A mattress for a sleigh bed

Hi, First of all, top marks for a top website!
Such a breath of fresh air to find such candid and informative content on a companies website. Who knew mattresses could be so interesting!
My question relates to matching a mattress to our kingsize sleigh bed. My primary concern is that I can't discern the thickness of the mattresses. Our bed is the classic sleigh bed design in having a shortish (for want of a better word) footer as well as the usual, taller wooden head board. To avoid the mattress being taller than the footer the mattress needs to be no more than 10-11 inches thick. Do any of your mattresses fit this remit?
If so, game on!
To give you the full requirements/info. My wife is 8 stone and I'm 13 stone. I'd say we both like a medium to firm matress. Budget, would prefer to keep it south of a grand, and hope that that would also buy me a mattress that'll last at least 10 years. I'd also really appreciate it if you could clarify for me how best to maintain a mattress of this ilk. I.e. when/if to turn...topper options...will a pocket sprung mattress literally implode if the sprogs bounce on it once or twice etc etc. Many thanks in advance!

Hi James.
Thank you for your question.
Even our cheapest mattress has a depth of about 11" which is testament to the amount of upholstery we are able to cram in.
You have to bear in mind that thin mattresses are cheap mattresses.
The mattresses in our Origins Range are about 12/13 inches deep and the mattresses in our Artisan Range are also about 12 inches deep and so will come above the footboard of your sleigh bed.
It is recommended that you place some sort of cushioning directly on to your slats as all our mattresses are full two sided and the last thing you want is for the pressure of the slats to indent the upholstery.
If we are able to assist you further, please telephone our office on 0161 437 4419 and speak to an Advisor who will be able to give you further information & guidance.
John and Ryan.
