Hi,

First Post:


I have come across Apollo Beds whereby they do a "Dual Density 1500 pocket spring" mattress directly from Apollo for £360. Cheapest online is £389. This is a 'turnable' mattress 2" foam on both side. Is this similiar to the La Romantica mattress?

Here is the spec:

The Dual Memory Foam & 1500 Pocket mattress has is luxury mattress with a 12 inch deep mattress that has a luxury four-way stretch knitted fabric and deep memory foam, this will mould your body to reduce stress. And a 1500 pocket sprung that will give a all round support and the best sleep ever.

Specification:

• Luxury four-way stretch knitted fabric
• 50mm V60 Memory Foam
• 50mm V55 Memory Foam
• 1500 Spring Unit
• Medium - Firm Support
• Hypo - allergenic
• Dual sleeping side, Dual Density
• 12" thickness (300mm) deep mattress

Rating: Medium/Firm

Any experts reckon the four-way stretch knitted fabric will provide the edge to edge support?

It isn't the 4 way stretch fabric that gives the support, it's what's inside the mattress.

I used to sell these, but one of the reasons I stopped was because they lowered the spec without telling us, and still charged the same price.

Hi Tim, thanks for your reply. Did they use to make these in strong steel springs? What do you think has changed in the build quality? Are these mattress ok for slatted bed. The slats on my bed are less that 2" apart. I am on a budget and I do like the La Romantica, but it is out of price range.

Any help appreciated.

Thankyou

I'm afraid I can't really go into details for legal reasons.

There are a few similar ones about that do contain pocket springs. Personally I think it's best to have memory foam on both sides.

It's not as important to be able to turn an open coil sprung mattress.
