Advice needed on mattress pad for rigid slats
Hi, Firstly, congratulations on your very informative website!
Regarding suitable 'cushioning' for the underside of a pocket sprung mattress on a rigid slatted base - would wool carpet, in wide strip/s as per your MDF or one larger piece, be suitable?
I'm just thinking that it's breathable (as opposed to the MDF) but a bit firmer than a duvet.
Hi Sarah,
Thank you for your question.
The carpet solution is another take on the protection of the underside of your mattress and as you say, it is breathable.
If breathability is a concern, instead of MDF you could opt for peg board, which has holes in it.
Any covering to the slats should be positioned so as to provide entire cover of the area giving a uniform surface upon which you mattress can sit.
If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact the office on 0161 437 4419.
Kind regards,
Amy.
