Hi Alex
Currently have a Sealy Premier Divan...over 30 years old...and until recently we thought it was fairly comfortable...but we are now convinced we need a new one.
Looking for a double size...natural materials..preferably soft (if advisable)
...wife 54kg, myself 69 kg.
Would you recommend keeping the old platform top base and investing more in the mattress and topper....or compromising on the mattress and getting a new base.
Hi Mal,
Thanks for your question.
First of all, can I say how well you have done to get 30 years out of your current mattress. If the base is in good condition, there is no need to replace it and the mattresses in our Artisan range, which have natural upholstery layers can be used on a platform base, although they will feel slightly firmer than if placed on a sprung base.
The softest model in the Artisan range is the Artisan Luxury giving that luxurious sink in sensation and you would be matched with a Soft and Medium split tension to get the right level of support.
| 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) |
I hope this has answered your questions fully but if you do have any further queries please don't hesitate to contact our office on 0161 437 4419.
Kind Regards, Mike.
