that's a topper, i think. i've got the whole mattress which i love but my mum bought a topper and she thinks it's great.

Where did you get the mattress from? Just looked on the Tempur website and the kingsize is 1400 quid!

i got mine off a bed company that sells a lot on ebay. they were based in newcastle. it's not a real tempur mattress but memory foam is memory foam... king-size cost £375 as i recall but i cut a deal with him and got a bit off cos i was buying a bed also.

I have just ordered a memory foma mattress, couldn't afford a tempur one though. I am sure that there was a MN thread about someone selling dodgy memory foam so just e careful. But I woudl imagine that you will ahve checked out their ratings so enjoy your new sleep!

OMG hope I have not wasted £110 buying this from ebay. does anyone know what dodgy foam mattress it was.

TheBlairAitchProject · 15/10/2006 21:03

it was the mattresses that were dodgy, i don't remember anythign about toppers. basically people were just getting ordinary (crap) mattresses thourhg the post. don't worry.

Didnt mean to piss on anyone's parade, in between dealing with hormonal teenagers and bitter colleagues I have been felling awfully guilty that you were excited about your new mattress ( and as someone about to recive her new bed whihc replaces the one her dp was born in I do understand your excitement) and I ahd come along and ruined it all with my sourpuss scaremongering. Sorry.
