Can we have dual tension springs in our mattress?

Hi Mary.

You can buy a mattress with dual tension springs.

In our range this option starts at The Artisan 1500.

However, I would be inclined to get the right spring tension for your bodyweights and not what you think your preferences are - although these will be taken into account.

The second thing to note is that there is no such thing as a medium feel mattress - unless the users bodyweight is taken into consideration [Read Here] ; It is the spring tension / gauge that determines the support and the associated upholstery also has an overall effect of the firmness of the mattress.

Your slatted base should not really be a cause for concern but care should be taken to create a flatter platform for the mattress.

Mattress Toppers or Mattress Protectors are absolutely essential for many reasons, and should be purchased based on personal preference.

In your case you like a firmer feel (which does not mean rock hard) and so I would be inclined to go down the mattress protector route.

Prior to purchase, you can experiment with your current duvets, in order to see how the addition of a separate layer of upholstery feels.

Hope this helps.

Kind Regards Gary
