    Cheers Tim,
    Have you heard of Trusleep, been looking on the internet at the Classic 200/300. but don't
    know too much about Memory foam, but the price seems good,or is it? all I do know is that after trying them in the shops(not the one above only av on line) I would really like one.:beer:
    I have just been looking on the trusleep web site, and all was looking so good that I was considering contacting them to sell their mattresses. Then I noticed a couple of things:

    On the Classic 300 & 400 the memory foam is too deep (optimum depth is 2" to 2 1/2"), but the Classic 200 is ok on depth.

    Then I noticed that it says that the mattress has a soft feel. It doesn't actually give the density of the foam, so I presume that to give a soft feel it must be quite low density. In order for memory foam to work properly it MUST be high density, otherwise it won't give you the support it is supposed to. Density should be between 55 & 67kg per m3.

    If you like a soft mattress then memory foam won't suit you.

    Cheer's again Tim, I'm going to email them to find out the Density, because I don't want a soft mattress,will post again,( Cheeky though) but need to know. Thanx.
  • Back again just thought I'd look at the Trusleep Ortho 200, with a higher density 60kg/m3, says it's more supportive without being too firm, the price seems good too, could you please have a little look for me, see what you think I really appreciate your help.

    That's much better as long as you don't hate being hot in bed. If you do then go for the airflow. Or go for a mattress with springs and memory foam so that the air can circulate and help dissapate the heat.

    Hi Benidormquee, I was looking at ergoflex and came across your post. Did you buy it at the end? What's your experience? Thanks. HT
