Hi Mike, Thanks for the info. We prefer a firm(ish) mattress, i.e. supported comfort, but not soft. I weigh 80kg and my fiancee wieghs 60kg, what Zip and Link Super King Size mattress would you suggest out of your range?
Thanks, Alaistair >
Hello again Alaistair,
At yours and your partners body weights, pocket spring tension wise you should be looking at a medium spring, this will give you both the correct support level.
| Bodyweight | Spring tension |
|---|---|
| Upto 16 Stone / 50-101kg | Medium (1.4mm) |
| 16 Stone / 101kg Upwards | Firm (1.6mm) |
| Available in Bespoke Products (Please Call) | Soft (1.2mm) |
In the Origins Range i would guide you towards the Origins pocket Reflex or the Origins Pocket Latex mattresses.
Alternatively, if you wanted more natural fibre upholstery, then the model to give the firmer feel upholstery is the Artisan Bespoke, and this again would be a medium tension spring for you both.
