Opinion on Mattress for Young Kid

[phoenix]

Hi diewiren,

You’ve probably seen this already but just in case you haven’t post #2 here includes links to the better forum threads about mattresses and children.

All of the choices you are considering are certainly good quality options.

We were thinking originally on a 6" firm latex for the kids but it was mentioned that coil type beds may be better for kids at this age for better support and latex may be too dense or thick. I am wondering if anyone has an opinion on coil beds vs latex or should either be fine (latex just needs to be firm). Also do not want a hybrid blend of latex - being a mix of synthetic.

I would treat this as a matter of preference as long as the latex was in the firmer range. IMO both would be good options.

Any suggestions for other brands/types would be greatly appreciated.

Post #21 here includes the members of the site that sell latex or latex hybrid mattresses online. You’ve already discovered two of the better options you have available and it may also be worthwhile considering SleepEz which also has 6" 100% natural latex mattresses with two individual 3" layers that can be customized with either a wool quilted cover or a stretch knit cover.
