Backache and new mattress

Hi Karen. From what I glean from your comment, all signs indicate that it is indeed your mattress that is giving you grief. The most crucial aspect of this is your respective bodyweights which I need to narrow down the choice. BodyweightSpring tension Upto 16 Stone / 50-101kgMedium (1.4mm) 16… Read More

January Sales and beds?

Hi Jen.   Thank you for your enquiry. Cancel immediately. You are rushing into this, maybe because at sale price, it seems you are getting a good deal, and your money can be spent more wisely.   What really annoys me is that The Whitby (£799. Kingsize: January 2013)… Read More

Replacing mattress after 15 years

Hi Debbie. Remove your mattress and examine the base to see how good a condition it actually is in. I am assuming it will be a sprung edged base and the most obvious fault will be seeing either spring shapes protruding or dips where the springs may have collapsed. Read More

What mattress for Fibromalgia sufferer?

Hi Fiona. It is your weight that I would seriously bear in mind regarding your purchase. In the majority of cases support and comfort should go hand in hand. For you, support becomes secondary, and it is the comfort level (upholstery) that becomes the important factor – particularly when you… Read More

Dual tension mattress required

At your body weights, you really do not need to have a dual tension mattress as you both actually require a medium spring tension which will give you both the correct support.

Which mattress from Feather and Black or Hypnos

Hi Cax. Thanks for your question. I’m not particularly sure which mattress from feather and Black you are referring to (maybe The Chaucer) but really it does not matter. Personally, I would think the F&B one would be the better option (I assume quite highly that it would be a… Read More
