It has taken some time to get used to a Latex mattress, but this is a very good mattress, and I'm glad I got it. It was much more reasonably priced from Great Offer Stock than from most retailers of Latex mattresses where they can be double or more of the price I paid. The mattress is at least 15 inches thick, and is very heavy. It needs a sturdy metal frame that sits only a few inches above the floor. It is a queen, and while most modern queen fitted sheets are adjusted for deep mattresses, the top sheets are still the same. The result is that the typical queen sheet only hangs about half way down the mattress on the sides and there is very little to tuck in on the bottom. I had a chance to buy some sheets online piece by piece, so I got the queen fitted sheet, a king top sheet, and two sets of two standard pillow cases because we use side sleeper pillows from a particular retailer. I have a king cotton blanket, a king coverlet, and standard size pillow shams. This worked.
