one facebook market place latex mattresses are 1/10th - 1/20th of the price of brand new, and toppers are cheap on there too. a king size topper can be folded or cut in half and it makes a perfect single doubling the thickness of it. i will buy a second hand king topper soon and turn it into a single
If each latex layer had a cover, would that make it easier to assemble? Thx for sharing
Yes, a little bit, but how many times are you going to take apart your bed? 😅
@@ShawnXPS 😆Actually I have taken it apart many times trying to find the perfect comfort arrangement. It's not easy.
@@se5442 ahh, I see. Have you found the perfect order yet? I'm sort of leaning toward getting the hybrid with a coil spring base and a 3" latex topper.
@@ShawnXPS Well since my mattress failed around June and I had to start searching for a new one, I have learned as I go. With no info or idea of what I needed I purchased a hybrid(not latex); and I hated it; very painful to me. So I'm a few weeks into a 100-night-trial of all latex. I can't say I'm 100% sold. But I don't hate it like the hybrid. And the fact that rearranging the layers helps is in it's favor. But I would sure like to be finished with the mattress search and have restful nights. My layers were originally Firm/Medium Dunlop/Medium Talalay. I have a memory foam topper underneath it all after trying it in different positions. I am expecting delivery today of an additional medium dunlop layer to try.
p.s. I sleep on an adjustable base for years. Wouldn't want to sleep without it.
Hey, I am right there with you bad back same reason and all !!! Just starting to go down this road...Thanks !!!
This was really helpful. I watched your old video yesterday and was so happy to see a follow up video!
Dunlop latex gets the GOLS certification becauee its the REAL deal. Talalay latex is very expensive to make, so companies mix 30% of talalay latex and 70% synthetic latex. That is why it doesn't have the GOLS certification.
Could you add links in the description to where you bought all your stuff?
Solid video. I wish you mentioned if you liked it or not though.
Did you fasten the two toppers together? I once had a latex topper for my spring mattress and it would shift off to the side over time.
How did the firmness work out for your back?
Did you consider the hybrid coil’s
Wish I seen this before a bought my Latex mattress, I could have saved my self about a grand. Anyone looking to do this, you have to make sure your latex is 100% sap from a tree rubber. Not all latex is. Talalay processed latex can as much as 80% synthetic, plastic, and still be called natural. The GOLS certification is one of those things to look for. Dunlop processed latex is more likely to be 100% natural sap from a tree. And yes, anyone seriously looking to buy a bed should watch the Sleep Essentials videos. The information is an eye opener.
As long as you buy Talalay that says "100% natural" you will get 100% stuff. If the seller doesn't specify that the Talalay is 100% natural, then it is a blend for sure
Thank you for all the detailed information.
Nice I built one of these too. 9" of dunlop and a 1" gel topper. Built me a Cali king.
What firmness do you use?
@@jim.zuzukiz3583 just dug those details up. 6" base core is a 36 ILD, 3" topper is medium (28-33) & then I added a 1" gel topper to make it a bit plushy. Paid $1,348 total.
@@johnspencer8982 do you think a 3 inch soft talalay topper would be ok for a side sleeper
@@jim.zuzukiz3583 do you have a firm base? Or are you adding this to an old matress?
@@johnspencer8982 going to build a latex mattress, was going to get the medium Dunlop 3 inch to start and try then maybe a firm Dunlop 3 inch for bottom layer then maybe a 3 inch talalay soft for top
white americans love to support and promote the amazon slavery company
that was good
Great job! I think I am going to do the same. Did you get two 3 inch toppers from them to make a mattress? I just bought two toppers. The company said it would be fine. They seem great to work with so far.
Thank you very much for your effort on this.
Can you make me a hexagon bed
Thank you Sir for taking the time and effort to share this process.
Wow this is a great idea!!!
Where exactly is this thing on the canal?
