Reverie Dream Cell mattress

Hi Amyalex.

Welcome to our Mattress Forum! :slight_smile:

Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate it!

We are busy on the back end implementing the – Talk to the Experts features to help consumer with research, and while it is under construction we have temporarily eliminated “New Topics” from the General Mattress, allowing the creation of “New Topics” only from the Experts dedicated areas where you can ask our Experts directly a question. When time permits and when appropriate I will add any relevant information that may be helpful.

Most adjustable beds (including the Reverie models) have a solid surface which will not provide any ventilation underneath the mattress and can add somewhat to the risk of moisture retention and developing mold or mildew in the mattress but if you don’t have any additional risk factors in your environment then it should be fine (see Post #10 here ). I would keep in mind that a mattress does not breath only from underneath but from all sides and if moisture and humidity is of concern than there are several ways to mitigate this such as placing a bed rug between the solid surface and the mattress.

Generally speaking I have not heard of mold issues connected with adjustable bases, I (and many others) use an adjustable bed with a solid surface under my own latex mattress with no problem. The risk of mold and mildew is small with a latex mattress or a pocket coil bed. Latex is naturally mold and mildew resistant and would be a good choice of material for a mattress for an adjustable base. There are a few adjustable beds on the market that use a slated or breathable decks, but these tend to be more costly and you would need to run it by your personal value equation and assess all factors that are most important to you.

Choosing an adjustable bed is often one of the “compelling reasons” that many people would choose not to have a more breathable base as one of the tradeoffs involved in having the advantages of an adjustable bed.

Best of luck with your research!
