How do i tell what quality of the Polyurethane foam is in a new bed?

I am thinking of buying an Aireloom Hybrid for $3000.00  and want to know how i can find out if the poly foam in the pillow top is high quality or not.  Does anyone know how i can find out?  Sales people and Aireloom staff are not helpful.

I have verified that the latex (54%) is very high quality and there is only a tiny bit of memory foam (5%) so i just need to find out how good the poly foam is.... 

thanks to all.....

Only thing I can think of is to play detective and find out who the poly foam supplier might be to Kluft / Aireloom.  If you find that out, then you could know more about the types of product lines they make.   I think it might be hard to find out though.

I think the Carpenter Co. makes a lot of urethane foams.  Start there.

If you ask those that have been on this forum for a long time, the words high quality used in conjunction with polyurethane foam is almost always an oxymoron.  Polyfoam was never used in mattresses because it was 'better' than any other materials...it's used because its cheaper.
