Please recommend a mattress

William asked
10th October 2012

Please recommend a mattress(s) that may suit my needs. Double 4ft 6inch, to rest on a sprung slatted beech base. I weigh 11.5 st and my wife 8st. Price range mid to upper. I suspect that a soft rating will be best considering the light weights indicated. I would also consider a memory foam type, but not exclusively. The choices seem enormous!

Hi William.

I really would use the Artisan Naturals as a starting point (Soft tension springs for your bodyweights).

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

The listing is quite detailed and will point towards other models for comparison.

All slatted bases will require a mattress pad of sorts to prevent the slats digging into the underlying upholstery.

This can be as basic as your old duvet or topper – anything being better than nothing.

Kind Regards Gary
