What Are The Berkeley Ergonomics Specs

Hi mapadoobu,

If I have the ILD specs could sleepez make pretty much the same mattress?

If all the layers and components are identical including the cover and quilting then it would be the same yes but this would depend on whether SleepEz carries the specific latex and ILD’s that BE uses and the covers would also be different (which can make significant difference in the cost and “feel” of a mattress). you can read more about trying to “match” another mattress in post #14 here. Every difference between then would make a difference in how they compare in terms of feel and performance.

Sleepez’s April 8" all latex mattress special has pretty much the same material and thickness as BE’s 8" latex mattress except that Sleepez uses two 3" dunlop layers as the support instead of one 6" layer, but the price would be almost a $1000 cheaper compared to buying a BE mattress locally.

There is no doubt that the SleepEz “special” is unusually good value but it would not be the same as the BE. Once again the cover and quilting is different (the SleepEz special cover is unquilted and has no wool which and is a much less costly component) and the latex layers may be different as well so to the degree that you could match the latex types and ILD it would be similar but the different covers and quilting would certainly make a difference both in terms of feel and performance as well as value. A better comparison in terms of matching the layers and components would be in between the SleepEz 9000 natural (which gives you the option between 100% natural Dunlop which would be similar to the BE or blended Talalay if you choose the Talalay) and the SleepEz 9000 organic (which gives you options between organic Dunlop or 100% natural Talalay which is what BE uses in their comfort layer) and has a wool quilted cover similar to the BE.
