I am looking at getting a Sealy Spring free Beachside...Plush Model. It felt pretty good at the store. The mattress and box spring are on Sale at Mattress Giant now for $1700.

If over time the factory top layer of poly foam breaks down over some time and becomes uncomfortable. If if in fact that does happen, why could I not just cut the mattress open and pull out the 7 inches of core latex inside and then order a new King Talalay topper in the desired firmness. I realize that it may be a bit more expensive in the long run, but I am not comfortable ordering all these latex foam pieces separately for now.
