The 5 Best 100% Natural Latex Mattress Toppers *2018*

[@pamellasmith2503]

Latex topper changed my life ♥️

[@randygreen007]

I have to disagree with your evaluation of the off gassing from the Pure Green topper. I just purchased the 3” medium firm topper and it’s a game changer for the sleep issues I’ve had for several months. That said it definitely has a strong smell initially but it did air out after a couple of days. I would suggest airing it out in another room or even a garage for a few days. I find this topper to be a bit more firm than expected even though I prefer a firm mattress. I would say it’s like sleeping on firm jello because while it is firm it has a small amount of give and bounce. I added a 2” softer memory foam to the top and now have the best bed I could have hoped for. I will eventually switch the memory foam to a 1 or 2 inch Pure Green soft topper to keep my sleep environment free from VOC’s. My cervical and lumbar aches as well as knee aches are definitely on the mend.

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Glad to hear that you found a comfortable bed setup by combining toppers of different thicknesses. Indeed, natural latex will have a faint smell when new. You can help limit this by using a fitted mattress cover. Airing it out like you did is a very good idea.

I sleep on a very firm mattress that causes pain in arm and back at night causing me to toss continuously trying to stop the pain. I do not experience pain during the day. I am 5'7" and 230 lbs. I am a combo sleeper that likes to sleep both on back and side. I would like to still retain some of the firmness of my mattress, plus get some softness to relieve pressure points. Should I buy a 2" or 3" topper and should I buy a soft of medium topper? Can you please recommend a brand of topper that would be better for me to wake up each morning without pain. Thanks, Lucy

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Hi Lucy, I recommend going with the 3" topper. Considering your bodyweight, I think a soft topper would not provide the proper support. A 3" medium firmness like this one www.naturalmattressfinder.com/recommends/plush-beds/ should provide a fantastic adjustment to your firm mattress.

[@MrThede02]

Intresting video, one question though, is the latex natural?

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Yes, it is natural. If you want a surefire way to tell if the product has genuine 100% natural latex, make sure it carries the GOLS certification: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/all-natural-mattress-certifications-and-ratings-guide/

[@keppela1]

Great vid, thanks very much. I'm naturally a back sleeper and like a firm mattress, but I recently developed apnea when sleeping on my back so I have to sleep mostly on my sides now. Unfortunately, my firm mattress makes my shoulders ache when I sleep on my sides, so that's why I'm looking into mattress toppers. Knowing that I like a firm feel overall, but have to create some softness and relief for my shoulders, would you recommend a "soft", "medium", or "firm" topper? Also, what size would be most optimal, a 1", 2", or 3"? Thanks very much for your recommendations!!

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Some toppers are zoned and offer varying firmnesses throughout the same topper. This is meant to alleviate the extra pressure at the hips and shoulders. Check out the Ultimate Sleep zoned topper www.naturalmattressfinder.com/recommends/100-natural-dunlop-zoned-topper-by-ultimate-sleep/ . The holes in its surface vary in size. This way the topper has several zones to give you a "tailored" sleep experience. Some other zoned natural latex toppers are available. Compare them here: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/toppers-comparison/

[@alexszantai2543]

Your shoulders hurt because of your pillow height. Its not the mattress trust me. I work as an ABC practitioner(chiropractor) so see this issue daily. Increase your pillow height and the pressure comes off from your shoulder. Be aware though you need to find the neutral height of your had on the pillow. If it`s heigher even with a centimetre could cause you having discomfort and will toss and turn cause of that.

Hey, I sleep on a fairly firm memory foam mattress at home, and am moving into an apartment. I am 150 and would like to keep a firmness and stability that I am used to. Should I go 2 or 3 inches, and medium firm or extra firm. Thank you!

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Hi Ben, If you are used to the firm memory foam mattress, you will probably be most comfortable on a firm latex. However, it is hard to predict how you will find the firmness after testing it out for a couple of days. If you are an all-around sleeper or a side sleeper, I recommend a 3-inch. If you are strictly a back sleeper or stomach sleeper I suggest the 2-inch. You can compare many natural latex topper models on the topper comparison table: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/toppers-comparison/

[@veronicawalker9273]

So now I’m looking for a topper that is natural/ organic. Although, tempted to send this mattress back. Not extremely comfortable but deceptive advertising is what really bugs me.

[@annat8556]

Memory foam does not last, sinks in, sleeps hot and is a money maker for greedy companies. Latex or regular foam is way better and lasts a whole lot longer.

Are you putting these in order of rating?

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

The toppers are presented in no particular order. They are all high-quality products with slight differences. For example, some of the third party certifications vary from one company to another. One might be GOLS certified while another might be Oeko-Tex certified.

[@naz220]

can these toppers be cut if one is downsizing from a queen size topper to a twin bed?

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Hi Faruk, yes, I imagine a natural latex topper can be cut down to size. However, you can't expect a clean cut if you're doing this yourself. If you absolutely have to cut the topper, I suggest making a test cut that narrower than needed in order to assess the efficacy of the tool you are using.

[@godhelptheinnocents7227]

Thank you. What and how bad is the smell on Pure Green mattresses? I'm concerned.

[@randygreen007]

Initially it’s strong but dissipates in a couple of days. I suggest airing it out in another room for a few days.

Do you have any information about the correct firmness and thickness of the mattress topper I should be using. I am male, weigh 185 and am a side sleeper with some lower back pain. Is there a website that helps determine this information? Thanks.

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Hi Bob, considering that your are a side sleeper, I recommend a 3-inch medium firmness. If you generally sleep comfortably on a medium firmness mattress, then a 3" medium topper will be perfect. Compare natural & non-toxic toppers here: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/toppers-comparison/

What is your opinion of Avocado latex topper? Their covers are canvas and wool which is a natural fire retardant and helps regulate body temp. Also I appreciate the depth of info on this vid review

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Yes, the Avocado topper is an excellent choice. It is a bit pricier than some toppers, but the cover is very high quality and has that wool fire barrier layer. Note that you will still need a breathable mattress protector to go over the topper.

Who makes the best firm/supportive dunlop latex bed/base for plus size sleepers 250-300lb? Something I can add a 3 inch soft latex topper to. Thx

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Hi BlackCanvas, I have the perfect natural latex mattress roundup for you: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/best-mattress-for-heavy-people/. The latex comfort layers of the mattresses that I feature in the post are very generous in terms of thickness. In other words, you wouldn't need to add a separate topper to get the most optimal comfort, pressure relief and breathability with any of the featured mattresses.

[@rejinmaryamjames8884]

[@free8946]

my king mattress is too soft. which is the cheapest fix?

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Sure, you can add a 2" or 3" firm topper to the mattress. All the firmness options for every brand are listed on the topper comparison page: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/toppers-comparison/ . Your particular mattress may have ultra-low density foam in the top layer. This does make the mattress too plush in some cases. But without seeing your mattress, I wouldn't be able to tell. So, if this is the case a medium firmness topper would be more appropriate.

[@raek7995]

What are your thoughts/recommendations concerning the Turmerry GOLS Organic Latex topper? I've been shopping for a topper for a while now and the more I research the more uncertain I am about what's right for me. I'm a side sleeper. 5'7" about 195lbs. My mattress is too firm and does not allow my shoulders and hips to sink in. As a result I wake up feeling like I've been using my muscles to hold myself up all night. Ugh! Can you help? I kinda just want someone to tell me what to buy at this point. Thanks in advance for the feedback.

[@molotovgod]

Did you get this topper? I am looking at that same one.

[@AlexP-jz9sg]

You didn’t really describe why each one was better or best. Just random information about specs and the Dunlop process dispersed throughout the video. Did you try them for comfort?

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Yes I have tried the www.naturalmattressfinder.com/recommends/pure-green-by-sleep-on-latex/ Pure Green topper. It is very comfortable and pressure relieving. Here is the video review: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJuboJt7q9-iisk There are so many variations of the toppers mentioned, with different firmnesses and thicknesses that it wouldn't make sense to try and review them all. I may have the opportunity to review more toppers in the future. Also, determining the comfort of a topper is very subjective as it depends on your bodyweight, sleeping position, firmness preference and topper thickness.

[@Phuong_Nguyen_]

I know latex and memory foam feels different but how different when they’re are the same density? What would a 4pound latex feel like compared to 4 pound foam

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

The natural latex would be heavier and more dense. That being said, upon testing both types of foam, natural latex has much more resistance once compressed. The memory foam has almost no pushback once it is compressed. In other words, once compressed, memory foam offers little support. Personally, I don't like memory foam because of the sinking sensation when shifting and the lack of support.

[@Condor1970]

I have a 6" talalay base core, but it's worn out. Is it OK to stack 2 - 3" toppers to make a new 6" base core?

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

If you have the 6" topper in a cover that you like, then yes. But if not, you're better off going with a new all foam mattress like a 6" Natural Bliss: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/recommends/plush-beds-10-natural-bliss-wool-free/

[@onebrightflash]

Yes. That is exactly how I made my new mattress. I was unsure about the firmness I would need so I bought 3 three inch toppers of soft ILD 20, medium ILD 29, and firm ILD 39. I weigh 300 lbs. The best combination for me was soft on top, medium in the middle with the firm on the bottom. I have another latex mattress I bought from Sears 26 years ago. I thought it was worn out because it felt lumpy. When I removed the mattress from the base I found the base fiber board cover was sagging between the support slats causing the lumpiness. Instead of buying a new base I bought two sheets of sanded plywood that I screwed to the top of the base. It restored my bed without having to replace the mattress. To get a long life from your latex mattress, It is important to keep a good mattress cover over your mattress to protect it from degrading UV light, dirt, and body fluids like sweat and mouth drool.

You say that the Vytex has no smell but upon reading reviews people have complained about the odor. Hmmmmmm. So who do I believe?

[@NaturalMattressFinder]

Natural latex does have an odour, but it is not offensive. The Vytex will not have a chemicals smell. Polyurethane mattresses sometimes off-gas into the entire room. The Vytex topper will have a faint natural latex smell, however, it is non-toxic and inoffensive. In any case, it is unlikely that you will be able to smell it through a mattress cover, and sheets. If you have doubts about the Vytex, there are many alternatives on my topper comparison pages: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/toppers-comparison/ Many people are pleased with the Pure Green Natural Latex Topper: www.naturalmattressfinder.com/recommends/pure-green-by-sleep-on-latex/
