After another sleepless night

[rosieglen]

 I am going out to buy a new mattress.

Has anyone here  had either a memory foam or latex mattress - what are the pros and cons?

How could anyone sell a waterbed new (from a shop) without a heater pad and temp control?

[joz*garage]

mebbe a heater wasnt a standard item for waterbeds 30 +years ago, buggard if i know 

[cherry*135]

YES they were. I owned one 30 years ago, heater pads & temp control were standard. That was the whole point of water beds, to heat them to a level that suits you.. cooler in summer, warmer in winter.

[cherry*135]

So can anyone with a memory foam mattress tell me if it remains firm or does it

develop a sag?  A local place is having a sale of them.

Also a sale of duckdown mattress toppers.  

Any experiences there please?>

I am happy with my topper - it is quite warm and am wondering how it will go in the summer but is VERY comfortable

Go to  the website product review au and see which retailers to trust.

Avoid companys who use computers to measure you and then try and sell you $150 latex pillows.

I found the cheapest and best was from Harvey norman, as much as I dislike the owner they have good deals and Sleepmaker is Australian made.

Also their delivery drivers have two deliverymen and carried it sraight into the room.

I went for a medium with a latex pillow top.

Make sure you get the better spring setup 'miracoil'

Latex gets hot in summer, so if you do not have bedroom cooling  think about it.
