Looking for new mattress

Hi I've been doing a lot of research and keep coming back to your helpful site! Our king size mattress has done us well for many years but we've now made the decision to replace it. It's on a good divan base. We are a middle aged couple (56 and 59) in good health, my husband weighs 12 and a half stone, I weigh 10 and a half. We both prefer a firm mattress. He's a back sleeper and can sleep anywhere. I'm a side sleeper and have been having problems sleeping since hitting the dreaded menopause last year - night sweats and also hip pain waking me up. I've looked at your Origins 1500 and Artisan 1500 but can't decide which one. Either way my husband says he would prefer firm tension, but would this be too much firmness for me? Any advice appreciated!

Hi Marie,

Whilst I appreciate you both prefer a firmer feel mattress, at your body weights, I would suggest a medium spring tension as anything firmer is likely to aggravate any comfort issues you are currently experiencing.

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)

The Origins Pocket 1500 has synthetic upholstery and will provide an overall medium feel whereas the Artisan 1500 has around a 50/50 split in natural and synthetic upholstery layers and can be supplied with either soft, medium or firm springs, although as I have said, I would suggest a medium tension for you both.

I would suggest that, before placing an order, you call our office for more specific advice as to suitability of these or any other products in our ranges.

Kind Regards Gary
