Firmness, gauge or count?

Hi again Veronique. A bit confusing this: Are you sure it was a pocket sprung mattress you purchased? 13.5g refers to the softest of the cage sprung units. 12.5g refers to the firmest of cage sprung units. I have a gut feeling the mattress you purchased was a cage sprung… Read More

Delivery problems
