The latex mattress is soon to be the newest sleep system "craze" in North America, and it's very popular right now in Europe. All the big names such as Sealy, Serta, Royal Pedic and Simmons all have come out with their own line of latex mattresses. Basically, the latex mattress is a mattress made from the sap of an actual rubber tree. There are two methods used to make them, thus producing the Dunlop latex mattress and the Talalay latex mattress. The Dunlop method whips the rubber in its liquid form and incorporates air into the mixture, and then it is put into a mold. The Talalay method also whips the rubber into a mold, but in addition, it will use core pins to cure the rubber, along with a vacuum system, thus producing a superior quality foam mattress with a more consistent cell structure. Of course, the more expensive of the two will be the Talalay latex, although both offer superior comfort and durability.

If you're asking yourself why you would spend that kind of money on a mattress, there are many benifits. Whether it be a Dunlop latex or a Talalay latex, either way, a latex mattress outlasts conventional spring mattresses, and can last up to thirty years, and usually have warranties ranging in and around the twenty year mark, which is quite impressive. Other than that,, they possess great anti microbial properties, are virtually dustmite resistant and ventilation properties, which can do wonders for you if you suffer from asthma or any type of allergies. Organic latex mattresses are also available to even better these advantages. Convenience also plays an important part, and a latex mattress has no need to be flipped, ever.

With a latex mattress, you have the opportunity to experience a superior level of comfort that just cannot be reached with a conventianal inner spring mattress. A latex mattress comes in a variety of foam densities, generally the higher the density of the foam, the higher the quality. The latex foam mattress has the ability to conform to your bodies' many curves, allowing the weight of your body to be evenly distributed, thus eliminating the existance of pressure points while you sleep soundly. Yes, they are more expensive, but one third of the average persons' life is spent sleeping, so it may be worth the extra expense for those who appreciate a quality nights sleep. After all, the bonus of a good sleep just might be that you will wake up feeling completely refreshed and ready to take on the day. In the end, whether a Dunlop latex or a Talalay Latex type, a latex mattress is at the very least, well worth considering.
