I need to buy a new mattress. It's been fourteen years since my last mattress. I don't know which to by I have read so many reviews. So the question is how good our the no flip mattress? Thinking of buying a latex foam mattress. I am just scared not to buy a two sided mattress.

Comparing latex mattresses to spring mattresses is like comparing apples to oranges. Latex should retain its resiliency for many years, precluding the need to flip it.

Hey mboesch,  I would suggest you go with a flippable mattress, if you can find a good one.  They are few and far between these days....Also, since a pure latex mattress is a rather new item/concept in the States,  the longevity of such a mattress is speculative at best. It is just another hot "new" product at a high cost.  And over time, the latex core will certainly be compromised by varied temperatures and wear.  Most mattresses today are one sided, which is mainly a marketing ploy by manufacturers to sell you literally, half a mattress, for double what it is worth in content. With a flippable one, you have quality product on both sides.  Check out the varied reveiws here and pull up websites for name brand companys that make one sided beds and then try two sided mattresses with real spring in them, no foam. Don't forget to read more on pure latex beds.  Good luck and happy shopping...it can be quite the nightmarish ordeal!.
