What do you sleep on?

[struth]

Vesgantti double mattress for me as i like sprawl space and somewhere for my remotes etc... 10.3" thick, it has layers of CertiPUR-US certified foam and hundreds of individual pocket springs
cost £170 and free delivery(vacuum shrunk in a box). it was so heavy even my mate couldnt get it upstairs.. had to call out my son in law who is built like a brick outhouse..
I have a 4" topper on it for added comfort.
Ive a bad back and cervical spondylosis so pushed the boat out.. actually its a good mattress, but as im heavy i need to replace more often than most i guess..... last one was about 10/12 yrs but really should have been half that, but was skint for most of the time

That looks like a decent buy Grant, and only 200 quid for the King size. For the money you can't go wrong really. Duly put on my shopping list

it was firm initially, and was better with the memory topper on. ive used that topper for a while and it is nice to have some thickness between you and the hard bit

I have two pits, I usually sleep on the Airsprung with a topper but the Miracoil’s probably better for my back but is akin to sleeping on a park bench. .

20 years since I bought a bed or mattress. Can't recall what I paid but it wasn't big money. A few hundred. I got a discount because the salesman added up the price wrong even though he was using a calculator. The mattress cost more than the bed. Bed is king size and solid pine but had to screw it together myself from the bits. Before that I slept on the floor as I had no money after buying the house. Bed and mattress both still fine.

Same here.

Self assembled pine king sized bed from Sweden, bought maybe thirty years ago and still perfectly sound. Memory foam mattress about ten years old that is turned when the bedding is changed. Very comfy and no sagging, I sleep well generally.

Tried a memory foam topper that annoyed me 'cos it kept moving around, so that went!

Don't use much in the way of sheets & blankets (hate duvets), as I'd sooner be on the cool side than too warm, use no heating in the bedroom. I grew up without central heating and was used to frost on the inside of the windows in winter as a kid .

yes likewise. These days I just use a sleeping bag, much easier to wash and dry and none of that aggravation of putting the cover back over the quilt. I hated that job. If it's really cold I put a blanket on top.

Do you have a spare one for if you bring a lady home?

[struth]

i just lie on top .. if really cold might use a throw too

Mine is made by Hypnos, was bought years ago and is still in fine condition. Gets turned around and turned over every few months. It's fairly firm as are the pillows - I don't like a soft matress.

Use a 'four seasons' duvet but never use the Winter combination.
