Hi everyone,
I recently signed up for this site after buying a mattress from Sleep Train, only to find that the mattress’s top layer had such a large impression after 80 days that I decided to return it today. Thank goodness for their 100 day return policy!
Now that I perused this site a bit, I decided to check out a couple mattress stores and narrowed down my choices of these latex hybrid mattresses.
Not sure if you need this info, but I am 5’2", about 125 lbs and curvy (had lower back pain with the Sleep Train Mattress’s body indentation). My boyfriend is 6’2’’ and weighs 253 lbs.

From A Bedder Buy]: Lavender Latex Hybrid Mattress by Spinal Care Bedding.
" Cotton Stretch Knit Cover
Pillowtop: Latex & High Resilience HR 1.8 lb density foam
2″ of 1.5 Foam Bottom
2″ of 1.8 Foam Top
744 Marshall Pocketed Coils
10 Year Warranty"
I personally like the feel of the Sweda Juniper Latex/Spring (that’s what they call it in-store) but since the coils are connected, the bed has a lot of transfer movement, so my partner does not like it. If it had pocketed coils, I would get this in a heartbeat. My partner prefers the Ethos Refresh medium, but when I tried it in-store, it was too firm for me. They make it in a soft “waterfall” top version, but they do not have one for me to test out. They say the soft version has more talalay and is only $100 more than the model we saw. I would choose this one, but since we can’t try it, I don’t know how me and my partner will like it. Lastly, there’s the Lavender Latex Hybrid which I like the least and my partner likes the most, but I am apprehensive to purchase it because I could not find any information as to the specifics of the inside materials (whether it’s dunlop or talalay latex, what types of foam, etc).
Any help on the details of these mattresses to give me a little more guidance on what to choose? If I had my way, I would get the soft Ethos Refresh, but if it’s too soft, then my boyfriend is out of luck and I think it would be tough to make the bed feel firmer, right? Or, we could get the Ethos medium, and I could buy a talalay topper, but then I’ll be spending more than if I had just bought the soft version of the bed. Then there’s the Lavender, but I just don’t know anything about its quality. Any help is appreciated! I would like to buy the bed on Tuesday as our current bed is getting hauled away on Monday.
