Salus Crystal 2000 or Heal01 Backcare Latex 2000

We're looking for a new superking bed and have boiled it down to 2 of them.
The first is a Breasley Salus Crystal 2000 from Stokers and the second is a Backcare Latex 2000 from Alan Ward
The Salus is a 2000 Pocket Spring with a foam top, and I believe the Backcare one is similar but with 1500 springs. The Salus is foam encapsulated, not sure about the Backcare
The Backcare is about £150 cheaper than the Salus, however I haven't heard of either - not that big into bed brands since its our first one!
I did find out that the Backcare bed has a 10 year guarantee, however the Salus only has a 5 year limited guarantee with the first year being the only fully guaranteed year.
Any thoughts and suggestions on them both?

Both of them do Superking, would be ordering from store though not online as they don't seem to do them.

Don't like the look of the Alan Ward one, never heard of them but the picture of the product looks like it's made by Healthbeds, although Healthbeds as a company usually make a decent product. It doesn't state how much latex is in it. You really need a fair about to make it worth having latex in the product in the first place.Helping the country to sleep better....ZZZzzzzzzz0

I couldn't say who makes the bed to be honest with you as there didn't seem to be a "brand" on it.
Why isn't bed shopping easy
