Hi Pete,
I have been reading your blog and gaining a lot of insight on our mattress search.
We have a sleep number, which we hate.
In the store, we loved the feel of the aireloom crystal cove and the stearns and foster Garrick luxury.
Both are pillowtop and after reading online reviews (including yours) we do not want either a pillowtop or either of those brands.
Your recommendation of the Natura Greenspring Liberty is on our short list along with 2 local options:
The Brentwood Oceana, and the Avocado mattresses.
They are priced pretty comparably and I haven't been able to find a place to test any in stores.
I was hoping you could way in on quality of materials and construction and which might meet our needs.
We are both side sleepers (5'10" 230lbs and 5'6 180lbs) and I have chronic hip and back pain.
My husband also has back pain and frequently wakes with headaches.
For about 2 years we have been suffering on a sleep number, we are wary of making an expensive mistake again.
We currently have a queen and are thinking of moving to a king to accommodate our kids who seem to find their way into our bed at least a couple times a week.
Because we both liked the feel of the fluffy pillowtop mattresses in the showroom, I'm a little nervous about the feel of latex (avocado is Dunlop).
I am also wondering how a euro top impacts the longevity and if we are better of going with a topper or if that makes any difference?
I am so appreciative your willingness to help confused mattress shoppers find our way through the maze that is the mattress industry!
I look forward to your words of wisdom!

Hi Shana,
You can eliminate the Brentwwod Oceana, which contains memory foam...the worst upholstery material available, and what you already have in your Sleep Number Bed.
The Avocado mattress is closer in spec to the Natura Greenspring.
The differences that will matter down the road, is the very thin gauge wire throughout most of the mattress.
With the exception of the center third, the 16 and 17 gauge wire used is extremely thin.
The Natura uses 14.5 gauge throughout and the steel is twice tempered...not just once, as with the Avocado.
The other difference is the lesser expensive Dunlop latex. Natura uses Talalay latex.
The pricing is about the same.
Given the weight of your husband, the Natura should keep its shape better over the years...comparing the specifications of both lines.

If there had been a noticeable difference in price, then that would have made the Avocado mattress something to consider.
But, at about the same price, the Natura Greenspring has the better specifications...especially for longevity under plus size people.
Of the 5 models, the Liberty Plush Eurotop is the most comfortable. It'll hold up, just fine, over the years.
