Consumers Be Aware - Most "Latex Mattresses" Sold On the Market Today Use Synthetic Latex Made From Petrochemical Products, Instead of Real Latex! Why Settle For Less Than the Real Thing?

The Incredibly Comfortable Softness Found Only In A 100% All Natural Latex Mattress. Up To 80% Of Latex Used In "Latex" Bed Manufacturing Is Primarily Made Of Synthetic Latex and Little, If Any, Natural Latex!

all our latex is  100% natural latex It's a little known fact that about 80% of latex used in the manufacture of so-called "latex beds" is made of "latex" that is a blend of synthetic latex and natural latex - with synthetic latex often making up 75% to 80% of this "latex" blend. Unlike natural latex, synthetic latex is made from petroleum products ... and since synthetic latex is stiffer, coarse in texture, not as soft and inviting, and does not have the antibacterial, antifungal, and hypoallergenic qualities that Natural Latex provides, many people have no idea that they are missing out on the tremendous qualities of this uniquely amazing and all natural material! Since Natural Latex is inherently more costly, most large scale bedding manufacturers don't even offer it..and substitute inferior synthetic latex without the customer ever noticing the difference, thinking that this is as good as it gets! Read more to learn about who we are, and what we offer..we think you'll find that our 100% Natural Latex Beds are the most comfortable beds you'll ever sleep on! You'll get an unbeatable price, a full 180 day trial period, a 20 Year Factory Warranty, Great Customer Service from a smaller company who uses the products we sell, our incredible Latex Pillows for FREE, a FREE Medical Grade Mattress Protector, and the best night's sleep of your life!

Where We Get Our Natural Latex and Why It Is A Green, Sustainable Product
Natural Latex is a unique gift from mother nature, harvested entirely by hand. It must be carefully gathered from Rubber trees one by one, grown on plantations which contain hundreds of thousands of trees.. Natural Latex is a renewable, natural material that offers unique properties unlike any other! ..but you have to know what you're getting when you buy a latex mattress.

Only 100% Natural Latex provides the comfort level found from this amazing natural resource. Natural latex is softer, more elastic, resists deterioration, and can last up to 30 years! Synthetic latex, being derived from petroleum products, has a much more limited lifespan..All "Latex" is not created equal, especially in the bedding industry. A natural latex mattress is handcrafted using specialized molds and processing techniques, and must be handled with great skill using highly sophisticated and sometimes proprietary methods to get just the right consistency, softness, flexibility, and density. The end result is an amazing sleep surface material unlike any other.

Where Can I Find Natural Latex?

The fact is, unless you ask for it by name, the odds are that you may be sold a "Latex Bed" which contains inferior synthetic latex, or it may even be constructed with only a small layer of latex on top (which may not even be natural), and then glued to a layer of cheaper, synthetic urethane foam beneath. This can cause settling and bucketing problems down the road. Natural latex does not settle or pack down, or "bucket", as do other kinds of foam beds, air beds, conventional coil mattresses, futons, or pillowtop mattresses. Due to its' high density, and its unique open cell structure, Natural Latex offers excellent pressure point reduction and weight distribution qualities. It retains its resiliency, responds instantly to body movements and tends to keep your body elevated off the surface of the mattress, instead of experiencing that "sinking"sensation as some folks complain after using some memory foam or lofty pillow top beds. A Natural Latex bed offers a truly "hovering" experience unlike any other sleep surface. Synthetic latex simply does not offer these characteristics.

Make sure when you compare brands and manufacturers and their prices for Latex mattresses, that you are truly getting a mattress made entirely of 100% Natural material and not a mattress made from a blend of synthetic and natural latex, or even worse, a 3 or 4 inch "topper pad" layer of latex which is laminated to a synthetic base layer of cheap "conventional" foam. Nothing compares to a 6" or 8" thick mattress made entirely of 100% Natural Latex. If you would like more detailed information about natural latex, read some of our FAQ's. Also, our videos, found by scrolling down on this page, will give you detailed and insightful information on both styles of our 100% Natural Latex mattresses which we have designed, the features and benefits that our mattresses offer, and helpful hints on choosing the model that is perfect for you.

With over 12 years of retail bedding industry experience, we have had many customers ask us about latex beds, and what we know about them. For several years, as one of the largest internet retailers of name brand mattress products, more and more of our customers began expressing an interest in Latex Beds, so we visited trade and industry shows and started talking with manufacturers who had experience with latex bedding products and quickly discovered the "little secret" about latex that the industry knew, but the consumer did not...that most Latex being offered out there was not the real thing. So, we went about the business of finding a really great line of NATURAL latex mattresses, and we weren't going to settle for less. We were already established in the mattress business, and built our reputation on a few basic principles: Offering what we believed was the best possible product, providing outstanding customer service, offering a great trial period so that skeptical customers who really wanted to try our product would feel comfortable doing so, knowing that if they didn't like it, they could easily return it, and back up those customers who loved the product with a solid warranty that provided clear and solid guarantees about the product. As a result, we are a member in good standing with BBB Online, we have the highest rating from Shopping.Com, which in the bedding business, is not easy to do..you really have to have your heart in it. We already had hundreds and hundreds of satisfied customers, and we had made really good industry contacts when it came to components and high quality ingredients.

When we were ready to develop our new Natural Latex Bed line, we consulted with one of our favorite resources, a small specialty bedding company outside of Boston, the founder of which was very particular about the materials he used, very seasoned about bedding materials in general, and like us, had started his business from the ground up, and we worked with him to select a line-up of Natural Latex beds.

We Created An Unbeatable LineUp Of All Natural Latex Beds

How We Put Together Our Latex Mattress Line-Up, And Which Mattress Might Work Best For You.


all natural quilted top

We are proud to tell you that our unique process and material is a proprietary fabric covering that is woven from organic cotton, wool vissle (a wool fiber) and and a highly specialized formulation of superheated sand, which forms a protective layer over the wool fiber. These naturally sourced materials create a fire resistant barrier, woven into the fabric of the cover, and eliminate the need for harsh chemicals or fire proofing additives used in other mattresses.

When we finally selected our Natural Latex Bed lineup, we didn't want to skimp on nice features, but we're not really a "bells and whistles" kind of company. There were certain "creature comforts" everyone enjoys, like a nice, soft cover, or a bit of a pillow top treatment. These are industry standards that people expect to have, to embellish what is inside, to accent it. Most importantly though, we felt we had to have an unbeatable deal... so, we tried to price our Natural Latex beds at prices even less than comparable models in the industry which offer synthetic latex! This way, there would be no reason why a serious latex "prospector" could walk away from at least strongly considering our beds as an option.

We knew our basic model would have to be positioned at a value conscious and competitive price point, while at the same time offering a generous amount of Natural Latex that would have all of the qualities you would expect from a 100% latex bed, including a resilient yet instantly responsive feel rather than that "sinking" feeling you get on a memory foam or overstuffed conventional mattress product. The Natural Latex had to be at least 6" thick, so that if you put your knee and all of your weight into the bed, it absolutely would not "bottom out". The exterior covering had to be removable, washable, and not poofy or too thick, since this bed was designed to feel a bit firmer, slightly more resilient, yet simplistic in design...and less expensive than comparable products, even less expensive than "latex" beds using synthetic materials. For an exterior covering on top of the latex, we knew we wanted something free of synthetic materials, formaldehyde adhesives, something totally natural. We found a wonderfully soft organic cotton cover that gives the mattress a finished feel, soft and inviting. The top and sides are 100% pure organic cotton, never treated with herbicides, insecticides, or other chemicals. The organic cotton cover is backed up with a wonderful layer of wool which offers fire retarding qualities as well as being extraordinarily comfortable. The cover has a zipper, allowing it to be removed and professionally dry cleaned. We wanted people to be "close up and personal" with the latex layer in this model and it was mission critical that the price was unbeatable for an all natural mattress using high quality, all botanical, Sri Lankan latex. To make our deal even sweeter, we wanted to include some freebies, including complimentary shipping, our 100% all Natural Latex pillow, and our incredible waterproof and hypoallergenic and washable mattress protector, which helps keep the mattress in pristine condition. Our 6" mattress is a great option if you are looking for a basic mattress offering a slightly firmer feel, with a leaner profile, priced right, with the highest quality pincore natural latex available anywhere.

Free Shipping-Free Latex Pillow And Free Medical Grade Mattress Protector Included In Every Mattress Purchase. 180 Day Trial. 20 Year Prorated Warranty.
Our second model had to offer a little bit more of something, well, unique, but it had to be the bed that would appeal to most people: not too soft, not too firm...it had to fit at the top center of the bell curve of comfort…offering outstanding support, weight distribution and pressure point reduction, without that "caved in" sensation found in thicker mattresses that add layer after layer of unnecessary materials that you pay for, yet don't offer any real benefit..so we stepped it up a bit, but still kept it fairly simple in design. This model had to have the same wonderful all 6" Natural Latex base layer for outstanding support, but with a little something extra up top to offer a slightly more luxurious feel, and we wanted the price to be only slightly more than our 6" model. Our solution: add another layer of buttery soft Natural Latex that is slightly less dense to provide a "cozier" feel. This extra layer is a 2" section which creates a mattress that is 8" in total thickness. Overall, the sensation I was trying to create was a good dose of luxury combined with all of the practical benefits of Natural Latex. We think we hit the mark dead on with this outstanding mattress. If you are accustomed to a slightly softer mattress, but still want good underlying support and no sinking feeling, our 8" model is a perfect choice. It is also our most popular model, by far . We wanted the cover to be simple in design to keep the cost down and the intimacy with the latex very close…so we use the same wonderful organic cotton exterior cover that is on our 6" model, with its velvety soft, luxurious feel.

Unique Packaging And Shipping Process Keeps Cost Down....

mattress compressed for shipping
Our mattresses are shipped via UPS. We use a vacuum package system. Note: Twin size shown. Queen,King,Cal King will be same diameter, but about twice as tall. When box is opened and bed is removed, bed expands to full, factory size in about 45 minutes.
One thing we were quite concerned about was the shipping process for our Natural Latex Beds. Being in the bedding industry, particularly on the freight side of things, can be a real eye opening experience. Forklifts in warehouse can damage beds, improper handling of mattresses cause tears and rips that can damage packages, and because of damage claims, it gets very expensive..and you know who ultimately pays for that. According to Bedroom Magazine, a bedding industry monthly, up to 20% of the retail costs for bedding products, especially mattresses, is for transportation and shipping alone. Our solution to keeping costs for our customers down was to use a unique vacuum packaging shipping solution, so that we could ship via UPS and avoid the scheduling and handling problems associated with "big freight". This technique of packaging insures that our product arrives in pristine condition. Our beds are rolled and placed into heavy plastic bags in a clean room environment; the air is then removed from the bags, reducing the volume of the container by about 2/3. The rolled bed is inserted into a shipping box, the box is securely sealed and strapped in the case of larger mattresses, and the bed is shipped via UPS. Upon receiving the bed, it is easily removed from the box. We recommend two people, one to pull the mattress out, another to hold the box, and to assist in mattress placement. After opening the bag (don't use a knife!) the bed returns to its original factory state within 45 minutes, without any harm whatsoever to the bed. This unique method of delivery insures that our product arrives in perfect condition every time. It takes 12-14 calendar days to receive your mattress from the date you place your order . Every mattress we produce is custom made to order, including the organic cotton cover, and this insures that nothing we ship has been collecting dust in a warehouse.

Cover has nice velour type feel..velvety. Good spring back when I put my knee into the bed.".

"Laboratory Notes" on this model, as noted by testers writing notes while they tested this mattress for the first time: "Higher profile, bed looks more like a respectable, nicely appointed mattress.. Resilient and very supportive, yet giving... but no sensation of "caving in" or being swallowed up by this mattress like my memory foam bed"... Absolutely effortless motions when changing positions...almost feels like a hovering sensation. when first lying down..Still moderately firm with great support, but a little cushier and slightly softer than 6" model...Heavier parts of my body seem to stay aligned with the rest of my body...my spine feels more "straight and level"...does not get hot..The organic cotton cover is inviting and wonderfully soft, but thin enough so you can take full advantage of being intimately close to the latex, especially when lying on side...more comfortable than a $4000 Stearns and Foster I shopped for recently. After 20 minutes, I was comfortably cool and floating". "Better buoyancy sensation than Select Comfort"…"absolutely no bottoming out sensation"... "more effective pressure point reduction than Tempur-Pedic". "No chemical smells whatsoever"...
