Would you spend £2800 on a mattress?

[Joycey29]

Just that, have come into a bit of money and it is an option....
DH and I have joint probs and this mattress is amazing but I ve never spent that much on a product!!!!
Would you.....?

Yeah I would. You spend half your life in bed, it's important to have a comfy one. If you have it for 15 years it's only £180 per year

No

no

Yes if I could afford it without goung without anything else.

I suffer with joint pain and plan on spending ££ on a new mattress next year.

if it was totally amazing and the comfiest thing ever and i could afford it then yes... yes i would.

Not if its tempur, memory foam and probably not even if it isn't. We got tempur through Dreams then changed for another mattress because of their 40 day exchange policy - mattress cost around £2000 I think. Well it's ok, but not as nice as our old one that cost £500, but didn't last very ong.

If I had the money then yes. I love my bed so much. We spent almost 1k on our mattress and it's amazing (1k is an awful lot for us too!)

Depends. It really would have to be very very special.

It's the technogel mattress.
It's cool and yet supports fully.
20 year gaurentee...

If I had the money spare and thought it would be worth it, then I suppose so. That wouldn't ever happen though! Last one we bought was about £350 and that was really expensive for us.

My problem is that I don't want to spend that much if a cheaper will cool and support in a similar way...

Our bed was in the region of £1600 and that included the divan. I thought that was a lot!

It is rather lovely and I did justify it by telling everyone that you spend a third of your life in bed.

You'll get sufficient for cheaper but I would if I had the money without sacrificing elsewhere but check this place out. So much info...

Enjoy! And go superkingsize, you won't regret it!

Certainly, if I was confident in what I was doing. I'd love to know enough about mattresses to know which ones were worth it.

Thanks Surgeon, I think that's what I mean I need!

yes, as long as it wasn't going onto a credit card.
we are far from rich, but after years of sleeping on shitey beds we treated ourselves to a decent feather and black bed and mattress when DH got a big tax rebate. for context, everything else in our house comes from ikea.

I love my bed. every night when I get into it, I'm glad we spent all that money.

Our house is also ikea and oak furniture land - hence the reticence but three small cd and I need meaningful sleep x

mattresses are one thing that you HAVE to try before you buy.

so, if you're not 100% sure then go and try as many as you possibly can!

when you find the one, google to see if it's any cheaper anywhere else

Tried, googled - still expensive x

We spent a reasonable amount on our bed and it was some of the best money we have ever spent. if you can afford it do it.

Remember you spend at least 7 hours a day (pre children) in your bed. Over 20 years that works out as approx 5p a night. I think. And definitey go super kingsize!

No, I'd object to £280 and have been avoiding buying a new mattress for the last year.

Couldn't and wouldn't.

Do it.

Unless you have debt to pay off.

You dhould not keep a mattress for 20 years, by 10 its ready to be changed even if it is still comfy. Too much sweat in it, sorry.

Yes I would.

I cannot understand why people spend more on their sofa than on their bed.
