New mattress, which type?

[johnk]

I'm looking for a new mattress but not sure which is the best type or make. I prefer a medium firmness type. Anyone any ideas or recomendations

Memory foam, the best ever, pricey but great!!

Ratter, thanks, I'll take a look at those. Why is it called memory foam?

I love my pocket spring with memory foam top it's the best mattress I've slept on.

If money is no object Tempur. We have one which we bought a few years back when we had enough money to just about afford one. Still as good as new.

Electric adjustable with memory foam over pocket springs - best thing ever!

A bed is a very personal thing. I'd go lay on a few to see what you like. If you can afford it go for a Vi Spring. Hand made but VERY comfortable.

I'll go for the pocket sprung with memory foam, hope it won't get too hot as I tend to get pretty warm at night.
