Hi
I am considering the Artisan 1500 bed in soft because I am only 8.5 stone
and my partner is 11 stone.
We cant really afford the base and headboard as well so will this mattress be ok on a wooden slat bedframe (the slats are about 4 inches apart)?
Thanks

Hi Suzanne,

The Artisan 1500 will be fine on your slatted base provided that you place a barrier, preferably 3-5mm MDF or pegboard, over the slats to give the mattress a uniform surface upon which to sit and to avoid the mattress becoming ridged. Also, I would suggest that before placing your order, you call our office to discuss the spring tension required as it may be that you need a split tension, soft/medium.

BodyweightSpring tension
Upto 16 Stone / 50-101kgMedium (1.4mm)

Available in Bespoke Products (Please Call)Soft (1.2mm)
