Factory Direct Mattresses in the Toronto, ON and GTA area

[Sensei]

Thanks for your question, insomniacsrus!

I do have a question about layers and cases though sensei, if you wouldn’t mind!So at the moment we’re thinking a separate layer system: each of the 6" twin XL’s in their own cover, then either each of the king 2" layers in their own covers or both in one cover.The reasoning behind that was so it’s be easier to rotate and flip each component - if they’re all in one case it’ll be a pain and therefore less likely to actually happen!But I don’t know if that’s better or worse for heat dissipation? My partner is an absolute furnace so we’re trying to get a setup with that in mind (breathable covers, wool topper, linen sheets, well ventilated slat base)

Yes, it is correct to think of a modular system like this when it comes to rotating … just a few things to keep in mind:
• Usually latex does not need much rotation if at all. Rotating a system would not have an impact on the temperature
• All the covers and enclosures will alter the feel and comfort/support balance of the system depending on how tight/lose they are
• sleeping temperature, the materials, layers, and components of a sleeping system that are closer to your skin will have a bigger effect on airflow, moisture transport, and temperature regulation than materials, layers, and components that are further away from your skin
• There is more about the many variables that can affect the sleeping temperature of a mattress or sleeping system in post #2 here that can help you choose the types of materials and components that are most likely to keep you in a comfortable temperature range. Latex itself is a quite breathable material.
• Latex in general is also the most breathable and “temperature neutral” of all the different types of foam materials but the firmness of a mattress and how much you sink into it can also affect sleeping temperature as well. While it’s also not always possible to track down temperature regulation issues for any particular person on a specific mattress because there are so many variables involved (including your room temperature and humidity, your sheets and bedding and bedclothes, your mattress protector or any mattress pads you are using, and where you are in the “oven to iceberg” range) and some people can sleep warmer on mattresses that most people are generally fine with … there is more about tracking mattress temperature regulation issues potential causes ~ Post #2 here (at least to the degree possible for a specific mattress) and the posts it links to that may be helpful.

Since it has not been mentioned in this thread, there is also Cloud Nine Furniture url=https://cloudninefurniture.ca[/url] that offer latex beds in the Vancouver area. They have a mobile showroom.

@CBHWoodFurniture, thanks for mentioning Cloud Nine Furniture to our Vancouver shoppers!
