Other than Ikea Holmsta what coil bed under $700/800 to topper up on?

Hi paisley,

Hi. I have a 24ILD latex from brookyn bedding topper to put on top of my rated “Extra Firm” bed which my 115 body finds too firm. Based on the dozens of mattresses i have tried in stores I recognize that the topper needs to be on something that is not the mattress I currently own. I would buy yet another topper but the culprit is this mattress.

What type of mattress do you have? Knowing more details about the mattress and the specific symptoms you are trying to correct with a topper along with your typical sleeping positions and body type would be very helpful and probably the best place to start.

It may be possible that a different topper can work better than you suspect and with your very light weight a softer ILD or even different thickness may also be worth considering (depending on your specific experience on the mattress and mattress / topper combination).

Without reference points that include your personal experience on the mattress and the mattress / topper combination it isn’t really possible for anyone to even make a meaningful guess about which mattress may work with the topper you have. The most effective approach is generally to first choose a mattress and then use the topper to fine tune it rather than the other way around so your circumstances are much more difficult to predict.

There are some topper guidelines in post #8 here that may also be helpful

(Just to add, I have been to every store in nyc that sells all latex, I would prefer a coil, coil/hybrid, but those are not found under $1,200 and i did not like the berkley beds for my body and at this point dont even have the 1,200, so until I can afford the time to travel upsate ny and the extra few hundreds it will take to get a custom made mattress of coils + good materials i guess i could say i am desperate to get rid of the mattress I am on. Desperate. Every night sleeping is not a good experience hence why I am looking for a 2-3 year mattress for under my topper for $700ish. I was thinking of just buying a 3" 4lb cool memory foam topper from Brooklyn Bedding but i can’t risk that it’s yet again not going to be any match for this horrible hateful mattress then i am back to square one looking for an interim mattress)

Dreamfoam also has a pocket coil mattress here that includes 2" of 19 ILD talalay latex that is in your budget range (although I’m not certain of all the layers or if there is any other foam in the mattress) and it may be well worth talking to them about it.
