The quiz said I should get the 12" medium model of the botanical bliss. I was planning on the 9" medium. what's the difference?

Hi Jamie -- Thanks for your question. If you score well for the 12" Medium, I'm sure you would also score well for the 9" Medium. Since the quiz only has room for 3 online options, it chooses only the best-matching model from a given manufacturer. You can see your full list of online matches here, which very likely includes the 9" Medium as well:

While the feel of these two models should be very similar, there are some subtle differences:

  • The 12" model should have slightly deeper cushioning, giving it a bit more ability to conform to your body's curves and a bit more of a cradling feel.
  • The 12" model has more latex to support the weight of your body over time, so it should last a bit longer, particularly if you're over 200 lbs.
  • The 12" model will obviously be taller, giving it a slightly different aesthetic profile on your bed.

I hope that helps.
