Default Buying a new mattress and Ikea

john brook wrote:
It was only a few years ago we bought an expensive Ikea sprung double
mattress and its now no longer flat but has hills and valleys. Also
it so heavy that its almost impossible for us to move about for
spring cleaning.
We thought we would buy a foam mattress now. Ikea do a double one
200x140x10cm for £60. Is this a good price or could we perhaps buy a
thicker one elswhere for the same money? Also we are wondering if
10cm is a bit thin, although we do prefer a firmer mattress and we
use a mattress pad.
The question is whether to buy at Ikea or can we find a better deal
elswhere? Thanks.


As far as foam mattresses are concerned I wouldn't get a 10cm one, mind you
they are also quite heavy and not easy to turn. I love mine allthough it's
just a "topper" and in laid on top of my standard mattress. The price of £60
also seems very cheap.
