LATEX USA 12" Nature Cloud

Hi AustinOski,

I fixed the quote tags in your post.

Hmmm…Perhaps we have a mystery on our hands. If you look at the image I attached to the first post in this thread, the label (store card) says, “…nothing but 100% all-natural talalay latex from Latex International.”

The ILD ratings I got are from here - sleepbargains.com/shop-latex-mattresses.html
Oddly, I can’t navigate to this page on their site. But, can find it via Google.

I would guess that they are confusing "100% Talalay (which means that the mattress contains all Talalay latex) with 100% natural (which means that there is no synthetic rubber used to manufacture the latex in the mattress). There are many retailers in the industry that are confused about the difference between them and advertise their blended Talalay as being 100% natural when it isn’t. Talalay Global (previously Latex International) also calls their blended Talalay “natural” and their 100% natural Talalay “all natural” which adds to the confusion. As you can see on latexfoam.com/products.html this page … the ILD numbers they listed are used for blended Talalay.

I’ll call Sleep Bargains when they open, make sure it’s new and see if they are willing to ship. I’d rather have loose layers and zipper cover, but not sure I’ll replicate it exactly or do better on price than the $2399 they offer. I’ll do some research with the vendors you list. I’ve tried to check the sites, but none have the exact same layer options (I"m thinking their 4" soft layer is really two glued 2" layers of the same ILD, assuming the ILDs on the Sleep Bargains site are correct). Do you think that likely?

That’s probably a good idea because they also sell mattresses that are probably used and/or returned (see here). I would make sure that any mattress you are considering there has a factory warranty rather than just a store guarantee.

The 4" layer could either be a single layer or two 2" layers so the only way to know for certain would be by getting accurate inforamtion from the manufacturer or retailer or looking at the layer itself.

If you are considering a DIY design then you would be able to purchase any layer thickness (up to 6" which is the thickness of the mold) in any ILD from the sources on the component list.
