Latex mattresses

First off here are some quick top  level benefits of latex as a form of mattress material:

Very durable
Anti microbial with hypo allergenic qualities
Moulds to your body form
Breathable
No need to turn

There are two types of latex; Talalay and Dunlop. These are differentiated by how the polymer is processed. I wont bore you with the details on how these two processes differ but the upshot is that Dunlop has slightly firmer bottom side whereas Talalay has a much more consistent density.

What you need to know as someone who will ultimately be sleeping on the stuff is how it has been handled after the processing and what state it is in when it ends up on your bed. Generally speaking the mattresses on the cheaper end will have fillers added and will subsequently be less comfortable.

As long as you shop around and find a decent quality mattress, this premium foam will offer superior comfort and durability. The only drawback is they are typically not cheap but if you are after a natural product that offers durability combined with comfort then get your wallet out!
