Beds and matresses

We bought an Emma mattress nearly a year ago and we love it. Best mattress we've ever had.

Ive had arthritis in my spin for over 15 years now and I had got to a point where I couldn’t get out of bed in the mornings even though I had an orthodontic mattress. I tried a tempur mattress, which I got direct from tempur on line as they offered a 90 day trial period. It was wonderful, almost from day one I couldn’t believe the difference in the mornings. I didn’t make me too hot either. I had it for year (probably longer than you are supposed to have a mattress). I’m a big girl and it didn’t sag with time either. When I did replace it, I bought a different brand of memory foam mattress which was almost as expensive but right from the start wasn’t as comfortable and didn’t last. I bought a new tempur only 2 years later - buy cheap buy twice ! I suggest you Go direct to tempur on line and get one on a trial period, then if it doesn’t suit you, you can return it(they collect). But I’m sure you’ll keep it ??

I notice in another post someone said they bought an Emma mattress and love it. It was an Emma that I bought to replace my tempur mattress and ended up getting rid of it after only 2 years. So it goes to show you need to try them. If I recall correctly Emma do a trial period too.

Have you ever tried staying at a Premier Inn for a couple of nights to see if their mattresses suit you? I have to say I do find them very comfortable, and I've had back problems for years. If you don't like them at least you haven't bought one.

We've had a Tempur mattress for a few years. Yes - it can get hot, but it's the most comfortable mattress we've ever had. We bought it from a shop that had a number of different 'grades' of the mattresses. The assistant told us to try the cheapest and go up the grades until we found one which we loved - he said if we started with the most expensive, nothing else would do. We chose a mid range one and it's been marvelous.
