Buyer's Guide
Here are a few points of comparison to consider when choosing between memory foam and latex:Comfort
Both latex and memory foam can provide excellent levels of comfort. At the end of the day it's a matter of taste which you prefer. Latex tends to feel more springy.Memory foam can adjust in more detail to the contours of a body and give more precise support. To counter this some latex mattresses have different sections of different firmness.
Memory foam can sometimes be slower to adjust to your contours especially at lower temperatures. This is reportedly more pronounced with the denser premium foams.
Personally I prefer the feel of memory foam, but not everyone agrees.
