Can you advise on Feather and Black Owen mattress?

Shrey asked
18th January 2012

Looking for a new mattress and almost bought a Feather & Black Owen tension 8, on Sunday but wanted to do a little more research first and then came across your site.

Would now like to discuss the artisans natural and also the bespoke mattress you offer.

I am 12.5 st and wife is 8.5 I seem to be most comfortable on a firmer matress hence the F&B number 8 tension.

The mattress from F&B is on offer for a few days more only so would appreciate a call ASAP if possible to discuss my needs.

Thanks.

Shrey.

Hi Shrey,

 

Thank you for your question.  At the body weights, you have given we would recommend a dual mattress-guide/” title=”spring”>spring mattress, either a one piece or zip and link ( only available in King Size and above),  one half medium for yourself and one half soft for your wife.  Spring tension is based solely on your body weights to give you the correct support.

 

BodyweightSpring tension
Upto 16 Stone / 50-101kgMedium (1.4mm)
16 Stone / 101kg UpwardsFirm (1.6mm)
Available in Bespoke Products (Please Call)Soft (1.2mm)

 

Artisan Bespoke

 

 

If your preference is a firm mattress, unless you are a side sleeper, you should look to upholstery layers to give you that firm feel, not the spring tension.  The Artisan Bespoke is the firmest in the comfort layers of the Artisan range whereas the Artisan Naturals is the true medium of the range and has a medium feel in the upholstery layers.  Both of these mattresses have the Calico Pocket Springs and a 10 year guarantee.

 

The Feather & Black Owen is manufactured be Harrisons so you may want to compare with some of their other models.

 

If you would like to discuss this or anything else please call our friendly team on 0161 437 4419.  Our office hours are 8 am – 8 pm Monday to Friday and 10 am – 4 pm Saturday and Sunday.

 

Kind Regards
