Replacing Silentnight Miracoil latex mattress

Hello John and Ryan, First of all may I say how refreshing and useful it was to come across your wonderful website. My wife and I have a Silentnight Micracoil Latex bed that we bought about five years ago, and it now gives anything but silent nights, the base having become very noisy at the slightest movement. Also, the mattress is very uncomfortable, and I see from other commentators that we are not alone in this. We have looked at 4ft 6in beds and mattresses in a number of shops and, so far, we favour either a Sweet Dreams 2000 springs/” title=”pocket spring”>pocket spring divan or a Shakespeare Rembrandt 1000 Pocket spring divan with 5cm foam. However, having read most of your extremely informative website, I wonder if your Origins Pocket Latex 1500 Double divan would meet our needs. I am 5ft 11ins, 12stone 4lb, and my wife is 5ft 3ins, about 11 stone. As has been said elsewhere, it is nearly impossible to be certain that a mattress will be comfortable in use after just a short while testing it in a shop, and I think that your no-quibble return/replacement policy is wonderful. I also note from a customer,s comments that this actually works with no hassle!

Both of us have had lower back problems in the past and our currrent mattress also gives me aches in the hips. We would welcome your comments here when you can, and I feel sure that we will be contacting you before long .

Hi Tony

Looking at your choices, you seem to currently favour the latex built models.

The actual quality of build of our Origins Pocket latex is amongst the best you can get within that price bracket.

This would be easily done if other manufacturers gave you the same intrinsic detail as we do.

In this instance we give you all the comparable data you need to set yourself the challenge of finding better: We tell you the source of latex (Latexco) we tell you the actual blend quality (60/40) we tell you that Dunlopillo (the market leader in latex products) also use this latex company, we tell you that there are no fillers in this latex such as graphite, we tell you the amount we use (6cm) we tell you that it sits on an insulating layer of Reflex Foam (2cm).

Secondly, with the power of the internet it will not take you too long to see if you are able to get more for your money and so on.
