Hi Lesley. I’m seriously perplexed as to why you find the Harrisons too firm and then say you prefer the SL open coil. To me, that sounds the same as someone preferring beefburger to Steak. But, I do accept that this can really be someone’s preference. In fact one of… Read More
Hi Tijana, To be quite frank, the manufacturers you mention Vi-Spring, Somnus and Harrison all fall into the same quality table. Harrison and Somnus are in fact the same family business with Somnus being the posher and Harrison the more mainstream. You don’t mention any model names so I am… Read More
Hi Laura, Thanks for your question. I would hazzard an educated guess that this model is made by Breasley from their Salus factory for Sleepright – so I would also investigate the Salus 2000 Memory range for comparisons. The RRP at Sleepright (stated at well over £1500)… Read More

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
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. And it is precisely this measly approach to manufacturing that to me seems so wrong. As for… Read More
Hi Chris, Thank you for your question. In order for me to recommend one of our mattresses for you, we would ideally need to know your body weights and your preferred feel. The Origins Pocket 2000 is quite firm in the spring tension with an overall… Read More
