First of all I want to thank you for providing so much helpful information. I read your mattress industry guide and purchased a mattress about 4 years ago that has been amazing!
I was hoping to ask some advice about a children’s mattress. I have a 2 year old child that keeps jumping out of his cot. We are looking into purchasing a mattress to keep on the floor for for now so he doesn’t hurt himself.
Given his light and this probably won’t be a long term thing I’m thinking of purchasing a cheaper mattress from somewhere like ebay for now - then updating in 4-5 years time.
I have found the following: ebay.com.au/itm/KING-SINGLE-NATURAL-LATEX-PILLOW-TOP-POCKET-SPRING-28cm-THICK-MATTRESS-LPT-KS-/191936641870?hash=item2cb050bb4e:g:uiIAAOSwARZXoGyL.

This seems like a standard pocket spring mattress with latex pillow top. However it doesn’t stipulate what type of latex is on the pillow top and I’m a bit sceptical as I called the place and the staff don’t know if it’s dunlop or telalay either. It’s also one of those pre packaged mattresses to, not sure if that’s a problem though.
Given this will be my sons first mattress and he’s only 2 years old, do you think there’s something in particular I should be mindful of in the purchase process?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Winston
