About Geltex in Bensons mattress

Sally asked
14th October 2014

I have been browsing your site the past month which had been really informative. I’m glad i came across it as we were very close to buying the Sealey Adelaide geltex mattress from bensons. We liked the mattress the best as it gave a medium-firm feel and was wondering if you have something similar?

Bensons told me that the geltex is 3cm (their sitejust says ”deep”!). My weight is 9 stone and my husband is 12.2, we are after a king sized mattress. Look forward to hearing from you Thanks

Hi Sally,

Thank you for your question.

Given that Sealy do not provide any details for Geltex such as its density, I can only go off the depth, making the comparison pretty difficult!

I would say that 3cm would not be considered a deep layer for foam.  We only provide foam layers in 7.5cm as anything less than this can be rendered useless given all foams can compress by up to 2cm.

It you like a medium feel then our  Hybrid 4 would give you a medium support with a softer separate topper allowing you to sink in to the topper before reaching the support from the core mattress and this would be ideal for your weight.
