My current mattress is 10 years old and I am about to replace it. I have found a traditional Stearns and Foster that I like very much. I have also looked at a Latex Foam Mattress by Natural Response that seems pretty interesting and 25% more expensive.
Does anyone here sleep on a Latex Foam mattress and what are your impressions? I am just afraid that if I bought one I would love it for a short time but then find it disappointing. Thanks in advance.

I read a recent article, and it was something I had never heard before.

When people purchase and have a new mattress delivered, some companies haul away the old one. They put in same truck, along with other new mattresses for next stop. The article cautioned about how this practice can spread bed bugs, and the huge nuisance of getting rid of from house once infested.

I was very much impresssed by the company which delivered my mattress.

Mattress was dilivered in the box which was open in the drive away and mattress was rapped in the plastic covers which were opened in the bedroom. Even though they put the old mattress in the same truck but new mattresses were in the boxes so it is not a big deal. I don't about other companies how do they do it.

If you are that much concerned with the bugs then probably you should be more worried with the food (esp. canned food). Guess where it is stored? In the ware houses, and it is favorite hang out for the rats too!!

Reason for mentioning this is many people ingnore to clean the cans before opening it.

Thank you for your reply posted 1/9. I was just notified that the store I have been working with has received a new Sealy Posturepedic Spring Free for me to try. Price is virtually the same as the Carrington Chase Bayshore (Reflexions Island Rose/Newport Beach). Seems hard to believe because you think it is a superior product and should be more expensive. I do trust the owner of the store. This is a very small place and I believe his costs and mark-up are low. He tells me he sleeps on a latex mattress. Assuming my wife and I like the feel, sounds like I should jump at it, no? Do you know in what way this new mattress and box spring are superior to the old? Thanks.

Make sure you can try it for 90 days, just in case you don't like it.
We returned the SEaly Huntington Beach latex mattress after 2 weeks.
I hope latex works for you.

I finally ended up buying a Sealy Springfree Meadows Latex mattress. So far so good. I wake up without the aches and pains I had before. I am glad I waited for this model to come out. Thanks Bob

for "bumping" this post. Will be purchasing new mattress in the next three months and won't have to do the "searching" for past posts that you provided.

A year ago I bought a Venice Beach based on Bob's recommendations for a latex mattress and my own testing at the local dealer. It was a fine mattress but a bit soft for me so I then bought a Manhattan Beach, which is just splendid. Best night's sleep ever.

I moved the Venice Beach mattress to the guest bedroom and get consistent raves from folks who stay over, often asking me what kind or brand it is.

A latex mattress is the best, in my opinion.

Thanks to Bob for his expertise.

One of the best rewards in life is to be of service to others. It is gratifying that some of you have benefited from this and other mattress threads. As you can see, your mattress does make a difference.

Ray - we also experience that same reaction from our guests. It is not uncommon for them to "sleep in" and wake up with comments like "I haven't slept like that in years" or "I can't believe I slept so late".

Simmons has jumped in with a Latex selection but it seems expensive compared with Sealy's line. I still believe that Sealy's Spring Free line is the best for your money right now in the market.
