If you have decided on purchasing a natural latex hybrid mattress, you probably already know all the features that make the best pocket coil hybrid mattress. But, where to buy the ultimate one you ask? Try Mattress Makers, and here’s why.
If you’re looking for the best pocket coil mattress, there really is no alternative to a quality latex hybrid mattress. Here are just some of the reasons why going hybrid is the way to go.
There are many reasons why you should consider looking for a quality double sided mattress for sale, and here are just some of them.
Mattress manufacturers often say that a non-flippable mattress can last just as long as a double sided mattress for sale.
While it is correct that the mattress manufacturing process has come a long way, the life span of double sided mattresses is still as much as two times longer than that of single sided ones.
Possessing the ability to flip your mattress on a regular basis diminishes the possibility of body impressions forming on the mattress.
Also, as most double sided mattresses are made using a coil system which creates the center of the mattress, the entire construction is sturdier, making for a more resilient sleeping surface.
Single sided mattresses are usually a bit less expensive. But, the initial price of the product is not the only thing to consider when searching for a perfect double sided mattress for sale.
Yes, you might pay a bit more in the beginning, but just think how much money you are going to save by not having to replace your mattress as quickly as you would a single sided one.
Also, not all double sided mattresses are as expensive as people may think. Some are just a fraction more than their one sided counterparts, with no difference in quality.
This is one of the most frequently disputed facts about double sided mattresses. People either claim that the single sided mattress is superior in terms of comfort, or that there is no difference at all.
However, double sided mattresses offer greater usable sleeping surface. This comes from the way they are built. Because they need to have two sides, the surfaces are thicker and wider.
Also, greater sleeping comfort is connected to the sole fact that it has two sides. If one side begins to develop body impressions, simply flip it for a good-as-new sleeping environment.
Taking into consideration the greater life span of double sided mattresses, it becomes clear that they are, in fact, rather green.
Yes, manufacturing double sided mattresses also uses natural resources. However, as they last longer, it means that those ever precious resources are not used as often. And, by correlation, fewer resources are used in the production.
Most modern flippable mattresses have different firmness levels, meaning that each of the sides is different.
This makes a double sided mattress for sale extremely versatile, as you can choose the firmness that suits you best.
What’s more, buyers say that these mattresses are perfect for guest rooms. Different people are used to different mattresses, and with a double sided one, you can create a perfect guest environment for anybody.
Mattress Makers offers a selection of different double sided mattress types, and we are certain you will be able to find the perfect one for your needs. Visit us in the store, and let our pleasant and professional staff help you out!
Do you suffer from sleeping hot? Did you know that there are many factors in determining the heat retention of your mattress? That is what I investigated in order to condense the information for you here today! In my research, 3 themes were consistent, join me as I explain how mattress firmness, the weight of the sleeper and the mattress type have an influence on how hot one sleeps. Welcome to the one stop shop for Heat Retention.
Mattress Firmness and Heat Retention
First up is how mattress firmness affects the heat retention. The level of firmness your mattress is directly correlates to how temperature sensitive it will be. Meaning a firmer mattress will sleep cooler. The reason a firmer mattress will sleep cooler is because the temperature of the bed is linked to the airflow capability of the mattress. A firmer mattress is less forgiving to the persons curves. A plush or soft mattress will significantly fold or bend to meet the persons curves. When this happens, the airflow around the person is restricted. When the airflow is restricted the mattress will have a higher degree of heat retention.
Sleeper Weight
Next, we see how the weight of the sleeper is correlated, too. People that are on the heavier side of the spectrum have a tendency to sleep hotter. It has to do with the principle of airflow we looked at earlier. A heavier person is going to sink more into a mattress than a lighter person will. That action of sinking will restrict the airflow thus making the mattress retain heat creating the perfect conditions for a hotter bed. Also, when a heavier person tosses and turns around at night, they require more energy to move than a lighter person does. As we know remember junior high, energy is heat and that heat is transferred to your mattress.
Mattress type: open cell vs closed cell
Lastly the type of material that a mattress is made of is a substantial indicator of how hot the mattress is going to sleep. Traditionally, some mattresses sleep hotter than others. That is dependent on how the material is structured; if it is open or closed cell. Let’s look at the difference between open and closed cell structures.
Open cell vs closed cell
When it comes to open cell vs closed cell materials, the biggest difference comes from how the cells are composed. In open cell materials the cell walls have been broken allowing air to fill up the material, thus conducting airflow through the material that allows the sleeper to sleep cool. Closed cell materials are best used as insulators, as the unbroken cell walls become highly effective in not letting substances pass through it. Meaning the sleeper will sleep hotter.
Summary
All in all, heat retention is caused by a mixture of these three factors: 1. Mattress firmness 2. Sleeper weight 3. Mattress type: Open cell vs closed cell. In learning about these aspects, you’ll be more prepared for your next purchase of a new mattress, or have more insight on your current mattress.

You’ve just bought a new latex hybrid mattress, but it just doesn’t seem to work with your bedroom. Well, if you want to freshen things up a bit, and you’re thinking of going minimalist, here’s some advice to get you started.
First thing you should do is remove any unnecessary furniture. Clutter doesn’t go well with minimalism. Keep only the things you need, the ones you think will work with the new design. And sleep is always better with fewer things distracting you, so approach this first step thoroughly.
Never go crazy with colors if you want to achieve minimalist nirvana. As with furniture, less is more. You can start off with painting the walls white or light beige, gray even. This will allow the rest of your space to pop. Adopt the same principle with latex hybrid mattress covers and linen. Keep them light and simple, which will add a welcome airiness to your sleeping space.
Minimalism equals thoughtfulness. Instead of going on a bedroom shopping spree, think before you buy. Carefully choose hand-crafted goods that will infuse your space with a touch of that rustic feel. Also, by opting for one-of-a-kind pieces, your bedroom becomes unique, and there is enough room for those really special additions to shine. Although it is a bit more expensive, it is certainly worth it.
Don’t overdo it though. This is the part of the decorating process where you can allow yourself a bit more imagination, but you shouldn’t go over the top. Minimalism is in the smallest of details, and if you’ve done everything up to here properly, even the slightest of patterns will make the world of difference. The best way to do so is to buy interesting pillows to go with your latex hybrid mattress. Just mind the colors.
This is the correct way to add some color to your minimalist bedroom. You can add some lavender in a translucent bowl, or a bouquet of daffodils if you want some brighter shades. Salvaged branches from a hike can also be an interesting addition, as they’ll make the entire room feel a tad bit more rustic. You do not have to go for the more expensive plants, as the trick is in the arrangement, not the price.
This is the finishing touch. Natural lighting is essential when creating a minimalist bedroom. Can you just imagine those big, top-to-bottom windows, bathing the entire room in light? You could also add a large chandelier in the center of the room, making for a great show-stopper. And if you need lamps, opt for a metal lamp, to keep with the color scheme. And never skimp on the bulbs. Vintage Edison bulbs are just the thing you need to finish the experience off.
The bedroom design may affect the quality of sleep – and a mattress definitely does. Mattress Makers offers the best selection for latex hybrid mattress, which fit perfectly in any space. Browse our stock and find the one for you.
Let’s go through the most important aspects when shopping for a mattress, and see if a memory foam or a latex hybrid mattress is the best choice for you.
Adjustable bases for beds are not just for hospitals. If you incorporate a bed with such a base into your sleeping routine, and couple it with a perfect mattress, you will experience improvements with various health issues.
Studies show that approximately 60% of the population consider themselves side sleepers. Being a side sleeper myself, I’d like to share some quick tips on how to find the best mattress for your side sleeping position.
First, it’s worth noting the biggest mistake side sleepers make when shopping for a new mattress is choosing a mattress that is too firm. The reason for this is because we’ve been told for most of our lives that a firmer mattress is better for our back. This misconception leads us to fear soft mattresses.
To avoid that big mistake, I have created three things everyone needs to test for when trying out mattresses, especially for us side sleepers. The three things you want to test for are:
Yes, I know this is a no-brainer, but it still needs to be discussed. Now, of course, comfort is subjective and what may be comfortable for me as a side sleeper may not be comfortable for you as a side sleeper.
When trying out a mattress in the store we typically spend the least amount of time testing the comfort level because most people can tell pretty quickly if the mattress is comfortable or not. Typically, this can take anywhere from 1-5 minutes.
If it feels too firm or too soft for your liking when you lie down, then get up and don’t waste your time trying it any longer. However, make sure you at least lie down, because although it may feel really soft or firm when you sit on the edge, each mattress is designed differently and made to support your whole body as opposed to a concentrated area.
What you are looking for is a mattress that gives you that, “ahhh”, feeling. you may notice a little smile start to form on your face if you have found the right comfort level.
Pressure relief is the most important for side sleepers. As a side sleeper, we disburse our weight disproportionately since our hips and our shoulders are our widest and heaviest sections in our body while sleeping.
Typically, if a side sleeper has a mattress that is too firm, they may experience hip pain or shoulder pain. The mattress is pushing against their hips and shoulders rather than cradling it to help alleviate that pressure.
The pressure relief test phase takes approximately 5-10 minutes. What you are looking for is to see if you are feeling pressure in any one spot, particularly in your hips or shoulders.
The goal when testing this out is to make sure the mattress is providing your spine with the proper support. If you are currently waking up with back pain, it may be a sign your mattress isn’t providing you with the proper support it needs. If it’s too firm, your body doesn’t have the ability to sink in enough to relieve the pressure points as well as properly align the spine.
Likewise, if it’s too soft, your hips may be dropping too much into the mattress and putting stress on your lower back. This phase takes anywhere from 10-15 minutes to test if you are getting the proper support. Typically for side sleepers, if it’s too soft you’ll start to notice pain or discomfort in your lower back.
In order to save yourself some time while shopping for a mattress, the first test for your comfort level will eliminate a good portion of the mattresses in the store. Once you have found 2-3 different mattress models you feel are comfortable then take the 10-15 minutes on each one to test for both pressure relief and proper support.
If you focus on these three things when testing out mattresses in a store you’ll drastically improve your chances of finding the right mattress for you. Most importantly, be sure to test the mattress ON YOUR SIDE. Most people in mattress stores test mattresses on their backs even when they’re not back sleepers.

Has it been a long time since you’ve had a good-night’s sleep? Perhaps you are longing for that soothing embrace of your bed all day long, but come bedtime, something’s amiss, and that might just be your mattress. Over the years, it’s become home to minuscule critters that you do not want anywhere near you and most likely lost its original form. Not only does this cause discomfort and lack of rest, but also directly leads to numerous health issues.
Although popular mattress choices include spring coil mattresses and memory foam mattresses, what would definitely eliminate all these problems is a natural response mattress. With its modern innovations and all-natural materials, natural latex is your best bet for optimum rest.
But if you think that there is hope for your old mattress after all and a simple makeover is all it needs, then maybe you’re considering purchasing a topper as an addition that would make it more comfortable. For your convenience, we’ve compared the two options to help you make a sage decision.
So now you’re thinking how much money you’ve stashed under your mattress and if you can actually afford a new one. If you think purchasing a brand new mattress would put too much strain on your budget, maybe you could consider settling for a topper, at least for the time being.
But, if you think you owe it to yourself to invest in a new one, then by all means go for a natural response mattress. Although more expensive, they’re well-worth it, and despite the fact that toppers come at a lower cost, they are, after all, just a temporary fix which won’t eliminate the core problems.
In this respect, the topper is definitely a losing battle. As mentioned before, it will make your old mattress somewhat more comfortable, but it cannot work wonders. After a while, your back will go back to suffering from lack of proper support. What’s more, although the latest toppers have seen more luxurious improvements, being made of hypoallergenic and natural materials, these come at a heftier price.
The natural response latex mattress, however, provide excellent support for you back, allowing you thorough rest. This applies to hot sleepers as well, since its combination of natural materials efficiently regulates temperature.
Another amazing innovation of the natural hybrid mattress is the individually wrapped coil feature. These coils reduce motion transfer, so you can continue enjoying your sweet slumber even if your partner needs to get out of bed in the middle of the night. This mattress is available in three varieties – soft, medium and firm, depending on your personal preferences.
Not only are natural response latex mattresses all-natural and eco-friendly, you can also rest easy and forget, (literally),about allergies.
Depending on its quality, investing in a mattress topper could delay your investment in a new mattress for a few years. But if you want to know you’re spending your money wisely and investing in your health and comfort, a natural response mattress is the way to go. With its 20 years of warranty, you’re likely to enjoy decades of comfort before the thought of replacing it crosses your mind.
At Mattress Makers, we have over a decade of experience in providing a varied selection of the highest-quality natural response and latex hybrid mattresses. The mattresses in our diverse selection are organic, chemical-free and are sure to provide plenty of restorative sleep in years to come.
