Re: Restonic Healthrest 100% natural latex - Kait

A local guy here sells Restonic, and like JIM, they sell a lot of hype without a lot of substance or numbers to back it up. I got TWO Restonic beds from him a few years ago...the first one was nice but got a butt-dent within three months. Returned it , he said it MUST be faulty, so got a pillowtop of the same mattress....heavenly....but then the butt-dent appeared and I took that one back too. I'm friends with the guy, so watched as he went through the different mattresses...flavors of the month, I like to call it, and he was all big on the latex ones for awhile. They came all decompressed in a bag, then once it is opened, they swelled up. It was nothing more than a piece of latex. Nothing fancy. I think it had a cover on it. Whoopie.
So, visited him again a couple of...

Beanie: Thank you for the response. When you indicate that they do not offer organic, what do you mean?
This company claims to be selling Talalay latex foam from Europe. Is it a blended latex foam? Part synthetic and part natural rubber?
This is the problem with so much of the mattress marketing today. It is so difficult to really find out what the actual product is. I have lived my life around synthetic latex without any problems. But I have never owned a bed that was purely a synthetic bed. The problem with synthetic latex is that the quality can be all over the place due to the fact that there are no government regulations stating what the product must be. This business about the "organic latex" I believe is over hyped. They are selling a great deal against synthetics. In the end what is really important...

I am sure it is, just not on the corp. web sites. In fact I have learned more from you about Sealy and S&F than anywhere else. And I have been in the hunt for several weeks now, night and day!
I feel you must work for them or else you are in the mattress business some way. I seem to hear "vestested interest" speaking. Nothing wrong with this. But at the same time it does tend to shape your point of view.....yes?
You also said: "First, regarding the Stearns you mentioned, you don't want all organic latex. You wouldn't enjoy it, it'd be hot and wouldn't last long." Alex this fly's in the face of everything I have read in my several week,...

Hi Don,
I wrote a response to yoiur post in the thread "Savvy Rest Repot" which may give you more info. I have the 4 layer all-natural talalay, with the very top layer being the convulted "eggcrate" piece) I didn't word my response above very well. Basically I need a soft top layer (not counting the convuluted layer), but am trying to find the right combo of softness and support overall. If I put a medium layer on top, I don't find it soft enough.
I find the top soft core gets a bit depressed in the middle where my hips are, and am concerned especially over the long term.I only sleep on one side of the bed so have not experienced the "split" problem that Chris is having.

Thanks Jimsocal and Don for your comments. I have the all natural talalay with 3 3" layers and the thin convulted ("eggcrate") talaly on top. I have a chronic illness and pain and need quite a soft top layer but with very good support overall. I sleep primarily on my side (and some on my back) and am 5'51/2", about 130 lbs.
I have the 2 sides of a queen set up differently so have tried every possible combination I think! Nothing works unless I have soft on top ; have tried medium on top and it's just not soft enough for me (in terms of relieving pressure points). Currently, on the side I sleep on, I have it set up with soft on top, then 2 firms, which is the combination I've slept the most on.

Jimsocial and Linda:
I have no idea which of the FlowBeds you both have purchased. The one I have looked at with FlowBeds was the all natural 4 layer mattress. This mattress has a top layer that is a two inch soft convoluted Talalay. The three layers beneath the top layer can be any degree of firmness you wish to have. They even have an extra firm layer that is a blend of Talalay and synthetic Talalay to get a more firm consistency. So I do not know why you cannot have a soft top layer and anything from soft to extra firm beneath this top layer.
So I would think that if you have this mattress you can have a soft top layer and any degree of firmness under it that will work for you. As you have both mentioned the customer service at Flowbeds is excellent and they will...

Hi Steve: Well my friend you are going through right now what I am about to go through. I have been doing all the reading and trying to ascertain who has the best price, and better business bureau reports, and return policies etc. now that I have narrowed it down to a couple of companies I have to decide between talalay and dunlop and firmness layers. Not an easy process when there is no dealer close by where I can try out the mattresses.
So next week I am going out of state to a dealer and actually lay down on the various configurations. From what you are saying in your post you made a mistake by erring on the side of firmness. From everything I am reading, your experience would've been entirely different had you chosen talalay. Talalay seems to me to be a much more "springy" type of latex...

This is exactly why I am posting this question here. I want to buy a good mattress, but can't find much info from manufactures web sites. I am from a small town, and do know the store owner. He is recommending this mattress, and it is what he sleeps on. If I buy it and don't like it, I can return it....

Hi,
I have just joined this site in the pursuit of a new mattress for my room. I have never slept on a latex mattress,I have slept on an innerspring with a tempurpedic topper ,but from what I have researched thus far they seem to have the contouring capabilities of a tempurpedic with the resilience of an innerspring and the adjustment capabilities of a sleep number ...Simply being that one has the option to adjust the firmness. In recent months ,saving my money,I have been looking at this http://www.sleepez.com/latex-mattress-buyers-guide.htm
