Best mattress for 18 stone + with lower back pain
Please can you tell me what mattress you would recommend for someone who is over 18 stone and has lower back pain. I have read an article on your site saying that the latex fusion is the better mattress but what one specifically?
Thank you
Hi Amanda,
Thanks for getting in touch.
We have a specialist range of mattresses for people over 18 stone called our Resilience range. These are specifically made to provide support to over 18 stone sleepers, which is the weight where most mattresses finish giving support. We have a detailed article on why mattresses for the over 18 stone category need to be fundamentally different to regular pocket sprung mattresses.
Our Resilience range mattresses are two sided and have separate toppers which can also be turned which helps extend the life of the mattress. The Latex topped resilience gives both a soft sink in the top layer but medium support. The issue with normal mattresses is that when you reach 18 stone plus the spring and components simply aren't designed to take that weight. That is why we have created a specialist mattress that can. It also means it will last longer, won't dip or sag like regular mattresses will with that weight range.
