Q1:single cool mattress for single bed
Best replacement for a single very soft mattress for 6ft male 11 stone. Needs a cool , medium firm . The slatted base could be boarded as you suggest. Baffled by a number of mattresses available. Budget not a big issue but trying to avoid buying the wrong type.Would be grateful if you can help.
Hi Elizabeth,
Thank you for your question.
At 11 stone you would need to opt for a medium spring tension to support this individuals body weight.
| Spring Tension | Wire diameter (Gauge) | Weight Range |
|---|---|---|
| Soft | 1.2mm | Bespoke Tension (Please Call) |
| Medium | 1.4mm | Upto 16 stone |
| Firm | 1.6mm | 16 stone plus |
| Extra Firm / Orthopaedic | 1.9mm | 20 stone plus |
The Artisan Luxury is one of the softer feel mattresses in the Artisan range.
This is one of the best completely 100% natural component arrangements you can possibly get. Substantially well upholstered (4600 GSM) utilising horsehair and Wool in a sandwich layout topped off with a blended wool and cotton primary layer.
The nearest comparable model we can find to this is the Vi-Spring Devonshire in terms of comfort. The luxury however includes horse hair and horse tail, which the Devonshire does not, making it a considerably higher specification mattress. The horse hair and horse tail layers provide support for the softer wool layers to prevent excess settlement
