Hi Lynn,

When it comes to purchasing a new mattress, my advice would be spend as much as you are able.

Bargains on-line very rarely turn out to be what they appear, and it could just be false economy to buy one, as you may need to replace it in the short term.

Given your body weights, I would suggest that you opt for a medium feel.

I would avoid memory foam because of it’s heat retaining qualities.

Your slatted base will make a medium tension mattress feel slightly firmer.

Please view our Origins Pocket 1500 mattress and call our office on 0161 437 4419 for more specific advice as to the suitability of this product for you.

Kind Regards Gary
