Origins range 4 ft
Is the mattress heavy - I had one where I struggled to lift it to tuck the sheet under. I am looking for a bed for our son who is 6 ft and weighs about 14 stone - it has to be comfortable because he has rheumatoid arthritis. what do you suggest?
Hi Jill,
Thank you for your enquiry.
We have a table below showing the weights of all our mattresses; although small double is not mentioned, each model in a 4FT size is approximately 3-5kg lighter than the standard double.

In your particular case, we would suggest that you ought to be looking at a medium tension mattress with softer top layers so as not to aggravate your son's arthritis.
Please view the Origins Comfort 1000, which has a standard medium tension spring unit with softer upholstery layers, which we feel will be best suited to your son.
We trust that this helps but if you require any further advice or guidance please call our office on 0161 437 4419.
Kind Regards, Lee.
