This is an enquiry from Australia. I realize you don't ship beds here, but you may be able to comment. My wife and I are both of slim build, light weight.
About seven years ago we purchased a Sealy posturepedic bed without much research, largely on brand name and advertising. Since then the foam on top has gone flat and the mattress is uncomfortable. Having been shopping around for a new mattress, we've found its like buying a magic pudding. There is a complete lack of meaningful information about mattresses.
We now want to get a properly engineered mattress, to our requirements, so we ask if this is feasible:
Sleeper's weights: 50-70 Kg.
Calico or similar pocket springs, each spring 20 cm high capable of easily compressing 10 cm.
A small amount of quality padding top and bottom so the mattress can be flipped over.
In short we are trying to create a VERY soft mattress, suitable for light weight people, where the softness is engineered in with the springs rather than layered on top with foam. Can we do this? We could probably get the bed made up in Australia if we could source good quality pocket springs. Thank you.
