I purchased this mattress from Rooms To Go in Greensboro. First of all the sales associate was very helpful, a professional. He was very helpful taking into account the issues I have had in the past with back and shoulder pain. I must confess I have been through my fair share of mattresses and have come to the conclusion that their is no perfect mattress for everyone. As you can see by the reviews some people have felt this mattress wasn't what they were looking for, I myself have had 3-4 mattresses in the last 5-7 years and those that haven't done well for me in the past I'm sure were perfect for someone else. I am 6'4 and my wife is 5'4, she finds that it is the perfect comfort for her and I feel as if this is the perfect balance between comfort and support for me. Do youself a favor and lay onthe mattress for a while in the store, it has been a while since I was excited to go to sleep each and every night, but I have found the mattress for me and LOVE IT!!

Hi Brian -- I know it has been awhile since you posted your review, but we just wanted to say thank you so much for your kind words! We'd love to hear an update on how your mattress is treating you over a year later :)
I purchased this mattress 2 weeks ago and have been sleeping like a baby ever since. Salesperson told me that the mattress would conform to my body and it did. I had never heard of this company before but they make a great mattress. I also want to say that Rooms To Go was really very accommodating and the customer service was excellent. I would highly recommend both Carolina Mattress Guild and Rooms To Go.
I bought a Nature's Image natural latex mattress in March. From the first night, I have noticed that I fall asleep faster. In fact, I've been sleeping better, and I don't wake up as much during the night. I have had lower back problems in the past, and I used to wake up feeling stiff with my old mattress. But that is not the case with this one. In fact, I have had no major back flare ups since I bought it.
However, I should point out that I weigh only 146 pounds. This kind of mattress may not be right for heavy people. I think a lot of the poor reviews about this kind of mattress come from heavier people. You may have noticed that the Tempurpedic gets a lot of negative reviews too.
I don't sink into this bed much, so I have had no problem with heat. However, my bed is the plush kind, with no pillow top. I've read that latex is springier than memory foam. The bed contours to my body, so when I roll over, I sometimes feel like I'm rolling up hill a little, but then the bed quickly adjusts to my new position. That took some getting used to at first, but now it really doesn't bother me at all.
One side seems softer than the other, but that's only because I sleep on that side. When I've moved to the other side, that side softens up a bit and contours to my body as well.
All I know is that I'm sleeping better, so I think the bed is working for me.

There seems to be a weight threshold at which the mattress sags permanently. If you are heavier this is not a good mattress. But I do like Latex - a stop in between Memory foam and Coil. My husband feels it is not enough support for him following back surgery. I don't like soft, but I too had surgery and feel it is just right. He feels his side sinks in more than mine and hasn't worn as well at his heavier weight. Not recommended to people over 250 lbs. The manufacturer said if the retailer doesn't make it right with the warranties they will step in on the consumer's behalf.
Horrible - Do not buy - Especially from Rooms to Go
My boyfriend and I bought this bed from Rooms to Go. I thought it would be a nice alternative to the Tempurpedic bed which were way too expensive for us. Well I should have listened to my boyfriend and just gotten another spring mattress! This thing is horrible. It was really firm for about a week and then all of a sudden it was really soft! Soft to the point that it was sinking in the middle! We had heard from store employees that with the memory foam beds, you have to give them time to form to your body. So we waited about a month to see if it got any better. It didn't! It made my back hurt so bad in the mornings! I started putting a pillow under my bottom to lift me in the middle because it sank in the middle so much! We called Rooms to Go and they had an "inspector" come out to look at it. Even though there was about an inch and a half sag in the middle (after 1 month!), they said it was not defective and would not take it back or give a refund! Of course! I will never go back to Rooms to Go for anything! I will never buy this mattress brand again either! What a waste! A $200 bed (which is what we are sleeping on now) is way better than this bed!

My wife and I bought this mattress at Rooms to Go. It is made by a small manufacturer in North Carolina. What a wonderful bed it has been. We sleep very well and really enjoy the memory foam feel but do not feel the heat that many people complain about with the Temperpedic mattress. It was a great value and we highley recomend it.
I purchased mattress from Rooms to Go and can't get them to admit that it has a problem. It is only 5 months old. On complete right side to the middle, it is real soft and edges collapse when sitting on it. On the left side from middle to edge it is firm. When there is no weight on bed, it pops up and looks like it is normal. Never got any warranty info on it.
