Hi Pete,
I would like to order your Pure Bliss natural latex mattress toppers.
I am about to have a second spinal fusion after a previous fusion in 2011.
We have turned our Tempurpedic memory foam mattress sideways to try and stretch it's life.
We bought this only a few years ago. It was very expensive, and my back pain is killing.
Do you think it might work, to put the topper on this mattress?
Or should I just put the money toward a new mattress?
I really really appreciate your blog and any input you give.
We are both large people (both 6’) and weigh 230/250.
Thanks for any suggestions, Karen
Hi Karen,
The memory foam on the top of your mattress is useless, and adds to your back pain.
That memory foam, on top, is supported by high density poly foam that is significantly firmer.
Despite being mad to be one sided, the underside is usable and will provide better support for your back.
Flip that mattress over today. Your back will feel better tomorrow.
However, the underside is likely to be too firm to sleep on comfortably.
Your best option is to add a Pure Talalay Bliss 3" Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper to the flip side of your mattress.
Together, you'll have what your body needs...firm support and a comfortable sleeping surface.
Latex is the best upholstery material available, and has been so for the last 100 years.
Contrast that with memory foam, which has proven to be the worst upholstery material, over its 20 year history.
Here is a link to those latex toppers:
Delivery is free and there's no sales tax.
You can order that on line.
