Firmness of a mattress
Hi I am 63 5' 8" tall & weigh 11 stone.
I am after a new mattress. Can I go for ultra soft or can you advise.
Thank you
Hi Ian,
The primary consideration when recommending a spring tension to an individual is their body weight. This is because weight has a direct effect of the performance of the upholstery, but directly the spring.
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) |
Your body weight places you in the medium tension bracket and if you went for ultra soft, the support provided will not be sufficient for your weight and is likely to result in disrupted sleep.
I trust that this is of help to you, but if you require anything further, please call our office on 0161 437 4419.
Kind Regards Gary
