Posted: 16:18 - 20 Jun 2018 Post subject: Mattresses... Talk to me |
|
|
So, decided I'm going to look for a new mattress.
Cue Facebook bombarding me with the ads about all the Which recommended. Eve, Otty, Simba, etcetc. The list goes on. All offer 100 day no quibble returns, that inevitably quibble. I can't be arsed getting each mattress delivered in turn to try it for a few days and decide it ain't for me.
We have a decent memory foam mattress, but it's just so hot in summer. The only real places I can see these in the flesh is John Lewis or Next Home.
Can anyone who has experience with any of the above let me know if it was decent, etc. ____________________ Mpd72: I can categorically say i’m Brighter than that, no matter how I come across on here.

Don't buy a mattress without trying it. You spend less time in your car and you wouldn't buy one of those without at least sitting in the drivers seat.
I think memory foam is the work of the devil and can fuck right off, instant boil in the bag bed. My folks have one in their spare room and I sometimes just have to sleep on the floor.
Try a local bed centre. Our local one has loads of different mattresses. you can go in and have a lie down on. If you get hot and sweaty like me, look for natural fibres (cotton, wool etc). Tell the guy what you have now and what you do and don't like about it. They know their trade.
I like Sealey mattresses. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

I thought I was starting The Change.
But I'm too young for that anyway ...
And besides - I'm sensitive to daylight
So now I wonder if it might be the memory foam?
Can't say I noticed it before.
Mebbe I need a new bed, too

Holy thread revival.
Ordered the Rem Fit offering, the 'cool gel' has sold it to me, and the 25% off.
Update in two months when I decide it's shite and not for me. ____________________ Mpd72: I can categorically say i’m Brighter than that, no matter how I come across on here.

It would be prudent to sleep on it then decide.
p.s. I thought that this thread had been put to sleep?
p.p.s. Feather Pillows..... don't fucking forget.
And buy good cotton bed linen. Egyptian Cotton Min. 400 thread count. (Not forum threads. )
What you sleep 'in' is as important as what you sleep on.

Well, had a couple of nights on it now, as it was delivered just before I went up to Scotchland for the new year. I got the 500 which is the middle one in the range, 2000 springs plus the foam plus gel. Came with two sprung pillows.
It's a bit firm. Not ultra firm, but there's a good amount of support. Same with the pillows. Bonus is that I'm not cooking at night like with the old mattress. It is more comfortable too.
They have promos on ATM, you get your pick of the range of pillows this time though, not just the basic ones like I got, but if you're after a mattress, I'd consider one. Can always return it and it gets donated to the BHF if you don't like it. ____________________ Mpd72: I can categorically say i’m Brighter than that, no matter how I come across on here.

Couple months on, and still liking the mattress, still firm, not sunk into it yet, but I suppose the tester will be how warm it is in summer. ____________________ Mpd72: I can categorically say i’m Brighter than that, no matter how I come across on here.

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 5 years, 60 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
