Hi Jewels,
That’s not a “story” that I’ve heard before but I certainly wouldn’t “buy” it :). Latex doesn’t make “noise”.
[quote] I am posting the specs ( I don’t know the ILD:
3" Natural, medium-plush talalay latex (with the ActiveFusion).
3" Natural, medium talalay latex.
6" Natural, firm talalay latex support core.[/quote]
You can see the specs (including the ILD’s) of the Beautiful in post #2 here.
I can’t feel what you feel or see you on the mattress so you would need to trust your own careful and objective testing and “best judgement” which will tell you much more about whether a mattress is a good match for you than any comments I could make.
If you’ve done some careful testing and still aren’t confident that a mattress is a good match for you in terms of PPP then the return or exchange policy would also become a more important part of your personal value equation just in case your actual sleeping experience indicates that the mattress wasn’t as good a match for you as you hoped for so you would still have the option to return or exchange it.
In terms of quality and durability … there are certainly no weak links in a mattress that uses blended Talalay in all the layers.
