Laura Asley eversham mattress

Wan asked
1st December 2012

Hi I’m trying to find a replacement double mattress for my 25 yr old pine bed (which has slats and spaces around 4″ wide). The Laura Ashley sale is now on and I am considering their Quennsbury or Eversham mattresses as they are within my price range. However, I am unable to find out who manufactures their mattresses and don’t know they are any good. Can you advise please – are they a good buy for £300 – 350 and if so, which one?

Do I need to save for a new bed base too given that your site recommends that slats of 4″ are too wide. I would appreciate any advice. Many thanks. Wan. .

Hi Wan.

When your budget is in this region you do not have much of a choice.

The closest we have as a direct comparison is our Origins Pocket Reflex nut at £520.00 for a double it is over your budget.

The Origins Pocket Reflex is the firmer of our starter range. This pocket-sprung hand made mattress gives a medium support with firmer top layers; the excellent ‘all rounder’.

 

Origins Reflex
1750gsm Very soft Polyester
2One inch reflex foam layer
3270gsm Polyester
4One inch reflex foam layer
51000 Spun Bond Pocket Springs

The Reflex is a full two sided mattress and with an educated guess contains far more filling than the Laura Ashley Queensbury. To be certain all you need to do is phone them direct on 0871 983 5999 and ask them what exactly is in their mattress.

As your mattress budget is on the low side I would spend the base budget on your mattress and replace your base at a later date when funds are a bit more available. Your bed slats at 4″ are a bit too wide, If the Gaps between slats exceed 3″ we advice that you cover the base with a small piece of MDF or Plywood. The alternative would be to unscrew your current slats and move them closer together – replace the missing ones with timber from your DIY store.

If you would like to replace you base at a later date please take a look at our Origins Platform base, this would be a fantastic choice.
