We've decided to order:

6" latex base - firm 33-38 ILD from FBM $483.99
2" latex topper - soft - 20ILD from FBM $150.99
terry cover from FBM $20
SnugFleece Elite Queen Mattress Pad 1.5” pile 65oz wool - $258 from dreamsoftbedware.com
(total $912.98)

We have a platform bed (solid wood, not slats) but right now the mattress is on the floor because we cosleep with our 5 month old. Anyone know if having a solid, non-slatted base is a problem?

Anyone have any changes or other recommendations to give to our planned mattress? We used a lot of information from other people's posts to decide on this combo, but we're always open to suggestions! We've toyed with only using a 1" topper of soft latex and thought of using the snugfleece deluxe instead as it's cheaper ($161). Any thoughts or opinions are welcome.

I appreciate all of the information everyone on this forum has provided to me! I'm so glad I didn't plunk down another $1300 on a pillowtop from a big S!
