My wife and I have just purchased a new mattress set from Flobeds.com and wanted to get a few recommendations based on our first week of sleeping on the new setup and other's experience with latex mattresses.

We previously had a Nautilus Duo-Flex King that was right at 20 years old and decided it was time to replace it, although a couple of years ago we did purchase 2" memory foam from Wal-Mart to see if it might help.  We liked the softness it added, but it also added heat... and really did not help with my tossing and turning all night long.  So... we decided to go with the Flobed systems since we can swap out until we get it right.

We started out with the following from top to bottom using the 2" Convoluted Pad on a Euro Slat Foundation:

Me @ 240lbs

XFirm vZone

XFirm

SuperFirm

Wife @ 175lbs

Firm vZone

Firm

XFirm

 

On the positive side... it is much cooler than the old mattress w/ the memory foam.  On the negative side... I have come to the conslusion that my side is a bit firm for me... espceically in the mid section.  It is as if I can feel a hump that bothers me.  I still toss and turn and cannot seem to get comfortable. 

My wife stated she definitely felt it was too firm for her just after the first few nights.  Dewey shipped out a Medium layer yesterday for her side.  I thought maybe we could try taking out the XFirm on hers, moving the Firm to the bottom and adding the Medium in the middle. 

On my side, I may take out my SuperFirm, move the XFirm down to the bottom, vZone to the middle and try her XFirm on top to see if that will relieve some of that mid-section pressure I am feeling.

It may ultimately be that we don't really need the vZone, but we will see.

 

I am curious as to anyones thoughts or similar experiences. 

 

Thanks!
