Carpetright Icon Prestige mattress questions

Ali asked
13th February 2013

Hi guys What a find this website has been for me in my mind boggled state in choosing a mattress. My last one lasted 25 years so this is a big decision for me!

I have found the Icon 2000 Prestige (at £500 excess stock) in Carpet Right to be the most comfortable mattress so far, closely followed by the Sealy Auckland (£700) . I am buying my ottoman bed, slatted base online and the same website sells a Breasley Flexcell Pocket Cocona for £339 which looks to be a similar mattress … aaaaaaaaargh!

Your thoughts about whether these are equivalent particularly as I can’t actually try the online one or whether you have something on your own site which would be even better would be very welcome. Just to add a little pressure on myself I would like to order this week!!!

Thanks for a great website which I have already recommended to several friends Ali .

Hi Ali,

 

Thank you for your question.

 

The mattress in Carpetright is Basically a 2000 pocket sprung mattress with 7.5cm of memory foam.

The Breasley Flexcell Pocket Cocona is 1600 Pocket Springs with 7cm of Memory Foam.

The difference in spring count (400) is quite nominal.

 

We do not sell memory foam mattresses that also have pocket springs but we do have traditional pocket sprung mattresses in our Origins Range.  As you seem to prefer the feel of foam, we do have our Origins Pocket Latex 1500 which has two layers of Talalay Latex on top of pocket springs. This mattress will mould to your body shapes the same as it would do with foam.   I would however need to know the body weights of the people who will be sleeping on the mattress in order to make sure that this mattress would be suitable.

 

Your bodyweightThis will feel
Under 10 Stone / 63kgVery Firm
10-12 Stone / 63-76kgFirm to Medium
12-14 Stone / 76-88kgMedium to Firm
14-16 Stone / 88-101kgMedium
16-18 Stone / 101-114kgMedium to Soft
18 Stone / 114kg PlusPlease call for advice
