Questions about Homebase memory foam mattress

A customer asked

Hi I have just purchased the mattress detailed below for £720 from Homebase but i'm not sure if it is of any good quality. I can still cancel my order and i'm quite tempted to do so as i have seen contradicting reviews about memory foams. I have never used one so i'm unsure. I weight about 54kg and my husband about 85kg. I'm mainly worried about sinking in the mattress and rolling onto each other after some time. Any thoughts?

Or alternatives?

And who are Posturewise?

i cant find any details about them!

Hi Tan.

Posture wise is a brand used by Argos and Homebase (sister companies). We are not aware who actually produces these. Flaws in the description begs the questions as to the actual quantity of memory foam used - could be one inch - could be three inches - Who Knows? The additional information of "turn mattress regularly" is a nonsense as memory foam mattresses are not usually turnable. perhaps this model is two-sided! Doubtful though. Neither does it give any indication of the number of pocket springs used (if any) the description is so vague we wonder how you actually come to the decision to purchase. I want to draw your attention to the Posturezone Pocket Impression 1200 (Argos). On the 13th / 18th December it was retailing at £999 for the kingsize. On the 31st December (till now) it is £329.99 with a WAS price of £999. The price you have paid (I see it as £799,99 - 28th Jan 2012) seems very overpriced and I would hazard a guess that shortly this may be reduced in order to show a WAS price of £799.99.

I would say that our Origins Pocket latex is a far better mattress for the money than this particular model. This tailored to your body weight would provide you with the right comfort levels.

Hope this helps.
