Hi Abigail,

Thank you for your enquiry.

With your daughter’s current body weight, we would suggest a soft spring tension, however, in order to accommodate any increase in weight as she gets older, it may be prudent to go for a medium tension and in the short term, if this feels too firm, apply a topper to get the right comfort level.

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

Without knowledge of your budget, it is difficult to recommend a product from our ranges. Having said that, please view the Origins Comfort 1000 which has softer upholstery layers or the  Origins Pocket 1500 and the Artisan Naturals, which both have more of a medium comfort layer.  The Origins contains synthetic upholstery and has a standard spring unit providing an overall medium feel, whereas the Naturals has natural upholstery and can have the spring tension selected as soft, medium or firm dependent upon requirement.

Once you have viewed these products, please call our office on 0161 437 4419 to obtain more specific advice as to suitability.

Kind regards Julie
