Hello
Attempting to decide between the Luxerion and Naturale for my daughter (10 yrs). Would like something leaning more firm as I read that is best for childhood development.
What are the ILD ratings on the latex for each of these mattresses (both sides for the Naturale)?
Thank you
Hello and thanks for the inquiry! The top 2" of latex in the Naturale is 19 ILD (soft) Talalay and the bottom 6" of latex in the Naturale is 38 ILD (firm) Dunlop. The top 3" of latex in the Luxerion is 19 ILD (soft) Dunlop. Since the Natural is a flippable mattress, I’d recommend starting her off with the firm side up to make sure she gets all the support needed for a growing child. As girls get older they tend to become curvier around their hips (and shoulders a bit as well) and at that point she would do better with the soft Talalay side facing up.
