Just wanted to thank you for all your help. After 1 year of searching for a new mattress as well as reading your site slowly since there is much to digest, we purchased a custom latex organic mattress from Restopedic in Bethany CT. The owner, Joe, allowed us to come and create our own layers of latex and organic covering. It arrived today and we already want to take a nap. It has been a pleasure to do business there and the prices are wonderful as well. If we do not like the bed he will take it back. We have tried every bed from Bloomies to at least 10 reputable places in New York and Connecticut. Joe was the best. No questions were left unanswered. You can even watch them custom make each bed in the factory. My husband has had back surgery 2 times and he is positive this bed will be like floating on air. I suggest that everyone take the time to read your excellent advice. Everyone should take it from the pro and create your own fantastic bed.
Sooo, what did you build?

Hi fuzzyfro,
As you probably know from reading the site I think highly of Restopedic and the quality and value of their mattresses.
It’s great to see that you made such a good choice and that you also had the chance to customize it to your specifications which is one of the many benefits of dealing with a good local manufacturer.
Most of all … congratulations on your new mattress
I’m looking forward to any feedback you have the chance to share when you receive it.

So I ordered 1 week ago and they were dead on target one week later. They delivered with no charge since I am not too far. Removal of old mattress was $20 because that is what it costs them to take it to the dump. Can’t beat that! They were lovely. My younger son, who just is about to buy his first place wanted the old mattress so I had to store it. They even helped clear out a place to store it in my storage area at no additional cost. I gave the guys the $20. We slept like logs last night. Glad we bought the latex pillows. Never thought I would see the day that I did not sleep with down pillows. But this was the greatest sleep ever. They guarantee the bed not warrantee it for 15 years. My husband would not go for the only latex mattress. He felt happier with coils. He never read the site. He relies on me. He insisted on the coils which seemed like a dirty word to me after reading your site, but Joe helped us create one with coils, plus three layers of latex that we tried ourselves with the organic cotton top. All of this satisfied both of us. I forget the number count and thichness of the latex but it was a firm, middle and soft latex. I checked it on your site and it seemed to be right. Hubby was much happier with this layering. It was a bit thick so we lowered the box spring height to keep the height manageable. His box spring is very sturdy, much more than the one I am giving to my son. I want you to know Joe did not charge any additional money creating our own bed. Also if I never had read your site I would never have the known how to create this concoction. In fact I never would have known the difference in talalay versus synthetic latex or why the difference of the thickness of each layer. His coils are the best offered in the industry today, just as stated on your site. So the first night was a knockout of a sleep. His factory isn’t the ambience of Bloomies, but the service is the Rolls Royce. He even called and said if we were not happy he would make us anything of our choice at no charge. My sheets fit too. Thanks Phoenix. We could not be happier.
