Hi. This site has been so helpful to my husband and I as we look to replace our 10 year old Sealy spring mattress.
We have been to many local stores and visited many online sites searching for the best mattress for us.
We have decided that a hybrid coil/latex is the way to go for us.
This is for a King to be used on a Reverie adjustable base. My husband is about 5â8 185 lbs and typically a back sleeper and I am 5â1 120lbs and sleep all ways but mostly side and stomach (which may change with a Reverie)
My favorite of the store models we tried was the Naturepedic Concerto which is 6" of Dunlop ( 2 separate 3" pieces) over a coil system. I preferred the soft on soft Dunlop that we moved around in the floor model. Cotton/Wool cover. After online research we have found 2 (maybe 3) that would be a good match for us,
The first is The Nest Latex Hybrid.
3" of latex over the coil system.
We love that they offer 100 night exchange/returns and free shipping/returns as well. Our concerns are:
only 3" of latex over the coils and also, they do not offer the dunlop latex in a soft or plush. The only firmness levels offered are medium and firm. We did try a 3" wool topper in a local store that I loved so adding one of those to give it a more plush/soft feeling would be a possibility though I am not sure that would âfixâ a big difference in firmness. (total with a wool topper for this would be approx: $2300)
The 2nd is with Arizona (mattresses.net)
It would be the same set up. 3" of latex over the coil system. I also talked to him about adding an extra 2" Dunlop topper (to closer mimic the Concerto) which can be done. My concern is that I am in FL and shipping is quite expensive (which we are OK with given the lower cost of the mattress). If we needed to change out a layer, weâd be looking at about another $85 in shipping⌠Also, returns, while allowed, would be nearly impossible as the gentleman I spoke with stated âgood luck getting those coils back to meâ. I like what they do there but I am concerned about the difficulty of exchanges or returns should the need arise. (total for this would be about $1750 not including any exchange shipping)
I did just come across Luna bedding and see they offer a very similar bed 1âŚ5" of talalay latex on top of the coils and then a 3" talalay topper. I tried a number of different talalay beds and toppers in the store and did find that I prefer soft dunlop-- I found it to be more comfortable than the talalay. We COULD purchase without the 3" topper for $1095 (1.5" talalay over coils) and then purchase a separate 3" dunlop topper elsewhere. (total of about $1650) I believe I have read that it is not a good idea to put Dunlop over Talalay? I am not sold on the Luma simply because Dunlop isnât an option but would love your opinion on it. They offer a great exchange/return policy. Free Shipping and Returns.
I am not sure I have found my âGoldilocksâ bed. Maybe with Arizona but again, I am concerned about my being âstuckâ due to the difficulty with a possible return.
Thank you!
