The biggest advantage to Talalay is it’s soft support, and coolness. With a more open cell structure than Dunlop it breathes better and allows for the mattress to be softer allowing for better support without hammocking. This feature makes it ideal for those of us with hip and shoulder problems by taking the weight off of those pressure points. An expected life span of at least 10 years can be expected.

Note to reader: As of Feb 2018 we have both used and sold Talalay products for approximately 8 years with zero warranties on complete systems. I feel the 10 year warranty we put on these is a bare minimum of life.  I’m sure these mattresses will go many years with only minor softening.

While Dunlop isn’t as supportive as Talalay it is extremely long lasting. If hip and shoulder problems aren’t the issue our Dunlop mattress will last an extremely long time with firm support.
