Hi all
I have a nest hybrid latex mattress that I love thanks to this community. It’s 120 lbs, very heavy. I am considering the Big Fig Low Profile mattress foundation:
I like a lower profile bed and this is the only one I’ve found that meets the 2" slat spacing rule. I’m wondering:
- Does anyone have experience with specifically the big fig low profile foundation? It comes in 2 sections which don’t join in the middle which I find concerning although they say it works by setting into the steel bed frame which I would also buy.
I’m also considering the terra mattress foundation
The big fig low profile foundation has 20 slats whereas their standard foundation and the terra have 18.
For a while I was also looking at the tatami room platform bed which has 18 slats. This is probably bias but I also wonder if the old foundations that have a cover over the slats provide some extra stability/insurance. Would it be wrong to get tatami mats to use with a hybrid mattress with the tatami room platform? Would this be breathable enough?
I’m leaning toward the big fig low profile for cost reasons but let me know if anyone has concerns that it comes in 2 pieces. It also has a higher weight capacity than tatami room. Thanks!
