It all started in 1964. Mr. Kraus started a company, Electropedic, that made, sold and delivered adjustable beds through Electropedic Adjustable Bed Stores. 1987, Henry Kraus was on a business and pleasure trip through Europe. In Switzerland, he stayed at a very charming boutique hotel.  Mr. Kraus had one of the best night's sleep he ever had; and wondered why the bed he slept on was so comfortable.  What was it made of?  Mr. Kraus woke up feeling rejuvenated and free of his regular back ache.  (Mr. Kraus had back surgery about 20 years earlier).  He made a decision to spend another night. Is this mattress truly a  "wonder mattress"? He hoped to get an answer to that inquiry. Again, he woke up rejuvenated and pain-free.  Mr. Kraus found out that he was sleeping on a "Latex Mattress" which happened to be quite common in Europe. He made a decision to buy one on his return to America, and when he got home, he found out that Sears was a proud seller of Latex Mattresses.  Henry Kraus decided to become the manufacturer of Latex Mattresses for his Electropedic Beds.  THE ULTIMATE IN COMFORT became the new motto of Electropedic Adjustable Beds.  Many improvements and innovations have been made.  Today, Latexpedic proclaims to be "the best mattress in the World!".  We have 3 models:  7" Latex Mattress, 9" Latex Mattress and the 11" THE ULTIMATE Latex Mattress.  It really doesn't get any better.  It really doesn't.
