Help choosing bed!

Hi All,

We desperately need a new bed. We are thinking a divan type as we need storage drawers. King size. Budget of £300-£500 max.

I am quite a bit heavier than my partner, so want a bed which is comfy for us both and won't disturb each other if either person rolls over (current bed is like a trampoline and we always end up squashed in the middle of the bed by morning!)

Can anyone recommend a good bed for our budget? Any good online stores?

Thanks in advance

  • The mattress is what's important and many come in divan sets. I'd recommend the silent night pocket essentials. Silentnight specialise in mattresses for people of different sizes and pocket springs are individual springs so you shouldn't get the trampoline effect. Should be in your price range too. It's rated medium though so if you have back problems that require a firm mattress it won't be suitable.
    For a bit extra it is available with a layer of memory foam on the top which should again reduce the trampoline effect but personally I think you'd be better buying a separate topper because you can remove it if you don't like it.

    Just google "silentnight pocket essentials" by the way and it will show you plenty of online stores.
