I can't offer any prices I'm afraid, but I do think that mattresses are one of those things that it's worth spending out a bit more for. After all you get a lot of use out of it.

You dont want soft matress worse thing ever no good. Definet medium to hard matress are the best to go for I went to local factory who makes them looked online first then checked with them prices then went there found they were much cheaper direct at the factory ideal if any around your area to save alot money I paid £80 it should of been £160 to £200 in the shop. I also picked item up my self so saved on delivery charges

Yep. Mine costs me more than the bed it's on. I think about £350+ for the bed and £450.00 for the mattress (whole lot was close to £800 anyway). You can pay a lot less but like erekose said it's worth it. Although the salesmen talk some **** weighing what I do and sleeping the same 8 hours a day as most means it needed to be good. The difference between this bed and the futon I had before was out of this world.

I heartily recommend Ikea mattresses. Firm, supportive, durable, cheap.

Mine was £200 for a single bed one, worth every penny.

Agree totally. My last mattress cost £350 quid which I thought was very expensive but it was totally worth it for the comfort every night

£140 will get you the largest mattress in this range: http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/00073384

I agree with John Kerr, all 3 double beds in the house have an IKEA mattress and they are extremely comfy and have lasted ages

Go around lots of bed shops and try them out, - as said above, it's definitely worth paying out £££ for a decent one. £2,000 for example might sound like a lot for a bed, but over 10+ years it really isn't for something you'll spend 1/3 of your life on. Sheets & quilt/pillow covers are also important, go for 100% cotton. Also pillows, - you can spend a fortune on them too, - don't be getting cheap and nasty toot you'll be glad you didn't

I think mines a 500. But it's a massive bed - great to sprawl across.
