What mattress do you have?

[Rachell1]

Hi All,

I am in desperate need of a nice new mattress having slept on a horrid one for years!

Been and sat on a few and I think I rather like the spring mattresses with the layer of gel/memory on top (think they are called Hybrid?). I don’t want anything too firm.. I suppose just medium?

I did look into Simba and Emma mattresses but seeing lots of mixed reviews.

Looking to get other opinions and recommendations please!

Thanks x

If you’ve landed here while on the hunt for similar mattress advice and/or recommendations, our guide to the best mattresses has been recently updated to reflect current availability and trends. It features a wide range of options and brands all rated by Mumsnetters. We hope it’s helpful!

The Dreams shop I went to had a machine that helped you narrow down a mattress based on things like height, weight, sharing a bed, sleep position etc. Then narrowed down options by budget. I tried the options I had and narrowed down a couple very comfy mattresses. The one I've gone for is pocket sprung with layers of foam etc.

We had Tempur and loved it, then got Harrison Spinks and love that too. Both brands I would buy from again.

My Emma mattress is shit. Had it 18 months ish and it's got a massive dip in it and gives me back ache. (Not overweight )
