What kind of slats should I choose?

Hi John,

Great question. It really depends upon what type of feel is required from the mattress, obviously, sprung slats will provide more give, however, the solid slats will make any mattress feel firmer.

We would ideally need to know your bodyweight and height before advising on which mattress will work best. Have a look at our Artisan Naturals though as a good starting point!

With any slatted base, dependent upon the gap between the slats, it may be necessary to place a barrier between the slats and the mattress to avoid the mattress ridging.

Sometimes, the barrier may need to be 2-3mm of MDF, which on a sprung slatted base, will firm up the mattress.

If you require any assistance with our products please give the office a call on 0161 437 4419

I trust that this helps
