Am doing research to get a mattress and I thought the above few threads gave some great advice. I'm thinking about the following possibilities (all mentioned above) and have some questions:
1. get a firm mattress and buy top layers that can be changed.
I am confused about this because does that mean that I just choose the firmest mattress without regard to comfort because I am going to use a topper? How do I know if I am going to like the topper and is there a place to try those out, or do I just go on recommendations and order it online?
2. Where do I get a foam mattress? I went to a local highly rated mattress warehouse and the selection was all Simmons, Serta, and Therapedic, with one...

Perhaps I can be of service! I'm not a DreamFit expert, but have been working with their product for a bit. What information were you trying to find the answers to?
I'm interested in the following sheet sets:
* DreamFit; Degree 3: Select World-Class Cotton
* DreamFit Degree 5: Premium Comfort Rich Performance
Unfortunately, there seem to be relatively few reviews of the DreamFit Degree 3 sheet set and even fewer of the DreamFit Degree 5 sheet set. Is this because the Degree 5 set is more expensive? Of customers that have purchased both... which do they prefer? Did they indicate the reasons they prefer one set over the other?

The mattress I ordered won't come with a wool cover, just a cotton zipper cover (I assume a thin one).
So just to clarify--if we're talking about a wool pad and then a cotton/polyfill pad--isn't that a lot of padding? I can find examples of wool pads online, but it seems like they're relatively thick and are meant to be used on their own (as opposed to a thin mattress cover).
Also, can I ask why you suggest polyfill instead of cotton filling?
If the mattress cover is simple, then put the wool in a good pad. The wool will help ventilate your body heat. And skip the cotton/poly pad, if it is...

I figure Talalay is a quality choice from a US manufacturer for a typical build. Dunlop can be more dense, so an experienced builder with sources might choose a Dunlop core suitable for your build. But then you will probably need a different side for the other much lighter sleeper. It can get complicated. The DIY should probably stick with Talalay and split cores for each side. You might also want to figure it out but then hire a mattress shop to help you make it happen... suggest the final build and source quality components.
>>2. What kind for firmness, ILD, setups should I get? The firm, medium, soft seems to be mentioned a lot but I am not sure how to find...

My 2 cents...
o The core structure should support your weight so that your spine does not sag/stretch. Front sleep needs a firm mattress... if it's too weak, you'll feel it right away since your spine does not bend that way. Back sleep can tolerate some sag, but a little can become too much. Side sleep is the trickiest... requires a pillow... keeping the spine level while the hips and shoulders sink a bit. Once you know what you're looking for, you'll begin to feel it right away. Don't let the surface cushion confuse your evaluation of core support. Find core support first for your body weight and sleep positions.
o The surface structure should contour to your body, imparting some support to distribute your weight to the core structure. Lay on a floor and all of your weight is on a few...

Better than just latex, a Flobed allows me to tune each side to match the sleeper - and to keep doing it as needed if needed.
If definitely feels different from the innersprung mattresses we alway had. Not bouncy at all but so comfortable.
We went with the Posture...

You are right about the ILD's being different and Sleepez does not have a convoluted layer on top as far as I know. Here are their ILDs: http://www.sleepez.com/mattresscomponents.htm
My feeling is that 22 ILD is not soft enough for a side sleeper with my weight (or yours) unless your dimensions for the hip and shoulders (and waist?) are fairly close to being the same. I believe I have seen complaints about this on this forum in the past about Sleepez being too hard for side sleepers and I don't think they offer a softer "topper" if it is. I found 22-24 ILD from them to be too "hard" for me but I'm old and more sensitive to the feel....believe me, I've tried many combinations using different products from Flobeds and Sleepez and SLAB. I believe that I...

I was disappointed to discover that none of my favorite retailers offer these sheet sets in stock at an attractive price. Do any (desirable/quality) retailers offer DreamFit products at a discount...
