Advantages: Memory foam built into mattress for a better night's sleep Disadvantages: Drawers are a little stiff when new
given good service so I looked at what was available in their range. I saw the Myers Visco Sublime Bed on the Co-op web site and it seemed like reasonably good value for a memory foam mattress from a reputable manufacturer at £449 for the double bed.
The Myers Visco Sublime Bed has a 70 mm layer of Visco-elastic memory foam which conforms to the heat of your body to mould the mattress to give total support. This is set on top of one of Myer's Bonnell spring units which gives the ultimate comfort and support combination.
I selected the drawer divan option which came with four large storage drawers built into the base of the bed which provide ample storage for spare bedding (and other bits of sundry junk that I seem very adept at collecting!)

Advantages: No springs to wear out and poke through Disadvantages: light so can move when you're fitting sheet
We had been looking for a new bed for ages and hadn't found anything that was soft enough to be comfortable yet offered enough support for us. My partner suffers from back and neck pains so support with comfort was important. We had bad experiences with even expensive sprung mattresses wearing out quickly and so weren't keen on getting even a top of the range sprung mattress. When we found a Dunlopillo stockist and tried out their range we were delighted. They offer a range from 100% latex (most expensive) to I think 25% latex 75% dunlopreme foam (cheapest) in various firmness and base options (sprung slat, sprung edge and platform). The Flamenco is a 50% Latex 50% Dunlopreme foam matress and we had the platform base as the matress felt firmer and so suited us better. Since buying it we wake up feeling as if we have had a sound ...
Advantages: Very comfortable with good storage under the base. Disadvantages: You don't want to get out of it!!!
I received my new Sealy bed about 6 weeks ago. I suffer from a bad back - so having read the reviews on the bed which has twice as many springs for extra support as a normal bed I was convinced this would only improve my nights sleep. i was right. The sealy bed is very comfortable - with a layer of memory foam on the top, this may sound odd but its also a very warm bed. It tends to hold body heat which if you're always cold like me is a bonus.
Mine came with four drawers which are very useful as - its a double bed, the storage available within the four drawers is very handy and out of sight.
The bed is light and easy to assemble.
The only thing I had to get used to is it stands higher off the ground than my previous bed. So at first it seemed like I was having to climb into it - but you get used to this after a while ...
