Kind of like how Savoir or Hasten's have their beds structured. However, for something like that it will probably invalidate a lot of 'regular' mattresses on the market and, thus, many companies don't want to take that route because it will eventually open Pandora's Box.īut I highly support a two or three-tiered mattress system like Natura or Ventura Mattress that build their mattresses to have a solid support layer that's separate and a removable comfort layer that can easily be discarded/replaced when it wears out I would definitely pay $300-$500 every few years to replace the top comfort layer as long as it was not only super comfortable, semi-long-lasting and was easy to take off the bed (like a topper). I agree it would be insanely helpful to have a comfort topper that essentially is just a few inches of compressed materials like cotton/wool/hemp/horsehair/pla/etc that will last for that long and can easily be repaired or replaced when it wears down. It is what it is, and short of experimenting with your own materials/covers you'll likely not find something comparable to what most mattress companies offer :\ If it's a loose material like shredded latex or down/feather then you can box stitch it or stitch 'tubes' for them and you'd be OK largely but if you're using fibrous materials like cotton or wool or horsehair then you need to make absolutely certain they won't break/shift/warp over time. Then you have to tuft or sew the materials not only together but inside of the cover to keep it from sliding around or breaking apart after hours of your body shifting back and forth on your bed. etc) then you have to put them in something to keep them protected, like a cover that most mattresses toppers come with. The problem is that if you get two layers of compressed materials (cotton or wool or horsehair or hemp or. Kind of like the DIY wool topper kits you can find on custom bedding sites. You'd probably have to tuft or hand-stitch the layers together, at the least, if you wanted it to work as a DIY comfort layer. Not saying your take is wrong, but I suppose I don't see anything wrong with compressed layers of wool, cotton, silk, hemp, etc as long as it does what it's supposed to do (be plush and semi-supportive without much body impression issues long-term). Especially since most of those thin layers in the panel layer are super-thin and do not usually exceed 1.5 inches max (so it's not really a problem with compression, per se, but more that they do that on purpose so body impressions aren't more likely to form). Most beds come with this cotton/wool/pla layer stitched into the panel (along with sometimes convoluted toppers like you mentioned) so if someone wants to make a wool/cotton/whatever layer that's only super-thin (.5-2 inches) then wouldn't that be fine, in the end? I suppose I've just seen so many beds with wool/cotton panels that all have a thin layer of some type of fabric in them to make it more plush without too much body impressions/shifting that it doesn't seem like a truly bad thing to go this route, imo. I think the important question to ask is: Why not make a DIY 1.5 inch wool/cotton layer, even if it becomes compressed every few years? All layers will eventually become compressed (whether that's memory foam or wool/cotton) if it's a comfort layer, so making a DIY wool/cotton/hemp/whatever layer for your comfort layer to make it a bit more plush is fine, isn't it?
