I am posting this as a separate thread. (thanks Phoenix, hope you come back and read this)

 

  

Bought the Sams Club Latex mattress - American Sleep Organic.  It has 1 inch of 18 ILD, 2 Inch of 24 ILD and 6 inch of 28-32 ILD.  The mattress is firm. As you sleep on it it pushes you back and it hurts. I have been sleeping on it for only 1 week now.

(Before I got the mattress I was sleeping on the sofa as a temporary solution, as I returned had my previous bed and had only sofa or floor to sleep on. Sleeping on sofa for almost 3 weeks gave me dark circles under my eyes and eye bags as it was very uncomfortable)

So this Sams Club latex mattress hurt me so much that I began to sleep on the sofa again!  It is that firm.

I have tried sleepin on the latex mattress since last 2 days. And it still feels firm and is pushing firmly back against parts of my body. I am waking up tired  and when I get up in the morning after tossing and turning through night and I look up my face in the mirror I can see my eyes and face look really tired due to lack of sleep.

I did not expect this after shelling out this much money.

After calling the company (that makes this latex mattress) many times and talking to different individuals I have gotten these answers:

1.  What type of latex is in this Latex mattress -

Answers:

Dunlop.

2. Which company do you get this Dunlop Latex from or which company makes this Dunlop Latex:

Here are remarkable answers I got:

One guy tells me this:

The name of the company that makes the latex is "DUNLOP"! 

Other answers:

International latex!

latex International ( 2 times I was told this!)

Then 2 times I was told they don't know who makes the latex that goes into their mattress. Then the reply came back it was latexco.

I called latexco on East coast and they told me the name "Innomax" does not ring a bell.

3.  what is the feel of the mattress -

One guy said it feels soft, others said it feels medium.

So I still have no clear answers as to who makes the Dunlop latex that goes inside the mattress and the sams club web site is misleading as to what inches are each layers of the mattress and does not tell anything about ILDS or type of latex used in the mattress.

The tags on the mattress do not tell what type of latex is used in the mattress. There is no literature that came with the mattress that tells any specific information about the mattress.

 very very disappointed.

I don't know what I should do.

 

Should I shell out more money and buy a topper or return the mattress. I don't know If i could return the mattress now.
