Hi latex mattress hunt,
Just in case you haven’t read it yet the first place I would start your research is the mattress shopping tutorial here which has all the basic information, steps, and guidelines that can help you make the best possible choices … and know how and why to avoid the worst ones.
It sounds like you’ve read this but for the sake of any others that may read your post I would make sure you read post #39 here and the rest of the topic before considering Naturessleep.ca. A forum search on naturessleep.ca will also bring up more information about them as well.
You can see some comments about Soma and Dormio in the Toronto list here. A forum search on Soma and on Dormio (you can just click the links) will bring up more comments and feedback about both of them.
There are also some comments about Natura (Naturaworld) in post #7 here and the posts it links to.
I would also be very cautious about using someone else’s experience on any mattress (either positive or negative) as a meaningful source of guidance about how a mattress will feel for you because firmness and softness is very subjective and relative to different people (a mattress that feels firm for one person can feel soft for someone else) and each person can be very different. A mattress that is a “perfect” match for one person in terms of PPP (Posture and alignment, Pressure relief, or Personal preferences) may be completely unsuitable for someone else to sleep on … even if they are in similar weight ranges. Using other people’s mattress reviews or experiences as a meaningful source of research and information can often be more misleading than helpful (see post #13 here).
There is more about the different ways to choose a mattress that can help you identify and minimize the risks involved with each of them in post #2 here.
Post #13 here also has more about the most important parts of the “value” of a mattress purchase that can help you make more meaningful comparisons between different mattresses without having to rely on anyone else’s experiences which may be very different from your own.
If you let me know your city or zip code I’d be happy to let you know about any of the better options or possibilities I’m aware of in your area.
Pose #21 here also includes a list of the better online options and possibilities I’m aware of that ship across Canada.
