Has anyone tried a latex and memory foam hybrid

Hi michaelbw,

I forgot to answer a couple of your questions …

Are you aware of any mattresses for sale that would allow for that combination?

Not off the top of my head no and you would probably need to do some local research to find one that was similar. In many cases a local manufacturer could build something like this.

Also, I’m curious if you’ve ever tried a Technogel mattress, specifically the Estasi model from The Healthy Back Store. While $4500 is a good bit more than I want to spend, I found that mattress very impressive. In fact its far and away the most comfortable mattress I’ve come across so far. My wife agrees (a rare occurrence indeed). Unfortunately they are pretty opaque about what’s under the hood, so to speak.

I’ve never tried it no but a few forum members have and have posted about their experience. A forum search on Technogel (you can just click this) will bring up more information.

The specs of the Estasi are listed here. Outside of the 1.2" layer of low density polyfoam (which is fairly thin and wouldn’t have a large effect on durability) … the specs show reasonable to good quality materials but they certainly don’t justify the cost of the mattress IMO.
