I’m looking for a mattress for my daughter who will be turning 3. I have been reading the forum for days, but I think I’ve gotten a bit overloaded with info, and now I’m feeling a bit lost.
My criteria - as natural as possible (organic everything a big plus), something that can last for a long time (I had the same mattress from age 6-age 23…doesn’t have to have that kind of longevity, but 10 yrs + would be awesome), something that is ok for me or dad to lay with her on, as we often lay in bed with her for books, middle of the night needs, etc., and we would like to spend less than $1000 total, including any foundation. (Much less would be great!!, but not sure possible.)
I was originally going to go with the Pure Echo from greenmattress.com, but after speaking with Kathy there, she recommended I move to the Natural Escape instead - to allow for adults to lay in the bed and for longer life span of mattress (I think the difference there is the Echo is not pocketed coil but the Natural Escape is). But, I’m not sure if I full latex might be a better choice? Maybe the Q3 Nest Bedding Latex Mattress Jr Latex from Nest Bedding? But, if it’s listed as a Jr bed, does that mean adults shouldn’t sleep on it?
So basically, I am having a hard time deciding between full latex and coil with latex on top. Any reason you would suggest going with one over the other for our situation?
Thanks so much for all of your information and help!
