Hard mattress but cheap mattress, what is inside ? Foam ? Local shops ?

Featured Replies

hello, when looking for a cheap mattress but a hard one, do you know what is inside the ones sold by local shops ?

 

The best hard mattresses are 100% rubber but they are expensive. Can you confirm that the ones in hotels are rubber ? or what is this ?

 

I do not want springs or anything similar.

 

What kind of hard mattress can you find ? Is there a rock hard foam ? Or what else do the local shops use in their cheap mattresses? Are they durable ?

 

Thank you.

When you get into the bed, the mattress remembers you from the pervious night

And so if you decide to sleep on your other side, or turn over in the night, what happens.

 

And at my age I do not get many PERVIOUS nights anymore!  lol

The mattress remembers your every move , it remembers what time to went to sleep and what time you woke up , it also remembers whether you had a boom-boom or not

You just can’t get it off your mind. ????

 

The ex bought one once when it was on sale and using her employee discount.   I was a little skeptical at first as I nearly felt like I was sleeping on the second floor due to the thickness of the thing.    It  was long way to the floor when I woke up in the morning.

 

I came to love the mattress and wish I had it back today.

Are they hard like rubber ?

 

Search for this on Google image search: ที่นอนใยมะพร้าว

These types of mattresses are probably the cheapest ones, and usually very hard. Coconut fibers in the middle, covered by a thin foam layer.

 

try to find one with internal springs, circa minimum number of 2,000. 

The best beds are 100% rubber? 

 

Oh....kay.....

After a long time suffering on Thai matrasses in rent condos …., I bought a Dunloppilo latex matrass , and I still remember the first moment after Home pro delivered the very heavy thing ….. I just lied down on it …. and said to myself   I don't go out for a few nights, just enjoy sleeping  ….. " it's like sleeping on a cloud " ????

Don't forget what goes under the mattress is also important.
Also bed size in Thailand seems to be narrower and shorter.

Thai coconut fiber mattress are pretty good, if you want a very firm mattress and cheap, that's the way to go. I've slept on many over the years. I have back issues and prefer very firm mattress.

Hard and cheap mattress ?

Don't use a mattress! Just buy one of these "top up" for mattress. (about 5-7 cm thick)

It's what I did last 2 years, and I slept very well ????

Okay, sorry to interrupt these musings. have good night, I know that I will. 

The only good strong mattress has rubber and it should be cheap in Thailand, so why are they so expensive ?

Spring mattresses are ridiculous and just a chance for more problems, I can't believe that anybody is still using them.

These covers are ridiculous.

You do not fix $hit by adding a layer on it.

How many you would need to make it 25 cm. like the mattress ....?

x times price , but maybe  no need anymore for mattress with 2 above each other on a wooden bottom  ? 

could be a money saver ????

 

As my Dunloppilo is heavy as lead to handle (can not turn over anyway as only 1 side to sleep on , as bottom rock-hard .
