So for various reasons I wanted to DIY a California king mattress and ordered a coil spring assembly and piece of latex foam from Arizona Premium Mattress. I’m aware Ken doesnt think this is necessary, but since it seems most decent hybrid mattresses have a layer of foam on the bottom, and because I have a steel tubing frame which I didn’t want the coils to transmit sound in to, I decided to order a piece of foam for the bottom of my mattress. I went with a 1" piece of LUX-HQ foam from Foam Factory.
It arrived a few days ago heavily compressed, and even without unwrapping it, I could tell it was discolored and damaged as it had numerous tears in it. I reached out to Foam Factory’s customer service about this, and they claimed it was discolored due to the glue they used, and blamed the tears on the glue not having enough cure time before it was packaged. They offered me a refund or replacement and sent a return shipping label. I opt’ed for a replacement and sent the damaged piece back. As soon as tracking information appeared for my return, Veronica told me that my “new order has been sent to processing. We will send you an email with the tracking information as soon as the order ships.”
Well today comes around and apparently I come to find out that she has been doing nothing but repeatedly lying to me. My order was never shipped and it wasnt torn due to not having enough cure time, as her new message said “Management would prefer to issue a refund for this order. He feels the foam will probably come undone again when it is compressed for shipping”. I asked why they couldnt just not compress the hell out of the last foot of foam where the seam is, and use a slightly larger box, but this comment was ignored. They also claim they don’t offer any single pieces of foam which is over 82" in length. I’m not even sure why this vendor offers California king sized pieces of foam for sale if they cant manage to find a way to ship them without damaging them.
Does anyone know of any vendors where I could buy a high ILD piece of foam for the bottom of my mattress in a cal king size?
