Az Premium Mattress visit review, Savvy Rest, OMI & SleepEz questions...

[phoenix]

Hi orginaz,

Your experience at Arizona Mattress is certainly unusual and they are normally very informative about their mattresses and do a great job educating their customers about different materials and types of latex and of course they have great value. It’s unfortunate that you had such a negative experience and this is certainly not the “norm” with people who deal with them.

I then went to a local dealer to test out the Saavy Rest & OMI Terra. The salesman there seemed to be very knowledgeable and he didn’t treat me like an idiot for wanting an organic mattress. Showroom was clean, although they are more expensive.

As you are mentioning both of these are great quality (like any mattress that uses the same materials) but I would make sure that you make some careful value comparisons based on your personal value equation because there are certainly other options available to you that use similar materials at lower prices.

I plan on making a trip to SleepEz also, but haven’t done so yet.

SleepEz is one of the three members of this site that are in the area and would be well worth a visit. Their mattresses are very similar to the Savvy Rest although they offer more options in terms of design and materials and the cost is lower.

I am so torn I don’t know what to do. It’s a hefty investment and I hate to make the wrong choice.

I would first narrow down your options to the finalists (including SleepEz) and then make your final choice between them. Without visiting SleepEz you probably aren’t in the best place yet to decide what to do. One step at a time

I liked the Savvy Rest but have read some reviews that say the mattress sags after use. Any opinions?

Latex is the most durable of all the foam materials but even latex in softer versions will soften and impress slightly over time (although more slowly and less than other types of foam materials). 100% natural Talalay in lower ILD’s is also not as durable as blended Talalay so this may also be part of why you have heard these types of comments on occasion (you can read more about the factors that affect durability in post #4 here). I would also keep in mind that there is no organic Talalay … only Dunlop (and organic Dunlop doesn’t really have any meaningful differences compared to 100% natural Dunlop except of course it’s certified). You can read more about the different types of latex (including organic) in post #6 here.

You are going in a good direction but I would finish your local research first and then decide which mattress is the best match for your personal value equation. If you are only considering organic latex then that limits you to 100% Dunlop layers that have an organic certification.
