I am in the market for a new mattress and as these are less than half price at the moment (£399 for the king size) i'm very tempted. Seen a few ads in magazines, but can't find any decent reviews on them apart from the website....

Does anyone have any experience with these???

    all sounds like bollox to me. The more I read about how it isn't memory foam, the more it sounds like it probably is....

    If you're after a good night's sleep, just have a couple of glasses of port before hitting the sack.....

    Memory foam mattresses are fantastic if you enjoy sleeping on lava.

    You may find youself tossing and turning half the night to get away from the hotspots that develop at any point where your body touches the mattress/sheet.

    Better off with pocket sprung or Dunlopillo latex, IME. A thin memory foam layer on top of a pocket sprung base may also be OK.

    the main selling point of thee things though is that they are not memory foam and they have slats that help get rid of the heat???

    Might try to find somewhere close to see if i can test one out!

    Dunno. The mattress industry seems to attract all sorts of people pushing various stories.

    Try to talking to this lot, as I've heard they know what they're talking about:-
