Questions about The Pure Bliss Natural Talalay Latex Mattress Toppers.

Stephanie writes:

 

Hi Pete,
Some questions for you:
1) It looks like the Pure Bliss 2" Natural Talalay Latex Mattress Toppers, comes with a cover.  

Is this correct? 
2) Does the cover zipper around the latex topper?
3) How does the topper attach to a mattress?
4) What is the difference between the firm and plush?

Thanks, Stephanie

 

 

 

Good Morning Stephanie,

The Pure Bliss Latex Toppers come complete with the cover.

That is a zippered cover.

The fabric on the underside of the topper is a nonskid cover.

(We use one at home. It never slides and never needs repositioning).

 

The Firm is hard. The Plush is soft.

A Pure Bliss Latex Topper for a Too Firm Stearns and Foster Mattress.

Carrie writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I have a Stearns and Foster Mattress that is just too firm.

I've read a lot of your blog posts, and it seems I need a Pure Bliss latex topper to go on it.

My question is, 2" or 3"?

I want some cushioning for this mattress, but worry about it being so soft, that I won't want to get out of bed.

I know that sounds a little funny, but I have to get up early for work. 

My worry is that if it's too comfortable, I won't want to get up.

Thanks Carrie

 

Hi Carrie,

You're right! It sounds funny.

But, I get your point.

Comfy but not too comfy, can be had with the Pure Bliss 2" Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper.

New Mattress is Causing Neck Pain.

Hi Pete,

I just got a new mattress delivered, last week, and I'm suddenly having neck pain.

Could it be that this mattress is causing that?

Do I need to swap it for something else?

What are your thoughts on this?

Thanks, Sadie

 

Hi Sadie,

A new mattress will, generally, realign your body.

This can be quite a shock to the system if you'd been sleeping on a old mattress for an extended period of time.

The neck problem is not likely to be caused by the mattress.

It sounds like you need a new pillow....which is often the case when a new mattress is purchased.

We carry a finely chopped latex pillow, made by Pure Bliss.

The finely chopped latex allows you to manipulate the latex to fit around your head and neck any way you like.

It performs like a down pillow, in this way, but lasts a whole lot longer than a down pillow.

It does a great job of relieving chronic neck pain...the second pillow on our pillows page.

A Good Quality Mattress, Without Memory Foam, Delivered to Canada.

Darlene writes:

 

Hi Pete,

My husband is having back pain when he sleeps and wakes up.

This pain goes away after an hour, orso, of moving around.

We have a memory foam mattress that appears to be the cause, which I learned from your blog.

This mattress is only a couple of years old. It was fine, at first, but hasn't lasted very long.

We can't afford to waste money on mattresses, so we are looking for a really good one without memory foam.

And, we need it delivered to Alberta, Canada.

Can you help me with this?

Thanks, Darlene

 

Hi Darlene,

Indeed, I can!

Well, you have already figured out what NOT to buy....any mattress made with memory foam.

Natura of Canada Greenspring mattresses are made in Quebec.

These mattresses come with White Glove delivery anywhere within the Canadian mainland.

Delivery includes set-up in your bedroom and removal of your old mattress.

 

These mattresses are very high quality...using high quality components.

The individually pocketed coils maintain the natural alignment of your spine and will relieve your husband's back pain.

Those coils are firm and strong, made of double tempered steel.

The upholstery is Natural Talalay Latex...and contains NO Memory Foam.

That line of mattresses, shown here:

We sleep on the Ultra Plush model, at home, which is the most comfortable of the 4 models.

Ours is nearly 5 years old, and still in like new condition....with each of us weighing over 200 lbs.

And despite my weight and having several disc related back problems, I sleep and wake with no back pain.

Buying a Simmons Beautyrest Mattress from a Hotel.

Curtis writes:

 

Hi Pete, 

I ran across your blog and read some of the articles. A few things i really had not thought about.

> 1. Buying a mattress used in a hotel chain.

        Specifically, that the mattress was designed for part time use and not daily use.

> 2. Body perspiration decreases life of mattress

> 3. Materials used.

 

With that said, we bought a Westin Heavenly bed some years ago after staying in a Westin Hotel. 

We still love the mattress but it is now past its time and has indentations in it (an has for years). 

In the last year, or so, we loved the bedding at the Even and Holiday Inn Hotels as well as the Kimpton’s all IHG hotels. When I asked hotel staff at the Even about the mattress, I was told the Simmons Beautyrest Pillow Top. 

Since I was not given the exact details and I know their mattresses are custom made for them, which one? 

Now the Kimpton does sell their mattresses on line to consumers. 

We loved the comfort and cool feel of both Even and Kimpton mattresses. 

But from reading your articles we are hesitate to purchase, fearing we will regret it in a short time. 

And that we will be buying another mattress in short order. 

Based on the information provided, what would you recommend. 

Not sure if this helps, but my wife and I both sleep on our sides.

Thanks, Curtis

 

Hi Curtis,

There's a couple of way to go about this.

Simmons Beautyrests, made for hotels, have no memory foam in them.

Simmons Beautyrests made for retail, are almost all memory foam.

To buy just a mattress, you're better off getting it from a hotel.

However, buying from a hotel gets you a low end, Silver Series Beautyrest, for which you will pay a premium price.

 

My suggestion is to get a Platinum Series Beautyrest in Luxury Firm and adding a 2" or 3" Plush Latex Topper to it.

The Platinum Series has a lot more coils and you can overcome the negative effects of the memory foam with the latex topper.

The latex topper will provide an extraordinarily comfortable sleeping surface and prevent the premature wear of the mattress, caused by the memory foam. In short, it will last a whole lot longer than the manufacturer intended.

Comfort Direct Mattress Foam Topper Replacement.

Doug writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I bought a king-size self-adjusting mattress from Comfort Direct 15 years ago. I have been very satisfied with it. 

But now, the foam topper has started to sag in the middle where our hips are. 

I want to order a new one but I cannot find any contact info. for the company. 

Can anyone help?

Thanks, Doug

 

Hi Doug,

I entered “comfort direct mattress” in a google search, and found this.

http://adjustablebedmart.com/comfortdirectmattresses.html

 

A word of warning.

Much has changed in this industry over the past 15 years...and not for the better.

The chances of buying the same quality mattress, today, is highly remote.

Thee thing to avoid, is memory foam. So, check the specifications and don’t assume that the quality will be the same as it was.

If all you need is a replacement latex topper, try the Pure Bliss Natural Talalay Latex Toppers.

Hip Pain on a Too Firm Serta Mattress.

Julianna writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I'm a shapely female, who is having hip pain on the Serta mattress I recently purchased.

The mattress is too firm.

My question is, should I trade it for a softer model or add something to the top to soften it.

The store, where I bought it, charges a pretty penny to make the swap.

Your advice and guidance is greatly appreciated, Julianna

 

Hi Julianna,

Do not swap that mattress for a softer one.

The upholstery material, that Serta uses in all of their mattresses, is memory foam.

Memory foam is specifically designed to cause a mattress to need frequent replacing.

While neither lasts very long, softer memory foam is even shorter lived than firmer memory foam.

Instead, add a Pure Bliss 3" Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper to the mattress you have.

Shown here:

https://themattressexpert.com/pure-latexbliss-toppers/

 

Latex is the best upholstery material on the planet, and has been for the last 100 years.

The latex topper will do two things.

First, the latex topper will give you the surface comfort you need to relieve your hip pain.

Second, latex is extremely resilient and equally long lasting. It will absorb your body weight and cause the mattress to last form many years longer then the manufacturer intended.

It's the only thing you can buy that will more than pay for itself.

My Wife is Having Hip Pain. Which Pure Bliss Natural Talalay Latex Mattress Topper?

John writes:

 

Hi Pete,

My wife is a side sleeper and she is having hip pain.

After reading your blog posts on the subject, I learned that I can relieve her pain by adding a latex topper.

Which Pure Bliss natural Talalay latex topper should I buy to add to our mattress?

Thank you, John

 

Hi John,

For a female side sleeper with hip pain, the Pure Bliss 3" Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper is the one to get.

My wife has a sensitive hip, as do many women. We use the 3" plush, at home, and it does a fine job of relieving her pain.

My Natura Greenspring Plush Mattress is Too Firm.

Hi Pete,

I'm embarrassed to write you about this.

You recommended that I buy the Natura Greenspring Ultra Plush mattress.

I'm sorry to say that I second guessed your advice, worried that the ultra plush would be too soft.

So, I bought the Plush model.

Well, I've had this mattress for a couple of months and have to admit that I was wrong to have not taken your advice.

So now, I need a plush latex topper to go on it.

I see that the Pure Bliss latex toppers, that you often recommend, comes in 2" and 3".

Which would you recommend for me?

Thank you for all your honest advice, Linda

 

Hi Linda,

I remember. I understood why you made the choice of Plush, and hoped it wouldn't come to this.

But, that is an easy thing to fix.

If you are a back or stomach sleeper, then go with the 2".

If you are a side sleeper, the 3" will give better at the hip...(the usual sore spot for female side sleepers).

Warranty is Void, Due to Stains on the Mattress.

Jason writes:

 

Hi Pete,

I'm very upset.

My wife and I purchased a memory foam mattress less than a year ago. (not from you).

It began becoming uncomfortable a few months in. Now, it has deep impressions in it.

So, we call the store, where we bought it, and they sent someone out to inspect it.

The impressions are, in fact, deep enough to get an exchange. 

But, they tell me that the warranty is void, due to stains on the mattress.

This mattress does sleep hot, which makes me sweat. The stains on the mattress are perspiration stains.

Now, I'm stuck with a worthless mattress.

Do I have any recourse, either with the factory that made it, or legally?

Thanks, Jason

 

Hi Jason,

The "Stain Cause" is written in stone, by every mattress manufacturer.

The reason is because if the upholstery material get wet, they lose their resiliency much more quickly.

Most folks tend to not worry about this, thinking that if they don't eat of drink in bed, there should be no worries.

They don't think about perspiration, which is the most common reason why a mattress gets a stain.

I doubt, very much, that you will prevail with the factory or in the legal arena.

 

This is the main reason why we recommend using a waterproof mattress protector with every mattress.

Keeping the upholstery materials clean and dry will extend the life of the mattress.

https://themattressexpert.com/bedding/sleepbeyond/

Be sure to get one for whatever mattress you buy next.

But before you do, there's a way to salvage the mattress you have.

The memory foam is only on top. It is supported by high density poly foam, which does not sleep hot.

Flip your mattress over. The underside will be much firmer than the top side is.

If too firm, simply add a Pure Bliss 3" Plush Natural Talalay Latex Topper to it for surface comfort.

The latex topper also sleeps cool.
