Jai Dee Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Can you find futon mattress in bangkok ? Maybe in one of the Central stores... Try Chidlom or Bang Na first... they seem to have a farily extensive range of all home goods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's locally made and looks to be very good quality. AlexD Bangkok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdinasia Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 a decent mattress should be between 6k and 8k at a discount place .... I have seen them all the way up to 65K in Centra;Robinsons and Index Mall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furbie Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Try MBK on the 5th (?) floor where all the furniture shops are. There are a couple of mattress stores there. My advice, splurge a little – you spend 1/3 of your life on a mattress, get good ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulbangkok Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 (edited) I bought a decent King Size one from a small furniture store in the Khlong Toei area for 4500 baht, i've seen loads of similar small stores all over the place that sell home furniture and would recommend one of those over a dept. store or MBK as they will negotiate and will also sort out the delivery there and then no hassles! Pratnum market... would be a good place to start. Edited June 20, 2007 by Paulbangkok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bino Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I had the same problem a few years ago when I was living in rented apartments that had cheap Thai mattresses that felt llike they were made from plywood. I was waking up sore and stiff every morning. I bought a proper Sealy spring matress at Robinson's for less than 10,000 bt (queen size) and put it on top of the Thai mattress. Soooo comfortable, and wake up feeling fine every day. I agree with Furbie- when you consider that you will spend a third of your lifetime sleeping, a decent mattress is a good investment!

bino Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 (edited) Just realised this thread is from 2005 <deleted> ??? <deleted> is right.... I didn't catch it either. Probably a case of the newbie AlexD dragging it up from obscurity because he has some interest in the 30,000 THB futons at the URL he posted.
