This guy is spot on. Mattress industry is crazy corrupt. Get yourself some 8" springs, a 3" latex topper, and a zippered mattress cover. Boom. Done. Best bed ever.

I thought he was being honest because he explained the differences but pointed out that it comes down to personal preference

I grew up with a latex mattress in the 1950s. Now going back to one. This video is really helpful.

My current setup is a homemade hybrid. 4 inch latex topper on a basic firm innerspring mattress.

I've had a very high quality 100% latex mattress over the past 8 years. As a larger side sleeper I found it doesn't yield the best support and I frequently get lower back pain from lack of spinal alignment.

So what you're saying is it's all a crapshoot until you try it out for yourself...so make darn sure there's a return policy!

Good to know about the hybrid side sleeping thing. We just ordered a tight top pocket coil mattress and plan to add a latex topper to make our own "hybrid" mattress.

Thanks for the video. I didn't see any other videos comparing the 2 types of cores. You said you have to go and try out what feels best. That is hard to do with so many internet-based options. I guess it is just... see if you can find what you like locally and if not or if you want to try to save some money, do some initial research to determine what you think will be best, then order one and try it out until you find one that works.

We bought a temperpedic cloud in 2012 because we are both mostly side sleepers and it was great until about 7 years and then I noticed a lack of support beginning in 2019. Here we are in 2023 still dealing with it as I just can't decide on what mattress to trust again. I thought $5000 for seven good years a bit much. I am currently putting a folded towel under a foam topper to get some support. The other consideration is that my husband has gained 50 to 60 lbs since 2012 and is now at 250. I'm at 116. So I'm thinking we will need to go firmer for longevity with mattress topper for cushioning the joints. He also sleeps hot and I don't. Have considered a split king but don't want an XL. I am really missing the Serta Perfect Sleeper , top of the line, we got in 1987 or so. Got 18 years out of it by flipping. So comfortable! Looking for that AH! feeling I always felt when I laid on it. :(

Very informative, man!

What if you had a soft talalay on top then a med dunlop and then firm dunlop. Wouldn't that solve the problem of bottoming out if you are a side sleeper? Especially if you weigh over 250? or say 2 soft talalay and a firm dunlop? I can feel the springs pushing back on the hybrids and I always bottom out on the memory foams. Have yet to try latex. Im still on the hunt for that right mattress for a heavy side sleeper.

We tried a latex hybrid from sleep ez and loved it for about a year...then the springs broke down and had impressions then we hated it. Back hurt, neck hurt. If i buy another it will have no springs

Where can i buy the king zoned pocket coils for our diy mattress ? don't see it as an option on your site.. Thanks

Super helpful info! Thank you!

Thank you

That full latex will outlast anything.

This is a question of durability between latex base core versus pocketed coil base.

Innersprings can absorb your weight better but the fabric that they put across it can easily put pressure on your hips as it kind of limits the flexibility.

I want to go hybrid

This was great. Thank you.

Which brand is good for certified latex beds? Because there all online dont wanna buy junk...brands do know

I have ms, which is better for firmness, I sleep on my back but, my mom tells me I tend to turn over on my stomach. I do not like the falling feeling that I tend to have on some mattresses.

Great vid

Slept on latex bed for 10 years and I'm going back to spring mattress now. On latex mattress, it's hard to turn, because you're sort of "stuck in a ditch". The spring mattress will push you to help roll into another position, but latex has no push back. So I find that when I roll during the sleep, I have to lift my torso up with my arm and roll in the same position, vs just easily rolling over to another part of the mattress. This really does not help with sleep due to over exertion to do a simple roll during a sleep..

I just ordered the Botanical Bliss 12 inch in medium- I hope I ordered the right one. I chose the all latex because I was concerned it would cause to much pressure as they only have about 4 inches of latex. I am about 5’5” and 212# kinda nervous 😬

Ok I'm 225lbs will a 3in latex topper be enough to support me if I go with the hybrid or should I go with 2 two inch toppers?

Hi, I have tried multiple beds the last few months and have decided to try latex since none of them were right for me. Can you tell me which latex bed you would recommend for me? I am 120 pounds, combination sleeper. I do not like the feel of memory foam and prefer more of a traditional mattress feel, like I am on top of the mattress rather than sinking into it. I sleep hot, and all of the hybrid beds I have tried claim to be cooling but are not at all. I prefer a balance of soft but firm for support. I have watched so many videos as well as read many reviews and cannot figure out which would be best for me and I am tired of buying and returning. Please help!

I bought a Tempurpedic mattress when Tempurpedic was new and it was the original and only mattress they sold. It's very dense and only nine inches deep which worked great on my adjustable bed. I want to have that exact mattress again but Tempurpedic no longer sells it. Can you tell me who sells a very dense 100% Latex foam mattress that's only nine inches deep?

What are the density of mattress please?

what is the minimum latex thickness required over a pocket spring hybrid?

thanks very helpful

Why is it on latex 9" for less same mattresses and you want alot more is $799.00 size twinxl at latex for less factory. And they will mail it to you. What's the difference. Latex Dunlop & Talalay is latex. What makes it more expensive?

Will this spring bottom work with a adjustable bed?

Helpful. Thanks!!

Which one offers more bounce and better responsiveness?

For two people 6’ and 5’8 both sleeping together (weights approx 145 lbs and 123 lbs) he sleeps on his stomach and I sleep on my back..should I go with a hybrid or full latex?

Should i got for 3 inch latex or 6 inch for side sleeper...

Is there a weight difference?

I went to your website for the Guide i tried downloading it like 4 to 5 times to no luck. Please either fix it or don't waste peoples time... Thank you

ill agree with some things your saying, but the rest is hear say lol

Is there a 100% latex mattress that you can recommend that’s also vegan because I notice that every single one of them that I see so far has wool? 🥺

How does it perform as a topper on top of a soft Tempur-Pedic?

What’s the best mattress for $500? Queen and extra firm.

M On

Basically, its all about your preference. There I saved you 15 minutes of your life, you're welcome.

Not a single brand recommendation. Do latex mattresses exist? What’s going on? I hate being an adult.

It's pretty obvious this guy is being dishonest to the viewers, probably because he's overstocked on hybrids and needs to get rid of them. You can tell by his hesitant speech. All other bed maker videos get right down to it and tell you the Latex is hands down the better buy.

This guy is terrible
