Would this be fine for an all latex mattress? I don't want the support wires to "cut into" or make impressions into the latex mattress.

I've owned this platform for about 4 months and can detect no impressions. Definitely no cuts. Over time logic tells me that some impressions will appear. The extent of these impressions may depend upon age, thickness, density and manufacturer. Mine is a 10 inch, 10 yr plus Temperpedic.

Not sure. I actually happen to have a latex allergy, but only get blisters or a rash when latex is touching my skin. This mattress has a cover and out of the 5ish times I slept on it I had no issues.

I think if you had a solid base, like a flora or a piece of plywood, it would probably work well for you, but if you had it on slats or weak box springs, I would worry that you could feel the bumps through the mattress.

to me it isn't all that soft. I come in at 170, so that's close. It is softer than just having my foam mattress, on a platform base. I got this mainly for the temperature qualities because on the foam I wake up in the middle of the night sweating bullets and have to get changed. Now I don't because latex doesn't hold the heat. Latex is a little springy so it took me a couple of days to get used to that but overall I am very happy with it. Maybe the 4 in. would be a little softer but it would be more springy. I bought a fit bit one and I check my sleep every day and I get nights where I am like a stone for 5 hours, just out and dead asleep, which I hadn't had for years. So it is more comfortable than no topper and much cooler than the foam. After 3 or more months I would say I am very happy with this. I no longer search for the perfect mattress, topper or sheets, which I had been searching for, for YEARS! I hope this helps.

Sure, but be careful. If you aren't precise and go slowly, you'll wind up with jagged edges. That won't impact the performance of the mattress, of course.

Yes. I have a memory foam mattress. I would reccomend screwing the support boards into place.

It is strongly advised not to put sharp creases or folds in the pad. the heating elements feels like wires going vertically up and down inside the pad. The pad comes with safety pins you use to pin the pad flat on the mattress by the edges. if you have to tuck the excess padding under the mattress this should be okay as long as there aren't any sharp folds

Should be fine. I used it on a steel bed frame with 2 inch grids directly under the mattress. The mattress is not thick but I can not feel the grids even when I try to press hard on it. This is much better than I thought and I am very impressed.

I use it for padding the sharper edges on the wheelchairs and counters. It's pretty thick for skin use, and not sure about latex issue.

I'm not sure about the latex, but I LOVE THIS GRIP. I actually minimized the recoil factor. And that was an unexpected benefit that sold me on this grip. I'm not sure if you looked at my order history, but I tried several and this one had the greatest amount of comfort and ease. It took maybe five minutes to install. It was a snap! I had a Crimson Trace grip in my revolver at first, and though the trace is a benefit, the physical comfort and recoil factor out weighed the trace. I am very happy with it and I hope you give it a try. I hope this information helps you with your purchase ideas.

Not 100% Dunlap Rubber latex.......just set it up today....seemed smaller/thinner then we thought.....haven't slept on it yet????? Time/Days will tell....we have a 100% rubber latex that is from 1995 and the blend was not available....but to this day everyone who sleeps on it says it is the greatest mattress ever...(in our guest room).....

If the latex is falling off it will take the Performix with it. Probably would be best to remove as much as you can.

Yes I used it over a latex foam pad until an electric surge destroyed the control. I was never able to replace the control - customer service at Biddeford is non-existent. Google it and you'll see all the complaints. I gave up and switched over to Sunbeam.

We put it on a motion bed for mom and it is doing fine (5 months). We have had a latex mattress on our platform bed for 16 years with no problem. You could put it on a box spring if you are not sure. It is a great mattress!

I have it on extra long pillow top mattresses, works like a charm. I also ordered a foam "filler" that goes between the two mattresses, it helps fill the gap so you don't feel it as much.

In Abbotsford BC Canada we have a shop called the foam shop I ordered a three inch mattress cover from them.We can not smell the latex at all.

I'm using this mattress with a hand-me-down evenflo p&p. So far I have it in the bassenet part and it serves it purpose. I do think it is a little on the soft side, but some of this is due to poor underneath support. I think there will be an improvement when i move it below. No gaps around the edges is a plus. I'm not sure how it would fit other brands. I measured to assure an extra tight fit and recommend others to do the same.
