Before choosing your bed, one of the key considerations you must take into
account is the size and sometimes sizes can vary from place to place; our sizes
are based on UK bed sizes. Below is a diagram to help explain the dimensions
of all our different sized beds.

All of our beds conform to BS 7177 Medium
Hazard (Crib 5) Fire Regulations. This
regulation means that the beds have been
declared safe for use in many commercial
settings such as Boarding Schools, Halls
of Residence at Universities and Colleges,
Leisure Parks, Chalets, Hospitals, Hostels,
Hotels and many more.
We opt for multi layered mattress fillings. Each
layer brings another layer of comfort, support and
structure to the mattress, allowing for a comfortable
nights sleep every single night. Our special
combination of filling also means our mattresses are
durable and long lasting, meeting the needs of even
the busiest hotels.
Pocket springs are the spring type of choice in all the high-end beds. The springs
are individually nested so each sleeper on the mattress will receive support
based on their own weight and sleeping style.
Open coil spring units consist of columns of springs all connected together to
create the main interior of your mattress, the gauge of these coils determine how
hard or soft your mattress will be, for example, a 12 gauge spring will be firmer
than a 13.5 gauge spring. For clarity gauges work a bit back to front with open
coil models, the smaller the gauge the firmer the spring.
Pocket spring mattresses contain individual springs all layered next to each other,
these springs act individually and give your mattress something we call anti-roll.
With a pocket spring each person receives individual support based on their
position, the more weight applied in certain areas will have the affected pockets
reacting to the load and supporting your body.

But the spring is only half the story, we also have to take into consideration the
fillings layered on the spring that will essentially give your new mattress its overall
feel under your body. Open coil springs are generally great value for money.
