Hi Mary,

Thank you for your question.

As you have differing body weights, your husband requires a firm spring and you require a soft spring.  The springs in a mattress are there to support you and that support is dictated by body weight.

As you also suffer from motion transfer, I would recommend a Zip & Link mattress which are two separate mattresses that are zipped together.  This will then eliminate any motion transfer and therefore you should not feel your husband moving about.   We can also make a Zip & Link mattress with a soft spring on one side and a firm spring on the other side.

In order to recommend the right Zip & Link mattress for you that will give you both comfort and support, we would need to know how you prefer a mattress to feel from the upholstery layers which we call the comfort layers.  These are all the fillings which are on top of the springs.

Could you please telephone our office on 0161 437 4419 in order to discuss your full requirements whereupon we will be able to recommend a mattress for you.

Kind regards Julie
