. But it feels about like the Sensus and 1" is working for her as a topper.

been a few days now, better than the tempurpedic in that i dont wake up in pain but may be too soft

so, on advice from someone here I ordered a one inch sensus foam from overstock, I figure one inch is enough as all I want is the feel of foam but the firmness of the latex bed that is underneath...for the price, $69, it was a no brainer

If i do like it better than the 3 inch right temp topper i bought at costco i can return it for the $190 it cost...will be about a week before i get it so will update you then

You know I have been going on and on about how great Costco's return deal is and it is, I was told you could have them pick up anything that you coudlnt take to a store, anything.....

Is true but then I read on the website that it has to be packaged the same way it was delivered, that is almost impossible with beds as bed packaging is usually taken away by the guys that deliver the new bed to you, so I have emailed them and we will see what they say about that.


This matters as I may or may not keep the latex bed they sent me, I still have to go to flobeds one day and lay on theirs...to see the difference.  Since they are so close it would be a crime for me not to.

Randy, are you saying that costco latex bed is soft?
Then are you thinking of returning it back to costco?
I am close to dallas, so is there any flobeds close by me?
thanks randy.

II don't want to speak for him, but in previous posts he said the Coscto dunlop latex mattress was too firm.  He added the 3" memory foam from Costco, and that makes it too soft.  So, now he looking for a 1" topper.

I have wondered why you didn't do this at the start, since you've been fooling around with mattesses for months now.

Oh randys..............................

I saved the plastic that my bed came wrapped in and the moving company supplied the box!! DO NOT think for one minute that you can't return the bed because you don't have the original packaging. Did you purchase it with a credit card? WE, the consumer, have ALL the rights. I always thought you couldn't return a bed, not true after reading this site. Have no fear my dear!
