How firm?

Firmer isn't always better - it's all about the right support for your body, and it's important to choose a mattress with full support for your hips, the body's heaviest and hardest working joints. If the bed is too soft, there is not enough support from the pocket springs. If you share your bed, consider buying a mattress with edge-to-edge support. This provides the full support of the mattress - excellent for people of different sizes sharing the bed.

Springs and things

We only sell pocket spring mattresses, which offer optimum support by distributing your body weight evenly. Generally, a higher number of springs will offer more support, so look for a higher spring count. If you're a heavier person, a soft mattress won’t be ideal as you may 'sink' into it, leading to back pain.

Think of your mattress as a cake. The base is the springs, and the icing on the cake can be extra comfort layers - a topping of latex, memory foam or supportive gel.

What size?

Our mattresses and divans come in 3ft, 4ft 6in, 5ft, or 6ft sizes, and the factory has a special offer of providing 3ft 6in or 4ft sizes. So that's everyone catered for, from little kids in single beds, to adults in superking hotel-style luxury.

We've got one golden bedroom rule - go for the biggest mattress that can fit, especially if you've got kids. We all know you can often wake up in the morning with more people in the bed than at the start of the night! So if you need to, bring your partner and kids along to our store, lie on the mattresses and check for space and comfort.
