Compare Memory Foam / Latex Topper

Latex and memory foam are very different materials and it’s a challenge to compare them to each other.

LATEX

Latex is highly resilient, and has a more "on the mattress" feel to it, and responds to pressure.
What you feel on latex stays the same over time.
Latex is more breathable and tends to sleep cooler than memory foam.
Latex also comes in a wider range of firmness levels (ILD) than memory foam.
Latex in general is also a more "supportive" material (gets firmer as you compress it more deeply) than memory foam.
Is made of natural materials

MEMORY FOAM

Memory foam on the other hand has very low resilience, has a more "in the mattress" feel to it
It changes its feel and response with pressure, temperature, humidity, and length of time it is subject to compression forces.

Memory foam is more motion restricting while latex is more resilient and doesn't restrict free movement on the mattress.
Is made mostly of synthetic materials

Both are good at motion isolation because one area can compress without affecting the area around it, but memory foam is a little better at this because it has no resilience.

I conclusion... if your mattress is too firm and only needs some extra pressure relief and it has no soft spots or dips in it, then a topper is a great choice to improve the pressure relief and comfort of your old mattress,

What Latex ILD is most equivalent to a 4lb density foam mattress? If both were 3 inch.
