Thanks for your reply. We have already put a deposit down on the "Cairo" mattress in Dreams. I believe this is made by Sleepeezee.

We need something quite firm. I can't sleep on soft mattress. We tried this in the shop and seemed fine. The sale assistant said that this was one of the best mattresses in the shop (Dreams). I suppose we can change the mattress as it is not fully paid and delivered. Do you think there would be better makes that we can choose in Dreams?

Your reply is much appreciated.

Ouch!!!! £829 for the king size is very expensive for an own brand pocket sprung only mattress :eek:

Did they actually tell you it was made by Sleepeezee, or did they they they think it is?

As you have paid the deposit I suppose you have to buy from them now. Although I'd check their terms and conditions.

What they probably meant was it gives them one of the best commissions in the shop.

I've been searching on their site for a similar mattress for less money, but most of them seem over priced. However I founth the Sahara and the Rosetta . They both appear to be own brand, but the prices are better.

I'm looking for a new Divan bed with a turnable pocket-sprung mattress with 1000-1800 springs (see, I have read some of this endless thread!). Medium firmness, up to £700, with 2 big & 2 little drawers. Any thoughts on these:

http://www.bedsdirect.com/product/Sussex__Deluxe_1000_Divan_set-19406

I find a lot of websites don't always show the number of springs, or whether it's a turnable mattress, which makes life difficult.

There's lots of advice on here about what not to buy, but where do you find these 'independent manufacturers' who are cheaper & better? I tried searching for bed manufacturers in Gloucestershire on yell.com, but that just brought up a load of joiners (who appear to make wooden beds, not divans with mattresses?). And when you find a website through google, how do you know if they're an 'independent manufactuer' or not? Any advice please?

The Cairo is Sleepeezee, I saw the label.

Many thanks for the suggestions. We shall go there and try the other two.

I think the Cairo one is Sleepeezee made exclusively for them.

Do we have 14 days cooling off period for our deposit?

Does anybody have a link to the top 10 memory foam mattress on the Which website. I cant find it anywhere!

Thanks,

I can't find a working link to the Which? Reports on mattresses any more but i found this link to the results page of the 2006 report.

http://www.bedsdirect.com/product.php?id=18556&infotab=2

I previously said four of the mattresses tested were spring but i now see that it was actually five spring mattresses that were tested. Pocket sprung mattresses did not do as well as the top mattresses with a reflex foam base in the test.

The top mattress was the Healthbeds Memory Flex. It has a reflex foam base.

The same Healthbeds mattress was also top in the 2008 Which? Report on memory foam mattresses but I have not seen that Report. I asked Tim to share it but he either does not have it or refuses to share it. If you have it Tim, please give us the link to the 2008 Report.

Having read 30+ pages of this forum I am now well equipped with loads of info, but am feeling even more depressed about how complicated it is to choose the right mattress/manufacturer/supplier...
Was in the local independent store today and they were recommending a mattress made by a company called Vogue - anyone heard of them/have any views on them?

Follow up to my last post - I can see that there are positive reviews of Kozeesleep mattresses & Restus mattresses. I don't want to order one online without trying one out in the flesh - so where on earth can I find a stockist near to me in Oxfordshire?!!

Guys today I received my first memory foam mattress and so far so good, I know I'll need to spend a few nights in it first to either give it a thumbs up or thumbs down.

I bought the Yanis Memory Foam mattress and it has 5cm of memoryfoam at 80kg density. I take it this is a good density? The reflex foam has a density of 40kg.

It cost me £300 which I thought was reasonable, anyone bought Yanis mattresses before? I had to buy as soon as I could as I was suffering real bad with my old mattress and just couldnt bare it anymore.

I am now looking to buy my daughter a single mattress and have found another mattress which looks pretty good. Its called the Siesta Memory Foam Mattress and is sold by safield co uk. The density is only 65kg and I'm wondering if this is reasonable. Guidance needed folks, thanks :A

PS: I know TIM keeps going on about having the memory foam at around 2 inches as this will enable you to turn etc and not sink in too much, hence the reason why I went for the 5cm version of Yanis. But even then I find that I sink in a little bit and although not impossible, turning seems to require a little more effort. Still love the hugging feeling

Will give give my verdict on this bed sometimes next week. Lets keep it peaceful and spread the love :j <---- look at this muppet!

Thanks guys. Joshua.

Oh yeh Tim and everyone else, sorry but I'm still not able to post links, wonder how long it will take before that restriction is removed. Anyway regarding cancer and memory foam, just google MEMORY FOAM CANCER.

You will see a few sites/forums where they discuss memory foam and its cancerous properties.

I myself am scepticle about the whole thing, just dont see how the government would allow these mattresses to be sold and used in the UK had it been true. I hope I didnt cause any alarm but would be grateful if you guys looked in to it.

Cheers.
