Hello Tim,
I'm looking for medium firm and after more research I think I've narrowed it down to Kozeesleep Newstead. What's your view on the quality of this one? Other than the Pocket Master, do Kozee do any other Medium Firm Pocket Sprung Divans (either with or without memory Foam).
I've got conflicting advice on the Restus Coniston as to whether this is Medium or Medium Firm. Do you have a definitive answer on this one? As with the above, do Restus do any other Medium Firm Pocket Sprung Divans (either with or without memory foam)?
As always your expert advice much appreciated.
Thanks

After your advice, I contacted the seller of the Restus bed (below) on ebay, and asked him the memory foam density, not telling him what you said about it being only 55.
He has replied saying that they used to be 55, but have recently changed memory foam suppliers and it is now 60.

The question really then is, do you think this mattress is good value for money, and should it help out with easing my lower back pain from sleeping on my crappy Silentnight Pillow Top Micracoil?
Cheers,
Kev
Well that's not what they have told me
It's only good vale if it is what you actually want. Don't go for a mattress taking into account price alone.
If you call Restus they will tell you their local supplier, so you can go and try it out.0 -

As I suggested to the last question. Call Kozeesleep and see what they say. It seems that someone is being given the wrong information.
Kozeesleep and Restus are the same company by the way.0 -
Having spent a couple of evenings looking around for a single mattress for my 5yo daughter, I have to say it's really annoying when the sellers put so little information on their site about their products!! I guess that's for people buying on price alone.
Any views on Vogue matresses, anyone? I was looking at this one...

They have it listed as medium to firm. However 12.5gauge open coil springs are firm.
Personally I'd go for a medium for a 5 year old.0 -

ok, thanks. The same company have these listed as medium, but I don't think the brand has been commented on here:

Snuggle have been mentioned before. They are just a budget brand, as I think it even mentions on one of the listings.0

The memory foam one would probably be the best choice for support. The memory foam would also help prevent roll together (pocket springs would normally prevent this).
Open coil springs are tougher than pocket springs, so turning over isn't as critical.

I'm thinking of getting this Relyon Memory Foam Advanced 1250 double mattress from ebay. Its has a 50mm memory foam layer.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RELYON-1250-MEMORY-FOAM-POCKET-46-DOUBLE-BED-MATTRESS_W0QQitemZ280258346992QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item280258346992&_trkparms=72%3A985%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
I tried it out in Harveys and I quite liked it. I also tried out the 1440 however according to the ebay listing it has a 70mm memory foam layer which is closer to 3inches and not what Tim has been recommending. So won't be going for that. Also although it was cosier than the 1250 the warmth might be a problem in the summer.
Its selling on ebay for £299 on ebay compared to £499 in Harveys. I know its not a non-turn mattress. Does anybody think this is this a good deal? I'd prefer buying a mattress I've tried out in person. What do you think Tim?
Thanks0
