Bamboo Bliss or Aloe Alexis?

Hi Stu4084,

He has our replacement on the way right now. My question is with both sides the same one side is noticeably softer that the other side. It’s not a bad thing I am just wondering with the same ild numbers is latex not consistent from piece to piece?

Blended Talalay latex is normally made with a relatively small variance in ILD either in the “average” of the 9 measurements they use to rate the core or in the variance across the surface of the material (unlike Dunlop or 100% natural Talalay which can have a wider variance). There is more about this in post #6 here. It would be very uncommon that the small variations between two different cores is something that people would feel in a split layer mattress where the ILD is the same on both sides.

If the difference is that noticeable it’s quite possible that “human error” may be the cause and that the difference is because they actually gave you the correct “split” firmness even though it was listed on the order as being the same.

When you receive the replacement if it seems to be the same as your current softer side then that’s what may have happened.

Thanks Phoenix! We found that company through this website and couldn’t be happier with the level of service they have provided.
I do have another question for you, my parents are actually interested in purchasing a bed from them as well, but want an adjustable base with theirs. Do you have any experience with the adjustable bases? Would they work with an Aloe Alexis mattress or would it be better to have a total latex mattress?
