Hey Haley,

If you love a FIRM mattress then two mediums plus soft will be perfect, but since Dunlop latex never softens over time (not even a little) if you’re looking for something that’s medium firmness go for medium, soft, soft. Our bed is perfect for us but too firm for most people (we’re weird, what can we say?). Hope it helps!

BTW- I just LOVE your blog and the inspiration it provides! I often think what you guys when I am shopping for home items!
THANKS!

Hey Haley,

We did publish an update about a month into owning our mattress and we still feel exactly the same way. We love it. Wouldn’t change a thing. It’s actually one of our favorite purchases this year. Nothing has changed so it’s still the same supportive yet reasonably soft mattress that we got from the get go. We haven’t changed the order of the layers or anything like that, and nothing ever shifts around so it’s really low maintenance- just like a regular one-piece mattress.

Our only tip, which we mentioned in the follow up post, was that we suggest going with softer layers than you think you want because Dunlop rubber is naturally very firm, so even though we love a firm mattress, choosing two layers of medium and one layer of soft was the right mix for us. Definitely call to talk with a specialist before picking yours too, just to get that custom fit. Hope it helps!

Can you PLEASE give another specific update on what you love, would change, surprises you about your latex mattress purchase. Has the firmness changed at all…have you switched layer positioning.
Thanks very very much!
Haley

Thanks!

Hey Heather,

Just check if the tiles you have your eye on are labeled as “floor tile” or just “wall tile” (some tiles can’t stand up to foot traffic, but others can). If that info isn’t readily available definitely ask customer service along with inquiring about whether they’re mesh-backed (the site should also give you that info). They’d definitely look amazing with your fireplace so we’re hoping they’re perfect. Good luck!
