A hemp mattress is ideally used when the weather is humid, as it will be able to stand molds and mildew formation. This topper isn’t only all that, it also has a slip cover for added protection and is made of lightweight composition, perfect for laying atop any kind of regular mattress.

While it is quite lightweight and thin, this hemp mattress is inspired from the Japanese idea of layering mattress in order to create customized comfort and support.

The chemicals used to flameproof mattresses have never been studied for human exposure risk in this application. (Except now the CPSC has released a limited study.)

We know almost all the chemicals to flameproof mattresses are acutely toxic and many also cause cancer.

Dug up this old article from Slate Magazine. Granted that this piece was written a few years back, a lot of its advices still ring true even today. It’s a pretty comprehensive piece, one that covers not just mattress buying per se, but also other concerns a shopper normally carries with choosing a mattress.   Here are just some of the advices given in the said article:

On choosing the best brand:

Innerspring mattresses, particularly the Big S’s (Simmons, Serta, Sealy), dominate the market. But how to choose among Serta and Sealy, Stearns and Foster, and King Koil? Or for that matter, between the Simmons Beautyrest Exceptionale Lenore and the Simmons Beautyrest Do-Not-Disturb Royalty Ultra? Ignore brand names. They’re meaningless. Just pay attention to comfort.
