Given numbers to identify the foams?

Hi OnlyDreaming,

Thank you so much for the reply!

You’re very welcome.

The way they listed things totally perplexed me, since there was no reference to what it stood for. It didn’t even occur to me that it was the numbers I needed, just listed differently.

It can be confusing, as different companies will mix up the way they represent the ILD/density.

The salesman, unfortunately, really didn’t know a lot about the builds of the beds, but he was at least happy to pass our questions on to someone that did. Of course, that meant he had no clue what the numbers he was given for us meant, either.

I’m glad that he was at least helpful and able to get you these numbers.

It’s looking like we will have to expand our search to Nashville,

Subject to first confirming that any retailer or manufacturer on the list that you wish to visit is completely transparent (see this article ) and to making sure that any mattress you are considering meets the quality/value guidelines here … the better options or possibilities I’m aware of in and around the Nashville area are listed in post #7 here. Hopefully this gives you a few better places to investigate.
