Hi, I have been looking over your site and offers, I have picked out 3 mattresses which I think would suit me!

I am male, 69 years old; I am around 5′ 10″ tall, weight, 11 stone !

I suffer with Rheumatoid Arthritis, also respiratory problems!

Advise me please on which of the 3; ie: Fusion 1 Latex medium single, or, Hybrid 6 or Hybrid 7 single ??

I don’t like too firm or too soft !!

Cheers, David.

Hi David,

The models you are looking at all have medium support so you’re probably on the right track given your weight.

The best of the three is the Fusion 3 model in terms of material, we no longer have the Fusion 1 in our range, the fact its two sided and is made of 100% natural latex trumps the rest is terms of material.

That said it is also the most expensive.

The hybrid 6 and 7 are also no longer available in our ranges.

We do have the Hybrid 4 and Hybrid 5 models, these are both one sided mattresses made from Hybrid foams

Id say the Hybrid 5 would be the firmest out of the above options.

My advice would be that latex is the most responsive, is naturally hypoallergenic and is the coolest of the materials so if these are benefits that you are looking for then maybe the Fusion 3 is the best choice.
