EverEden Latex Mattress on a platform bed

Hi Pete,
First, many thanks for sharing your advice and vast expertise here—it’s a rare and much appreciated service. I’m a 60 y/o female, 5’8”, 130 lbs, looking for something for a twin platform. I’m replacing a 5 y/o Sealy PP Adriatic Plush that is now causing some mild lower back & neck pain. Reading through your Q&A’s, I’ve narrowed down to either:
1) Simmons Lumberton or Flatbrook Luxury Firm + a 2” soft Talalay latex topper (read that this line helps w/spine alignment and I also like the low heights) or 2) One of your latex models, also nice low heights on these but have heard they’re quite heavy. Would someone my size have trouble managing? 
About the Pure LatexBLISS (Pamper, Nature, Nutrition): What is Active Fusion gel? Is it a natural substance and does it affect wear-ability of the layers that contain it? The EverEdens don’t seem to have it. Re the EverEden: 6” w/2” glued or unglued topper. Expect that leaving the topper unglued would make sense since it could easily be replaced if/when needed, but would this make a difference as to how this combo feels and would it slide around/make the bed look messy? 
I’m a side sleeper and have usually done well with medium feel mattresses but have read that as we age we might need something a bit softer to address pressure points that need more comfortable support. Seems that any of the above would provide this but would appreciate your advice as to what you think might do the best job given my circumstances.
Thanks very much,  Andrea 

Hi Andrea,
We have the 8" EverEden plush top, unglued, on a platform bed at home. Our guests love the way it sleeps. I do too, as this is my escape to mattress when necessary.
The "unglued" option is to keep the mattress 100% chemical free. The top layer does not shift. They are layers of 100% natural rubber and they grip each other very well.
The queen was a bit heavy, but managable. The twin will be considerably lighter in weight.
At your size, you can't go wrong with either choice. The Beautyrest mattress and topper is less expensive, provides good support and comfort.
But, if you have the means, there's nothing else like the feel of an all latex mattress. The longevity of the all latex will make it the latex mattress you'll ever buy.
In the long run, it ends up being your most economical choice.









Thanks, Pete
