Should You Switch To A Natural Latex Mattress? Pros Vs. Cons.

[@MisterMonsterMan]

I have been on natural latex with pillow top for 4 years or so now, and its fantastic. Highly recommended.

Opaqueness do you have soft , medium firm or firm? I’m 5”6 and 115lbs.

Hi Christina. Thanks for watching and commenting. Have a great day! I have more videos about natural latex mattresses on the way. Stay tuned!

I've been deeply researching natural latex mattresses and just purchased one from Sleep Essentials. I wonder why they're not on your list.

[@scramscolly]

I am considering purchasing a mattress from Sleep Essentials as well. How did you end up liking yours?

[@fireweedalaska1984]

@@scramscolly Here are some disjointed thoughts: I'm not 100 percent in love with it, but I might not have the best mix for me of the three layers (I think I have firm, firm, soft, but I'm not sure right now). It's comfortable enough that I simply haven't gotten around to doing anything about it, which also means that because I've taken so long, I'll have to pay for different layers. Also, one issue is that on my full-size mattress, the edges are firmer than the rest of the mattress, I think because they get compressed by the mattress cover (the layers come cut a bit larger than the mattress size). I think on a larger mattress (queen or king), this compression might be less noticeable because there is simply more mattress for a person or people to spread out on. Also, it's possible that no mattress will be perfect for me. I do very very very much like that I'm not sleeping on a mattress that emanates toxic gases. I hope this is helpful. If you find a great non-toxic mattress other than Sleep Essentials, I would love to know about it.

[@fireweedalaska1984]

@@scramscolly Added note (see my other post): It's true that the mattress is heavy and unwieldy. And manipulating the layers takes a bit of technique (not hard to learn from the video).

[@fireweedalaska1984]

@@scramscolly P.P.S. Although the edges are firmer than the rest of the mattress, they are not rigid as on many other mattresses. I do not like that rigid firmness on other mattresses, even though it can provide a slightly more stable edge to sit on. The edges on the Sleep Essentials mattress are only somewhat firmer, and that is only because of having to compress the slightly too-large mattress edges to squeeze them into the cover.

[@scramscolly]

Thank you so much for taking the time to give such thorough replies, I really appreciate it! I am very new to researching latex mattresses, I was researching mattresses in general and was actually deciding on one of the 'mattress in a box' memory foam types, until Sleep Essentials mattress education video popped up in my recommendations and I learned about all the toxins in those mattresses and the cheap materials and it stopped me in my tracks. So I am set on now wanting a latex mattress and getting feedback from real customers is really helpful. The assembly of this mattresses was one of my main concerns with it.

‘Natural mattress finder’! The name strongly suggests the bias and leaning of the report, and we’re not disappointed!

I had to laugh at the disadvantages when you weigh all the pros to this up. Except for cost, that is a disadvantage but what price can you put on health?

Latex ones to buy in Europe quite rare... :(

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Yes, unfortunately I only cover the United States for the time being.

[@hermes8258]

They are popular among the upper class in Southeast Asia (where rubber trees grow, e.g. Malaysia and Vietnam). I first discovered their advantages in Cambodia. But very few hotels even in Thailand use them because of their high price and difficulty moving them.

[@kenstanton9962]

I've tried many natural latex products, all latex bed by Sherwood that sunk bad very quickly,, Latex Toppers, and most recently a Nest Latex Hybrid. The first one lasted 2 years, got lumpy and sank in the middle, they replaced it and the second one went 1 year, developed a hard spot down the center and felt lumpy like all the other latex products I've tried. NOT believing they last longer from my experiences, all have gotten lumpy within 2 years, some two months! Being very biodegradable I think it starts breaking down before it ever leaves Malaysia. I'm out, going with a higher quality foam bed myself.

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Hi Ken, sorry to hear about your experience with the Sherwood mattress. If you're staying with natural latex for your next mattress, I suggest going with a latex layer that is 3-rd party certified by GOLS, Oeko Tex or Eco Institut. I would recommend the Idle Sleep Latex to you: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/recommends/natural-dunlop-latex-hybrid-by-idle-sleep/. It is two sided, so you can rotate, and flip to ensure the comfort layers last as long as possible. I've been sleeping on this mattress for close to a year and no sagging so far.

[@svenvanderzwaag1012]

This is just bs. Latex lasts about 2 to 3 times longer compared to even the best of foams. You probably didnt use a quality mattressprotector because yes when latex gets wet is will sag, but otherwise it will last for decades. There is also the chance your mattress was to soft or the support layer was not supportive enough.

[@kenstanton9962]

@@svenvanderzwaag1012 If it's BS why did Nest give me a new one? They agreed it was defective that's why. Not BS my friend but my experience, isn't that what these comments are for? geesh

Natural does not always equate to healthy. Asbestos is natural.

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Yes, but in this context, natural latex may be healthier than polyurethane foam and synthetic fiber that is treated with fire retardant chemicals.

We had an all latex mattress and it was a HUGE mistake! It is extreeeeemely heavy and veeeery difficult to move from room to room and house to house! If there were some way to enclose it in a frame with handles, then we might consider getting one in the future.

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Hello, thanks for writing in. I go into a little bit of detail about moving the Spindle mattress, an all-latex core mattress that has three 3" latex layers in this article: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/spindle-mattress-review/ . I found that disassembling the mattress and moving it piece by piece was the most effective way to move it. I could actually move it around by myself by separating the layers, rolling them up and tying them. More details can be found in this "ALL-NATURAL LATEX MATTRESS PROS AND CONS" guide: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/all-natural-latex-mattress-pros-and-cons/ All latex core mattresses are fantastic since they are pressure relieving and customizable in your own home thanks to the zippered cover. But I would not recommend this type of mattress to someone that moves around a lot. It is best to go with a natural latex hybrid if you plan to move your mattress frequently. www.naturalmattressfinder.com/latex-mattresses/

[@svenvanderzwaag1012]

Latex being heavy is actually a very good thing. The higher the density of a foam the higher the quality and the longer it will resist sagging. High density foam does not mean it will be hard. It can be very soft and high density at the same time. The density of latex is one of the most important factors why it outlasts regular foam.

[@MrMarkmill]

I will bet $10000000000 that goodwill delivery truck that picks up an UNWANTED bed takes a turn on 395 and goes back to the manufacturer to be shipped out again..........want to bet?

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Hi Steven, are you talking about a new mattress or an old mattress? In any case, I would say that yes, it is not impossible. But I would also say that this would be very unlikely.

[@hermes8258]

Are you being paid by how many times you repeat "all natural latex mattress" or are you trying to influence the KZbin algorythm? BTW, there is no legal definition of 'natural'. Likewise 'volatile chemical gases'. Essential oils fit that definition. According to the manufacturer/seller of the natural latex pillow I bought today in Bangkok there are four grades of latex from trees and none of them are 100%. That is impossible chemically. The best one can get is 93% (maybe the rest is water).

Hi Michae1, you may be confusing latex gloves (the blue surgical kind) with latex foam, which is more breathable than polyurethane.

[@michae1201]

@@NaturalMattressFinder it was 95% natural latex liquid polymer plus 5% other materials to convert into natural latex foam... mine was medium density, and I needed a wool topper to stop sweating in winter. Maybe a "firm" density won't cause heating issues as there is less sagging/sinking... although my wool topper was 5-7cm thick soft/plush
