    Irrespective of the pocket spring or not, it's a non-turn mattress, so not ideal anyway. Usually means it made with less materials and lower spec to save costs. A non-turn mattress will wear twice a quickly as a turn one, as you only have one side to wear!

    Okay I think I'm gonna ditch the pocket sprung memory foam topped mattress as I can't find one with both sides foam so I can turn regularly. A nice pocket sprung mattress and a foam protector....

    I really do need the foam support for my back but understand I need to rotate the mattress to prolong quality and life.

    Thank god for this forum ....it's so hard to shop for mattresses and I can see now how Dreams make a profit to it's unknowledgable customers!!

    I asked about the warranty, its a replace or refund one if there is any manufacturing defect on the mattress. I am not convinced that this mattress is NOT pocket sprung:

    Are you sure Tim? The website states its pocket sprung with "1200 individually nested pocket springs".

    This seems the best one I have found for the price.

    This appears to be another foam encapsulated pocket sprung mattress. Many manufacturers are now using this method because the springs are far cheaper and smaller.

    As a general rule a proper pocket sprung/memory foam mattress will be hand tufted. This is because the tufting is part of the construction which stops the springs fall ing over like dominoes.

    As TiTheRev says it is also a non turn mattress.

    This is what hand tufting looks like:

    Ok Tim. But my budget is now a maximum of £350 (£50 more than originally!) and I need to order a mattress today. Would you reccomend the Kozeesleep one? Or is there anyother one that I should go for. Pls help. :confused:

    For £350 you would be better off going for a good quality pocket sprung only, rather than trying to get a cheap pocket sprung/memory foam.

    Maybe you need a pocket sprung mattress with memory foam topper Puja? Would work cheaper and you can still turn it and keep the topper attached no matter which way up!?

    Titherev...thanks again for your suggestions...but memory foam mattress toppers are not that cheap, and if I can get a fairly decent pocket sprung with the memory foam for £350 then surely that would be a good buy? Unless there is something particularly wrong with this one?
