Re: Talk to me about mattresses?
Latex!!! I love latex! No nasty flame retardant chemicals or off-gassing. I have one from Pure Rest, Little Lamb Organics (they only used to make up to a full size) and most recently we bought another layer from sleeponlatex.com to add to our mattress (upgrading from 6" of latex to 9"). There seem to be more and more companies doing natural mattresses, bringing down prices.
We also have a local store that makes their own all-natural latex mattresses at really good prices, but unless you are near Seattle their online prices are way higher than in-store. Might be worth seeing if you have a store local to you. Internet prices tend to include shipping so local pick-up can be significantly cheaper.

Re: Talk to me about mattresses?
Just make sure no one is allergic to latex before buying a whole mattress of it!

Re: Talk to me about mattresses?
True, though many who are latex allergic don't react to a natural mattress (I am one of them), especially when it's encased and made up with sheets. Most pre-made mattresses are in a cotton cover, usually with wool somewhere inside as the flame retardant.
