transam Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Best one I ever had was a Dunlopillo....Made from some sort of rubber...Great for allergy sufferers too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 If your defintion of a good matress includes rock hard then you'll be spoiled for choice. If you want something softer, options are more limited. You can buy latex mattresses online (company called Patex is especially good value) or you can spring for memory foam (Tempurpedic, Lady Americana) which are expensive. Home Pro carries both the various brands of hard mattresses and Lafy Americana. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bay Ridge Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 I'm living near Udom Suk BTS. I know these mattresses can be expensive, especially at malls, but I'm willing to spend a bit for a good one. Still not willing to spend mall prices. I saw some crazy priced ones in Central Bangna. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenslegs Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 IKEA have some good mattresses at reasonable prices. I expect they will deliver in the Bangkok area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavy and tough as nails! I can have the worst sleep on these (as-is) BUT the the trick to add a good latex topper and sleep heavenly :) Actually, I bought one in Australia and you'd laugh at what I paid. Edit: BTW Latex beds can be hot to sleep on. We had a full latex before (the coconut coir) and it was HOT. The difference is you do not sink into these harder beds with a latex topper on top. Have better support and good thing is they are cheap in Thailand. Edited March 28, 2017 by Youbloodybeauty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lungbing Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 "Coventry is soft touches that will make you have time of rest that fulfilled with joy. " Quoted from the dunlopillo web site about the Coventry mattress. Why don't they ever get a decent proof reader? Face? They lose more face when people read this corruption of English then laugh at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shady86 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I just bought one 6 months back about 15k baht. Lotus brand. Anything above 10k should be reliable and worth considering 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutsiwarrior Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I bought a european firm mattress from Homepro some years back...it was expensive (20k+ including fancy bedstead) but a good investment...the cheap locally produced mattresses aren't worth a shit...maybe because falangs weigh 2x more than the locals... recently been spendin' a lot of time in bed 'cause of a broken leg and the investment has paid fer itself in comfort many times over...I'll probably die on that mattress... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutsiwarrior Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I also got a very sturdy rattan sofa downstairs that came with upholstered foam cushions, already about 13 y.o....very comfortable fer an afternoon nap...when the kids come down to play sometimes I note that there's no associated noise and then find them peacefully asleep on the cushions...the cushions have the same effect on the older teenaged nieces with a pleasing resulting aspect... the step daughter eyes me so as to say: 'ye ain't gonna trick me with them cushions, tutsi...' and she reclines on the polished tile floor... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zhangxifu Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Home Pros have amazingly good discounts for expensive stuff they can't get rid of. Might depend on your location though. I'm at Pattaya. 30-40 K Sealy for 12-15K is possible. A good quality mattress is a smart investment for longterm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pieeyed Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Their are many good mattresses. Homepro has atter od selection and it is best if you can catch a sale. I bought a top of the line Sealy 11 years ago and it is one of the best investments I have made in Thailand. Nothing like a good mattress for a good sleep.

Just remember that some brands are imported and thus much more expensive than a similar quality locally manufactured mattress. Most brands have a brand sales rep on the floor in HomePro, whom you can negotiate with. I bought a top of the range Lotus mattress 5 years ago, and had it custom made to be a foot longer and wider than a king size. Had to get it into the bedroom via the balcony though, as it wouldn't fit through the staircase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
