Hi, again Jon. As you have probably read throughout this site, unless you are looking at premium manufacturers such as Savoir Beds, Marshall and Stewart, Hastens, Vi-Spring etc, it is practically pointless even to consider buying a mattress based on brand alone.

Hi Lisa and Andrew. Firstly regards your choice of base: I am of the mind that design and look of your bedroom should not be completely influenced by what is deemed ‘right’ for your mattress. I also have a sleigh bed frame used with a pocket sprung mattress. The… Read More
Hi Richard, So glad this topic has been vindicated by someone in the trade. A research paper this week from Price Waterhouse Coopers has shown that in the last week of June (2012) 73% of stores were advertising Special Offers. This was up from 40% three years ago. Like you… Read More
