Orion Fitted Latex Sheet Black

Product Information

But for lovebirds, beds are not just a mere resting place; it is a sacred space where all the miracles happen. And by that, we mean steaming hot sex—not just the conventional and dull humping sessions. So, it is essential that what covers it should be sensual, appealing, and orgasm-inducing. If you are looking for a material that possesses these qualities, nothing beats latex sheets in making your bedding a dream sex dungeon! Comfort is a subjective quality that varies from person to person, but we’ve tested a number of mattresses that seem to transcend comfort preferences across different sleeper types. The Birch is a prime example. This medium firm (6) latex hybrid is designed with balance and moderation in mind, resulting in a mattress that provides close cushioning without sacrificing support or responsiveness. Latex is a dense material, so it’s naturally heavy. This can be great for some people who want a pillow that won’t move around a lot, but it may be less convenient to transport around. Eco-Friendly However, a couple common reasons why someone might be interested in adding a vacbed to their play sessions include:

Thread Count:At its most basic level, the thread count is the sum of the number of vertical and horizontal threads in one square inch of fabric. In some cases, a higher thread count means a more dense and durable sheet; however, some manufacturers manipulate thread counts. Additionally, for some materials, thread count is rarely listed and it has less of an effect on the performance of the sheets. Polyester: The biggest selling point for polyester sheets is their accessible price-point. They also tend to be easier to wash and dry. That said, their performance suffers relative to other materials because they are generally less soft, less breathable, and less durable. Given this, it should come to nobody’s surprise that a wide variety of beds have been designed specifically for the purpose of having sex in them. From the vibrating “massage beds” which were once a staple of roadside motels to heart-shaped ones with equally heart-shaped pillows which usually decorate honeymoon suites or Japanese love hotels, creative minds all over the world have thought up beds which create a sensuous, adventurous atmosphere for lovers. Latex and rubber come from the same source – the sap of a rubber tree. Latex has the same inherently bouncy quality that rubber does and it’s also resilient, durable, and strong. These characteristics make it an excellent material choice for mattresses designed to be both responsive and supportive. Similarly, if you are the dominant partner, do not leave your partner inside the bed unattended and do not let them stay there for too long. It is your responsibility to keep an eye on their situation at all times and make sure that they are safe and comfortable. Abandoning them can lead to the risk of similar dangerous to those described in the previous paragraph.Latex Garments are produced from Natural Rubber Latex (NRL). NRL is an integral part of thousands of everyday consumer and healthcare items. The proteins contained within NRL can cause allergic reactions to Latex. More than 40,000 products used in homes, schools and medical settings contain latex, including common items such as: condoms, rubber bands, balloons, surgical and examination gloves, clothing elastic, etc. Latex allergy, or hypersensitivity, occurs when the body's immune system reacts to proteins found in NRL. Some individuals have specific antibodies, called IgE antibodies, that make them hypersensitive to the proteins in NRL. Although we take great care to use latex sheeting that has been ‘leached’ to a high level, to remove the proteins to a legally acceptable standard, the onus is on you the consumer to ensure that you do not have this problem prior to purchasing or wearing latex clothing. (Please note, that in over 25 years of our company selling latexwear we have never received any complaints of allergy caused by our clothing.) Latex mattresses often have robust edge support. When you sit on the side of a latex mattress, it doesn’t compress so deeply that it makes it tough to get in and out of bed. Natural latex comes from the sap of the rubber tree that is carefully extracted without harming the tree. This liquid sap is molded into a solid foam using a process called vulcanization. This involves cross-linking latex particles with sulfur using high heat and accelerators like zinc oxide. Just like most pillows, latex is available in a wide range of firmness selections depending on your individual preferences and needs. Talalay tends to be lighter while Dunlop is heavier. Loft Latex mattresses often sleep cooler than other types of beds because the material isn’t prone to heat retention. It also doesn’t compress as deeply as foam does or hug your body, which leaves more room for air to flow between your body and the mattress.

Price:You’ll want to set a budget and use that as a guidepost to filter your options. As you research, you’ll find that the range of sheet prices is enormous. There are solid values at many price-points, but you’ll get the best return on investment if you can pay a bit more for durable, high-quality sheets. Many bedding manufacturers list a thread count for their sheets and pillowcases. This measurement refers to the number of individual horizontal and vertical threads within 1 square inch of the material. The higher the thread count, the denser and heavier the material will feel. Though many plants have some sap that can produce latex, most latex is made by collecting the sap from Brazilian rubber trees. Once harvested, the sap goes through a manufacturing process that can include baking, molding, and layering. Some chemical agents are added to the latex during the curing process to prevent it from hardening. Natural latex can be expensive, so many companies offer synthetic versions produced using petrochemicals. Pure and synthetic latex look the same from the outside, but if you want to avoid chemicals, 100 percent natural is the way to go. Blends use a mix of natural and synthetic materials for a high-quality feel at a fraction Understanding the Different Types Breathable components like cotton, wool, and latex helped the mattress excel in our temperature control tests. Our heat guns detected minimal heat retention. Like many other latex hybrids, we also recommend this model if you and your partner prioritize responsiveness for sex. Thanks to latex’s naturally bouncy feel and supportive perimeter, we could move across the mattress easily without slipping near the edges.Supima Cotton: Supima cotton is the specific name for American-grown, long-staple cotton. Long-staple cotton has bigger fibers, helping Supima cotton sheets to be soft and durable. The main downside to Supima cotton is its higher price. Blended: Blended latex is made from a mix of natural and synthetic materials. Some blended versions also contain polyfoam or other materials that mimic the properties and feel of the natural form. Blended pillows are more affordable and are less likely to cause symptoms if you have an allergy. The sheet set’s natural cooling properties make it suitable if you consider yourself a “hot sleeper” or if you live in an exceptionally warm or humid place. If you prioritize eco-friendly products, this set should appeal to you. The material has received certification from the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), indicating the bamboo is sustainably grown and harvested, while the OEKO-TEX Class 1 certification ensures each item has been tested for harmful chemicals and is considered safe for all ages.

Latex hybrids tend to be some of the more expensive options on the market, but the Silk & Snow Organic maintains a competitive price-point. The mattress also boasts several certifications, making it a great choice for eco-conscious shoppers. Like many other latex mattresses, the mattress excelled in our temperature control tests. Latex’s natural breathability and steady airflow through the coil support core helped maintain a cool surface that registered minimal heat buildup. We highly recommend the mattress for couples who prioritize a responsive surface for sex. The combination of bouncy latex and coils made the bed easy to move across during our tests. The latex layers also absorb a good amount of movement and most noise, so it’s a decent choice if you share the bed with a restless sleep partner. Remember to clean the latex “sheets” after every play session using the vacuum bed. If not cleaned thoroughly, fluids such as sweat, blood, semen, urine or lubricant can cause mold or mildew to grow on the latex and render it unsafe and unusable. We recommend cleaning latex products with warm water and a gentle, unscented soap. (Soap and shampoo products geared towards babies are often a great option, as they tend to avoid using harsh chemicals).

Working Out All the Kinks in Bed

The two main types of latex foam are Dunlop and Talalay, and their difference comes down to manufacturing. Dunlop uses a more energy-efficient vulcanization method, creating a single dense piece of foam. With Talalay, the foam is expanded using a vacuum, then frozen and turned into a gel by adding carbon dioxide gas before undergoing vulcanization. A recent Bedroom Poll from the National Sleep Foundation explored the connection between fresh sheets and a good night’s rest. More than three-quarters of the survey’s respondents said they are more excited to go to bed when the sheets have a fresh scent, while 73% said freshly scented sheets make their sleep more comfortable. More than half also said sheets with a fresh scent contribute to their overall sleep experience. A solid thread count for sheets depends on the type of fabric, and the reality is that identifying an ideal thread count can be a challenge. The two softer options gently cradle the body and helped relieve pressure buildup in many of our testers, while the firmest option offered moderate cushioning for our sleepers over 230 pounds. All models performed very well in temperature regulation tests, due largely in part to the cooling properties of latex and strong ventilation through the coil core. Our testers also observed strong edge support.

Dunlop: This denser version is considered more environmentally friendly since it requires less processing. Dunlop production causes more latex to settle at the bottom for a firm, supportive base and a softer, pressure-relieving top layer. This combination works well for side sleepers. In most cases, it’s rare for a thread count to exceed 600. If you find sheets with a thread count higher than 600, there’s a good chance the brand is counting multi-ply yards. In this case, remember the high thread count doesn’t necessarily reflect a higher-end fabric. For some materials, weight is used to describe the fabric density rather than the thread count. As with thread count, these figures shouldn’t be treated as the most important determinant of quality. Body pillows are wider and longer than standard sizes. These cushions are ideal for sleepers who like to hug something or need extra support between the knees. Cost/BudgetDifferent types of sheets — based on the fabric and weave — come with distinct potential benefits and downsides. For example, long-staple cotton is soft and breathable, but it has a higher cost. Linen has excellent temperature regulation but can also be expensive, rougher, and may have a rumpled look.
