–Covered in a high quantity cotton rich fabric
–Traditional tufted finish

I stupidly purchased from Benson's a few months ago, it turned out to be faulty and they're refusing to refund me, so I'm having to cut my losses and start again. £1500 down the drain! I wish I knew about you before!
I now only have a budget of £600, which is why I was looking at the Next mattress, as it's only £475 for a King Size, and is turntable (as you suggest is always best).

The one I had from Benson's was a firm tension and after just one night (I persevered for 45 days!) I was in complete agony: shooting pains in my shoulder, hip and thighs. It was obviously far too firm.

I'm a side sleeper, it's just me in the bed, and I'm 5ft 6 and weigh 8st 10lbs.

I've tried a memory foam mattress and I get far too hot.

Please help as I've had 5 months of mattress stress, caused by the crooks at Benson's. They eventually sent out a Fira agent and have agreed the mattress is faulty, but refuse to refund me, they will only swap it for a like-for-like... which is far too firm (the salesman pushed me to get a firm!!). All I can do now is accept the exchange, then sell it on eBay, probably for less than £500 (I paid £1499), hence why my budget is now dramatically reduced.

I'm so upset and stressed with it all. All I wanted was a nice comfy mattress, as I have insomnia, and was hoping it would help me... it's done the complete opposite! :-(
