Mattress for taller sleeper at 7ft in a firm tension

Zac Morgan asked
7th November 2016

My old mattress is a very saggy mattress that often leaves me with an aching back due to the fact that it now sags in the middle after several years of nightly use. It measures 6′ 3″ long and 3′ wide but ideally I need a mattress that’s 7′ long and 3′ wide. I’d like to be able to get a mattress that’s fairly firm – not necessarily rock hard, but not soft and saggy either.
I was in a local store recently trying out mattresses and although they were too short I found that mattresses rated as 4 out of 5 for firmness seemed to suit me down to the ground as far as rigidity was concerned, but although they were affordable the thing that put me off was the fact that the longest mattresses available in the store were only 6′ 3″ long, and therefore were no better than my old mattress as they are not long enough to accommodate my height, as I’m 6′ 6″.
Would it be possible to buy a 7′ x 3′ mattress that rates as 4 out of 5 for firmness without having to pay extortionate prices to get a decent mattress? If so when would be the soonest that the mattress could be delivered should I decice to purchase a mattress from yourselves?

Hi Zac,

Thanks for getting in touch, we certainly can help you with a bespoke size mattress to these dimensions.

Ideally, we would need to know your weight as well as your height to give a tailored recommendation. However, we can offer two recommendations for the feel you’re looking for.

In our Origins Range please look at our Origins Reflex which will give a firm but not punishing feel.

 

In our Artisan Range please look at our Artisan 1500, we would need to know your exact weight for the spring tension but that model has a firmer feel in the top upholstery layer.

Both of these mattresses can be made to the bespoke size of 7ft long for an additional 20% on the listed price in our store. Due to the fact it is a bespoke size, we wouldn’t cover it with our 60 day love it or return it guarantee, however, it’s still fully covered for defects. You didn’t mention if you needed a base to this bespoke size. We don’t recommend placing our mattresses son the floor as they can get damp without a base that has some ventilation. Our base prices are listed here and again would carry a 20% increase for a bespoke size to 7ft. We can send you a special order link for this if you choose to proceed.

If we can be of any further help please feel free to call us on 0161 437 4419.

We look forward to hearing back from you.
