what exactly is the high density base foam? Is it like tempurpedic? It's not latex, right? Can you make a comparison so I understand the type of foam

I think it is latex. It's just a firm base so you don't sink down to the box springs (or whatever base you have). I got the medium so it's soft on top, but still offers support. My other bed is a temperpedic and this mattress is just as comfortable, maybe a little more comfortable.

Hi I personally don't know difference. I had a queen latex for 10 years and loved it- I needed a king bed and should have bought this from the start- after sleeping on it now for 2-3 months I am still very happy with my choice.

Sorry, I think so (not latex but foam like Tempurpedic) but I don't know for sure. Try the Ask Chuck service associated with the product. There's information to contact Chuck next to the product description on the Amazon website.

Hello, the sales material for the mattress explains quite well the type of foam. Definitely is not like the tempurpedic. I truly feel this is a much superior mattress than the tempurpedic.

The mattress I have is classified as latex-over-foam. There is a website called sleeplikethedead.com that has ratings and explanations based on actual user experiences. They have a specific page that talks about the Ultimate Dreams mattresses. Here is a link: http://www.sleeplikethedead.com/mattress-reviews-dreamfoam.html Hope that helps answer your questions.

Hmm. dense, not flimsy. However it was too soft on top of my latex mattress (for me anyway) Ended up putting it on another bed with regular mattress.

Have no idea. You need to ask that question directly to someone from Serta. Keep in mind all the "Memory foam" mattress are what I classify as "solid state". They are one giant chunk of foam. This is what we put into our attics and walls for insulation. So when you lay on a solid slab of foam (even if its various layers and the final layer is so-called 'cool gel'" all your body heat gets absorbed, then bounced back at you. I found it excessively hot. And while there were $4K and $5K memory foam mattresses by tempurpedic that were "extra cool" this is a waste of money as you are paying for a flawed design. Stick with the individually coiled springs. Almost all modern mattresses have memory foam or "cool gel" in the final layer anyway - but at least with coil springs, there's critical air circulation within the mattress and that's the best guard against heat build up.

It is not latex. I have an allergy to latex and have had no problems with it at all.

The foam is dense. I put it under a mattress cover to protect it from liquids and myself from the used mattress. I sleep comfortable with it. It is much better than the egg carton type.

There seems to be a top layer of latex, resting on a bottom layer of memory foam. I have only slept on it a few times, and I have a nice memory foam topper on top of it for now because I'm pregnant and sleep on my side and there's nowhere else to store the topper. However, before I put the topper on it I tried it out while awake. The feel is firm, but not hard. You don't sink in like you would with a memory foam mattress. However, you also don't get the feeling of something pushing back into you and digging in, like you might with an inner coil mattress. Some dense foam mattresses have felt "hard" to me. This one just feels firm and supportive-- not plush. It is almost like what you would expect an air mattress to be if the air mattress were impossibly perfectly super-full and taut-- but it has a little more give or "sink" than that. Also, I am told that in several weeks it will soften just a bit, then stay that way, and it will feel less firm than synthetic latex (it is natural latex). As a final note, I have noticed that people really vary in their perception of what is "firm" versus "soft." I would call this definitely firm, but far from extreme.

I love latex pillows. I feel like I'm sleeping on a cloud. That being said, I have the high loft plush pillow and I think it's pretty high, and maybe alittle firm. I wish I had gone with the low loft. I think it will soften up some as time goes on as is the case with my last latex pillow. I am still using that one and really dont sleep much on this high loft pillow...I will eventually tho! When the old one wears out =-)

No, it's the typical foam tempurpedic feel. I think it would be ok if you are not using it daily but we are using it as a topper for our tempurpedic that is too hard & it's not helping

We carry many different latex mattress models. We carry models that have latex only, with no other foam types, and we have hybrid mattresses, which consists of latex and poly foam mixed. The Roma mattress consists of a 6" core of latex, encased in a cover padded with poly-foam for contouring cushion. Poly foam offers a different type of feel than latex, which some customers prefer. If you are wanting an all-latex mattress, with no other types of foams, we offer the Naturale on Amazon. This mattress consists of 7" of Dunlop latex, encased in a cotton and wool cover. There is no poly-foam in the mattress.

True. 100% natural latex does not retain body heat like traditional memory foam. Also, Plushbeds 100% natural talalay latex toppers are healthy by design. Air is infused into the latex compound to create latex foam's open cell structure that provides a cooler sleep surface.

That info is not included in any of the info that came with it, sorry. The MOST DENSE one I found in my pre-purchase shopping was for sale at Macy's, and the incorporated cover is a blue weave, like the one section in the photo of THIS product. It was available in either 1.5 or 3 inch versions, the thicker one was offered for close to $600, and on a "one day sale" you could get it for 50% off, but even THAT was more than I wanted to spend, and too close to the price of a new mattress for me! But if you want the DENSE-EST gel, check that one out...it may even be on Macy's website, not sure. Good Luck!

To the seller:What do you have to say about this comment left in the reviews of this mattress?The company told me that it contains SOY FOAM. This is information I found on soy foam. It is best to ask questions to make sure of what you are getting. It does sound comfortable which is great, BUT if you are looking for pure latex mattress, DON'T BE FOOLED, THIS MATTRESS IS NOT MADE OF 100 PERCENT PURE LATEX.

I'm not sure, but I don't think so. There is "isopor" in portuguese, Google translated as "Styrofoam". It's a kind of a foam, probably without latex.

I do not have memory foam in mine. I'm not an expert, but memory foam conforms more to your body and you see an impression for a couple of seconds. The high density foam doesn't act the same way.
