King size memory foam mattresses are heavy and difficult to move around, takes 2 or 3 really strong men to handle it. I am female, 5'4", 180 lbs and 53 years of age. I can put a King size organic latex mattress in my Honda Sonata and deliver it to my customer along with a King size organic fleece and two shredded rubber pillows. No need to flip or rotate our mattresses either like you would need to do on a memory foam mattress.

It all depends on the density on the memory foam used in the mattress. This will vary from mattress to mattress.

1)Honda doesn't make a Sonata. 2) High quality latex is much heavier than even the 'best' memory foam. Tempur-Pedic fools people with the super dense cores.
