Me: 5'11" 230lbs (side, stomach sleeper but can deal with anything)
Her: 5'6" 115lbs (side, back sleeper but sleeps very hot)

We've tried several different beds and we've found one that we really like.

Simmons Romana P/T Plush King Size located at Mattress Giant.

We liked that the bed felt cool, laying on it for 15-20 minutes was still cool.  We didn't like the tempurpedic because we sank too far into it (delux model) and could feel the foam reforming around us when we moved.  

From the marketing material it's (from top layer to base)

1 1/2" NXG w/ gel lining 
1/2" latex
2" memory foam 
on top of coils.

It looks like it's the Simmons Beautyrest NXG bed http://www.simmons.com/products/brands/beautyrest/collection.cfm#nxg

I was looking at going with this setup

 

6" core 36ILD talalay latex
2" mid-core 32 ILD talalay latex
2" topper 20 ILD talalay latex
 
Am I wasting my time trying to recreate the mattress we liked?  FBM would cost $1300 ish where the mattress we liked was $3500.
