The question: what mattress is recommended for teens and how much do I need to spend on the mattress?
DD turning 13 and still in the children’s bed we bought for her age 3.
It was only an Argos bed but mattress we chose was orthopaedic pocket sprung and very firm/orthopaedic. Don’t think crazy expensive but likely mid-good range in Argos 10 years ago. Read at the time that the firmer the better for young kids.
Anyway, she has grown lots and we agreed for her birthday to upgrade her to an adult bed as she is adult sized now. She wants a double bed which I think is reasonable.
She has choosen a reasonable bed from Argos (discounted & nectar points made it just £200 Bargin.
I feel nervous buying the mattress from Argos and you can’t try them!
I went to a few bed shops like Dreams and furniture village and we tried some. Seems £450 is entrance price/acceptable?
The one she liked and look good quality are £700-900!!!
That seems so much but it’s been a long time since I bought a mattress (except my own tempur one) and it seemed a lot!
I know lots of people buy Emma or simba rolled up foam mattresses but she runs hot and doesn’t like the feels.
One shop had a Mlily which were combine foam/sprung but everyone I know says foam do begin to remember your dent with time.
Anyone advise?
The shops have models made just for them (well the name and label is anyway) to prevent people comparing them and getting cheaper.
arghhh pleas help. Reasonable price?
recommendations firm orthopaedic type sprung mattress and best places to buy.
i didn’t bargin for spending best part of £1000 😬
