Help on choosing the right mattress

A customer asked

Hi Me and the Mrs are currently looking to replace our 10 year old pocket spring mattress. Both the Mrs and myself have started experiencing shoulder pain when we wake up in the morning. In my case i have also started experiencing some lower back pain on waking up. The mattress has also started sagging on my end. Based on this evidence we have decided that its time to replace our mattress. I am 5 feet 7 inches tall and weigh about 12.1 stone. The Mrs is 5 feet tall and weighs about 8.2 stone. We value comfort above all else and are willing to pay for it( within reason of course. ) . I fear that my lower back pain might become a bit chronic as I get older ( early 40s currently ) so would like a mattress that helps me there. While researching, came across your wonderful website but to be honest am feeling a bit overwhelmed by all the information!

Polyester, wool, memory foam, latex, all these with or without coiled springs... The combinations seem endless. I was hoping that based on my requirements described above, you would be able to suggest the right kind of mattress that would not only last and also provide us a decent night's sleep every night. Thanks. >

Hi Rohit,

It sounds like your current mattress is not providing the support required and this may be because the weight differential between you is such that a single tension mattress is never going to be suitable.

I know this is an assumption as you have not advised the tension of your current mattress.

I note that you are willing to pay for comfort, within reason, and so would suggest that you look at our Artisan range as mattresses in this range from king size upwards can be made with a split tension so that you both get the desired feel as shown by the table below.

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)

These mattresses represent excellent value for money and we are sure that there is no such mattress in the marketplace to match on quality, content and price.

If you would like further advice regarding the suitability of any of this range, please contact our office number.

Kind regards
