Question from Deanna
Hi! We need to purchase a new bed in the next week or so. I would love to purchase an organic mattress, but we’re balking a little at the price. Is there any feedback on how long an organic mattress lasts? (I’ve heard a rule of thumb to change out regular mattresses every 10 years or so) And since there are no places around the Dallas/Fort Worth area to actually go and sit on an organic mattress, I’m concerned about the comfort. Do you have any suggestions for us?
Many thanks for a great website and service!

I’ve been sleeping on my wool mattress from Shepherd’s Dream for over 10 years and it is just as it was when new. There’s actually a company in Scandanavia I think (don’t remember the name and I’m not at home to look it up) that makes “heirloom” natural beds that can be passed down from generation to generation.
Readers, what is your experience with how long your natural beds last?
