    Not so sure about silentnight mattress deals myself. We bought one in a sale at Vergo for £299, the rrp was £569 if I remember correctly. The springs started collapsing from the edge, inwards after just over 2yrs!
    They offered to replace it with a £289 (rrp) model (presumably even more inferior) at a cost to us of £130.
    My guess is that if it is only worth half of the rrp then it’s probably built to only last half as long. So I’m buying elsewhere in future.

    silentnight memory foam ones dont tend to have springs in ;) and are VERY comfortable for the amount of money you pay. shame they dont have them in the "small double" size or i would be getting myself one

    The price is about right for a All foam construction memory foam mattress, but at 3cm of 55kg memory foam, it's not a great buy at all.For about £250 you should be able to get a pocket sprung mattress, which will support you better and hopefully last longer then the Silenight mattress.

    I'm sure Tim Deegan's 'Silentnight thread on MSE' alarm has woken him from his slumbers so prepare for a post...
