pure LatexBLISS Talalay Latex Mattress

My wife has been diagnosed with Dermatomyositis with muscle
involvement. She is in a lot of pain, sleeping is difficult. We
currently sleep on a Sealy pillow top that is 10 years old. I have
been looking at memory foam mattresses because a friend of ours has RA
and Lupus and sleeps on a Tempur-pedic mattress, but she does not have
the difficulty moving or pain my wife has. I need something that will
help her with the pain when sleeping and is not extremely hard to move
on and is not to hot to sleep on. I know that this is not a easy task
but any help would be extremely appreciated.
Thanks, Robert

Hi Robert,
Many people are unaware of the health benefits of an all latex mattress, as they are not as well promoted as memory foam.
Latex is natural rubber that relieves all of the body's pressure points, relaxes every muscle group and eases blood flow...for the best support and most comfort available. 
For the past 20 years, these benefits have been promised with memory foam, but fall far short of delivering on that promise. Consisting of 61 different chemicals, some toxic, memory foam is a temperature sensitive material. It softens as it warms from your body heat. It then creates a well you sink into, leaving you unable to change position without fully waking up. It also reflects that absorbed heat back to you, making for a very hot sleeping surface.
Latex has been the highest quality material available for nearly 90 years, lasting far longer than memory foam with none of the negative side effects or use of those dangerous toxic chemicals.
Latex is not temperature sensitive. It sleeps cool and is as easy to change position on as any innerspring mattress.
Here is the link to the pure LatexBLISS line of Talalay Latex. They are and have been the premier manufacturers of Talalay Latex for more than 60 years.

The question becomes, "Which model to choose?".
Part of the beauty of getting a latex mattress is the additional availability of the latex mattress toppers, which are used to alter the surface feel to your taste.
As you look at the link, you'll notice the price points from least expensive. They correspond to the firmness levels. The Pamper model is the firmest of them, but not a hard bed. They get a little softer with each level up. The Beautiful model, in my opinion, provides as luxurious a feel as anyone could want. The World's Best Bed model strikes me as being too soft.
Again, it's almost impossible to make a mistake. If you choose a lesser expensive model and find it firmer than you would like, adding a topper solves the problem.
When it comes to minimizing, and even eliminating, pain...there is no better choice than latex.

Please, let me know if you have any further questions.

A latex mattress for joint and back pain relief

I have slept on a water bed for the last twenty years because of joint and lower back problems. The water bed has fixed that problem but its time to find a new bed with the same quality so I can sleep all night. Please any advice will help.

Hi,

The best choice for continued relief of joint & back pain is an all latex mattress. Check out our website for the latex options available.

Scoliosis and severe back pain, Reverie Dream System Latex Mattress & Adjustable Bed Base

Jessica writes:

Hi,

Last year (2012) I underwent scoliosis correction surgery where they fused my whole thoracic spine (10 vertebrae). My scoliosis situation is a little different in the sense that most people with scoliosis only have one curve, as to where I had 3. Cervical/thoracic/lumbar. My lumbar was not corrected or fused but I do have DDD. I have severe pain and inflammation each day and I do not sleep through out the night on my current pillow top mattress which is pretty old and as  I read you say pillow tops do not hold up for very long...I purchased a topper for my bed but feel it rolls us to the middle of the bed.

Now I have the needs listed above but I also have to accommodate my husband who has sleep apnea...would you suggest something like a sleep number where we can each adjust to our own needs? My needs fluctuate depending on the pain and inflammation level. Please help any advice on a mattress before I start the process of buying would be very helpful.

Thank you, Jessica

Hi Jessica,

There is a mattress that is totally customizable...providing firmer support exactly where you need it and softness, also exactly where you need it. It is the only true innovative mattress that has value. The manufacturer is Reverie and only sells their mattresses with their adjustable bed bases...which your husband needs. Since you need both, it's the perfect choice for you.

Given that your back is uniquely screwed up, the ability to target each spot on your back precisely with the exact degree of firmness is of great value to you.

Here is the link to those items.

Reverie Dream Sleep System ~ Latex Mattress and Adjustable Foundation

Phyllis writes:

I am so confused - I have a bad back and hip, weigh 111, athletic at
55 yrs. I narrowed my mattress choices to Macy's beautyrest black
(Margaret) and airloom W hotel collection vitagenic cushion firm
luxetop. Which is higher quality? What's the difference between
beautyrest legend & beautyrest black? Which is better quality? I am
getting an adjustable bed frame as well, so I need a matress that will
work on adjustable frame. So now, I'm reading that pillowtop is not
ideal for my back. I am a back and side sleeper & sometimes my arms go
numb. What do you recommend? And can you let me know about differences
with legend vs black, w collection vs beautyrest?

Hi Phyllis,

With retailers providing so little useful information, it's little wonder you're confused.

Frankly, I'm stymied to understand why anyone would buy from retailers so unwilling to be forthcoming with their information.

While I won't do your shopping for you, I will direct you to the best mattress/adjustable bed sleep system on the market.

It's the Reverie Dream System and here is the link...complete with all the information about them.

A mattress for a large man

Vicki writes:

Hi Peter:
My husband and I bought a Stearns & Foster latex mattress in December 2011. By 

February 2013 he had a 1.75" inch impression on his side of the bed and I had a 

1.5" impression on mine. He is 5'11", weighs 270 and I am 5'4" and weigh 130. 

We exchanged it for a Stearns & Foster Heidi in Luxury Firm and put a 2" Talahay 

latex topper on it. He had already developed an impression by July of this year so

 we rotated it and now he has an impression on that side. My side is fine. We are 

considering the Reverie system but would like to know how resistant it is to body 

impressions. Also, do you know anything about the intelliBED mattress. Their warranty

 states you only need a .75" impression for replacement instead of 1.5". I will greatly 

appreciation any information you can share with me.

 Vicki

Hi Vicki,
Body impressions have always been an issue...even back when mattresses were two 

sided and padded with horse hair and cotton, before foams were used. Poly foam 

doesn't keep it's shape as well as cotton. Now, the body impression issue is worse than

 ever...with the prolific use of memory foam on one sided mattresses.
Using a firm mattress with a latex topper is the best way around it. I have a friend 

your husband's size. I fixed him up with a firmer mattress than the Heidi and a firmer,

 Dunlop latex topper. He and his wife have had that bed for 5 years and it looks, feels 

and sleeps like new.
When you carry excessive body weight, you have to take it into consideration. 
Quite often, large people insist on focusing on comfort, choosing to ignore that which,

 time after time, comes back to haunt them. You simply cannot continually ignore the 

laws of physics.
The Heidi luxury firm with a 2" soft Talalay latex topper has worked well over the past 

several years for average to above average weight people. When dealing with larger 

people, you'll have to give up the notion of a luxury feel for the sake of durability.
The .75" body impression threshold is one of the latest addition to an over loaded BS

 sales pitch.
The mediocre Sealy Posturepedic has a .75" warranty criteria, also. Wait until you try 

and get a warranty claim past the warranty nazis who deny authorization for whatever 

reason they can find.

The Reverie comes with a lifetime warranty and will replace any of the latex cylinders 

as is necessary. However, their mattress cannot be purchased without one of their 

adjustable bed bases. If you're in the market for an adjustable bed, that's great. Both

 pieces, together, add up to a price point that most people can't afford.
Opt for the 2" Dunlop latex topper.

Best mattress to support our different body types, Reverie Latex

Stephanie writes:

 

Hi Peter,
My husband and I are trying to determine which type of bed we should be targeting.  My husband is 6'2 and 300 lbs; I am 5'2 and 100 lbs.  The Vera Wang latex, non-flippable bed we've had for 4 years isn't cutting it.  There's just not enough support for my husband and I end up rolling toward the middle because the bed sags down where he sleeps.  He sleeps in the crater; I sleep on the slope.  Not comfortable for either.  There's got to be something strong for men his size.

We briefly looked into a Sleep Number bed that claims to  be able to accommodate our different requirements, but I'm reading many negative reviews and thinking an "air" bed is not the best answer for support... especially for the price and all the mechanics.  More things that will surely go wrong.

A writer wrote to you last year posing a similar question in weight differences and you recommended the Therapedic Medi-Coil Permatuft Plush with Latex, which I read you personally designed.  I'd like to know why this mattress would be your objective, unbiased, expert recommendation... especially when it's only available online.

Thanks for any assistance you can provide,

Stephanie

Hi Stephanie,

Up til now, your circumstances have been among the most difficult to address. Last year, the best solution we had was the Therapedic Medi-Coil, which will hold your husband. And while that mattress would be too firm for you, the surface could always be softened with a latex topper.

Today, we have available the Reverie Latex Mattress. Using cylinders made of latex, each half of the mattress can be made to accommodate both of you...with firmer cylinders on his half and softer cylinders on your half. And, with you having the ability to unzip the top and re-arrange those cylinders any way you want to suit every body contour. It is a true innovation in mattress engineering and comes with a lifetime warranty. It's the perfect solution to solving your particular problem. 

 

Thanks, Pete

Reverie Latex, Simmons Beautyrest World Class, Stearns & Foster Mattress‏

Hi Pete,
The Simmons Beautyrest World Class have two layers of memory foam, which I thought you did not like for the aforementioned reasons.

Is there any high quality firm tight top that does not include memory foam? I am in favor of the individually wrapped springs.

The Reverie is probably my first choice, but the only store that has one for me to try out is 80 miles away.

I see you sell the Reverie for the same price as the company and everyone else - I assume they do not allow discounting?

 

Hi,

The memory foam from Simmons is different. It doesn't leave a hand print when you press into it. It is far less temperature sensitive and far more resilient than regular memory foam. It's the only memory foam, tested and certified safe from off gassing.

We've recommended the Annapolis Place luxury firm with a latex topper countless times over the years, always with good result. It provides everything your body needs...firm support and a comfortable sleeping surface that will stay comfortable.

Simmons Beautyrest Recharge World Class Annapolis Place Firm mattress

Dear Expert,
I am 330 lbs. I bought a mid-level Simmons firm 5 years ago and like you say it has sunk in the middle due to layer deterioration (loved it for some time - not now!) and I have back pain. Is your mattress bove recommended for me? Thx.

Hi,

This would be a classic case of doing what you did before and expecting a different result.

Nothing made by Simmons, Sealy, Stearns & Foster or Setra will hold a man your size for longer than a short time. 5 years would be the maximum you could expect from the best models any of them make.

You do have a couple of good options, however. Latex holds up very well under people your size.

Here are links to our latex lines, any of which, will do a fine job over the long term.

http://themattressexpert.com/EverEden-Latex.html

http://themattressexpert.com/pure-latexbliss.html

http://themattressexpert.com/natura/latexmattress/

 

Also available, are a couple of two-sided innersprings the were specifically engineered to hold you over the long term. Our heaviest customers, using this mattress, top 500 lbs.

The firm model is down right hard. We used latex at the surface of the plush model to take the edge off. But, as plush models go, it's still a firm mattress. Here are the links to those.

Replacing a horrible Sealy Pillowtop Mattress with a Latex Mattress

I need help purchasing the perfect mattress after surviving a horrible Sealy pillow 

top mattress that we just purchased 4 years ago. That mattress just collapsed, 

forming individual valleys where we slept. My husband weighs approximately 300 lbs

 and I'm half that size. What mattress would you suggest we buy that would provide

 comfort and support for us both as well as longevity. We both like to sleep on our 

side or back.

Hi,
Nothing from the major brands will hold a man your husband's size for very long. 

5 years would be the most you could expect from the strongest models in their lines.
We carry some two-sided mattresses that were engineered to hold very large people,

 but they do lack the comfort you're looking for.
The very best way to get the support he needs, the comfort you want and the 

longevity that has been thus far lacking, is with an all latex mattress.
We carry three lines of latex mattresses. The EverEden is where you go for price 

without sacrificing quality. The pure LatexBLISS, all Talalay latex is where you go for

 what has been considered top of the line quality for the past 60 years. The Reverie 

line represents true innovation...the only mattress that is totally customizeable latex

 mattress, using latex cylinders of various firmnesses that can be re-arranged in the

 mattress to give each sleeper exactly what they want and need. 

Here are the links to those lines. They can all be ordered on line. Delivery is free and

 there's no sales tax.

Justice & Jamison Latex Mattress‏

I am shopping for a Latex mattress. I have looked at a Justice and a

Jan

Hi Jan,

Not being able to get specific information should be a red flag.

There are lots of latex mattresses on the market. Some are latex hybrids

with a poly foam base that sell as latex mattresses.

Even if the mattress is all latex, is it part synthetic? Are fillers used? Is it

pure latex? Is it Talalay Latex or Dunlop?

The retailer where you saw these mattresses should have the answer to

those questions.

We carry 3 lines of high quality all-Latex mattresses. Take a look before

deciding on what to buy. Here are the links.
