Hi, I am looking to replace my old memory Maxicool 50 contour mattress, we have had it for over 5 years now but really it started sagging after 2 years, plus it makes my husband really hot.
I am 5'4 and 7.7 stone, my husband is 6'2 and 14 stone. I additionally, have back problems. I was initially considering the pillow top however, abandoned the idea having read the reviewed.
Hi Aggie,
Memory foam is notorious for heat retention and this is the reason most people who purchase mattresses with this as a component, opt for a change in the short term. You are quite right to steer clear of pillow topped mattresses. Because there is a substantial weight differential between you, I would suggest a split tension mattress, soft/medium.
| 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) |
Our Artisan range is best suited to this split tension scenario, however, this can only be achieved in a king size and above.
Your sleeping habits/personal preference will then determine how you would like the mattress to feel in the comfort layers. This is where you will achieve the feel you are looking for (soft/medium/firm). Do you know if you have a preference for a soft, medium or firm?
If you do not, I would advise to go out and try the;
Vispring Devonshire - Soft in upper layers - Comparable with the Artisan Luxury
Vispring Regal Superb - True medium in upper layers - Comparable with Artisan Bespoke 004
Vispring Herald - Firm in the upper layers - Comparable with the Artisan Bespoke
I hope that helps and if you have any further questions please get back in touch on 0161 437 4419 or [email protected].
