Questions on Marks and Spencer mattress
I am looking at buying a king size mattress & divan base My budget is around £1200.
We need a mattress that supports both a 11 stone person & a 22 stone person.
The 22 stone person sleeps on tummy & side, and tosses and turns quite a bit ( but that could be due to present bad mattress) the other person lays mainly on side.
I I have looked at Marks & Spencer, at the fresh 2200 mattress with coolmax and the classic sprung divan with 2 drawers.
The mattress is on offer at the minute at half price £749.50 and then a further £339.30 for a two drawer sprung divan base.
I notice you say there is no such thing as a sale, so wanted to know if this is a suitable mattress, is it a bargain and what would recommend from your range.
Thanks .
Hi Jane.
Thank you for your enquiry on our website. An individual who is 22 st needs a firm spring tension to get the correct level of support, whereas an individual of 11 st only requires a medium spring tension.
| Bodyweight | Spring tension |
|---|---|
| Upto 16 Stone / 50-101kg | Medium (1.4mm) |
| 16 Stone / 101kg Upwards | Firm (1.6mm) |
| Available in Bespoke Products (Please Call) | Soft (1.2mm) |
In your case, I would recommend the zip and link option rather than the dual spring tension one piece mattress, with it being essentially two mattresses it would prevent disturbances from tossing and turning in the night.
The lack of information on the M&S Breeze prevents me from offering an informed opinion but if they are willing to divulge the contents to you I would be more than happy to do so.
As side sleepers, we wouldn’t recommend anything too firm in the comfort layers as this can cause pressure pains in the shoulders, hips and knees. From our range, I would ask you to look at our Origins Pocket Reflex 1000, which combined with a 2 drawer Origins Platform base and a headboard fits within your budget at £1165.
I hope this was helpful and if you would like to discuss the suitability of any of our mattress please contact the office on 0161 437 4419. Our Office hours are 8 am – 8 pm Monday to Friday and 10 am – 4 pm Saturday and Sunday.
Kind Regards
