Need a decent mattress
Discussion
Just spent a month sleeping every night on an American mattress called a Chatham and Mills, I think.
Slept like a baby unlike on my Hypnos mattress at home where the aches and pains have me awake within 4 hours.
The Hypnos I bought from a supplier to a hotel chain after a good 3 nights sleep on the same at a Holiday Inn. It was surprisingly cheap for a 4'6", about £200 and it did give good service but for only a couple of years.
Now the American make is around $2000 plus so just wanted some recommendations that won't break the bank.
Please no Tempur type memory foam as they make me sweat something chronic.
Cheers

Where did you get the Hypnos mattress so cheap? I thought the doubles were £400+
This page will answer a few questions......

I have a Superking Artisan Naturals upstairs still in the packaging - waiting for carpets to go down before I make the new bed frame up.

Our Ikea firm double (sprung,no memory foam) was used by myself for 18 months, and is now in the spare. Always gets compliments for how comfy it is.
So we've just got rid (sold on gumtree!) Of our 1 yr old family-furniture store king and replaced it with the updated Ikea sprung, no foam king. 250 quid, and comes in a very compact roll. It's great. Be interested to see how it holds up in the long term, but even a few years and it'll be worth it, especially as it's so easy to fit another in the boot.

After I deveoped back issues with a subsiding Sleepmasters mattress I tried many different kinds and finally found one that works - latex. http://www.latexsense.co.uk/?CAWELAID=120173270000...

ViSpring make extremely fine mattresses, but they are not cheap. No bed I have ever slept in is as comfortable as the ViSprings I have had.
I spent three months in a French hotel which had a fantastic mattress, a ViSpring was the closest I found to it, pricey but well worth the cost.Vi Spring.
Did you get that?
Vi Spring.
Just been through a whole 4 year cycle of disappointment. Vi-Spring to foam to Vi-Spring via solid base and sprung edge divans.
Put your Vi-spring on either a Vi-Spring divan or a John Ryan divan. If Vi-Spring is too expensive, then try John Ryan pocket spring. Accept nothing less.
Read up about spring firmness etc and choose accordingly.

I think John Ryan - already linked to earlier as Factory Beds Direct - aim to make mattresses comparable to Vi-Spring for half the Vi-Spring discounted cost.whoami said:

Wrong.
Now back to a proper bed. Both much more comfortable. An expensive mistake.

Was going to buy a John Ryan mattress, then found a small furniture shop in crickhowel that did the compatible ViSprung delivered for a similar priceGassing Station | Homes, Gardens and DIY | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
