If it is a Sealy Truform the cashmere top cover, the large print on the fabric says cashmere.  Truthfully it is less than 5% I believe.  LOL.  How is that for honesty, read the label attached and you will see the real percentage.

Phoenix, have you researched the S&F Limited Edition Golden Elegance?  From all of the S brand models I have looked at, this seems to use the highest quality ingredients:  3" latex, wool, cashmere, silk, horsehair, coil in coil system.

Not sure if they slipped any PU foam in there, but knowing the S brands I cannot rule it out.  I hate when they don't give the exact composition of what is inside.  Generally that means they have something to hide.

Starts at $4000 for a queen, but not sure if that is suggested retail price which will get heavily discounted.

For the record I am not saying buying toppers is ideal, but on a limited budget it could be.  Someone show me even one pillowtop mattress that is made with nothing but high quality materials for less than say even $1500 for a queen set and I will be a little shocked.  Gardner seemed to be the closest but with some very basic innersprings being used.  The problem with most pillowtops is that they really don't last very long at all...the whole point of buying a firm bed and adding your own upholstery is so you can replace that upholstery if/when it fails.  If your upholstery is built right into the mattress in the form of a pillowtop you are hooped.  Even the latest Stearns and Foster models we got up in Canada last year that were supposed to be much more durable due to HD foam I have had...

This is for reference only. Not in any way a recommendation for this mattress. Kimberly and Eureka Springs are the same.

In my research, I found it interesting that one of the most comfortable mattresses I lay on was a coil on coil design that was made by a local mattress manufacturer (same one that sells the sawgrass I lay on). It had something like 1200 coils (or microcoils) in the pillowtop that conformed to body shape with some padding on top. Some soft latex on top of this would be supremely comfortable. There are quite a few of these around as well including European sleep designs that was mentioned here recently.

I'm not sure how long these would last but if they were well made I don't see why they wouldn't be relatively durable.

They are also not as expensive as I would have thought on first impression. Springs are cheap these days. Even innersprings are ridiculously cheap for the mattress manufacturers to buy (I read...

I've seen it in passing before but didn't look at it in too much detail. It only came out late last year. Did a quick search to see if I could get some quick information on it to confirm what I would think of a similar mattress (similar specs).

Here is a more complete breakdown of your mattress http://www.bernieandphyls.com/870PK805OW-Stearns-and-Foster--Kimberly-Luxury-Firm-Mattress--Queen.html

and another one here http://www.gotomattress.com/p-299-stearns-foster-kimberley-luxury-firm-tight-top-mattress-queen.aspx

The Russell Square is also called the Kimberly in other places but it's the same.

VRT is usually a fancy word for zoning of some type.

The memory foam is hidden way inside the mattress where it can't possible have enough heat reach it to do what memory foam does.

There's no latex in this model but the higher models have a whole .79" of smart latex ... wow (laughing)

There's a LOT of polyfoam here which is usually what leads to the body impression issues that people talk about. YMMV

Stearns and foster is known for having good coils in their bed which is a plus.

I would search for "russell square luxury firm" and "kimberly...

Thank you all for your great input. So as of this time I actually didn't have it delivered yet :) because I tried it again and decided that I don't like how it feels. I am now leaning toward the Deacon Ridge model, the one step above I guess in the S&F Estate line of coil mattresses.I believe this is the one that has the .79" of SmartLatex layer instead of the foam. :) It does feel comfortable though, but like Phoenix and sandman said, mileage may vary. So I am also trying out the all natural latex models from other brands they have in Sleepy's, such as LatexBliss and the Dr. Breus Bed (international Bedding) but they are costly..  What are your thoughts about these two brands? Any recommendations for places where I can try other latex mattresses in the Brooklyn NY area? I'm seeing people posting a lot about...

My current mattress is about 10 years old and is probably due for repalcedment.  I have a hard time sleeping sometimes, and don't always wake up refreshed.

So I visited a mattress store yesterday and spent about an hour trying just about every bed in the joint.  The one I liked the best was the low end Stearns & Foster in a plush.  Unfortunately, it was out of my price range.  The salesman brought down the price about 25% by using a "clearance" box spring, but I didn't give in.  I probably would have had he thrown in free delivery.  Decided to "sleep on it."

I had read a little bit before going to the store, and was trying to look for stuff like the number of coils and gauge of steel.  They didn't have much of that info.  I tried the Tempurpedic bed and thought...
