Harrison Portofino comparisons?

Hi asked

13th July 2014

My husband and I have been looking for a new mattress for some time and have finally found one which we both find comfortable – It’s a Harrison, Portofino, 4200 King size, Medium.

Hubby weighs 14 stone and I’m 12 stone.

However, we are very interested in your range of mattresses and I’d be grateful if you could let me know if you have an equivalent to the one we’ve seen.

Hi,

 

Thank you for your enquiry on our website.   Unfortunately, due to the fact that Harrisons do not disclose the GSM (grams per square metre) details in respect of their fillings, we are unable to advise on a comparable mattress in our range.  The large spring count in the Harrisons mattress is obtained by including layers of smaller springs.

The mattress you have seen is also one-sided, which will reduce the lifespan considerably when compared to a double-sided mattress, which can be turned and rotated.  All of the mattresses in our Artisan range are double-sided and the exact breakdown of fillings for each is provided in the description.

 

At the body weights you have supplied you both require a medium spring tension to give you the correct level of support.

I hope this was helpful and if you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact the office 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

Michaela.
