Default Thanks to JTaylor-

Just thought I'd say a big thanks to James Taylor for his help selecting a quality bed..... but we have a problem.

James is an agent of a company who don't pay subs to advertise on SN, so in giving an endorsement of him and his company, I may fall foul of strict SN rules.

Tell you what, I'll be sneaky and chuck in a few subtle references. With any luck the mods won't notice

Recently, I've not been sleeping well and have had lots of bad Dreams. I realised that in order to stop these bad Dreams I would need to buy a new bed. Quick as a flash, James stepped in and found me a bed to suit my needs and budget. Now I can sleep on the deal I got from him today. I got a very high quality memory foam matress and bedstead for a good price. I look forward to sleeping on my new bed and enjpying a good night of zzzzz and no more bad dreams.

There you go James, I don't think the barsteward mods will notice my sneaky transgression!!

The average lifespan of 'good' mattress is between eight to ten years. However this can vary with some mattresses being changed much sooner due to not being 'comfy' anymore. Conversely it is not uncommon for some people to have had the same mattress in the excess of twenty years! Bearing in mind you lose up to a pint of moisture overnight and a pound of skin in a year which all ends up in your bed, this is inadvisable just from a hygienic point of view. A mattress should be comfortable and supportive not one or the other. In terms of what is the 'best' on the market currently I would say the memory/pocket sprung combination is proving very popular. This incorporates two of the best components for comfort (memory foam) and support (pocket spring). The memory foam has the ability to mould to your body and will and will provide a soft feel, after which the pocket spring will come into effect to support and hold you. This combination allows the mattress to be both soft and supportive and not 'wallowy' as can be the case with some soft mattresses.

Lou

Matress:

Dreams Bed Superstore

Bedstead

Dreams Bed Superstore

The matress is beautifully soft and supportive, you literally sink into it! If you like a little more firmness, you can go for a combination pocket spring visco elastic foam.

I liked the bedstead, classy, practical and masculine. Solid too, so should last the course!

Thanks for the endorsement, Paul. May I return the compliment and say how pleasant it was to deal with such a straight ahead, no nonsense customer. It's been a pleasure helping you and well worth the discount.

I'm glad Phill at Dartford looked after you, he's a top boy and a very good assistant manager.

Next time you hear from us will be when one of the girls from customer service calls to arrange a delivery date. I understand we're looking at pre-Christmas delivery, but should you have any questions then don't hesitate to give my mobile a buzz.

Best wishes and thanks for your custom,

James
