Hi Pete,
My husband and I have a memory foam mattress that we bought several years ago.
I'm having terrible hip pain and feel that this mattress is just too firm.
After reading your blog posts, I feel that a latex topper would help, perhaps Talalay Latex.
Which one would you recommend?
Shortly, we will be moving this queen size mattress into the guest bedroom.
We are wanting a king size hip pain with independent controls.
I need my legs lifted and he needs his head lifted to breathe better....current using a cpap.
For that, we will be wanting something of very high quality with latex in it.
We each weigh more than 200 lbs. My husband is closer to 250.
I look forward to your recommendations.
Thanks, Verna
Hi Verna,
Let start with the latex topper for your current mattress.
You had asked about Talalay Latex and I have a couple of reasons why you should go with a Soft Organic Dunlop Latex Topper.
1. Real Talalay Latex has been a supply line victim. It’s hard to get.
My source is currently out of stock and when they get some, it’s a small amount.
2. Dunlop latex is more durable than Talalay.
Now that Dunlop is available in the choice of “soft”, it’s the better option for people weighing more than 200 lbs…Keeping its shape better over the years.
Here’s a link to the Suite Sleep 3” Soft Pure Organic Latex Toppers.
As I mentioned, we don’t sell adjustable bed bases.
I’ve found these from “Rize” to be well made and an excellent value.
The mattress my wife and I sleep on at home is the mattress I’m recommending for you and your husband.
The Natura of Canada Greenspring Ultra Plush Mattress.
It was the best we could find while shopping at the industry trade shows.
The individually pocketed coils contour to the shape of the body and maintain the natural alignment of the spine. This type of support is exceptional for relieving chronic back pain.
The coil count is very high.
The coils are made of heavy gauge, double tempered steel.
Equally important is the 3” of Natural Talalay Latex…providing excellent surface comfort that lasts for years.
Our mattress is now several years old and still in like new condition.
Each of us weighs more than 200 lbs.
And despite having a very bad back, this mattress allows me to sleep and wake without back pain.
