Memory foam/pocket sprung mattress (merged threads)

Hello, has anybody bought a Memory Foam mattress, not a topper but a proper mattress.
My mattress has had it, and I need a new one. I'm thinking of investing in a King Size mattress and wondered what people thought of them

Best buy for me!

We've had ours a couple of years now, but if my memory serves me correctly you get the mattresses in different strengths, so say a No1 mattress might be all foam, a No5 is half foam half springs and so on (I'm sure if I've got it wrong some one will be along to correct me )

So its worth lieing on a few different ones to see which strength you like the best.

Sounds good to me Outrageous Monkey, might fall asleep in the shop though.

Bought ours a couple of years ago and must admit I have been very impressed. Do take time to decide on firmness - i must admit the sales guy knew his stuff when we bought ours and took the time to make sure it was what we wanted.

Last year I bought couple of the pillows and I am less than happy with them, couldn't get on with them at all.

Hi, I am looking for a King Size Memory foam mattress. I don't like very ahrd mattresses, but my husband likes the mattress to be hardish .
Our silentnight mattress is now 15 years old and is giving me aches and pains, so just need advice on which is the best to buy

I have a budget of about £300 or less, and wouldn't mind using Quidco or something to get cash back.

Don't expect that brand to last that long again.........they used to make them to last, but unfortunately not any more.

Have you slept on a memory foam mattress before?

The best quality memory foam mattress you are likely to find for under £300 open coil sprung with memory foam.

The only trouble with Quidco is that the companies who are signed up to them tend to me more expensive in the first place, so you don't actually make a saving (I have looked into it).

As far as mattress recommendations go - I can vote for Sleepeezee. We bought a spring & memory foam combo mattress from them a few months ago and it is a dream!!!
