Bed Mattress

[Baht Simpson]

I shall be looking to buy a new bed in the New Year. Probably a King Size.

 

Does anyone have a recommendation for a medium firm mattress, possibly with a divan base?  

Something in the medium price range.

 

It's a fair few years since I bought a mattress so I'm

a bit out of touch with which brands are fair quality.

[KhunLA]

HomePro has a bed & bed selection/vendor, and probably where I'd start if looking for a new mattress.

 

Medium price range ???  I would expect to pay ฿30k +/- for a new mattress, as that was the ballpark of last mattress we bought.  Think that was about 15 yrs ago, if not longer, and still in fine shape.   Worth every baht.

Mattress City has some good brands often with decent discounts:

I looked at some in homepro and Sera Grande or similar name was quite good for medium/firm mattress. Think it was on sale for just under 20000bht .

Also if you look at ones on homepro online with great reviews and then Google the same mattress you will find out about two thirds are not as good as homepro reviews say.

If you can find a dunlopillo latex you will consider it to be the most exquisite mattress that you've ever had the good fortune to sleep on. It'll probably cost you 30 to 50,000 but it's really worth it.

Yes, I had a latex mattress in the U.K. but I'm a bit concerned it might retain the heat here a little more as opposed to a traditional one. Do you find that or is it nothing to worry about?

Thank you for all the replies. Plenty to think about now.

Have a look at the "NOOZE" range.

Have 2 kingsize in the house now & everybody finds them great 

[SupermaNZ]

Perhaps consider CT Mattress, Sleepyhead Chiropractic Accord, Slumberland Perfection, Sealy Posturepedic Active, Sealy Posturepedic Lucern (Robinsons has had the latter on special for around 20,900 baht in the past), and Dunlopillo Malton 6ft - the latter have been discounted from 55,414 to 21,190 Baht by HomePro in the past.  I have included a few images of bed sales shopping trips for background .... Moral of the story - keep your eye peeled for these sales (New Years is a great sales period in Thailand, actually - so a great time to buy a bed/mattress etc) ..... This site (https://purple.com/blog/different-king-size-beds) has a helpful bed size/shape comparison.  Hope this helps ....

He does good quality hotel standard mattresses, so they last.

Bought this bed in a box mattress opus one from Pauler over a year ago. Best mattress I've ever had. I really wasn't expecting it to be that good since it wasn't expensive.

I went on a mattress hunt, went to every furniture store Home Pro, Thaiwatsudu, MegaHome mattress specialty stores, all of them. The mattresses were either too soft too hard, price not an object and determined not to pay for something that I’d regret and found a Salik Roma latex. Absolutely perfect. I paid about 7500 for. 60000 for a soft back aching mattress, no way man.

Ikea have decent mattress for decent price.

Not to forget a good quality of a top mattress, that's the most important detail to  comfortable sleep

I spent $2000 for my mattress in the US, the mattress I bought here , roughly $250usd 7500 bht is so much more comfortable

What a ridiculous scam mattress pricing is.  It is impossible to figure out if a sale is really a sale or to correlate price to quality.  It's true in the USA too.

You mean that they let you sleep, 4uck and whatever on it for a year, then you say you don't like it.............have it back. I think not.

But HOW do you choose one if you cannot 'try it out' for say a month. 

I paid 30,000 12 years ago and it's still going strong, They do recommend changing after 8 years, and yet there are ads on UK TV for mattresses with a 12 or 16 year warranty.  Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

Can anyone explain what 'Memory Foam' is please? It is supposed to go back to it's original shape when you get off it. So does that not imply NO memory.

Saying that, my brother bought one with memory foam, but it developed Alzeheimer's . 555

 But I think I got a great deal, and it was on sale for a whopping 400 bht discount.

IKEA mattresses are odd sizes. They may not fit your bed frame.

I suppose they do that to force you to buy their bedsheets. It's the same with their pots and pans: They are also odd sizes so that you have to buy your lids from them.
