After extensive research online about latex mattresses, several visits to retail stores to test them, numerous calls to online vendors, and talking to Latex International, on January 8, 2010, my wife and I decided to purchase an Eastern King Select Sleep 10,000 Latex Mattress from Sleep EZ Factory.

Our bed arrived 6 days later in perfect condition, easy to put together (split layers / beautiful cover), after a week of getting use to sleeping on a latex bed, our sleeping experience has been incredible. We needed the rest and pampering that this bed has provided (my wife is an attorney and I’m a business owner, at the end of the day we are exhausted, as you all can imagine).

It is very refreshing and a pleasure dealing with Sleep EZ Factory, a company that is not only very professional, but honest and of great integrity.

Thank you Shawn (owner) for your advice and help on getting the right latex layer combination and comfort level. I will also like to extend our appreciation to Kristina, Jeremy and Nancy for all your help and great disposition.

We highly recommend Sleep EZ Factory for your next mattress purchase.

We purchased a Savvy Rest Serenity mattress with all natural Dunlop latex from The Natural Sleep Store . With free shipping and a $160 gift certificate to be used in their online store, we felt this was the best price for this mattress. The mattress was drop shipped from the manufacturer in Virginia. The customer service, packaging, instructions were all immaculate. The latex layers and mattress cover were shipped via UPS in sturdy 2'x2'x3' boxes and were not vacuum packed.

This Savvy Rest Serenity mattress is a three layer Dunlop latex mattress that can be ordered with the firmness layers of your choice - like SleepEZ, FloBeds, etc. We prefer the Dunlop latex over Talalay latex because we prefer a firmer, less bouncy mattress. The total depth is about 10 inches with the cover. Our mattress has firm, medium and soft layers - each of which are split so we can customize each side. Savvy Rest's ILDs are around 30 for soft, 35 for medium and 40 for firm - although one side of the latex is somewhat firmer than the other, These ILDs are just approximations. You can further customize by putting the firm side or the soft side up - for a total of six firmnesses (two per layer of latex). We put the soft side up for all but one of the half layers. My husband's side is a hair firmer with the firm layer firm side up.

The unbleached cotton twill mattress cover is very well made. It has a sturdy brass zipper so the entire top (which is quilted with and inch of wool batting) can be removed completely for dry cleaning. Getting an "organic" cover wasn't important to us but we do like the texture of the soft unbleached cotton twill better than the Damask or knit covers that other manufacturers offer. This cover is very sturdy yet flexible enough to feel the latex underneath.

We were very impressed with the customer service, attention to detail and advice from Savvy Rest. They advised us to try a soft/medium/firm configuration instead of the medium/medium/firm we had been thinking about. They said most exchanges were for softer layers. After trying several different configurations with these layers, we ended up liking the original firm on the bottom, medium in the middle, and soft on the top configuration best. It was nice to have the option to layer things differently if we had needed to.

I'd recommend looking at savvyrest.com very carefully and calling Savvy Rest for advice and information, then ordering from a retailer that offers free shipping ($219 from Savvy Rest) and possibly another perk. The mattress will ship directly from Savvy Rest. There are no returns.You can exchange latex layers free for 90 days but customer pays shipping both ways. Shipping for exchanging layers could get pricey. It is best to get it right the first time.

I purchased a Nature's Rest latex mattress and box set for approx.$2K in July 2003(Isis model)which came with a 20 year non prorated warranty.The mattress began to sag in the middle and got worse over time until I could not get a good nights rest so I contacted the store I purchased from in Florida and they informed me that my 20 year warranty was worthless because Spring Air(makers of Nature's Rest)had gone belly up! I have since purchased a new Tempur-Pedic set with a real 20 year warranty and am very pleased.I understand Spring Air is back in business all I can say is buyer beware!!!!
