Choosing your mattress

Mattress design and technology has never been more innovative. We offer a wide range at prices to suit every pocket.

• The most commonly used springing system in the world.
• Border rod or wire gives the mattress a firm edge and helps retain its shape.
• Sides are generally machine stitched.

• More luxurious, with individual small springs housed in separate fabric pockets.
• Springs work independently to respond to individual body weight.
• Ideal if there’s a considerable weight or size variation between you and your partner.
• Turn regularly to ensure even settlement.
• Hand stitched sides for strong, stable edges.

• Our most luxurious pocket spring mattress, with a highly effective ‘spring within a spring’ system.
• Responsive outer spring works with a second inner spring to provide extra support where it is needed most.
• Turn regularly to ensure even settlement.
• Hand stitched sides secure the outer springs to the border.

• Talalay latex is the finest polymer available.
• Resilient feel with excellent durability.
• Hypo-allergenic with anti-microbial properties.
• Conforms to your body’s contours.
• Breathable, so you won’t overheat.
• No turn, but occasional rotation will distribute the wear evenly.

• Body heat reacts with the foam to soften it.
• The mattress then moulds and re-moulds to your body’s contours.
• Provides excellent support and enables natural movement during sleep.
• Helps to maintain correct posture and align spine horizontally when lying on your side.
• Hypo-allergenic with anti-microbial properties.
• Occasional rotation is necessary to distribute the wear evenly.

Circulation: Avoid using a plastic sheet on or under the mattress as this prevents air circulation and can cause condensation.

Sprung mattresses: With sprung mattresses it's important to turn your mattress regularly to maximise its life. Body weight compresses a mattress, leading to dips and ultimately an uneven sleeping surface. Consider a one-sided 'no-turn' mattress if turning a heavy mattress could be difficult.

Latex and visco-elastic mattresses: These mattresses do not need turning and in some cases only have one sleeping surface so cannot be turned, but the mattress should still be rotated lengthways occasionally (once a month) to maximise their life. Over time these mattresses may feel as if they are gradually getting softer, as cells within the foam open more fully and the surface reacts more quickly. However the important pressure relieving properties remain the same and eventually the whole mattress will react evenly.
