10 Reasons to Buy a Botanical Bliss Latex Mattress:
The Botanical Bliss™ 100% All Natural Latex Mattress.
When you upgrade to today's luxury mattress standards, you'll want a bed that's 100% natural, chemical free, luxuriously comfortable, and long-lasting. Our slideshow will explain why we give you the quality, luxury, and eco-friendly comfort that no other mattress company can.
You're about to see why after comparison shopping for a chemical free 100% natural mattress, more people choose our Botanical Bliss™ 100% natural latex mattress over any other brand. PlushBeds gives you what no other mattress can...an organically pure sleep surface and a clear conscience.
1. PlushBeds offers the softest, finest quality Organic Cotton online.
Aside from the latex used in the mattress, the mattress cover is the next most important, yet most overlooked component to compare. Several online mattress retailers boast the use of organic cotton; however fail to mention its the cheaper, mass-produced woven organic cotton. Woven fabrics are tight, course and do not stretch, hindering the pressure-relieving benefits of natural latex.
PlushBeds exclusive knitted mattress covers are softer, more breathable, more elastic, offer better moisture control, and provide better pressure relief than the mass produced woven covers used by our competitors.
2. Our covers are quilted, not glued.
Most latex mattresses are backed with a layer of natural wool (or a fire resistant barrier on thinner covers) to meet US flammability standards. Several competitors do not quilt their covers, and to hold everything together this bottom layer is typically glued or laminated to the cotton fabric, resulting in a rough, scratchy canvas-like feeling because your body is resting on a layer of glue before coming anywhere near the latex.
PlushBeds quilted organic cotton mattress covers contain absolutely no glue or adhesives resulting in a much softer cover optimized for pressure relief.
3. The Botanical Bliss latex mattress collection only contains 100% natural latex
While most "Latex Mattresses" sold today are promoted as "100% latex", but contain synthetic latex made from petrochemical products which have limited elasticity, Plushbeds is proud to offer 100% Natural Sri Lankan Botanical Latex with no synthetic blends or petroleum based products. With a more dense, supportive 100% natural dunlop core to prevent sagging and a less-dense top layer of 100% natural talalay latex for maximum pressure relief, you receive a mattress that offers optimized pressure relief and uncompromising support, resulting in deeper, restorative sleep.
The Botanical Bliss latex mattress offers the perfect combination of resilient support and pressure relief that can only be found with a solid 100% natural latex mattress.
4. PlushBeds has a Rock Solid Reputation
When you buy a natural latex mattress, you are making an investment in your sleep, your bodys revitalization, and your health. Like any investment, it's wise to look at the reputation of the company you are considering buying from. Are they an accredited business with the Better Business Bureau? How many complaints have been filed against them by other customers before you? This can be easily found by going to the Better Business Bureau and entering the name of the companies you've considered. A company's past track record is a good indication of what you might expect should problems arise after you've made your purchase.
PlushBeds has a rock solid reputation and hundreds of readable reviews from verified customers.
5. 4 different firmnesses available on every latex mattress.
PlushBeds is not just a mattress retailer, but also the manufacturer. This gives us a broad range of options in the comfort levels we can offer. Where most internet retailers are limited to a single firmness per mattress model, PlushBeds offers 4 different firmnesses for each latex mattress we sell. Additionally, because each mattress is custom made, we can accommodate virtually any request. Need a specific height or specific firmness (ILD) that you don't see online? Just give is a call, and we'll be glad to assist in building a custom-made latex mattress that is just right for you.
All PlushBeds latex mattresses are available in 4 different firmnesses and are custom made, offering you more options to choosing the perfect mattress.
6. 100 Night Comfort Exchange Program
Wherever you decide to buy your latex mattress from, we hope you choose the correct firmness the first time around, but what if it's too soft or too firm? Most online companies glue their layers together, in fact, as many as 4 cups of glue are used in a single "all natural" latex mattress. If the firmness is not what you had hoped, what are your options? Your only option is to re-package the mattress and ship it back. The PlushBeds comfort exchange program offers an affordable and convenient solution to adjusting your mattress firmness without the hassle of having to return the whole mattress.
For just a flat $45 shipping fee, we'll send you a new layer of natural latex in a different firmness, which 9 times out of 10 will solve a comfort issue without having to return your mattress.
7. Easy, $99 Flat-Fee Returns
If you decide that your Plushbeds latex mattress is not for you within 100 nights of receiving your mattress, just call us and we'll pick up the mattress for a full refund of your purchase price, minus a flat $99 return shipping fee. Many competitors tell you they will "take the mattress back" but you will be required to pay return shipping costs ($300 - $500), restocking fees, or "damage fees", to be determined by the company after they receive your mattress back.
Every Botanical Bliss latex mattress comes with a 100 night hassle-free $99 return policy. We'll pay the return shipping costs for a curbside pickup, and you'll receive a full refund minus only a flat $99 return fee.
8. Industry's Strongest 25 Year Warranty
Plushbeds guarantees that your latex mattress will be replaced or repaired at our option, should it be deemed defective because of faulty workmanship or structural defects for a period of 25 years beginning on the date of delivery, with 100% coverage for 10 full years, and pro-rated in years 11-25. The latex mattresses we deliver to our customers are the same latex mattresses we sleep on ourselves, which is why we are proud to offer the strongest 25 year manufacturer's warranty in the industry.
All Botanical Bliss latex mattresses are protected for 25 years from faulty workmanship or structural defects.
9. Our Latex Mattresses are Environmentally Friendly
The natural latex rubber our mattresses are made from is derived from the milky sap of the hevea brasiliensis tree, a renewable resource. The average fully-grown hevea brasiliensis tree produces liquid latex for 16 years. Hundreds of thousands of these trees are cultivated on plantations in Sri Lanka, removing thousands of metric tons of atmospheric carbon dioxide annually, and providing jobs for hundreds of indigenous people. The result is an eco-friendly and biodegradable natural latex mattress that is as socially responsible as it is comfortable.
By buying a natural latex mattress, you're making a conservation-conscious choice that is friendly to the environment.
10. It's the Latex Mattress Recommended by Professionals
Our 100% natural latex mattresses are often recommended by orthopedic specialists and chiropractors. The mix of pressure relieving softness and buoyant support offered by our hypo-allergenic natural construction makes botanical latex an ideal bedding material. Don't settle for a synthetic or hybrid option when choosing all-natural botanical latex can prove to be one of the best investments for your health and longevity.
Our 100% natural latex mattresses are often recommended by orthopedic specialists and chiropractors because of the unequaled support they provide.

Only mattresses bought directly from the manufacturer are truly "factory direct".Resellers buy them & sell them at a profit. Manufacturers are typically more knowledgeable about the materials used as you are dealing directly with the entity building the mattress.
In woven fabrics, the strands are tightly packed together and several criss-cross over one another, offering minimal elasticity or pressure relief (popular woven fabrics are denim, tweed and canvas). In knitted fabrics the strands of yarn are looped together as opposed to being straight, allowing them stretch in any direction offering much more "give" and elasticity over woven fabrics for much better pressure relief.
A mattress cover typically contains a top layer of fabric, and a fire resistant solution, either natural wool or a thinner, man-made substitute. More plush mattress covers are typically quilted together for optimal pressure relief, while thinner covers are simply glued (laminated) together. This process essentially adds a layer of glue between you and your natural latex, which increases surface resistance.
Mattresses with glued covers and glued layers are not chemical free. Some "chemical free" mattresses contain as many as 4 cups of glue within a single mattress.
Elasticity and a "soft hand" in a latex mattress cover is crucial because it allows the fabric a natural way to be stretchable without offering any surface resistance. This is important as reduction of pressure on the surface of the mattress reduces the constriction of blood flow to the neurological system, providing a deeper undisturbed sleep, thus optimizing regeneration and restoration that comes naturally from sleep itself.
Multiple firmness options are important when buying a mattress online you can't try first, as you have a much better chance of getting the right comfort feel vs. settling for a one size fits all solution. With more options, you're not limited to 1 particular model because of its firmness.
Hopefully you pick the right mattress the first time around. What happens if it's too soft or too firm? If all layers are glued together, you're only option is to package and return the whole mattress. With removable layers, you can easily adjust the mattress firmness by changing a layer of latex without having to return the whole mattress.
Buying a mattress online can offer a great savings opportunity, but also increases your risk of buying a mattress that doesn't meet your comfort expectations. With a free comfort exchange option (just $45 shipping), you significantly reduce your risk of buying sight unseen.
A good warranty will protect you against sagging or long term mattress defects. Some mattress ReSellers offer extended warranties which are not backed or supported by the mattress manufacturer. Remember a warranty is only as strong as the company issuing it. If buying from a ReSeller, be sure to ask for a copy of the Manufacturer's warranty as well prior to purchase (a manufacturer's warranty should contain the manufacturer's name and address for verification).
Shipping a mattress can be expensive, but is typically built into the price. In the event you need to return your mattress, some companies will pay all shipping costs and just charge a flat return fee; others claim to be free but may deduct a fee from your refund for usage or "damage" to the mattress after the fact to cover shipping costs. Be sure to know the amount of all possible fees upfront.
Customers typically only file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau after an issue is not resolved to their satisfaction, typically involving a financial nature. As a general rule, for every customer who files a complaint, there are 50 dissatisfied customers who kept their silence. While it's common for even reputable companies to receive an occasional complaint every now and then, a significant number may indicate that a company's product and/or service is not the same as described.
While bamboo the plant is wonderfully sustainable; bamboo the fabric isn't so easy to categorize. Chemically manufactured bamboo is a regenerated cellulose fiber also called BAMBOO RAYON because of the many similarities in the way it is chemically manufactured and similarities in its feel and hand.
Bamboo Rayon is chemically manufactured by "cooking" the bamboo leaves and woody shoots in strong chemical solvents such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH - also known as caustic soda or lye) and carbon disulfide in a process also known as hydrolysis alkalization combined with multi-phase bleaching. Both sodium hydroxide and carbon disulfide have been linked to serious health problems. Breathing low levels of carbon disulfide can cause tiredness, headache and nerve damage. Carbon disulfide has been shown to cause neural disorders in workers at rayon manufacturers. Low levels of exposure to sodium hydroxide can cause irritation of the skin and eyes. Sodium hydroxide is a strong alkaline base also known as caustic soda or lye. In its dry crystalline form, caustic soda is one of the major ingredients of Drano. This is basically the same process used to make rayon from wood or cotton waste byproducts.
This gives some feel for how chemically intensive the hydrolysis-alkalization and multiphase bleaching manufacturing processes are for bamboo rayon fabrics that some companies promote as being sustainable and eco-friendly.
Because of the potential health risks and damage to the environment surrounding the manufacturing facilities, PlushBeds refuses to distribute, endorse or promote any mattress covers made from Bamboo Rayon.
Due to its high cost, most mattress manufacturers do not use natural wool or very little natural wool in their mattress construction. When used in sufficient quantities, natural wool is better than any other textile used to make mattresses, providing several benefits which contribute to comfort and a great night's sleep, including:
Durability: Wool is extremely long lasting. It can bend thousands of times without losing form. Temperature Regulation: Wool can evaporate moisture in either a warming or cooling manner. This incredible property maintains warmth in the winter and coolness in the summer. Wool garments are used from the hottest of deserts to the coldest of climates. Hypoallergenic: Natural wool in a mattress is great for people with allergies. Natural lanolin on the outside of wool fibers makes wool durable and resistant to dust-mites, mildew and mold. Flame Resistant: Wool can naturally pass flame tests used in the bedding industry without the addition of chemical flame retardants. Comfort: Wool conforms to the shape of your body to provide you the support you need while you sleep. This means less tossing and turning and fewer aches and pains in the morning. Wool in bedding helps people sleep more soundly. Biodegradable: Unlike traditional mattresses which are made from plastics, metals, and harsh textiles, Wool is a natural material that is biodegradable, making it much safer to dispose of when required.
Over 90% of latex mattresses sold today are made with blended latex as the comfort layer. Blended latex is made from a foam blend of natural and synthetic latex before the molding process begins. In most cases, blended latex foam is made up of 70% synthetic latex and only 30% natural latex.
When you buy all-natural latex, you invest in the hidden costs of transportation, agricultural management, and equipment used in processing. Natural latex is also a truly superior material for ameliorating night time pressure-point related pain and unsatisfying sleep. The long lasting characteristics of natural latex make it superior to blended latex as a mattress comfort layer.
Where's the Latex? - There's no law that states how much latex must be in a mattress for it to be referred to as a latex mattress. Many of the latex mattresses sold in retail mattress stores and on the internet contain a thin layer of latex and other "mystery foams", which are cheaper to produce, and can break down quicker. Be on the lookout for "soy-based foam", "smart foam", or "special pressure-relieving material." While these might contribute to a nice mattress, they are typically not latex.
Hybrid latex mattresses (latex on the top layer with a foam core) can still be great mattresses, and are optimal for people on a budget who want to experience sleeping on latex; however, when shopping, just make sure you know what you're comparing.
Some companies glue their latex layers together. While they claim un-glued layers shift around, we have not found this not to be the case, as latex is very abrasive material & layers will naturally grab each other. A disadvantage of gluing layers together is that if for some reason your mattress is either a little too firm or a little too soft, your only option is to return the whole mattress, whereas if the layers weren't glued together, you might be able to conveniently exchange a layer of a different firmness with the manufacturer.
Hopefully you'll choose the right latex mattress the first time around, and will sleep happily ever after. But what if you don't? What are your return options? What are your return costs? Will the company tell you up front? How many days do you have to try the mattress (60 days is acceptable, 90 would be better)?
Does the company have a comfort exchange policy or is your only solution to send the mattress back? Will the company come and pick up the mattress or are you responsible for shipping it back to the company? Many companies tell you they will "take the mattress back" within a certain time period, but fail to mention that it's up to you to get it there. It typically costs $300-$475 to ship a used mattress one-way across the country.
Are you responsible for just the return shipping or the shipping costs both ways? Is there a cap on what those costs are? What does "like new condition" really mean, and is it possible to be in "like new condition" after sleeping on it for 30 nights? Read the fine print, as what seems too good to be true, usually is. There's an old adage, "What the bold print giveth, the fine print taketh away". While you should never expect a complete refund if you damaged a mattress you're returning, look for fine print that leaves the amount of your refund to the discretion of the company, as there have been many occasions where customers are charged hundreds of dollars because of ordinary use being claimed as mattress damage. Expect to pay something for returning a mattress. Anything that promises otherwise might be too good to be true.
Where most competitors don't offer any sheets, only PlushBeds offers GOTS certified organic cotton sheets with every latex mattress purchase.
Buying your latex mattress from an online retailer not located in your state provides the opportunity for customers to purchase their mattresses without paying sales tax normally collected at the time of purchase through local retail stores. Be sure to check with your tax advisor to see if disclosure of online purchases is required in your state.
A naturally resilient bedding material is long-lasting, returning to its original shape morning after morning and year after year without the use of chemicals or synthesized additives. When you roll over on a resilient mattress, the mattress responds to your movements instantaneously, preventing you from having a stuck in your mattress or swimming in quicksand sensation. Some innerspring mattresses are resilient, but few are naturally resilient.
Some mattress materialsbecome less supportive and retain body heat when exposed to a sleeping body for a prolonged period of time. These mattresses may initially feel comfortable when testing them for a few minutes on a showroom floor, however restrict airflow and become uncomfortably warm over the course of a night, leaving you with an overheated or clammy sensation. A mattress that sleeps cool encourages air flow, keeping you comfortably warm in cool temperatures and comfortably cool when it's hot.
Your mattress should offer you years of comfortable sleep. If you buy a mattress that you find uncomfortable, or if your comfort preferences change over time, your mattress firmness should be adjustable to comfortably accommodate your needs.
When you lie on an overly firm or unresponsive mattress, pressure points develop where your weight compresses the body's tissues against the mattress surface. These points can be painful and harmful to circulation and nerve function. A properly buoyant mattress supports your body while minimizing pressure point formation.
Mattresses are one of the most common locations for molds, dust mites, and other allergens to lurk undetected. Some mattress materials, especially chemicals or synthesized fillers, can act as allergens themselves. Allergy sufferers can find significant relief by switching to a mattress that is manufactured without allergens and that discourages allergen encroachment from the surrounding environment.
Dust mites are one of the most common and insidious allergens, with health implications ranging from minor sinus problems to major asthma concerns. A mattress that deters dust mites helps even those without allergies sleep in a safer, cleaner environment.
Bed bugs are one of the most difficult-to-eradicate household pests. Treatments include intensive cleaning, chemical pesticides, and hauling off infected mattresses and furniture. Bedbugs are a costly nuisance and health hazard, and the best offense is a good defense of buying a bed bug resistant mattress.
Mildews and molds can be highly toxic, causing medical problems ranging from allergies to death, according to OSHA. Mildew and mold, along with the chemical reactions they cause when coming into contact with mattress chemicals, have been implicated in Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and other illnesses. Mattresses with good air circulation, wicking action in the top layers, and all-natural construction will deter mold and mildew more effectively than inferior counterparts.
An allergy can be a minor inconvenience or a life-threatening condition. No one should be subject to sleeping on a surface that can actually make them more prone to allergic reactions. Beds that deter allergens and typically are free of harsh industrial chemicals can minimize nighttime allergies that interfere with sleep and overall health.
That strong, pungent new mattress odor is often caused by petrochemicals used in the construction of synthetic mattress layers. Off-gassing has been implicated in Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) deaths and may be a significant medical hazard for all ages. All mattresses may have some odor when first unwrapped; even all-natural latex has a distinctive smell when new, but it's a natural rubber scent that wears off quickly and contains no harmful chemical agents.
From the interior construction to the sleep surface, every mattress component has the potential to be filled with harsh industrial chemicals. Prolonged exposures to such chemical treatments are potentially harmful to the human body and brain, with effects ranging from minor allergies to significant nerve damage or even death. The best way to avoid the potential effects of these chemicals is to buy a mattress that is constructed without them.
Unlike traditional mattresses which are made from plastics, urethanes, metals, and harsh textiles which will build up in landfills for decades after being used,latex is a 100% natural material made from the sap of the Hevea Brasiliensis tree which is 100% biodegradable, making it much safer to dispose of when required.
Beyond the latex used in a mattress, the mattress cover's quality is the next important consideration. Yet, many comparisons overlook this key component.
Competing brands boast the use of organic cotton, but typically use cheaper woven fabrics, which are tight, course, and do not offer elasticity, hindering the pressure-relieving benefits of natural latex.
Our non-woven organic cotton covers can stretch in any direction without stressing the knitted fabric, offering much more give and elasticity over woven fabrics, thereby reducing the pressure on the surface of the mattress and improving the blood flow to the neurological system for providing a deeper, undisturbed sleep experience.
PlushBeds exclusive non-woven mattress covers are softer, more breathable, more elastic, offer better moisture control, and provide better pressure relief than the mass produced woven covers used by our competitors.
Everyone knows you can realize a big savings through buying a factory direct latex mattress on the internet, but what if it's too soft or too firm?
Many latex mattress companies glue their layers together, in fact, as many as 4 cups of glue are used in a single all natural latex mattress. If the firmness is not what you had hoped for, what are your options? Your only option is to re-package and ship the whole mattress back.
At PlushBeds, we specifically do NOT glue layers together for more comfort and purity. Our non-glue policy is made for all the right reasons, including your ability to exchange layers of latex for firmness adjustments without having to ship back the whole mattress.

Our PlushBeds Construction Works for You….
…in Our Botanical Bliss Natural Latex Mattress Collection
By careful engineering and design, we ensure key quality manufacturing standards are in effect during your mattress production. Every step of our manufacturing process is carefully monitored by a sophisticated computer control system in an advanced, production facility, developed to produce and construct only the world's finest latex mattress components. We follow-up production with a Quality Assurance procedure that checks every mattress before it is shipped to you.
From the initial design to the final product testing and assembly, our entire manufacturing team uses the latest technologies and best natural materials to create the world's finest, most consistent botanical latex foam mattress.
Every latex mattress passes through a rigorous quality control process before leaving our facility.
A world-class luxury organic cotton circular-knit cover wraps your mattress while designed for the greatest comfort, flexibility, health, and eco-friendly support. The chemical-free cotton cover created with soft, breathable organic cotton, and 100% pure Joma New Zealand wool is quilted together, not glued or laminated as many competitors offer, resulting in a softer, more breathable mattress surface designed for optimal pressure relief. All components of your cover are natural.
Breathe….deeply….it's 100% certified, soft, high-quality organic cotton. With unsurpassed non-restricted airflow, moisture absorption, breathability, and environmental safety, your Botanical Bliss™ organic latex mattress cover also provides more safety, environmental integrity and care because the cotton was grown without any dangerous pesticides or herbicides. We care about you, your choices and your health…and so, we choose the best.
The organic cotton's circular knit elasticity provides a natural wrinkle resistant and stretchable surface without becoming permanently distorted, thereby enabling less constriction of blood flow and less neurological system constriction. This lets you enjoy a deeper undisturbed sleep, and optimizes regeneration and restoration that comes from sleep itself.
Knitted mattress covers are softer, more breathable, more elastic, offer better moisture control, and provide better pressure relief than mass produced woven covers.
Botanical Bliss™ knitted organic cotton cover
The soft, non-allergenic Joma New Zealand Wool used in your latex mattress cover is ideal for those who suffer from allergies to feather, down, or synthetic bedding products.
When used in the right proportions within a mattress cover, Joma natural wool creates a micro climate which assists in regulating body temperature and humidity. Our wool breathes more naturally than synthetic counterparts, allowing your body to get to a comfortable sleeping temperature quicker and maintain it through the night.
Additionally, Joma wool can absorb up to 30% of its own weight in water without feeling wet. As humidity levels rise, the wool fibers absorb and store the moisture, keeping the humidity at your skin surface relatively low, which ensures that damp, clammy feeling will never be experienced on our latex mattresses. Joma wool's dry and absorbent nature keeps mildew and dust mites away while keeping you dry and comfortable all night.
Most importantly, Joma wool's high keratin protein and moisture content make it naturally resistant to burning. Tests show natural wool to be among the safest bedding materials as wool can allow a latex mattress to naturally pass flammability tests without the use of chemical flame retardants.
Right underneath your mattress's organic cotton cover is a plush comfort layer of the world's finest 100% natural talalay latex from Latex International, which offers a pressure-reducing, buoyant sensation found only with natural botanical latex.
The 100% Natural Talalay Latex used in your Botanical Bliss talalay latex mattress is healthy by design. Air is infused into the latex compound to create latex foam's open cell structure that provides a cooler sleep surface.
Talalay Latex stops the growth of mold and mildew spores so that you have an allergen-free sleep environment. Less sneezing and wheezing for allergy sufferers is always good news.
100% Natural Talalay Latex
Talalay Latex is an effective barrier to dust mite allergen transfer and so it can help you sleep better! Dust mites are the #1 source of indoor allergens which may lead to sneezing, runny nose and nasal congestion. These allergens are also a leading cause of asthma attacks.
The Talalay process features natural, biodegradable ingredients that come from renewable resources and water-based raw materials: natural latex, air and water. This latex provides the highest quality, most consistent, breathable and resilient comforting latex available in the world, and is a natural, environmentally friendly product for mattresses and pillows.
See How Our Natural Talalay Latex Is Made
All natural, resilient Sri Lankan botanical Dunlop core, specially vulcanized with a more solid feel comfortably supports while providing resistance to sagging or body impressions.
Dunlop Latex provides a heavier and denser base, and it works the best for the core of your mattress - allowing the mattress to absorb pressure while simultaneously being supportive. These benefits ensure the mattress supports your body correctly with natural buoyancy and elasticity --without being too soft or too hard. Only 100% natural latex provides such a uniquely comfortable sleep surface.
100% natural dunlop latex provides the same environmentally supportive and healthy attributes as talalay latex. Natural latex mattresses are a very effective choice for people who have chemical sensitivities or other allergy concerns. Allergens, bacteria and dust mteds do not thrive in natural latex, as they do in mattresses made of other materials. Mold and mildew also cannot find a home in natural latex. Much more durable than traditional mattress cores, 100% natural dunlop offers years of optimal comfort with deep down support.
100% All Natural Latex From Nature to Your Bedroom
The comfort of a latex bed is measured by its firmness (soft to firm), and is measured by the latex ILD (Impression Load Deflection) rating, which is how easily the latex mattress will shape to your body and how much support it is capable of giving. A latex mattress with a very low ILD rating is wonderfully cushy on the body, but provides very little support. In contrast, a latex mattress with a high ILD rating provides great support, but is not very forgiving to your shoulders, hips and knees.
Our 8" Botanical Bliss comes in 4 different firmnesses, Select your firmness in the pricing section below
After extensive sleep studies, PlushBeds found that customers surveyed reported the highest customer satisfaction ratings after sleeping on latex mattresses in the mid-firm ILD range. Customers who slept on mattresses with an ILD below 20 began to experience pain in their lower backs as the latex mattress didn't provide enough support.

Sale Ends: Thursday, June 20th Your organic cotton sheets will be automatically added to your shopping cart
Statistics show that 2.4% of the world's land is planted with cotton yet it accounts for 24% of the world's insecticide market and 11% of global pesticides sales, making it the most pesticide-intensive crop grown on the planet. Pesticides not only disrupt the balance of nature in the field, but also harm people who come in contact with them. According to the Organic Consumers Association, the use of pesticides, which includes insecticides, herbicides and fungicides, for conventional cotton production has created serious problems for human health and the environment in all cotton-growing regions worldwide.
Organic farmers use biologically-based rather than chemically dependent growing systems to raise crops. Organic cotton is often handpicked, especially in developing countries, without the use of defoliants, machinery, or chemicals. Hand picking also means less waste. Our organic cotton is certified organic according to GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) by Control Union, one of the oldest and most reputable independent certification organizations, ensuring that the cotton yarns used in our sheet production are safe for infants. Certification of organic cotton production adds credibility to the final sheet set, assures you of the organic status of the product and encourages payment of premium prices to farmers who engage in organic practices.
Not a problem. Simply call one of our mattress specialists at 1-888-449-5738 and ask for a one-time comfort exchange. For a nominal shipping charge of $45 and a $100 deposit, we'll send you out a new top layer of 100% natural talalay latex (either softer or firmer, depending on your needs).
Simply unzip the cover of your mattress, and exchange the existing top layer with the new one for a perfect night's sleep without the hassle of sending back your whole mattress.
Just put the old latex layer in the box, and send it back to us with the UPS label we provide. Once received, we'll send it out to our 3rd party liquidators and refund your $100 deposit. We don't believe a sale in final until you are sleeping peacefully and happily in the comfort of your new mattress.
If for some reason you decide that your Plushbeds natural latex mattress is just not for you, you may return it for a full refund of your purchase price, minus a flat $99 return shipping fee.
From the day your mattress is delivered, you have 100 days to fall in love with it. Because sleeping on natural latex has a different feel than most traditional mattresses, we ask that you give your body 30 days to adjust. After the first 30 days, if you don't fall in love with your new latex mattress for any reason, just call us to arrange a return and box the mattress for return shipping. We'll send a private carrier for a curbside mattress pickup, who will ship the mattress back to us. We'll pay for all the round trip shipping costs and you will receive a full refund, minus a flat $99 return fee. Additionally, any pillows or bonuses you received with your mattress are yours to keep.
Our orthopedic foundations and adjustable beds are in a class by themselves, and require such an investment on the part of the company that we can't in good conscience pass them on to a third-party liquidator. The sale price on the orthopedic foundation and adjustable bed are non-refundable. The mattress you choose to put on your foundation is covered by the 100-night return policy, so the risk to you is still minimal with the purchase of our industry-leading adaptable foundations.
Order Cancellation Policy You may cancel your order any time prior to your natural latex mattress being shipped (up to 7 days from placing your order), and you will receive a complete refund. Once shipped, however, you will be responsible for the shipping charges.
Please also note that if you choose the White Glove professional delivery service on the checkout page, we typically accomplish this by contracting a white glove delivery company in your local area to deliver and set up your new mattress. If you reject the delivery on the delivery date, you will be responsible for all white glove delivery costs which will be deducted from your refund. Of course, if any delivery issues arise, please contact us immediately at 1-888-449-5738 to assist you.

Very good experience. Staff, location, restaurants and history are the highlights of this very interesting and highly recommendable hotel. The only complaint refers to the size of the room.

Michigan could turn to freshmen to shore up depth behind Brandon Moore at tight end
Melanie Maxwell | AnnArbor.com
Last year's top player at the position, Kevin Koger, is gone. So is second tight end Steve Watson. And Pharaoh Brown, who was dropped from the incoming freshman class. And Christopher Barnett, who left during last year's camp.
Paired with poor recruiting classes at the position the past few years, because former coach Rich Rodriguez didn't feature the position in his offense, and the Wolverines are left with a gulf at the position.
Who's left?
It starts with Brandon Moore, a fifth-year senior who appeared in 12 games last year at tight end, but played sparingly. He has two career catches.
Melanie Maxwell | AnnArbor.com
That's still good enough to make him Michigan's most experienced player at the position.
He will begin the season No. 1 on the depth chart, taking over Koger's old role, but coach Brady Hoke said the senior first must work on his physicality in camp.
"That's one of the big things with Brandon that probably was his biggest weakness, was being physical all the time," Hoke said after Thursday's practice.
Who plays at the second tight end spot? That could go to a freshman.
Michigan has two in its most recent class, and A.J. Williams seems to be the best fit for the second tight end slot, which is used primarily for blocking. The burly freshman tips the scales at 6-foot-6, 283 pounds.
"For 280 pounds, he does pretty well," Hoke said. "A lot of people think we're going to make him a tackle, but he can run."
WIN UM vs. ALABAMA TICKETS
Is 280 pounds too heavy for a tight end?
"Depends on what you want him to do," Hoke said. "He runs well enough. I shouldn't say surprisingly, because we recruited him. We must have thought he ran well enough. But for moving that big body around, he's not bad."
Hoke said a big, blocking freshman such as Williams could especially see the field in short-yardage packages because there's no one else to fill that role due to the depth crunch.
Fifth-year senior walk-on Mike Kwiatkowski also has received praise from Hoke, and could provide depth at the second tight end position.
"Mike is a guy who we can use a little bit as a second tight end," Hoke said. "I think he's better."
The other freshman, Devin Funchess, is a much different tight end than his classmate Williams. The Farmington Hills Harrison product stands 6-5, 229 pounds, which means he likely won't be a force as a blocker this year.
But he's also considered to be a much more polished pass-catcher, and could end up serving as Moore's backup at the primary tight end position.
Junior Ricardo Miller, who was believed to be moving to receiver after playing tight end last season, is practicing at both positions but not expected to make the two-deep roster.

The Connemara "Stands on short legs, covering a lot of ground". They have a short, dense, flat and clean cannon bone, measuring 7 to 9 inches below the knee. The body is deep and compact, well-balanced with depth, substance and good heart room. The Connemara has a good sloping shoulder, length of rein, and moves freely with little knee action in surprisingly large strides for its heights. On this strong, sturdy body sets a handsome head with a well defined jaw and good width between large kind eyes. They are mannerly and manageable, kind and responsive, and possess good sense and basic intelligence. Easy keepers, they do not require a rich diet to stay healthy and fit.
The Connemara is the largest of the pony breeds, ranging in height from 13 - 15 hands with 14 - 14.2 hands as the average. Full maturity is reached at five years of age, sometimes older, and they can live well into their 30's. The most common colors are grey and dun, but there are blacks, bays, browns, chestnuts, palominos and an occasional roan. Black points are common but paints are not acceptable. Sure-footed, hardy and agile, they possess powers of great stamina, staying power and adaptability. They are renowned for their versatility and their gentle, tractable, sensible and willing dispositions.
When one thinks of a pony breed children come to mind, yet the Connemara has always been a suitable mount for children AND adults. In the United States, the largest market for the Connemara is a middle-aged woman.
The Connemara has a natural jumping ability, and its build lends it suitable for dressage. They often beat larger horses with staying power, intelligence and heart. As a show jumper or working hunter, eventing, western pleasure, endurance and driving – the Connemara can do it all!
There are no large commercial breeding farms. Most keep only a few mares. After all, the Connemara breed was built on one good mare per farm. Foals are raised with much human contact.
Connemaras have been exported to all European countries, even New Zealand and Australia. With there ability to adapt to extremes of climate, they have made useful working partners with those who own them and have competed with the best of the sport horse breeds. These ponies are the image of strength, kindness and trust and can charm their way into your heart.
While the history of the Connemara is obscure it is considered Ireland's only native breed. The Ancient Celts brought two ponies to Connemara more than 2,500 years ago and used them to draw war chariots and carts along the beaches of their new found home. Legend has it that when the Spanish Armada sank off the Connemara coast in the 16th Century, the horses swam to shore and bred with the native ponies running wild in the mountains.
The area of Western Ireland known as Connemara is rocky, barren mountainous terrain and is full of endless desolate moors and bogs with shores pounded by the tide and storms of the Atlantic. These ponies learned to live in these conditions where a misplaced step could send a pony crashing to its death. Over the centuries in the ruggedness of their western Irish environment, the Connemara developed its prized qualities of hardiness, agility and extraordinary jumping ability.
Farmers in this area had large families to support and could usually only afford one good pony. These were often captured off the mountain and tamed. This pony had to be a mare that could have a foal each year to sell and also pull a plow or a cart and work from dawn to dusk often under extremely harsh conditions. These ponies were fitted with baskets called creels to carry heavy loads. The Connemara pony moved tons of rock and hauled seaweed from the shores to fertilize the barren fields. Their strong sturdy legs could maneuver through the muck which might swallow a different type of horse. She pulled the plow and carted the family to Mass on Sunday. Never a day of rest she survived by having hardiness, stamina and a good disposition or she was replaced. Stallions would travel the primitive roads between villages breeding many mares and covering many miles in one day. Local racing was popular and the Connemaras competed equally with the larger Irish Hunters and Thoroughbreds.
The Connemara Pony Breeders Society was formed in 1923 in Clifden by the local breeders for the purpose of conserving and developing the breed. Centuries of natural selection, some interference needed for human survival, followed by the past 72 years of selective breeding has given us the quality Connemara we have today.

I stayed at the Embassy Suites on 09/04 due to sheer business necessity, and because they were the only hotel with available rooms that weekend. Despite... the hotel, like all in ATL that weekend, being swamped, the front desk staff were cheery and helpful. The room was great, the standard ES separate bedroom from the living room/dining room/kitchenette. The usual ES "Manager's Reception"in the evening with free drinks and snacks offered absolutely phenomenal real green, red and white tortilla chips with endless guacamole, sour cream and salsa--delicious! My one suggestion for improvement (and this seems to be the norm in all ES I have stayed) is that the room AC goes down only to 66 F...absolutely insufficient on a sweltering Georgia summer day. The guest should be allowed to choose the room temperature, not the hotel management. Without that issue, my stay would have essentially been five-star. Anmeldt af en Hotels.com-gæst d. 5. sep 2012

General Highlights:
DT Evander Ziggy Hood Highlights Missouri 2008
Draft Guys TV (whoevertheFtheyare) review. Really, I just included this for his interview during the Senior Bowl (?):
Evander Hood - Pittsburgh Steelers - Draft Scouting Snapshot
I found a few other highlight clips, but none that were worth sharing.
One thing I'll say about this dude...to me, he plays more like a slow~ish 4-3 DE than a true 3-4 DE. For his size, he's fast and crazy nimble. It seems like he makes big plays when he's able to get a guy leanin' or when he jukes 'em out of their shoes. It isn't too often that he just blows by (through) a lineman to make a play. Long and short of it, you put a hat on him and he becomes somewhat neutralized. However, he does seem to compensate for that somewhat by having that "never quits" motor. He just doesn't stop coming at you, even when the play has moved downfield or into the flat. A good example of that was that one highlight where he came in on a screen and after it was dumped off to the RB, the back made a move to elude one defender, but Hood ran the play down from behind.
IMO, his speed and ability to "cover" a certain part of the field won't be an issue. He doesn't appear to be the type that just operates in a 20x20 foot box around the LOS. He can go sideline to sideline no problem. To me (and this is no surprise as several have discussed already), his biggest issue will be his strength. Will he be able to get a good push at the point of attack on Sunday when he's got a 325# OT leanin' on him?
I also found myself saying "This dude's 300#s?" more than once. Sometimes for something positive, other times for something negative. He'd make a ridiculously nifty move on the edge where he'd spin past an OT ala a 4-3 DE and flush the QB out of the pocket or snag a RB for a loss, but then he'd come of the LOS and lock up with an OT (interstingly, I think I saw him vs. Urbik on a play or two) and basically get stoned. After a couple seconds of dancing the two step, the ballcarrier would come his way and he'd make the tackle.
Seems like they got a pretty good athlete for the position and he also appears to be a guy that can be coached up, but I'm just wondering if that's good enough for your R1 pick; especially considering some of the football players that were still on the board there. Yeah, it's a 1.32 pick and maybe I'm nitpicking, but this seems to be a riskier (reach?) pick than going with a Maualuga, or even Butler or Britton.
Like the Timmons pick, we'll have to wait and see how it unfolds. I'm also curious to see how Larry holds up as an every down guy versus being a situational rusher.
Generally speaking, as to Tomlin's R1 picks, for me, I'm very much in the minority, I think. I've had reservations about every one of 'em. I liked his latter picks better. Hopefully, Timmons' play last year was just the start of me being wrong on all 3.

My snap judgment is that Ziggy will be less effective against the run, but, man, I'm wouldn't want to be a QB playing our defense in obvious passing situations next season.
With Ziggy on the DL, and Harrison, Woodley, and now Timmons all rushing the passer? Tsk, tsk.

I agree that the guy's size and the guy's quickness don't seem to fit. You can either view that as a negative (doesn't play strong enough for the position he'll play) or a positive (how many 3-4 DE's have that combo of size/speed?).
I'll admit I wasn't excited about the pick (especially given the state of the O-line), but considering the age/contract situations with our DLine, I think it's good that we can add a guy now and gradually build the defensive front of the future, rather than having to rush and try and add a whole bunch of guys at once. I'm willing to give Tomlin and the FO the benefit of the doubt on Ziggy and see how he'll fit into the scheme over the next couple of years.

howard, that fat chick from girls and leno are all going to be on a couch eating doritos
Yeah, that turned out to be a great success!
He actually tried saying that piece of shit commercial was the best one of the night. Asshole.
I doubt they'll spend the cash on an AGT commercial, especially with production costs of a super bowl one. Not exactly a huge crossover from NFL playoffs to kids dancing and dog acts.

I was hoping you meant Howard would be bungee jumping for a Doritos.
That was his super idea for a commercial he was hyping for weeks for everyone to see. And that was the result . . .

Cars Merchandise is Expected to top Toy Story, Become Largest Film Licensing Property
In anticipation of the films June 24 release, Disney/Pixar has been releasing merchandise for Cars 2 since mid-May. Theres a good chance youve probably seen some of it by now, whether in Disney Stores around the country, or even aprons and mini cake-baking pans available at Williams-Sonoma stores. Indeed, this merchandise is so prevalent, Disney recently disclosed that Cars 2 merchandise is on track to beat sales from last summers mega-hit Toy Story 3, which took in over $2.4 billion in retail sales in 2011.
In a recent webcast, head of Disneys consumer products division Andy Mooney said that Cars merchandise will be available in every conceivable category that will enable it [to] be the largest licensee program in history. So far, these many various categories include hundreds of different toys, apparel, cooking appliances, and more.
Analysts agree that it is realistic for Cars merchandise to top Toy Story 3s merchandise sales, considering that merchandise from the first Cars movie, released in 2006, is still popular with consumers five years later. In addition to this plethora of merchandise, the film will also be promoted with the upcoming Cars Land area in Disneylands Disney California Adventure Park, and a series of short Cars Toons films.
If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together.......
there is something you must always remember.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
But the most important thing is, even if we're apart...... I'll always be with you.
Winne the Pooh - A A Milne
A friend is a hand that is always holding yours,
no matter how close or far apart you may be.
A friend is someone who is always there and will always, always care.
A friend is a feeling of forever in the heart.

Be Grateful Everyday
Ahhh I love so much when reoccurring themes pop up in my life. I popped onto my computer last night to find that two of my favorite blogs were on the same topic- and its one I needed desperately to hear. If I told you to simply BE GRATEFUL, you probably wouldn't give it a second thought. Absent-mindedly you'd think, yeah I know. That's what I thought too!
Listening is new to me right now. I've heard the same things over and over again without absorbing them. It's like when you read a full-page of your book only to realize you didn't actually comprehend it. That's what I've been doing with gratefulness. Earlier in the week I listened to a podcast about it, considered buying a book about it at Barnes and Noble, in fact, all the time I think about how grateful I am for my life! Yet it wasn't until last night that it all clicked into place. I simply needed perspective.
Smile with your Heart- a blog by an adventurous nurse with awesome zeal, posted an incredibly blunt article chronicling the emotions behind her recent trip to Haiti. Having seen true hope in the face of despair, she no longer has it in herself to feel sorry for a man who is impatient with airport security. YET- how many times have I been that airport security man? (ok woman, but you get my drift). How many times have I near about cried because my hot chocolate fell off my car as I pulled out of my driveway? How many times have I felt upset or troubled because a food product was manufactured alongside gluten (which I'm allergic to)? Talk about first world problems! (LITERALLY!).
Now this morning, I find that my awesome friend and co-Young Life leader wrote a post about being grateful while writing an excruciating term paper! Talk about hammering the point in!! (I GOT IT!! Thanks for the message!). Did you ever see the movie Bruce Almighty? I've always related to the moment when he is crying out for a sign and a truck full of signs pulls in front of him. He still doesn't get it. Yep that's me! Once again it all comes back to listening. It's time to crack my ears open and stop being the one to chatter. Apparently big things are in the works here. I'm all ears!!
So how to be more grateful? Appreciate what I have, which is A LOT! I love my job, which is actually not very common. My husband travels quite a bit, which affords me time for all my Young Lifers. I used clean water in my tea this morning, which many countries don't even have access to. I put a shirt on this morning that I haven't even worn before while many people only have one (if that). I brushed my teeth this morning with fluoride hardly realizing that without that my teeth would have rotted out before the age of 18. There are so many large and itty-bitty things that I am thankful for, and remembering all of those things can make a HUGE difference! Afterall, some of the most desolate and poverty ridden countries are full of some of the most grateful and hopeful people on earth. Who am I to not feel the same way despite having so much?
It's a beautiful life, and I plan on living and loving every second of it!
