Duvalay are looking for 10 Mumsnetters to try their latest mattress in the Hilary Devey Collection and to share feedback on a thread on Mumsnet.

Those selected will be sent either a Diamond (firmer) mattress or a Diamond-Luxe (softer) mattress (of their choice) and asked to try it on their existing bed frame. Each mattress has a retail value of £1000. You can choose the size you’d need.

More info and details here: www.hilarydeveycollection.co.uk

Here’s what Duvalay have to say “With over a third of our lives spent sleeping, picking the right mattress is an important factor in making sure you get a good night’s sleep. In an era of mass-production, turning to a handcrafted mattress can be a way of ensuring you don’t suffer from aches and pains after an uncomfortable night’s sleep. Combining traditional handcrafted bed-making techniques with the finest raw materials and innovation, the Hilary Devey Collection is a premium range of hand-made mattresses. Each one is produced from Duvalay’s new Yorkshire factory, which the company moved into a year ago, quadrupling floor space to keep up for the demand for Duvalay products. With Hilary (ex Dragons Den) at the forefront of the design of the collection, personally selecting key features and materials, the collection brings a fresh take to a male-dominated industry by providing affordable luxury with a glamorous edge”.

“The Diamond is a supreme quality mattress that features 2000 individually nested pocket springs. With a summer and winter side, it provides you with a good night’s sleep all year round thanks to its cotton side for summer, which wicks moisture away and a wool side for winter that provides a snug-like effect - furthermore it has been Tried and Tested by the Good Housekeeping Institute.

The Diamond-Luxe takes all the best elements of the Diamond mattress, including luxurious materials and hand side-stitched borders, and features a range of new elements that further add to its glamorous take on the perfect night’s sleep. It’s also one of the first mattresses to the UK market that offers both an ingenious new pocket spring called MidasTouch and a revolutionary new filling called Wooltec®. MidasTouch is a unique spring system that has been specially designed to offer initial softness but also provides much needed support once weight has been applied. Each spring is encased in its own fabric pocket, to actively reduce partner disturbance for a relaxing night’s sleep.

The Wooltec® filling is produced using one of nature’s finest materials, lambswool, and uses the latest is modern manufacturing techniques to create vertically bonded fibres, which allows air to circulate much more easily for greater temperature control. The specially bonded fibres also increase durability and comfort".

We’d like testers to share feedback at least three times on a thread on Mumsnet, as well as sharing photos on the thread. This is open to all UK MNers.

If you’d like to apply, please sign up here and we will be in touch with selected testers directly.

Thanks,

MNHQ

UPDATE: Just for clarity, so long as the required feedback is left, selected testers will be able to keep the mattress after testing. Duvalay is unfortunately unable to take away old mattresses so testers will need to make their own arrangements for this.

Done. Could really do with a new mattress, pick me pick me Grin

MistyMinge · 18/06/2017 22:20

Just come on to say that we have one of these mattresses. After years of a shitty mattress, It's heaven!

Justtrying · 19/06/2017 09:45

Please pick me, really need a new mattress. Coping with a memory foam topper but it's too warm in this weather.

LoadingDishwasher · 19/06/2017 14:03

Would love to do this - have signed up!! Please, please choose us......I would provide very thorough reviews!!

RubbishMantra · 19/06/2017 15:40

Ooh, this mattress sounds superb! Would love to sleep on it, then review it. From bed of course...

Amarjit2008 · 19/06/2017 19:15

SOS I need this 🙏🏽

Srathore · 19/06/2017 19:43

I'm already dreaming about this opportunity and I would really appreciate it if I won. If anything my husband would appreciate it if I won. He has a bad back

FellOutOfBed2wice · 19/06/2017 19:56

I've just been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and our rubbish mattress isn't helping that. I've applied and am keeping my fingers and toes crossed.

velocitygir1 · 19/06/2017 20:07

I have applied...I have ME, dobro and pre cursor ms. Our mattress is knackered and we have only had it 2 years. My husband can no longer sleep in the same bed as me due to this.

PhoenixRisingSlowly · 19/06/2017 20:46

I have signed up, I would be ecstatic to test one of these as my current (rather old) pocket sprung mattress is so painful to sleep on and slowly killing my back.

Srathore · 20/06/2017 08:47

I need this opportunity so bad. I would definitely appreciate it and provide a full detailed review.

user1471511958 · 20/06/2017 10:08

Yes please! I would love to do this! :) l

BeyondOfbob · 20/06/2017 13:24

I don't think I can express in words how much I would love to be picked for this and how much it could change my life. Very sad to see my experience is common on this thread :(

Flowers to everyone else with any sort of bodily shit.

catellen84 · 20/06/2017 13:31

Signed up!

user1497975689 · 20/06/2017 17:31

I've got one of these, I love it. Never slept so well x

FeralBeryl · 20/06/2017 18:28

Oh we are desperate! I've been looking at the O'Dearest ones but these seem great too.

Whatawaytomakealiving · 20/06/2017 20:33

Trampy lady here, still sleeping on the old 'married' mattress ....but with the new man. 😉😳😯

Whatawaytomakealiving · 20/06/2017 20:35

So yes, we are both about to sign up...me and the new man... Not the ExH!😉

bluebump · 20/06/2017 21:10

This looks amazing, my mattress is really terrible but there always seems to be something else that I have to spend my money on so it never gets replaced.

BusyMum86 · 20/06/2017 23:27

Fingers crossed

Iambubbles86 · 21/06/2017 08:19

How come closing dates arnt given on product tests? I'm not complaining, just curious as surely they have had hundreds more than the required number of entrants

Amarjit2008 · 21/06/2017 14:24

I really appreciate that you have thought about me.

k8vincent · 21/06/2017 15:01

Oh please let me sleep better!
