Hi Sara,

Size? Your approximate budget? Your bodyweights?

(Very important) As a general note: As a means of comparison, you really do have to set yourself an initial budget in order to find out what your money can actually get you. Let’s say for example your budget is £800 (Kingsize) which really is an average price.

Your first points of call should be looking at the bed shops (Dreams / Bensons etc) You then have to see what they are offering you for the money you are expected to pay – Initially just Spring type and count and the quantity of upholstery used.

However, this is where you will need to quite rightly start asking questions – Your most relevant means of comparison is GSM [Grams per Square Meter] This is rarely ever mentioned and for good reason – as it is the only way you will be able to tell who is offering you more for your money.

Finally Sara.

I would say that our Artisan Luxury is a phenomenal mattress for the money – comparable mattresses will be a good £2000 or so MORE for an equivalent model – hard to believe?

All you have to do is search for mattresses for an equivalent price and see if you can find better.

Let us know a few more details and we’ll put our options to you.

John and Ryan.
