Thanks for your reply Nikki.
The composition link is really helpful, I did not notice the ability to toggle to that when viewing the trusted partners.
For the luxe composition it mentions
" * 2" of lbs/ft3 Ghost Bounce Foam" - looks like the density there is missing, any idea what that would be?
And the memory foam layer above that is listed at 4 lbs, " * 2" of 4 lbs/ft3 Phase change coated Gel memory foam"
I noticed in several other posts some of the forum administrators were saying for this weight range 5 lbs would be kind of the minimum to be comfortable with, “I would be particularly cautious about mattresses that use more than “about an inch or so” of memory foam that is less than about 5 lb density or polyfoam that is less than about 2 lb density … particularly in the upper layers of the mattres” post 2 here
Do you think 4 lbs would be good enough? Any options you know of with 5 lbs?
I played around with this survey, I noticed that when I say I like memory foam it selects luxe, and when I say I like hybrid it suggests flex, with all the other answers being the same.
Can anyone speak to why someone would want to choose hybrid vs all foam? My understanding is the hybrid will be less sinking but more support (maybe better for heavier person?), is there more nuance than that?
For the ghost bed flex, it looks like there is 3" of foam (2" 4 lbs memory, 1" 2 lbs “transition foam” - would that be polyurethane and therefore a good density? or is that memory foam and not enough density?).
Is 3" of foam generally enough over coils to feel good pressure relief and get a nice conforming fit, or would that be a bit thin?
In terms of overall quality, is Ghost bed on par with what you would get for paying for Tempur Pedic, or is it a step down (or up)?
Thanks again!
