When Molly turned to Eagles' Rest looking for a non-toxic mattress for her young daughter, she found that the mattress alleviated symptoms of her fibromyalgia, and subsequently improved her sleep. Here she tells her story, in her words.
"This is a short note to tell you that since i've started sleeping on your all-natural mattress i no longer wake up in the middle of the night craving chocolate. In addition, i have compared my video camera footage of how many times i wake up, turn over to the other side, adjust my pillow, kick the cat , scratch my head and resume sleeping and the results are in: with my new Savvy Rest, i have almost eliminated the tossing and turning. The camera does show that i still kick the cat occasionally but otherwise am resting more fully. When i awake in the morning i simply turn off the chocolate incensed air freshener machine, give the cat a pet and leisurely stand and stretch with a smile on my face. I give this mattress two thumbs up, a high-five, a Caramel Nut Truffle Oscar and thank the rubber tree fairies for sharing their milky elixir of white syrup with us."

"Shopping for our new organic mattress at Eagles' Rest in Lawrence, KS, was a great experience and we are so happy with the result. The Serenity organic mattress is extremely comfortable. By arranging the layers you can make it so that the mattress has just the right amount of softness or hardness for your own personal preference, and by splitting the mattress the bed can different on each side. We bought the talalay pillowtop and several of the organic pillows, too. I never have had such a comfortable bed."

"I researched mattresses for months, I read all the reviews, and I compared all the facts, but I realized what I really needed to do was to "feel" how the mattress performed. After much debate my husband and I drove to Eagles' Rest to look at and tryout the Savvy Rest mattress.
The shopping experience was wonderful because we were not rushed, but instead had all the time it took for us to learn about latex mattresses and for us to try several different levels of comfort to sleep on. We had never been able to agree on a mattress since my husband liked a more firm mattress and I needed a softer feel because of arthritis. We both got what we wanted in the Savvy Rest latex mattress!
Three months later my husband and I agree it is the best money we have ever spent. We both sleep better, and we found that the extra benefit of not even feeling the bed move when one of us gets up helps us sleep even better.
Our latest problem is that our frequent guests have discovered the comfort of our mattress and think we should buy one for the guest room!

"The Mattress Matters - Ha Ha! I purchased my Savvy Rest Dunlop Queen size mattress in the midwinter of 2010. Instantly, i loved my new bed! I felt satisfied to put my money where it really matters to me and where i do spend a significant amount of time. I do not have a large income and knew financially it would be a stretch, but it has been so worth it!
I actually enjoyed assembling the layers. I also helped a friend assemble hers too. Both went fairly easy for me.
Before sleeping on our new SR, my young and otherwise very healthy husband who had for about 5years been developing chronic breathing problems (even using an inhaler at times) soon healed up and was no longer triggered to asthma attacks at night. We all sleep better because of that! Prior to this mattress purchase, we had been sleeping on an older but decent brand's conventional mattress. I enjoyed more warmth from the SR upon getting into bed as my old mattress was often shockingly cold in winter.
Also, after 1 month of sleeping very well on our new SR bed, we took a vacation to visit family for three weeks. My low back and neck really took a hit sleeping on too soft a bed. I am usually physically fit, and I sure had to do some repair work on my spine! ouch! lots of stretching in the morning! I was so relieved to feel that back pain dissipate after my first and second nights of sleep back home. Aaahhh! I could go on and on but it would just echo that we love all the benefits we've received from this change over. Soon after, I purchased two SR pillows and love them too.
About her twin Dunlop SR bed, my 5 year old, Arabella says, "I love my bed so much that I can jump on my bed, but sometimes I worry about spiders at night when I am sleeping!" Well I know that is what she thinks about her bed, and that I am glad I do not have to worry about her sleeping on a mattress that I believe to have far more health disrupting elements than she is aware of at this time.
After 1 1/2 years, I still love and highly recommend this bedding company and am very grateful for Diane's having introduced me to these products."

"I love my Savvy rest mattress. I think it’s the best bed I’ve ever had. Savvy gives you a very balanced support compared to other mattresses. Since we were already eating organic food and wearing organic cotton, purchasing an organic mattress just made sense.
I feel really good about having an organic mattress for myself and my daughter. I wanted a mattress that was made in a way that was good for the environment and the people who made it. I like that the manufacture of this mattress didn’t involve any pesticides. And I liked the idea of sleeping on something that wasn’t off-gassing chemicals that could be harmful.
The mattress was delivered in good condition and was easy to put together. It disassembles quickly, is so flexible in that we can change the firmness of it just by rearranging layers within... and it's so easy to move. I can do it all by myself!
I’m a side sleeper and I had shoulder pain on other beds. With Savvy Rest, I do not. Also, I no longer experience headaches like I did on our old memory foam mattress.
The only drawback is that since this is a heavier mattress I’ve really had to reinforce my bed. I have a cheap, crib conversion kit and have added slats, but it is still somewhat lacking when it comes to stability. Latex beds seem to need a solid base of support.
I recommend Savvy Rest to all my friends. I think everybody should have one."

"We both LOVE our new Savvy Rest! I find I am sleeping sounder and much longer. I slept until 10:00 yesterday, which is unheard of for me. I'm usually up at the crack of dawn. I wake up feeling much more rested. And I love that you can't feel the other person moving around.
Thank you for working with us and for all your patience. You have been wonderful! We are affirming that your business with thrive and prosper. We will certainly suggest your store for anyone in the market for a good, organic bed."

"After a very bad experience from breathing the off-gassing of a memory foam mattress, I searched the Internet for a truly organic mattress. It is a truly difficult task, as there are a lot of claims that are unfounded. After much research, my wife and I found that the only place in the Kansas City area that we could actually see, sniff, and lay on a truly organic mattress, was at Eagles’ Rest.
We drove to Lawrence several times. Diane was kind enough to let us take the mattress apart, smell it, pull on it, lay on it, and ask a hundred questions. We went home and sent emails asking more questions, all of which were answered. We were not easy customers: we wanted facts, details, proof, etc., that we were buying a completely organic mattress.
We did buy a mattress. We also used Diane's husbands' design plans to build a frame for our mattress. The mattress arrived via Fed-ex and we were able to put it together ourselves within an hour. The bed is comfortable, and variable, as we can adjust the layers to our preference.
I would recommend anyone searching for an organic mattress, to visit Diane’s shop. She will put up with your questions, and give you time without a hard sell. What more could you ask? "
