Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What Makes Nattiluxe Beds Exceptional?
We blend traditional European craftsmanship with modern design, using only the finest natural materials like cashmere, wool, linen, cotton, silk, and premium horsehair. We handcraft our beds in specific cities of France, Slovakia, and Italy where our artisans have passed their upholstery knowledge from generation to generation. We have combined that with our mattress and bed knowledge to perfection.

2. How Can I Choose the Right Mattress Firmness ?
Choosing the right mattress firmness is crucial for a good night's sleep.

Choosing the right mattress often hinges on factors like your body weight, preferred sleeping position, and personal comfort preferences.

 

Sleep Position: Typically, individuals with a heavier body weight may find a firmer mattress more supportive, while those who are lighter might lean towards a softer mattress for comfort. As for sleeping positions, side sleepers tend to favor softer mattresses to provide cushioning for hips and shoulders, whereas those who sleep on their back or stomach might opt for a firmer mattress for better alignment and support.

Weight: Generally, individuals weighing less than 65 kg may find soft mattresses more comfortable. Those with a body weight ranging from 60 to 120 kg often prefer medium firmness for a balance of support and cushioning. Meanwhile, individuals weighing over 120 kg might opt for firm mattresses, which can offer enhanced support.

Preferences: Geographical preferences also influence mattress choice. In North-European countries, there's a tendency to choose soft to medium mattresses, while in Southern Europe, the preference shifts towards medium to firm mattresses. This is partly due to a widespread belief in Southern Europe that firmer mattresses provide better back support.

It's important to remember that these are general observations and personal preference is highly subjective. What feels comfortable and supportive to one person may not be the same for another. Therefore, while these guidelines can offer a starting point, the ultimate choice should be based on individual comfort and needs. We suggest exploring various options and considering personal sleep habits and preferences when making a mattress selection.

3. Can I Personalize My Bed?

5. Do Nattiluxe Beds Have a Trial Period?

6. Which are the Unique Benefits of Horsetail Hair in Mattresses?

Horsetail hair, known for its durability and moisture-wicking properties enhances breathability and resilience. It's incredibly breathable and high-wicking, keeping you cool and temperature-regulated during sleep. Horsehair is open-celled and ‘hollow’, making it an excellent material for moisture wicking. This property allows moisture to pass through the hollow strands rapidly, ensuring that the mattress remains cool and comfortable. Additionally, horsehair acts like millions of tiny individual springs, providing both support and softness.

7. Can the horsehair used in your beds cause allergies?

No, the horsehair used in Nattiluxe beds is unlikely to cause allergies. This conclusion is based on several factors:

1. **High-Temperature Treatment**: During processing, horsehair is subjected to high-temperature steaming. This process effectively removes proteins and bacteria that are typically the cause of allergic reactions. The high temperatures ensure that any potential allergens are eliminated, making the horsehair safe for use in bedding.

2. **Natural Fiber Properties**: Horsehair is a natural fiber that is known for its hypoallergenic properties. Unlike some synthetic materials that can harbor dust mites and other allergens, horsehair, due to its structure and processing methods, is less likely to do so.

3. **Quality Control and Ethical Sourcing**: Nattiluxe's commitment to quality and ethical sourcing further minimizes the risk of allergies. The horsehair is sourced from reputable suppliers who adhere to high standards of animal care and product processing, ensuring that the final product is of the highest quality and free from contaminants.

4. **Limited Direct Contact**: In a mattress, horsehair is typically enclosed within other layers of material. This means there is limited direct contact with the skin, which further reduces the risk of any allergic reaction.

5. **Track Record and Customer Feedback**: Historically, there have no reports of allergies caused by horsehair in our mattresses. Customer feedback and industry reviews often highlight the hypoallergenic nature of horsehair mattresses.

While it's important to note that individual sensitivities vary, and what is hypoallergenic for one person may not be for another, the evidence suggests that horsehair, as used in Nattiluxe beds, is unlikely to cause allergic reactions.
