Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks for getting in touch with us.

Sorry to hear your current mattress is causing you some pain and issues.

The issues you will face given your weight is that standard mattress manufacturers and retailer don’t cater to sleepers over 18-20 stone.

In fact most mattresses are only guaranteed up to 18 stone, so if it develops a fault the manufacturer will claim that being over this weight has caused the issue.

Annoying isn’t it?

For people over 18 stone theres a different set of mattress manufacture rules to follow.

Most retailers will simply point you to the firmest most solid mattress going with little regard for comfort or the top layers, which at any weight are vital.

You need a mix of adequate support, thats forgiving, not simply solid as a rock and some top comfort layer to counter to your body and relieve pressure.

We have our resilience mattress range which as you point out is a medium tension.

We have designed these to be robust enough to withstand higher weight tolerances without them collapsing or failing as a standard mattress would do.

We use resilient reflex foams and use varying tensions to give both support and comfort.

They are also two sided so you can turn and extend the life of your mattress.

What we always advise against is a rock solid mattress at any weight.

You may as well sleep on the floor to get this feel and in reality making a mattress like this exacerbates back problems over time.

A medium feel will still be supportive but will allow you to find your own comfortable spot.

We do a resilience with a latex topper giving the feel of latex but with the support you need.

No latex will be supportive enough on its own for your weight I’m afraid and would just be an expensive waste of your money.

If you want to discuss further please give us a call on 0161 437 4419.

Kind Regards Gary
