Hi Carol,
Thanks for getting in touch.
You’re looking for an Extra-king zip and link mattress to achieve that size. You would need to look at our John Ryan By Design springs/" title="pocket spring">pocket spring mattresses.
Now based on your weights, you at 10 stone are on the boundary between a soft or a medium spring and your partner is on the cusp of a medium or firm spring. It depends what kind of tension you both prefer.
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) |
It could be a matching medium is best but we’d need to speak to you ideally to find this out. We would also need to know what base it is going on as a slatted base will make the artisans feel firmer than say a sprung edge base.
Out of the range, the Artisan 1500 would be the model that allows dual tensions and is in the top end of your price point at £1125 for the two mattresses without bases.
There's no models within your budget beneath this I’m afraid. If you can give us a call Carol to discuss further then we can provide some more tailored advice.
