New bed setup

After months of research I finally put my bed together. I would like to thank this forum for all the info it shares to novice people like myself. I feel I have learned a lot and because of this forum and other available info on the web, I think I came up with an environmentally friendly and comfortable bed. My wife and I are both side sleepers and average size people, 5’3 130lb and 5’11 200lb. We both like a soft bed. We have been sleeping on a 12 year old queen size coil spring bed form a department store. In the beginning of our search we had looked at the memory foam beds and the airbeds.This is what we finally decided on. I am so glad we spent the time and research to get a latex bed. Organic Dunlop latex E. KING: We like dunlop over talalay.

All natural/organic dunlop

Sleep on Latex:
base: 3 inch firm 44ild from; Sleep on latex
second layer: 3 inch medium 30ild: Sleep on latex
third layer: 3 inch soft 20ild: Sleep on latex
Sleep on Latex was very informative and friendly. Product was as described. Great value.

The Nest:
top layer: 3 inch super soft continuous pour, 12.5 ild: The NEST
The Nest was very informative and friendly. Product was as described.

  • What was the most frustrating part was the inconsistent ILD ratings when researching latex.

    Sleep Like a Bear:
    Encasing: Sleep like a bear 100% organic baffled wool cotton cover
    Sleep Like A Bear had Great customer service, very nice and had fast shipping. The product is high quality and very nice.

Cozy Pure:
Mattress cover: CozyPure Organic cotton Matelasse protector
Cozy Pure was very slow, did not have the item listed as out of stock when I ordered it. They appeared somewhat full of themselves
.

Coyuchi Outlet:
Coyuchi organic Pointille sheets and blankets
Coyuchi had awesome service and was very friendly. Great products at a great price (outlet price)

Tucker Creek Alpaca Duvet: just ordered and have not received
