Hi,
I have wandered around the site a bit and finally decided to ask a question regarding the mattresses I am considering.
I live in the Sacramento area and have been to European Sleep Design and The Healthy Bed Store and am considering a mattress from each store. Are you familiar with European Sleep Design? I am considering their Norwegian mattress. According to the website this mattress has a triple coil design. It’s been a while since I’ve been in the store (taking way too long to make a decision) as I recall there were two layers of coils that were separated by a thin layer of latex. Apparently there are three layers of coils. My concern is how well that will hold up? Is it common to have a layer of coils on top of coils? How do coils on top of coils hold up? If there are 3 coil layers, I think one layer is sitting directly on top of another. I don’t believe this bed has much to it except the coils. Can you please give me your comments/thoughts/insight?
Info on the Norwegian mattress from the store:
*Triple coil design
*Base layer of nested, highly flexible Swedish coils
*Middle layer of over 1,500 mini coils with 1" of Talalay latex
*Cotton knit quilted to a combination layer of wool and camel hair
The other mattress my husband and I are considering is the Pure LatexBliss Worlds Best. Details below. They advertise that Latex is practically the only thing in the mattress. I am wondering what the Active Fusion material is made of? Do you have any comments/insight/experience with the Pure LatexBliss company? Do you have any insights/comments/experience with this mattress? Can you find out for me what the Active Fusion material is made from? I have left a message with them but have not received a call back.

I have read your post about the needs: Pressure Relief and Posture & Alignment, and the preferences. Our needs have not been being met in our old mattress. That is #1 concern of new mattress. My number 1 preference/concern is that I get hot in the spot I am laying in. I am okay once I move to a cooler spot in the bed but this is not an option if I sleep in the same bed with my husband. I need a cooler bed. Also my husband is quite a bit heavier than I am and with past mattresses, I slept better once he got up in the morning. I had more support without him in the bed. Maybe that’s because the mattress was too old, but I am concerned, because he is heavier, that I purchase the correct mattress that will support both of us comfortably.
We have been sleeping on a mattress with a memory foam on top. My husband prefers the sleeping “in” feeling vs sleeping “on” the mattress, however, he thought both of these mattresses were comfortable. My concern with the sleeping “in” is that it is probably what makes me hot! My husband is also a hot sleeper.
I tried to give you enough information about us and about the two mattresses in question. I hope I didn’t make this too long.
I SINCERELY look forward to your reply as we MUST get us a mattress. We don’t even have one right now (but that’s another story).
Also, if you have a mattress(es) or store to recommend besides the two I’ve mentioned, please recommend.
Thanks!
