For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I think the only way to test a mattress is to really lie on it for a while so be prepared to go to a good furniture store and do just that. If they really understand this, they won't query you. Also ask whether it's possible to have a mattress on approval to test. They may say "No" but if you don't take the plastic wrapper off they might not have a problem. I agree, it's very difficult to choose a new bed or mattress because it's an expensive mistake if you get it wrong, but ask yourself a few questions first:
Do you like a firm mattress without much "padding"
Do you like a firm mattress but with lots of "padding"
Do you prefer a "softer" type mattress?
What is your weight? Do you have a lot of body fat which needs to be accommodated, in which case a very firm mattress without padding might feel very uncomfortable..
How long is the mattress guaranteed for? (This may give a clue to its quality).
In general, the more you pay, the better the quality and I feel you spend so much of your life in bed it's one domestic item not worth skimping on.
As for choosing pillows, try phoning the Housekeeping department of a few hotels and ask which brand they use. Bedding in hotels gets pretty heavy use so I imagine they will tend to pick good quality comfortable items.
i had a new bed 2months ago and felt the same anxieties, i have 6 bulging discs and a muscle problem, someone advised 'Tempur', but when i looked they were very expensive even with a 60 day trial, so i surfed the web and found "Topsleep" at Norwich, they offered 60day trial and free next day delivery at a much better price, i have just read that you want to avoid memory foam, which of course this is, but i went ahead and have been well satisfied and wont be sending it back.
Good luck
I suffer from a really stiff neck and regularly go the the chiropractor for this and I found an excellent pillow to help and it's Dunlopillo. You can get them in Argos for about �16-18. They're so springy but still very soft. It's got this excellent foam which your head just sinks into. I've had mine for about a year now and it hasn't gone flat at all.
We also recently purchased a new mattress and bought a Miracoil Silent night. It's lovely and bouncy and medium firm. We decided to buy a medium priced one and then bought a mattress topper made from memory foam. Again both items bought from Argos. The memory foam is fantastic as it moulds to your body when it gets your body heat.
My bed is my sanctuary at the moment because I love it so much. I lay down and I slowly sink into to mattress and pillow....mmmmm am getting all tired now
remember you spend half your life in bed so why not get something that's good
