Hi dbergan,
I talked with Chad and have confirmed that none of the materials in any of the Beds by Design mattresses are either synthetic or natural latex and they are versions of polyfoam. Some of the materials are high performance polyfoams that are certainly a very good quality and durable material and have many of the properties of latex but they are also less costly than “real” latex (synthetic or natural). It appears that we completely disagree about the importance of providing accurate and factual information and I’ve changed their description in the forum lists here and here to reflect the somewhat “difficult” conversation we had.
I also left a message with Juna Sleep and I will post more information about the materials they are using (and whether it uses “real” latex) once I’ve had the chance to talk with them. They were employed by BBD for a while so with that and their pricing it wouldn’t be surprising to me if they were also describing high performance polyfoam such as Avena as being some type of latex as well.
