People often want my opinion on which mattress type is better, especially between Latex and Memory Foam/aka Visco. They both have attributes that make them great mattresses but they feel quite different. I always give the customers the facts and let them make their own decision. I don't think of myself as a sales person but more of a guide. At the end of the day it's their comfort that counts and everyone has their own personal preference. I just want to make sure I can give them the information they need to make the right decision. I want them to love their mattress.
Memory foam has a gel-like feel, and contouring support. Some people love the feeling and will sleep on nothing else, while others can't get used to it. It is all a matter of what you like. Tempur-material, is only found in Tempur-Pedic mattresses, and are not like other memory foams. The Tempur Technology lets the mattress sense and conform to your particular body shape and temperature, allowing you to sleep undisturbed thru the night. If you fall into the "Hot Sleeper" category Tempur-Pedic has created the new Breeze Technology that makes the mattress actually feel cool to the touch and draws heat away from your body, keeping you cool. "+CantoniSleepStudio sells "+Tempur-Pedic because it is the best in it's category with the most options. 
Latex beds can be confusing to consumers. There's a lot of words thrown around that most people have never heard of such as Talalay, Dunlop, and terms that we know such as green, organic, natural, synthetic, it makes cutting to the truth difficult. I have done quite a bit of research on the subject because I want to untangle the myths, dispel rumors and give "+Cantoni Sleep Studio customers the facts, so they are armed with knowledge to help them make an educated decision when choosing a Latex Mattress.
Natural Latex is great for durability. There are two types of Synthetic Latex, Dunlop and Talalay.
Dunlop has been around longer. The problem with having a bed made completely from Dunlop is every layer is slightly different because of the method used, natural sediment settles to the bottom of each layer. The layers are slightly firmer on the bottom. Dunlop latex is great to use has a support layer in a latex mattress.
Talalay latex is made in a similar way, with the exception of several key steps. After the latex is poured it is sealed in a vacuum chamber then it is flash frozen before it's baked. This makes for a more consistent cell structure making it more breathable and the feel more consistent. The best latex mattresses are made with a combo of both Natural latex for durability and Talalay latex for its consistency. The most common ratio is 60% synthetic and 40% natural. Be cautious if a company doesn't disclose the percentage of natural latex in the mattress. There are companies out there who no longer use petroleum oil to make latex but use plant based oils, so it's still good to our world. Cantoni carries latex mattresses designed by Earl Kluft, we have them in both firm and plush. Latex comfort level is often compared to spring mattresses because of the bounce.
If you have concerns about latex allergies, let me put your mind to rest. Talalay latex is produced in such a way that the allergen producing protein is removed, washed out because of the open cell. The latex mattress never touches anyone. 1% of the population is allergic to latex and not a single report of latex allergy has been due to latex pillows or mattresses.
If you have any questions or concerns please drop me a note and I will get you an answer.
