Hello
Have a wooden sleigh bed.bought memory foam mattress, hated it as too soft and got rid. Chose miracoil 3 ortho cruz. Now that is too hard. ? I turn a lot during night as does my partner. We have super king size. I am thinking it is the bed as I sleep very well on divans in hotels and the mattress felt soft until we got it on the bed. Have 3 toppers on and still no better. Please help. I feel like goldilocks!!
Thank you

Hi Annie,

It seems to me that you are suggesting it may be an issue with the bed frame rather than the mattress, although you have not advised your body weights or preferred feel.

I suspect that the issue is not with the base, but the tension of the mattresses you are choosing. You have gone from a soft forgiving memory foam to a firm ortho cruz.

The primary consideration in choosing a mattress is the body weight(s) of the people using it.

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

Please see our article here on the questions to ask yourself when buying a new bed or mattress.

Please call our office to provide your body weights and preferred feel and obtain specific advice as to what may be the correct mattress to purchase.

Kind Regards Gary
