Hi miles4,
Latex is among the most durable materials in the industry so it certainly uses high quality materials and there are no lower quality materials or weak links in the mattress relative to any weight/BMI range. Assuming that you flip and rotate it on a regular basis … being two sided would also add to the durability of the mattress as well relative to a one sided mattress that used the same comfort and transition layers on only one side of the support core although an all latex mattress would be a very durable choice in both one and two sided versions. There is more about the pros and cons of one sided vs two sided mattresses in post #3 here.
There is more information in post #9 here about the different ways that one mattress can “match” or “approximate” another one. Every layer and component in a mattress (including the cover and any quilting materials) will affect the feel and performance of every other layer and component and the mattress “as a whole” so unless you are able to find another mattress that uses exactly the same type of materials, components, cover and quilting, layer thicknesses, layer firmnesses, and overall design (which would be very unlikely) then there really isn’t a reliable way to match one mattress to another one in terms of “comfort”, firmness, and PPP (Posture and alignment, Pressure relief, and your Personal preferences) based on the specifications of the mattresses (even assuming that you can find out all the specifications you would need to “match” for both mattresses you are comparing in the first place).
Mattress manufacturers generally try to differentiate their mattress from the mattresses made by other manufacturers and don’t normally try to “match” another mattress that is made by a different manufacturer so unless a manufacturer specifically says in their description of a mattress that one of their mattresses in the same general category is specifically designed to “match” or “approximate” another one in terms of firmness or “feel” and PPP and/or they are very familiar with both mattresses and can provide reliable guidance on a phone call about how they compare based on the “averages” of a larger group of people that have compared them (different people may have very different opinions about how two mattresses compare) … the only reliable way to know for certain how two mattresses would compare for you in terms of how they “feel” or in terms of firmness or PPP (regardless of anyone else’s opinions of how they compare which may be different from your own) would be based on your own careful testing or your actual sleeping experience on both of them.
Each mattress category (including latex mattresses) can include hundreds of different mattresses with a very wide range of different designs, different “feels”, different characteristics, and different firmness levels. Again, every individual layer and component in a mattress (including the cover and any quilting material) will affect the feel and response of every other layer and component both above and below it and the mattress “as a whole” so each mattress category will generally include some mattresses that have a design that will be a good “match” for you in terms of “comfort”, firmness, and PPP and others that use the same type of materials and components and are in the same category and may be just as durable but have a different design or firmness level that may be completely unsuitable for you to sleep on … even if it uses the same general type of materials and components.
While there are certainly other all latex mattresses that use the same type and blend of latex (100% natural Dunlop) … I don’t know of another mattress that has the same design.
When you can’t test a mattress in person then the most reliable source of guidance is always a more detailed phone conversation with a knowledgeable and experienced retailer or manufacturer that has your best interests at heart and who can help “talk you through” the specifics of their mattresses and the properties and “feel” of the materials they are using (fast or slow response, resilience, firmness etc) and the options they have available that may be the best “match” for you based on the information you provide them, any local testing you have done or mattresses you have slept on and liked or other mattresses you are considering that they are familiar with, and the “averages” of other customers that are similar to you. They will know more about “matching” their specific mattress designs and firmness levels to different body types, sleeping positions, and preferences (or to other mattresses that they are familiar with) than anyone else.
I do recommend the members of this site “as a group” (currently just over 50 manufacturers or retailers) because I believe they compete well with the best in the industry in terms of their quality, value, service, knowledge, and transparency but I don’t make specific recommendations or suggestions for mattresses, combinations of materials and components, or specific manufacturers because there are too many unknowns and variables involved that are unique to each person and there are also there are also many other sources of good quality/value mattresses across the country or online that aren’t members of this site (at least yet).
The Brooklyn Bedding BestMattressEver is a one sided latex/polyfoam hybrid rather than a two sided all latex mattress so it uses much less costly materials although it certainly uses good quality and durable materials as well that would also be suitable for any weight/BMI range. There is more about some of the differences between a latex/polyfoam hybrid and an all latex mattress in post #2 here.
While I can’t speak to how whether it would be a good “match” in terms of comfort, firmness, and PPP and it is a completely different design that wouldn’t be the same as the Woodlawn … they do have three different firmness levels to choose from and like most of the other “simplified choice” mattresses they also have a great trial period and return policy so you can try it out in your bedroom instead of a showroom and decide whether it’s a “good enough” match for you in terms of comfort, firmness, and PPP with little risk outside of the time you spend sleeping on it and/or returning it should that become necessary.
