Hi, Chris

Given the weight difference between you and your partner, you’re going to be battling between something that's too soft for you vs something that's too firm for your wife I’m afraid!

Given that you’ve been trying beds you’ve already managed to narrow down the search to the mattress-alternatives-comparison-models/" title="Tempur">Tempur cloud mattress you’ve already done most for the difficult work!.

You’re right that it's probably great for your wife but a bit too soft for you.

We do have a comparator to the Tempur cloud with our Hybrid 4 mattress which is a mix of memory and hybrid foam giving that cloud-like sink.

Given it's going to be really soft for you I’d ask you to have a look at the Hybrid 5 mattress which is slightly firmer a comparator usually to the Tempur sensation mattress, but is a very deep mattress which I’d argue will give your wife enough sink to allow her painful hips and back to sink without it being too firm for her. It also would give you a slightly firmer top layer making it not as soft as the cloud or Hybrid 4. It may be the best compromise for you.

I’d also advise that any foam mattress will be warmer than a traditional pocket sprung mattress; its a game of trading off the benefits and drawbacks I’m afraid.

Everyone is different with the heat of mattresses.

If you want to speak further please give us a call Chris on 0161 437 4419 .
