adjustable bed mattress

Hello,I'd appreciate some advice on a replacement mattress for my mother's adjustable bed. She is not very mobile and so sits on the edge of the bed for prolonged periods, pushes off it to stand, and tends to drop down onto it when getting in. Consequently it gets heavy wear on in the middle of one side and from the bend when she sits up in bed. The mattress needs to be fairly firm to give her the support she needs when getting up (pushing off). Any suggestions as to what type of mattress would suit her.
Hi Stephen,
Thank you for your question.
The only mattresses in our range which are suitable to use on an adjustable bed, are our Fusion 5 and Fusion 6 mattresses.
Both these mattresses are made of 100% natural Latex and can be turned and rotated just the same as a traditional pocket sprung mattress. This ensures that the mattress settles evenly.
It would depend on your mother's body weight as to which of the mattresses she should have bearing in mind that the Fusion 5 will give a medium support for body weights of between 8st - 14st and the Fusion 6 will give a firm support for body weights of between 13st - 16st.

Both of these mattresses need to go onto a solid base due to the fact that they are made of a solid core latex.
I hope the above is of assistance to you but please do not hesitate to contact me should you require any further information - 0161 437 4419
