HI Phoenix,
Thank you for your reply.
Well, my husband and I have slowly been enjoying our own personal âlie in.â Weâve started to visit a number of the places you listed on your site - thank you for that, by the way! And thanks to your extensive tutorial on support layers, comfort layers etc., I understand one heck of a lot more than I did before even though my head is still spinning.
But what do you do when you get to a location and find you like the beds. But you also find them a bit too soft and the individual wonât give more information as to construction? Went to Flexus and met a charming gentleman who was not the owner. He readily told me the inches in each layer (two latex mattresses and 1 innerspring with latex), but when I asked about latex density and for information about the innersprings, I was told they didnât give out that information.
Iâm trying to educate myself and figure out what possible variation would make my cranky back happier. How in the heck am I going to be able to compare and understand what the heck I want?
I intend to try to reach the owner on Monday, but�
HOWEVER, I was able to mention the words Dunlop and Talalay with confidence. Yippee!!
We also visited Melvin Custom last week and had a delightful visit. But Iâd REALLY have to know what I want in density and construction before going again. But their card has been tucked into my wallet for future reference just in case since my husband is really âgetting into thisââŚheâs wondering if we should tear down the iComfort Genius and âreconstruct.â
UhâŚprobably not the best idea in the world. But it might be better than the other one heâs got. It goes something like:
- F[nd another bed I like, place it on platform base and add sheets.
- Take iComfort, strip off sheets.
- Take a BIG can of black spray paint and write words on mattress to allow the world to have some sense of how we feel about this bed.
- Place inscribed mattress in back of truck, take it to a major on-ramp on our busy 101 freeway.
- Superglue and chain it to a large metal light pole.
In this position, it would allow several thousand consumers âdelightfulâ reading material as theyâre waiting in line, inching their way up to the on-ramp. He wants to make sure we choose a â2 cars per greenâ on-ramp, to maximize exposure to the âmessage.â
