Dear John, I have found your site immensely helpful and informative but have a couple of questions: I have had a superking pocket sprung mattress for 20 years ( I know, scandalous for not having changed it earlier!!) but have loved it as it has given great support and does not ever get hot like some mattresses I have slept on.
However it now needs replacing and due to space requirements in new house I have decided to go for a zip and link option.
I found the comments advice regarding the JL mattress helpful but wonder if you could give advice on the ‘heat’ properties of the Origins 2000 as I note that the contents are primarily synthetic and foam is used.

Hi Sarah.
All mattresses in this price range and a large percentage above this price range will contain a fair element of polyester as the primary wadding component.
To enhance this layer further, additional wadding components are often added such as wool, cotton, memory foam, latex and so on and therefore the price increases.
It really is not possible to find a mattress below £800 which uses 100% natural fibres.
The foam in the mattresses are used as a bridging layer above the insulator pad to prevent the polyester above compressing prematurely.

There will be no undue heat element in this mattress as the foam layer is beneath the polyester and the wool layer.
Hope this helps.
