I tried a foam combo at a store that makes foam mattresses today.  The topper was a 4lb 3 inch memory foam and felt very good (no pressure points after laying there for about an hour).  Then, when we got to the point of discussing a custom job, the owner recommended I go with the 5lb. memory foam instead of the 4lb., stating it would be more durable.  When I asked if it would feel firmer than the 4 lb.I had been laying on, he was very adament that it would feel exactly the same - just be more durable, but no, he didn't have a 5lb. topper for me to try.  Hmmm, I am suspicious.  Anyone have any thoughts on this?
