Advice on which mattress to choose

Hello
I am looking to buy one of your mattresses and I was wondering if you could steer me in the right direction of which one you think would suit us best.
My wife is 10.5 stone and I am about 14 stone. We currently have a super king size memory foam mattress which is almost seven years old. So we definitely have two quite severe dips where we sleep now and it needs replacing.
We went for a memory foam mattress as our bedroom is in the roof so access is a bit restricted and there was no problem folding it. However we would like to return to springs/" title="pocket spring">pocket spring so are interested in your zip and link solution as a way around the access problems.
We both like a firm mattress, although appreciate the use of a soft topper, so possibly a down topper on a firm mattress may be the ideal solution for us. What we really dislike though is the soft marshmallowy feel of say a Tempur mattress where you sink into the mattress and don't feel you can move, so I am not sure a latex topper would be what we want - or would it? Your advice would be appreciated.
Our bed base is a standard 4 drawer divan and seems fine, so we would like to continue to utilize this if possible and put the money towards the mattress cost.
So in summary we are looking for a super king zip and link mattress with a topper utilising our existing base.
I have looked at your guidance on the firmness rating on your web site and the Artisan Bespoke would seem to be then best choice as it is the firmest - although at £2,300 that is a bit above my budget which is ideally around £1,750 max including the topper - although `I could stretch to more if it was the only option.
So I was wondering how much softer the Artisan 1500 or the Artisan tailored pocket 2000 were to see if they were an option. If the Artisan Bespoke is the only option I would be happy to consider one from the outlet store although even a Grade C wouldn't allow much left in the budget for a topper.
So your guidance would be very much appreciated and I look forwards to hearing from you.
Kind regards
Andrew Mcneil
