Buying a mattress without actually
laying on one is difficult. We know. We have tried to compare the
natural and blend mattresses here to help in your decision. We want you
to have the mattress you want that will make your night comfortable and
your day productive. We have included on our Ecobaby site, a list of
stores that carry our products, maybe there is one near you. If not,
then I hope this chart provides you with the information you need to
make an informed decision. Maybe you will accept some chemicals to save
money, that is an option, we just do not want to sell them - with this chart you can have an idea of
what your options really are without all the misinformation that is out
there. Here is the email
response I got when asking a manufacturer about their rubber.
"Dear Ginny Turner,
Thanks for your
interested in our mattresses and material.
Our latex foams in
mattresses is 100% natural , and the rubberised coconut coir have
less than 20% benzene , tolenene ----,which is far less content
than our china government's limit : 70%. so we are proud to said
that our products are totally natural and organic. especially, we
are dealing with the indivially pocketd plant spring. which is
attractive in natural mattresses.
Looking forward to your
letter
Best wishes

This concerns me as they
are trying to say this is an all natural product
