What is similar to the Hypnos beethoven mattress?
I have contacted you before but I have lost your email. I would like your advice on which would be the best mattress for our budget. We have around £1000 to spend. My husband weighs 15stone and I weigh 11stone. We have a wooden sturdy slatted base. We would like super kingsize. We have visited a couple of bed places and definitely don’t like the feel of the memory foam. The mattress we did like was Hypnos Beethoven but it was over 3k!
My husband likes the feel of a super soft (expensive hotel) mattress, I like a slightly firmer mattress because I feel if it is too soft I get back ache (which is something I suffer from now and then). We currently have quite an expensive mattress but it is now 14 years old!
and I feel pressure on my shoulders and hips as if the padding has gone (which it probably has). My husband is 63 and I am 53 (I presume age is a consideration with aches and pains as you get older and turning the mattress). My husband is 5ft 11 and I am 5ft 10. Also we bought a topper for about £80 from the company you recommended. The topper is ok but I prefer the feel of a smooth surface underneath me and a cooler surface – the topper makes me feel a bit hot. Is there a different type of topper we could buy that would protect the mattress from wear and tear but feel as though it wasn’t really there?
I suppose what I am saying is I want good cushioning but I want the mattress to feel cool. Finally is the delivery time still up to 28 days. What could the earliest deliver time be?
I look forward to receiving your advice. Many Thanks Julie >
Hi Julie,
Thanks for your question.
Given your body weights, preferred feel and budget I would recommend our Artisan Naturals in a medium tension.
| John Ryan By Design Artisan Naturals | Vi Spring Regal Superb | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1200gsm Blended British Fleece Wool and Cotton. | 900gsm Blended real Shetland Isle Fleece Wool and Cotton |
| 2 | Hairproof Cambric Cover | Hairproof Cambric Cover |
| 3 | 1250gsm Rebound Poly Cotton | 1200gsm long stranded Horsetail blended with British Fleece Wool |
| 4 | 1500gsm 100% Pure Mohair | 1000gsm Bonded British Fleece Wool and Cotton |
| 5 | 1600 Calico encased Pocket Springs [ 49mm ] [1.28mm ] | 1720 Calico encased Pocket Springs [48mm ] [1.28mm ] |
| Total GSM | 3950gsm | 3100gsm |
This will provide you with the firmer feel you require with the cushioning of natural fillings, whereas for your husband it will provide a softer feel.
This mattress contains 1200 grams per square metre of Bonded British Wool/Cotton, 1250 grams of Poly Cotton and 1500 grams of Mohair with 1600 six turn pocket springs.
This mattress retails at £1235.00 for the kingsize mattress July 2018, which I note is slightly more than your budget but represents excellent value for money and comes with a manufacturer’s 10 years guarantee.
As far as a topper is concerned, it may be better for you to opt for a mattress protector, which would be thinner than the toppers available and should feel as though it isn’t there, as required.
We place our orders for these mattresses every Thursday and they are dropped at our couriers a fortnight the following Tuesday.
At that point the couriers will check their routes and contact you to arrange delivery, which usually takes place within 7 to 10 day of the mattress arriving at the couriers.
I trust that is of assistance to you, if you require any further help please call the office on 0161 437 4419.
Kind Regards Gary.
