Its here by popular demand: The Earthsake Solution for an Easy (EZ) Ship Do-it-Yourself (DIY) customizable organic mattress without the toxic chemicals.
Can't easily get a mattress up the stairs or into your apartment? Need something that ships in smaller UPSable boxes/packages with components you can put together yourself but without the polyurethane foams and toxic chemicals found in other compact EZ ship mattresses? Or do you just like to put all the components together yourself to make sure its done right? Maybe you just want full and easy access to the components of your mattress whether you want to change them around or not. Its all up to you with this one. You are the mattress maker in this Utopia!
The Utopia mattress has an organic cotton zippered cover with at least 3- 3" inch high layers (3+3+3) made of all natural botanical latex with no added chemicals or polyurethane foams.
But you can also split these layers to fit each sleeper's comfort preference from Soft to Firm on either side of the bed. This also offers you more interchangeable options. If you like your bed to feel soft and your sleeping partner likes it to feel firm - argue no more - you can have both in the same mattress and you don't have to settle for an unnatural memory foam or sleep number bed to do it.
The Utopia can be customized on each side of the bed to each sleeper's exact specifications using 3 individual 100% botanical latex cores for each side of the bed in whatever firmness levels desired for each core. All layers are interchangeable with an easy to use zippered organic cotton cover that you simply place each layer into whatever order you'd like and zip it shut.
Our recommendations: We've been matching people to comfortable mattresses for many years and know how to create the best fit... so we always recommend speaking with one of our professionals to discuss your personal needs. Here are a few general tips: Stomach and side-sleepers tend to like a softer feel while back-sleepers tend to like a firmer feel. Even the softest beds manufactured today have at least one level of firmer support toward the bottom with the soft layers on top. As such, we recommend a bottom layer of at least Medium or Firm latex to simply give you the support your body needs. On the other end of the spectrum, even the firmest of beds manufactured today have a slightly softer top layer to provide a little bit of "give" to fit your body contour without any loss of firm body support. As such - unless you really do prefer and enjoy sleeping on a hard floor we do recommend using at least one Medium level latex on the top layer. You can do whatever you'd like - but these are some good guidelines to be aware of as sinking in / body impresssions are common with extremely soft mattresses and rock like hard mattress issues are common with extremely firm mattresses. You are building what you get and there is no warranty coverage for firmness choices or the effects of those choices. . But not to worry - we do allow for a free layer exchange within 90 days of purchase. You only cover shipping. If you are beyond 90 days you can purchase each layer individually withouth having to buy a whole new mattress if/when your needs change.
Our most popular combination is a Firm bottom-layer - Medium middle-layer - and Soft top-layer. It's the perfect balance of comfort & support! 3 - 3" layers of complete Utopia!

Please note: The $11 "California Recycle Fee" is now required by law for each new mattress and boxspring/foundation unit sold in California.
