I thought I saw a post in the last few days, someone found 4" foam for something like $37. Now I can't find it. Help anyone?
Thanks everyone, have a safe & healthy New Year!

I'm not sure which post you are referring to but there is a list of foam suppliers in the LINK section. I have seen some on Amazon. but do your research to make sure you are getting what you need and want as far as density and resilience.

Damm, I have to agree with SusieQ............all foam is not created equal, you pretty much pay for what you get.
Foamonline.com is a company that I have used in the past, and was very happy with their product. They vacuum wrap the mattress and it comes UPS, in a small box, it takes "a couple of days" to reach it's full size.

I would also suggest giving it a couple of days because of offgassing. Anybody who has tried to sleep on new memory foam knows what I mean.  John, What kind of foam would you recommend from Foamline.com? They have several options. I thought it was all more or less memory foam.  |

The other reason you want to wait a few days after the foam is unwrapped, is if you need to trim to size, or radius a corner. You only want to cut it one time, and have it remain the same size.
