What makes a latex mattress topper the healthiest option?
Is the latex topper compatible with adjustable bases and will using it affect my mattress warranty?
Are latex toppers better than memory foam?
I am looking to get a new topper for my mattress and I am absolutely hating this process. I have tried down feather bed (3" sealy) and its so comfortable but it goes flat after a couple days and its just not realistic to think I will strip my bed and fluff it every few days. once its flat I get pressure point pains, my arm goes numb even sometimes. I am mostly a back and side sleeper BTW.
Next I bought a gel memory foam (2" gel memory foam) one that had a ton of really good reviews on amazon despite me knowing already that I hate memory foam. Had a mattress years ago and it was the worst because it threw my body all out of alignment the way it swallows and engulfs you when you lay on it. so no surprise--have the memory foam topper a week trial and was in pain and walking with right hip pain and a limp for close to a week following.
ugg...so I have been looking at latex toppers. I've read tons of reviews here and elsewhere about latex toppers. sleep on latex, naturally nestled, avocado etc. but I'm trying to find if someone can tell me what it really feels like--like how does it compare to memory foam? does it cradle and swallow you like memory foam does? I ask because the latex toppers look just like memory foam toppers appearance-wise and it's making me a bit nervous at the idea of dropping $250-300 (queen size 2-3" toppers) only to be in the same boat.
