Bed & Mattress Guide


Comfort level

Your weight is an important factor to consider when selecting your perfect comfort level. The less you weigh, the firmer a mattress will feel. If you weigh up to 10 stone, we recommend you select from either Soft, Medium or Firm comfort levels. We would not recommend Extra Firm for this weight bracket because you would not sink into the mattress enough to get the correct support. Likewise, if you weigh over 15 stone we would not recommend selecting a Soft or Medium comfort level because you will sink too far into the mattress and put unnecessary strain on your spinal muscles - we would however, recommend either Firm or Extra Firm comfort as these would offer the best level of support for someone in this particular weight bracket.

The table below provides a guide.
