Hi scoobie,
Unfortunately there really isn’t a meaningful way to put together a top 5 or even a top 100 because different people can have very different criteria and budget ranges and there are just too many unknowns, variables and personal preferences involved in choosing a mattress for anyone else to make specific suggestions either for a mattress or for a manufacturer or retailer (see post #2 here).
Having said that … the tutorial includes a link to a list of the members here that sell mattresses online (in the optional online step) that compete well with the best in the industry in terms of their quality, value, service, and transparency and many of them make latex and latex hybrid mattresses that use different types and blends of latex that have a range of different designs, options, features, return and exchange policies, and prices that that would all be well worth considering.
There is also more about the most important parts of the “value” of a mattress purchase in post #13 here that can help you make more meaningful comparisons between mattresses.
If you let me know your city or zip code I’d also be happy to let you know about any of the better options or possibilities I’m aware of that are local to you as well.
