Hi We need to replace our king size mattress and I want to ensure the new one is as good or better than our current one as it has really helped with my back problems. Our mattress is: Sprung Slumber Prima 2000 & states: 2000 hand nested pocket springs enhanced by 2 rows of traditional hand side stitching, upholstered with luxury mixed white fibres & Reflex foam. Can you recommend a mattress and give me a price guide please?
By the way I have never come across such a well informed, helpful and honest site as yours... Well Done!

Hi Julie,
Thanks for your question and your kind words about the website.
Sprung Slumber is a brand from Relyon / Steinhoff and this seems to be a model made for a particular store but we can't find any information other than that.
The fillings of Mixed white fibre and reflex foam indicates it is not a mid - top of range model although the 2 rows of hand side stitching points to a well finished mattress.
With ourselves, I would hazard a guess that our Our Origins Pocket Reflex 1000 is our closest model that we ourselves retail but without the hand side stitching. It is also based on a 1000 spring unit that will support medium body weights (Usually between 9 and 17st) rather than a 2000 spring unit. Our Origins Pocket Reflex 1000 has a firm upholstery that accommodates a wide range of body weights but we do receive a lot of feedback that it's very comfortable at the same time.

Please see below for our guidelines on what we recommend spending on mattresses;
| How much to spend on a double mattress? | What can I expect for my money? |
|---|---|
| Under £500 | Will not get you much at best a 13.5 gauge open coil/cage sprung with a thin polyester layer or a solid foam mattress. |
| £500 | Entry level spunbond springs with some form of synthetic upholstery. Usually one sided mattresses. |
| £750 | The beginnings of a basic pocket springs unit with 800 – 1000 count. No substantial amount of filling other than foams and synthetic materials. Two sided models. |
| £1000 | Should get you away from most low ranges and into the mid-range pocket spring models. |
| £1250 | Should get you a decent pocket sprung mattress with some Natural Fibre content. |
| £1500 | Should get you many manufacturers mid-range models with Natural Fibres |
| £1500-£2000 | Should get you a Hand Made primarily Natural Fibre Quality Mattress |
| £2000+ | You should expect 100% Natural Fibres and Traditional Hand Made Construction Method. |
| £5000+ | A Bespoke Hand Made Sleep System, High-end Spring Units & Featuring the Worlds Most Luxurious Natural Fibres. |
However, this will give you a start for comparison.
