A customer asked

Hi, I am moving from rented accommodation to a new house and am bed hunting. I am 8 stone and my husband is 17 stone and 6ft 6. I have found latex beds more comfortable as I have curvature of the spine, would these be suitable for my husband?

Thanks .

Hi Eve.

As curvature of the spine affects people in varying degrees it will be best to speak with us direct in order for us to find out what exactly your own personal requirements are.

Bodyweight Spring tension
Upto 16 Stone / 50-101kg Medium (1.4mm)
16 Stone / 101kg Upwards Firm (1.6mm)
Available in Bespoke Products (Please Call) Soft (1.2mm)

I am assuming you are looking for a product that has a high degree of soft upholstery that is also supportive and with that in mind my initial inkling would indeed be latex.

Your husband also comes with a special set of requirements.

The weight difference between the two of you indicates quite strongly that you will need a ziplink set with a firmer support for him and a lesser support for you.

We can do this to some extent on the Origins Latex 1500 (we can have your husbands side made with a 2000 spring count).

One thing to point out, and we will discuss this further when we speak, is that the level of upholstery in The Origins latex is quite high at 8cm deep (6cm Latex and 2cm Reflex) sitting directly above the spring unit.

You at 8st will barely be compressing these layers enough to utilise the spring unit which means you will be getting comfort and support from just the primary layers - and you may find this mattress to be on the firm side.

Your husband will find this build just right.

John and Ryan.
