Hi AcGolfer,
Well you’ve certainly eliminated all the “worst” choices and are looking at better ones both locally and online. It’s fortunate that you are able to test some latex locally to see how it “works” for you and the layering of the Verlo can certainly give you a reference point for what you like.
These are both great value but the Eurotop does have some advantages that goes with it’s higher price. You can see a comparison between them in post #2 here.
They have been working on their Brooklyn bedding site for a long time and it’s great to see that it has now been updated and new mattresses are now appearing on the site. Like their Amazon offerings … the quality/value of their mattresses there are also great. You are correct that the Ultimate Dreams is not zippered and the others are.
I think that you are certainly looking at some excellent options. I would of course talk with them to help you decide between them and on the comfort choices that may be best for you (I leave that up to your conversations with each manufacturer because they know their mattresses better than I do) but if your personal value equation leans towards a latex hybrid then any of these would make great quality/value choices IMO
