Choice of three mattresses to use on solid base

Sarah asked
12th January 2017

Hi there
We are currently looking at two mattresses to go on our existing solid base.
My partner weighs just under 100kg and I weigh 60kg. We have agreed on a medium firmness and we are looking at Vispring Wembury Superb bedstead mattress, and Hypnos Deluxe.
Looking at these two and their properties – do you have something similar that would give the same medium support on a solid base?
Thanks
Sarah

Hi Sarah,

Thank you for your enquiry.

The Vi-Spring Wembury is made exclusively for John Lewis and the published details of construction and upholstery in terms of GSM (grams per square metre) are limited, making any direct comparison impossible. The same applies to the Hypnos product, although we do not know if this is an exclusive model or not.

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

Given your particular body weights, we would suggest that a medium spring tension would be most appropriate, although if using a solid base, this will make any mattress placed on it feel slightly firmer, so before deciding upon the tension, it may be best to discuss this with our office. Our Artisan range contains some models which are similar to some of the Vi-Spring models in terms of feel only and we have provided those details here. The mattresses in this range all contain natural upholstery and can have the spring tension selected to suit. If you were to decide upon a split tension, medium for your husband and soft for you, these are only available in king size and above.

 

Artisan Bespoke 004 mattress

Please view the best selling product in that range, the Artisan Naturals and the Artisan Bespoke 004, both of which provide a similar feel with the Naturals having 85% natural upholstery, whereas the 004 has 100%. We trust that this helps, but if you need to discuss your requirements, please call our officer on 0161 437 4419.

Kind Regards.
