Hi Carol,

Thank you for your question.

I can appreciate the short on time sentiment this time of year going into the new year always feels like there's so much to do all of a sudden after the Christmas holidays!  I'll try and keep my advice simple to assist.

Cooler Mattresses:For a reduced heat mattress I'd look at our Fusion 3, which is 100% Natural Latex, far cooler than memory foam.  It still will retain some heat in warm weather though.  If you're really wanting to avoid all heat retention then have a look at our Artisan Naturals in a medium tension.  This will feel slightly firmer than the fusion and wont have the progressive sink you're probably used to with memory foam.  If the Naturals is above the budget have a look at the Origins 1500 instead though this is primarily synthetic fibres compared to the Natural fibre of the Artisan range.

Collection of old mattresses:  Our courier can sometimes offer collection.  We ourselves can't guarantee it as it depends on the space they have on their vans once they have delivered etc.  We can however provide you with their contact numbers to arrange and discuss.  They can usually offer this for a small fee of £50.  Alternatively some councils offer a bulky item collection service either free or for a small fee. See here for more details.

Bases with drawers:  Please have a look at our base pages here for the drawer configuration and options.  There are also fabric selections to view as well.

Any problems please call us on 0161 437 4419

Kind regards Julie
