Kimmcgov, what was your final selection for a sleep combination that would lead you to this statement?...

LOL. I always wanted to be Queen of SOMETHING! :-) Lynn is my Co-Queen and what's-his-name (zoned latex expert) is the KING! :)

I'm at the magic number---3 inches of foam. Actually, 2 and 3/4. Two inches of that is latex and then the HR PU foam.

That might have been my trouble with the memory foam. I had it over approximately 2 inches of latex. Some of it medium and some of it soft. The inside of my mattress was firm latex and HR foam. But it was those TOPPERS that were tending to give way to my back. You know, I have to laugh because I had found this quote on a foam website:

"If we were to select what we feel is "the best memory foam mattress topper" we would probably choose the 2 inch 4 lb or the 3 inch 5lb. Either of these would be an excellent...

I disagree with staying away from PU foam. Maybe you meant to say CHEAP polyurethane foam. There IS a difference. I happen to have a very high density, high ILD PU 1" layer of PU foam as my base over my coils. On top of that are two more layers of talalay latex. This high quality PU foam should last a good 10-15 years. My custom, zippered mattress is warranted for 20 years. My mattress maker gave me an education on PU foams, as well as latex and the other materials that go inside a mattress. He showed me the differences between cheap, low density foams and the higher density ones that I have. Beliveve me, as I said above...there IS a difference. So, while I'm not advocating a mattress that is ALL PU foam, I certainly feel it has its place. Can you tell me what's in...

National Allergy has the best selection of encasements (mattress, box, pillow, comforter) for the $ I've found. ...

I was looking for something and stumbled on a website--apartmenttherapy.com--or something like that. Below are a couple posts--one from a dealer and one from some extremely "unhappy campers." The site is worth perusing.
[BTW, there was a poster on there who sounded a lot like confusedbedbug's setup (just guessing)].


"Hi Everyone!
I just came across this site and felt compelled to add a comment regarding Hastens beds. My wife and I purchased a 180cm x 210cm Continental in June this year. We based our decision on a number of factors including price, construction (we wanted an all-natural, non-toxic bed), longevity, and most importantly our own past experience sleeping in a Hastens bed. We had a positive experience in a hotel. We saved money for 3 years to buy a Hastens. The bed cost around $12,000. We spent several hours during multiple trips to the store trying diffent beds before making our...

Has anyone tried this mattress from Denver Mattress?  It is their version of a chambered air mattress support (like Select Comfort) with a 2" latex (possibly Talay but maybe Dunlop) top comfort layer.  What does anyone think of this combination where a bad back is the main concern and pressure point relief is secondary.  Thanks...

HI, I am new to the forum.  Hubby and I bought a Sealy Influence king size mattress a year and a half ago and it was a very firm mattress.  Hubby did not like it.  We have given that mattress set to our 14 year old son.  Two weeks ago, hubby and I went and bought a Select Comfort 5000 king size bed.  I HATE it.  Hubby likes it, doesn't love it but he likes it much better than the Sealy.  The select comfort I feel is a glorified air mattress and it is hurting at the top of my spinal cord along my shoulder area.  I called Select comfort today and they are coming to get it in about a week.   Testing that mattress is costing us about $400. 

Now I am in search of a new mattress set.  I went to a Serta store and really didn't like...

Arpico is a major Dunlop supplier from Sri Lanka - probably the biggest of the reputable suppliers. (Please correct me if I'm wrong.) Take a look at the web sites for Arpico, Latexco, Dunlopillo, Latex International and Sleep Comp.

I don't really know that much about the Dunlop manufacturers. I just know the big names and that I like to sleep on an ILD around the mid...

I'm not a guru by far when it comes down to these things but we have some pretty smart people on this board....

Don't judge a sheet by the thread count number!

You first need to understand what creates the softest hand, the finest drape, the most lustrous finish, and the world's most luxurious linens , you must consider more than just thread count , which is a measure of the number of yarns woven into one square inch of fabric. Thread count is important, but it is only one part of the story. The quality of a sheet is determined by three other key components as well, but it all starts with the...

The JC Penney is the same as Sleeplikeabear.com zoned latex pillow plush. By the way, the customer service person at that site is very good at diagnosing pillow/neck issues and making suggestions over the phone. They have very competive pricing and ship free as well. They will also accept returns. She is the one who told me Penney's pillow is the same as hers. She also has the 'firm" version (recommended for me) and the best specialty selection on the web I could find. The Penney's pillow can be found:

Beware, the Penney's pillow says Medium but it is NOT! It is soft, as confirmed by the Sleeplikeabear.com expert. They are only manufactured as soft and firm from LI, but Penney's slapped a "medium" title on it to appeal to the most consumers. They do not carry the firm. I bought mine in my store here.

Art, regarding my neck, the...
