How can I improve the feel on our current mattress?

Fmax asked

hi, we recently moved house and purchased a sprung mattress for the spare room. problem is we didn’t know how uncomfortable it was until my mum came to stay and complained she couldn’t sleep all night and her body ached for the next few days!

the mattress and bed was bought from wilkinsons as a bundle offer. the mattress is a ‘bella deluxe’ and the bed is the ‘prado’ faux leather double bed with sprung wooden slats. the bed is quite bouncy and it feels like you might fall off the edge if you turn over!

is there any way to make the bed more comfortable and not feel like you sleeping on a bag of spanners?!

any help would be appreciated. thanks. .

Hi Fmax,

Thank you for your question.

Bag of spanners!   I like it.

On looking at the specifications of this mattress, all you are practically sleeping on is the cage spring unit with a minimal amount of wadding.

What you have to do now is add you own wadding in the form of a topper.  I would recommend looking for a topper that is at least 7.5cm thick in order to give extra comfort layers and which will hopefully make the mattress a lot more comfortable.  Mattress toppers are available from most High Street Stores.   Just set a budget and like mattresses get the best your money can get.

Hope this helps.
