[quote=“Phoenix” post=54223] All I can really say with any accuracy is that in very general terms the effect of the tension adjustable slats can be less noticeable with a mattress that is thinner than it would be with a similar mattress that has similar materials and components that is thicker.

Phoenix, I’m new here—great site! Thanks for all the useful information. When I’m finished poking around I will have a list of questions for you. But meantime, I thought I’d jump in here and say that I think you meant “…slats can be MORE noticeable with a mattress that is thinner…” (See, for instance, your post #2 here, https://forum.mattressunderground.com/t/latex-mattress-for-side-sleeper-on-edge-of-mattress, where you wrote, “If the mattress above them is thicker then the effect of flexible slat systems will be reduced and their effect will tend to be more noticeable with thinner mattresses.”). A thick foam mattress should disperse stress more than a thin foam mattress, resulting in less effect of euro slats on thick vs. thin mattress. Therefore, your first statement above is incorrect and the second statement is correct. Simple writing error, no big deal, but wanted to clarify for future readers who might be confused.
