Recommendations for new King Size Mattress and base

nickpe

Hi All -

Wanting some recommendations / advice please regarding buying a new bed - we are wanting a King Size one to replace our old one.

My budget for a bed frame and mattress is around the £800 mark.

Ideally, I want to spend the bulk of the budget on a quality Mattress and i quite like the idea of going for one of the memory foam style ones.

I've seen so many different Mattress's online when doing my research -
Eve
Emma
Casper
Leesa
Simba Hybrid
Nytex Hybrid

Alot of the above offer 100 day trials etc

Just wondered if anyone has bought any of the above / can give a solid recommendation from experience, or also to stay clear of any they dont recommend.

The key thing is we need it be King Size and not much over our £800 budget.

Thank You.

Other things to consider : firmness/ topper/ mattress protector / storage etc
Hope this helps

Dont forget Ikea, as they have tried in last few years, to make their beds/mattresses more friendly, with UK sizes and several variations, on offer.


They have a long warranty, although some seem to feel it isn't as good as they thought, as lots wear n tear has to be taken into account.

We invested in a Simba and love it - tried it out at a JL store. OH had back pain that he had no idea was related to our old mattress - week on Simba and no pain at all. Of course it's horses for courses so I deff recommend trying some in store.

As for the base, we got a cheap(ish) ottoman style based from Groupon (King Size was under £200) which is actually pretty good - better than expected for the £.

Simba were running 20% off but I don't know if it's still on - otherwise they often have some deals for Black Friday if you can wait that long?
