Hello Peter,
Some years ago,I purchased a Stearns as well as Foster Harbor View Villa mattress. It was sold to me equally a 100% natural latex mattress alongside a dunlop core as well as talalay pillow top.
Now that the mattress is developing torso impressions, I noticed that the tag said it is 84% latex, 14% polyurethane, as well as 2% diverse fabrics.
I've called S&F twice, as well as sent i electronic mail to them, but I conduct maintain non been able to speak alongside someone who has technical knowledge, nor has my email been returned.
Assuming the label is correct, where is the polyurethane inwards the mattress, as well as why is it at that spot instead of latex?
What are the advantages or disadvantages of polyurethane inwards this particular application?
Thank you lot for sharing your knowledge. Your replies are extremely helpful.
Thanks again, Eric
Hi Eric,
This is what happens when you lot store at stores.
Your mistake, equally a consumer, was to assume the salesperson knows his concern as well as you lot assume that you lot volition larn what he/she tells you lot you're getting.
In many stores, particularly inwards the large chain stores, zilch could hold out farther from the truth.
Today's salespeople are hired for their affability, taught rattling little, as well as left to fly it equally they go....just making things upwards when they don't know the answer.
After all, they postulate to 'sound' similar they know what they're talking about.
The mattress you lot bought has no Dunlop or Talalay latex. The latex that is within that model is 100% synthetic, using the Sapsa process, which was developed inwards England.
There is a layer of poly foam merely inwards a higher house the synthetic latex core, some other layer nether the pillowtop, as well as 2 layers inwards the pillowtop.
The payoff of the poly foam is that it's cheap....not an payoff to you, merely to the manufacturer.
The poly foam volition too promote premature wear...another payoff for the manufacturer.
The manufactory provides the retailers accurate information almost what is within their mattresses.
That information doesn't ever brand it's agency to the sales people....nor, to the consumer.
Your salesman mis-represented his product....probably non on purpose...likely out of ignorance...and I'm difficult press to hit upwards one's heed which is worse.
Your beef is non alongside the manufacturer, it's alongside your retailer.
I'm afraid that at that spot is zilch you lot tin do, at this point. That mattress has been discontinued.
And, alongside this industry's high orbit rate, you lot aren't probable to notice that same salesman.
Here are a listing of the specifications for that mattress. You tin run into the layers of Poly Foam listed.
'Smart Latex' is the factory's euphemism for synthetic latex.
