Hi NYC_sleepy,
Thanks for your update… I am glad to hear that you are happy with your "year and a half " Brooklyn Bedding Signature model BME and I agree that it is too bad that the design/materials you liked have changed … it is quite frustrating and confusing when companies modify designs/constructions but use the same model name … quite frankly its not good for branding purposes. either.
The only place I have found that compares the two mattresses are on these affiliate marketing review sites, where they have reviewed the old and new versions. As many are aware we caution using these sites for reliable information. You can see my comments about the Sleepopolis Site (and many other similar so-called “review sites” which are really just revenue sites that know little about mattresses or mattress materials) in post #11 here and in posts #4 and #6 here but the good news is that you ended up buying a great quality/value mattress in spite of the somewhat questionable information there.
Whether one is a trusted member or not, is not really related to specific marketing claims. Thanks for the note on “Nanobionic” cover, which one can see information on the Nanobionic website, which is a little light on the “science” of how this technology works.
An all latex mattresses is a great choice provided that you like the feel of latex and it matches the comfort/support for your particular PPP needs and preferences (Posture and alignment, Pressure relief, and Personal preferences). Both Latex Mattress Factory and Sleep on Latex are trusted members of our sites which means that I think highly of them, their products and their service. I’d make sure to place a phone call and discuss with each of them your specifics and sleeping history, needs and preferences to help them guide you to the best fit. (Also ckeck the TMU coupon/dixcount codes for some savings)
