Tempur Mattress...again!

Hi there,

I bought one of their Viskose Dream mattresses in "Super King Size", at the start of July and have absolutely no regrets whatsoever.

It feels very firm, but this is what I wanted as I did have back problems prior to purchasing one which have all but gone away now.

One thing I will say is try to confirm their postage costs prior to bidding on the item, they tried to charge me an extra £25 on top of the Uk price for P&P to Scotland. (I dont think anyone ever told them that Scotland is part of the UK), however on checking they reneged and gave at the initially quoted price.

There delivery service was fantastic to say the least. I bought and paid for my Mattress on the Sunday night. I got a phone call from a British Based courier on the Thursday to ask when they could deliver it. I asked basically as soon as possible as I was very keen to receive, so Monday was arranged. Imagine my surprise/delight, when I arrived home on the friday afternoon to find it sitting outside my door (neighbour had signed for it). Fantastic - quicker than most UK based services. (albeit £60)

All in all very good service though - I left very good feedback and got the same in return, which does however look to be their standard reply, which was left about 2 weeks after I left mine. I would recommend them to absolutely anyone.

When I purchased my mattress they had quite a few various sizes as Auctions, I won my "superking size 180x200" mattress for £67 !!!!, with the buy it now price currently at £181. The auction was in german, so I had to make sure I was bidding on the correct item. However they generally had the translated one available as the buy it now - just adjust your sizes to suit !!!

If you search for the mattresses in ebay it doesnt alway bring up the foreign auctions they have listed so try this link.

Hope that link worked - first shortened one yet !!!

Finally, As with all ebay auctions - be prepared to let the item go, Research the recent price of the mattress that you want by looking into their feedback, or searching finished items with the appropriate buzz words. When I bought they seemed to list the same auctions every 3 days, so plenty of opportunity to catch a bargain !!

Hope this helps.

P.s. It would be interesting to know if anyone has bought one of their "gelschaum" mattresses as these I believe would be more of a direct comparision to Tempur mattresses.

I also found that the "viskose" mattress was very similar to the Cheaper foam Vacuum packed mattresses that can be purchased in several larger bed/mattress shops for around £400.

Well Lionking - was this of any use to you ?, as I clearly went out of my way to try and help you with your question - would be interesting to hear feedback.

Also it would maybe help others if you changed the title to Tempur mattress instead of temur.

maybe worth looking in the search section on here, as various threads regarding memory foam mattress and toppers.lots of different suppliers and feedback from other members given

Have a tempur matress and is the best money spent, no problems with sleeping and back pain is not a troublesome,

Hi again,

You dont really sink in to it as such, it moulds itself to your body shape to a certain extent but difficult to explain. Its certainly the best mattress that I have ever slept on and gives my wife and I a fantastic sleep. Be interesting to know how much you get one for if you do win it !, as I said - just bide your time when bidding as they seem to have the auctions running every 3 days.

Friendly Ghost - was everything as expected postage cost wise ?

Glad to be off assistance.
