Latex mattresses are becoming more and more popular as people across the country become more aware of their own sleeping habits and have increasing desires to ‘go green,’ with products they bring into the home.  Latex mattresses are made from either all natural latex, or a synthetic blend of semi-natural materials.  The reason latex offers a green solution to your bedding options is because it is made from 100% natural materials, and contains no added chemical compounds.  Latex foam mattresses have varying densities and allow for shape contouring which make them ideal for both the regular mattress user, as well as anyone who needs to use an adjustable bed.

Foam latex mattresses have several layers of foam in them.  There is an outer layer which is designed for comfort against the skin and body.  This provides a more luxurious feel to the mattress.  Then there is an inner layer in most latex mattresses that provides firm support for the body, the larger the body the more the foam pushes back and provides support.  Be careful with this though because too many zones in the latex foam mattress will ultimately lead to a bed with too many chefs in the kitchen and you will lose comfort.  I prefer to have a bed with 1 or 2 layers of support rather than a bed that promises too many things and can’t deliver on any of them.

Latex Mattress Prices

Depending on the size of the latex beds and where you get them the price for a twin will be between $800 and $1200 while the price for a King and Cali-King bed will run between $1500 and $1900.  The best places to get these mattresses is determined by how “green” you really want the foam latex mattress to be.  If you really want a mattress that is 100% natural you can expect to pay more and need to search for a specialty store and NOT the box chain furniture stores.

Latex Mattress Reviews

The highest rated 100% natural latex foam mattress are the models produced by Habitat Furnishings.  They are made in-house and not shipped in from over seas.  This means they can deliver on the 100% natural guarantee.  They have a very easy to use website and they offer a no risk guarantee for your sleeping needs.  This can be critical as it often takes several days of using a mattress before you can determine how effective it is going to be in the long term.
