    Layezee are part of the Silentnight group.......I'd suggest you do a seach for them in the MSE forums before buying.

    I've anly ever slept on a Layezee bed once (as far as I know). And it was the most uncomfortable bed I have ever slept on.

    Everyone's different so it doesn't matter if Tim say's it's uncomfortable, find out if the set is sold else where with customer reviews, thaqt way you get more of a general idea of the bed, my matt is by a local firm Jaybe, and a lot of people would say it's cheap, but I sleep really well on it, so I would also say go round a few shops and try a few out.

    I wouldn't buy a bed or mattress without trying it. I've got 'Dreams Byron'. Is expensive, but you never regret buying a good comfortable, supportive bed. AND you can get a deal . I did More importantly though, do take the time to try any beds before you buy

    As I said, I've only tried one Layezee bed. However there are other reasons not to buy them, as you will see if you do a search on MSE for any member of the Silentnight group.

    I'm not saying for a second that you don't have a good mattress, or that it is suitable for you. However it is a well known fact that Dreams are very over priced, and that you can get better quality for less money elswhere.
  • Hi,

    I'm also in the market for a new mattress.

    I was looking at this:

    http://www.parkbeds.co.uk/cart.php?m=product_list&c=32

    We haven't tried it as yet but I would like to know if anyone has and what their thoughts are.

    Thanks

    This Shenergy fabric, whilst it may have some good properties, is basically being used as a gimmick to push up the price of what is actually a very basic mattress. The site doesn't even say anything about the construction of the mattress.

    There are loads of different types of mattress fabrics on the market with all sorts of ingredients like silver, milk, coconut, etc...... Take a look at this link to see what I mean (it is a pdf file): http://www.boyteks.com/source.cms.docs/boyteks.com.tr.ce/docs/file/downloads/boyteksENG.pdf

    What is more important is the actual construction of the mattress.

    we were after a new bed so whenever we went any where b&b or hotel, friends or family and sleep over we always asked each other in the morning how well we slept. there was a bed in one b&b we have been to twice now that we both really love. so last time we went we stripped bed and found the makers label of mattress and base. so thats what we bought and have never regretted it:j:j
