to ask where you bought your mattress from?

[lavenderdillydilly]

As the title says.

I don't want to go to Dreams (the salesman called me fat, and I am too embarrassed to go back there and also don't want to give him my custom). AIBU?

I then bought a Simba mattress - we've had it for about a month but my back is in agony.

Now I'm looking for a mattress I can try out rather than buy from online.

Thank you

Good grief that's appalling about the salesman. Did you complain?

I went to John Lewis.

We went to Furniture Village.

Ikea

ANd bought a Vi-Spring. It's fantastic! And lots of new pillows, also wonderful.

Mine is a Premier Inn Hypnos, having had many Premier Inn stays it was well tested before buying!

He did whaaaaat? OMG!

Anyway, when you find somewhere try to find a Myers mattress. I’ve got degenerative disc disease in my spine and need a really stable, but not too firm, mattress. Tried so many out uk stores, some of them mega expensive too, and none of them were good for me. In desperation ordered a Myers firm online and it’s heaven and as a bonus was reasonably priced too.

Otty. Love it

Emma

we loved ours so I never looked into this further but noticed they do give you a 200 night trial.

Benson sometimes offers to have mattress returned if you aren't happy.

John Lewis.

John Lewis. It is DREAMY and the staff were really helpful.

Got mine from Emma. Love it

Ikea. I think it was called Hovag. I love pocket sprung mattresses. So comfortable

Carpet right

John Lewis. We tried loads and ended up with the Emma as it was the only one which properly supported my side of the bed when Dh flopped down on his side. Took some getting used to and we nearky sent it back several times as it stank for ages - weeks longer than the '24 hours to air' they suggested. and the smell triggered my asthma. But it went eventually and is now really comfortable.

IKEA

John Lewis, also ikea is good.

You can try them out.

John Ryan. I think it was recommended here. One of the few places that show you what you’re paying for, in terms of construction and materials.

Best bed we've ever had!

What? The salesman called you fat? He actually said that?

Ours is Brook and Wilde and it’s the best thing ever!

I think they are only online though, so maybe try John Lewis.

IKEA, mainly because of my staff discount. It's super comfy though

Our mattresses are Ikea. I’ve tried more expensive ones from elsewhere in AirB&Bs or friends’ guests rooms and have never been that impressed for the price point.

Did they call you fat or did they advise that somebody large and heavy would do better with X type of mattress because of better support or weight distribution?
