Do they make flat mattresses anymore?

Hi Rosie,

Do you know any good retailers in Vancouver BC that have alternative brands and work more closely with the manufacturers or should I post a new thread?

This thread is fine

The better options and possibilities I’m aware of in the Greater Vancouver area are listed in post #2 here.

I know right off the bat that I dont like polyurethane because I tried buying a mattress topper made of that and it made me feel really hot at night and it also stuffed my nose up. But I wonder if it will still bother me if its actually inside the mattress.

You can read about some of the factors that can affect sleeping temperature in post #2 here. Soft foam materials where you sink in more deeply and that don’t have some type of breathable cover or material over them or that use a mattress protector or sheets over them than don’t ventilate or wick moisture well can be more insulating and sleep warmer than firmer materials or materials that breathe and wick moisture more effectively. In other words … it may have been the type of polyurethane in combination with the other materials that were in or over your sleeping system rather than just the polyurethane itself.
