Recommendation of best mattress for an 85 kg woman

Lola asked
10th July 2017

Hi I’m 85 kg woman and my husband is around 80 kg we are thinking of either sharing a king-size or having to single together. We need a mattress that gives this good support but I don’t think I can stand it to be too soft or too hard . I have tried and returned now several mattresses for example hesseng from IKEA was rockhard and I could not get used to it even if I tried for two months same happened with Lisa I found it too soft and the problem was that both of them gave me severe hip pain and sciatica. I also tried Bruno, who ended up being quite comfortable but the foams got deformed and I simply had like a mountain between my husband and I and to kiss good night to my husband had to climb a hill.
I am really confused I’m currently sleeping on a cheap mattress with a topper, I need a proper solution as soon as possible.
I am mostly a aside a slipper alrhough I change positions all the time ( probably because i not comfortable) my husband is a side sleeper definitely.
Which of your mattresses would you recommend in my case? Thank you very much in advance

Hi Lola

Thanks for your question.

As you describe what you are looking for is something not too soft or too firm, that leads me straight to a medium feel. So the comfort layers have a little give, to be comfortable, but not a mattress you sink too far into. Side sleepers need to have a mattress that isn’t too firm in the top upholstery layers, so as not to create any extra pressure.

At yours and your husbands body weights you are both a definite medium tension spring, to give you both the correct support level within the mattress.

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

You could look at the Origins pocket 1500 mattress, or the first 4 models in the Artisan range.
