Airsprung memory foam mattress from catalogue

A customer asked

Hi I'm not sure if you can help but I need somewhere to turn...I purchased a memory foam mattress along with the bed as a package deal from a catalogue so no money has been exchanged as yet. However, the mattress is called an Airsprung Memory Foam Comfort Mattress and on its own would cost £249 but I don't believe there's any memory foam in it at all. It doesn't spring back like it does on beds I've tried in stores. Anyway, I've left the packaging on but the company say that as it was purchased as a package and the bed has been built I am unable to return the mattress even though the packaging has not been removed. I don't know what position you are in to advise but I'd like to buy my mattress elsewhere but need to return this one first - do I have any rights to refuse to buy and return it if I don't think it's fit for purpose?

Really surprised since they originally didn’t seem very concerned but just goes to show with a little perseverance…Anyway, I have considered the points you made in your memory foam article and have decided against purchasing one again so your site has been very helpful. Thank you. .

Hi Jem,

Thank you for your question and we are  pleased to have helped in some way.

The rules of Distance Selling is quite tight and people should not be fobbed off with point blank refusal to return.

Just as a little helping hand to you and other readers it is relatively easy to put a mattress of this construction into perspective.

The specification supplied tells you that it is a 12.5g open coil spring unit with 20mm of memory foam which is very little and the specification given also points out that there are soft white polyester fillings included.

For £250 your money would be better spent buying a cheap open coil mattress and buying a decent depth memory Foam topper separately.

John and Ryan.
