Hi. we currently sleep on a slatted base bed frame with aSleepeezee 1200 spring with memory foam on top layer which I think was classed as Medium or Medium Firm when we bought it, I at 5' 10" and 15st find this mattress too soft but my wife at 5' 2" and 10 st 11 and a half pound (she insisted I didn't round up) finds it comfortable. My question is would the Fusion 5 be firm enough for me yet soft enough for my wife ? and if it is firm enough will it stay firm enough as the mattress we have has got progressively softer over time making it uncomfortable for me at my 15st weight
Hi Nathan,
Thank you for your enquiry.
With your particular body weights, we would recommend a medium spring tension/feel mattress. The Fusion 5 will provide you both with a medium feel and as it is natural latex there is limited deterioration in the feel over time.
If you are placing this mattress on a slatted base, we would suggest placing some form of barrier between the mattress and the slats. If the slats are less than 2 inches apart, an old duvet or thick blanket will be sufficient, if they are wider apart, we would suggest placing thin (3-5mm) MDF over the slats. This will provide the double sided mattress with a uniform surface upon which to sit and prevent ridging occurring as a result of the mattress dipping into the gaps between the slats.
We do not make any products which are similar to the Sleepeezee product you refer to and do not make memory foam mattresses for the reasons detailed in the attached article.
We trust that the above helps, but if you require any further advice or guidance, please call our office on 0161 437 4419 and speak with one of our advisors.
Kind Regards.
