Who did you buy it from? Also has the feel changed since you first got it?

We went to the Back care center in birmingham to be assesd by them,we looked at pocket spring/mem foam + pocket spring and mem foam.

we both liked the pocket spring mattress but we liked a diffrent firmness.
so we are having a harrison topaz with firm on her side and medium on mine, I was unaware that you could do this, delivery up to 4 weeks, will keep you posted.

If possible it would be better if you could find a compromise between the two of you, and find a firmness that you both like. This is because to make a mattress with two different tensions they have to put two lots of springs side by side. This means that the turning of the mattress is restricted which can seriously reduce the life of the mattress. Also this type of mattress quite often develop a ridge where the two different spring sets join.

In theory it is a good idea, but in practice it can cause problems.
