    Oh no,could you tell me what kind of problems I need to look out for with this bed.
    thanks
    I so wish Id found this site before I got it

    As with any beds made by this brand you need to keep a very close eye on it, and as soon as you see any problem starting to occur the get it replaced. You may actually have to do this a few times.

    For £720 forget it.

    There are a few reasons why I would advise against this mattress:
    1. It's made by Sleepeezee who are middle of the range, so £720 would be too much to pay.
    2. The mattress is non turn so the springs won't last as long
    3. I can't find the memory foam density listed anywhere.
    The memory foam making you too hot shouldn't actually be a problem with this mattress because it is pocket sprung with memory foam, so the air can circulate and dissapate the heat.

    this looks to me to be an alias for the Touch Classic 2000. On most of their models they use 20mm soft and 50mm denser foam, this one only uses higher density, but not clear what density that is. The price is about £450-£500 for a king mattress.

    Hi everyone. Could anybody give me advice about this bed

    SLEEPEEZEE - GOLD TOUCH 2000. COST £720 IN THE SALE.

    Really need a comfortable sleep as I suffer from Osteoporosis and had a spinal fracture 2 years ago.

    Advice gratefull received. It is a pocket sprung memory mattress. Slightly worried about being too hot in bed

    FINALLY...

    We have purchased a new mattress! It will only be delivered in the next couple of weeks, so we will continue to sleep on the two singles we've squeezed onto our king base! :rolleyes: Found an old school buddy working at a local furniture store and struck a deal ;)

    It's the only place I can find it online, but got it for £550 mattress only. Including delivery and collection of course :T
    Good deal Tim?

    Thanks for your help over the last few weeks whilst Ive attempted to claim via Silentnight/Argos (completely fruitless) and the advice re new mattresses :) you deserve a medal ;)

    It does appear to be a good deal compared to what they would normally charge. It is good to have a friend in the trade, but it shows just the sort of mark ups the retailers usually add.

    Staples have a good rep though yeah?

    It is shocking to see how much is made, but guess it's the same across the boardmore or less?

    Yes they do have a good reputation, but then so did Sealy until recently. The trouble is when big multinationals take them over and try to maximise profits.

    No, not as bad as Silentnight. They don't have the reliability problems that Silentnight have. However many of the large companies have been finding ways to cut costs, so the quality may not be what it used to be.
