There was an earlier post on this board suggesting that Rockymountain doesn't sell a full mattress, but it seems that they do: http://www.rockymountainmattress.com/8inchnaturallatexmattress-p-89.html ... and it seems relatively inexpensive at ~$1299 for a queen 8" latex + 1" wool. That noted, is there any concern about this mattress? It seems that Rockymountain has been suggested on this board for their latex toppers, but I haven't heard word about the full mattress. Thanks in advance!

Is that just an 8" core, with nothing else on top of it? or what?
I would think that 8" of Dunlop would kill me if it's anything like the 1 and 3/4" piece of Medium I got from SleepEZ which I do believe they said was Latex Green.
This might work for some - surely it would; but for me, that thing was WAAAAAYYY to firm and had no give to it like the similar Talalay piece I bought.

I would think that it would HAVE to have 1-2" of a very low ild Dunlop (if not Talalay) on top of it in order for it not to be way too firm for most people.

I did look at an Englander all -latex mattress years ago, though, and was quite impressed. The only reason we did not buy it was they offered zero sleep trial. If they'd have offered at least 30 days to try it, I'd have bought it. But they said they couldn't because whatever gets returned they give to some Goodwill or somewhere... So they quit offering a return/exchange.

Now of course, I am sleeping on Englander springs, which seem very good, with my own latex added on top of them.

Do you own or work for Rocky Mountain Mattress?  Or just someone who knows?  Is is not the blended talalay latex then?  Is it the natural talalay?

Jim,  they had 2 models on the floor.   One appeared to be the solid core of about 8 inches...but who knows, since it was sealed.  Maybe there was a slightly softer layer on top under the cover.  This unit was very firm!   The other mattress  had a similar base but also about a 1.5 inch "pillow top" of a softer material.....I assume latex.     This whole mattress was much softer than the other model.  Sorry I don't have more info but I was not there shopping for a matress.
