Hey there,
A few years ago I decided to build my own king mattress, now I’m looking for the best way to make it less hard as I started feeling more uncomfortable lately.
So here is the current configuration of the mattress :
- 2 inches latex 20 ILD (Soft)
- 3 inches latex 30 ILD (Medium)
- 6 inches foam 50 ILD, Density 2.8 (hard)
The mattress is pretty firm, feels great if I’m on my back, but not that great if I’m on my side. I’m a 190 pounds side sleeper.
I’m thinking about adding a softer foam layer between the base foam and the latex layer, something like 35 ILD 2.8 density. So the result would be something like this:
- 2 inches latex 20 ILD (Soft)
- 3 inches latex 30 ILD (Medium)
- 3 inches foam 35 ILD (Medium) <— new layer
- 6 inches foam 50 ILD, Density 2.8 (hard)
What do you think? I’m thinking about 3 inches because it seems like a good amount, but I have no clue.
What do you think? Any suggestions?
Thank you!
