Mattress for disabled chap

Hi Sue, Thank you for your question. As you suggest – a ziplink bed is the first option either on separate divan bases or utilising a Superking bedframe. Secondly, will your husband be spending more time in the bed other than sleeping? If so, then extra care has to be… Read More

Do you feel the tufting on the mattress?

Hi Lily,   Thanks for your question.   This is difficult to say definitively as comfort is very subjective. What one person feels another doesn’t. Some people are a lot more sensitive to tufting than others.   Tufting is essential to any pocket sprung mattress that’s worth it’s weight… Read More

Help on the right mattress for a big chap

Hi Kurt, Thanks for your comment. Firstly I would say look at more than 1000 springs considering you sleep mainly on your side – more springs offer more individualised support. In your case you are looking for a combination of support and comfort in equal measures – to take the… Read More

Opinion on one sided mattresses

Hi Micheal, Thanks for your comment. Apart from the general exceptions I mention for one sided mattresses (latex, memory foam) adding additional fillings as you rightly say, would not neccessarily cost the earth.

Difference between Salus 1500 mattress and Flexcell 1600 mattress

Hi Martin. Easy question – difficult answer. If the innards are exactly the same (and I cant understand why the count is different 1500 and 1600 when the FEPS are the same) then it stands to reason that the comfort level should be the same. However, the ticking as used… Read More

Origins Latex or Origins Pocket mattress?

Hi Angela. These two matts are completely different in construction and so the decision will have to be based on what comfort layer will suit you best – either latex or polyester/wool. The spring count difference 1500 or 2000 is nominal and because of your light bodyweight it will be… Read More
