    Hi Stephen

    I can't find that Sealy model anywhere that I have checked. How old is it ?

    AS regards our own stock, we have many major brands but as discounted prices. We have Sealy 4 drawer bases for €250 in kingsize. Give me a call and we can see if we have something to suit you.

    Hi Stephen

    If it's 15 years old I would not be able to find any info on it at this stage but if it's still in good condition then you should still be able to use it on a new mattress. I will check in the warehouse tomorrow to see what we have in sprung top bases for you.

    Hiya

    Looking to get 2 standard doubles and 2 singles. For a rented house but want good solid quality. Budget wise maybe 250 and less per double and 150 and less per single.

    Thanks a lot

    Hi ChewyLuey,

    Is it complete beds that you need or just mattresses?

    Thanks

    Hi ChewyLuey

    We have a very small number of the Signature Sleep Pocket Sprung mattresses left that we can let you have for :

    Singles €149

    Double/ King €249

    Loads of guys on boards got them and all were quite happy with them as far as I am aware. We sold 1000 of them with no issues. We will have plenty of other models as well. Where would delivery be to ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 223 ✭✭ChewyLuey


    Thanks very much, location is Kerry. Are they vacuum packed?

    Hi

    Yes they are but unlike most vacuum packed, you don't have to wait 24 hours to use them. Once you open them they spring to life immediately. We were only in Tralee and Kilarney on Friday ourselves delivering. Delivery is free when in your area. If you need in a hurry we can send with DPD for next day delivery at a subsidised rate of €9 each. Thanks

    Hi chrislad

    We have so many different ones but the 5000 pocket sprung ones from John Lewis that we are promoting at 499 euro are really good value. They are manufactured by Harrison Spinks in UK. Loads of guys on boards got them already.

    Hi Mick,
    What exactly does the 5000 mean? I was looking elsewhere and a kingsize mattress was advertised as
    190 pocket springs/sq.m.

    Also, when could you deliver to Kilcock Co Kildare?
    Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 813 ✭✭✭SEORG


    Hi Mick,

    Do you have the John Lewis mattress in super kingsize?

    Thanks

    Hi there.

    The John Lewis 5000 pocket sprung mattress has 5000 individual pocket springs inside. See attached link to an actual mattress in production :

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bq3CMfp-tA0



    The lowest pocket spring count that I have ever heard of is 600 in a kingsize. All pocket spring counts are based on a kingsize mattress. In other words if it says 2000 pocket then a double mattress could have about 1600 where as a Superking (6ft) may have about 2400 pocket springs . This is just a guide.

    The 190 pocket sprung per sq.m would equal 570 pocket in a kingsize mattress. The lowest pocket mattress we stock is 1000 pocket normally.

    Delivery is free nationwide. We are in Kilcock most days. Can deliver Thursday or Saturday this week for sure.

    Hi

    We got hundreds of these mattresses in all sizes except Superkingsize. We do have some Harrison (Same manufacturer) in Superkingsize. We also have a beautiful range of superking mattresses which we have each model always in stock in Superkingsize. Could you call to us to try them out ? We have plenty of Sealy, Breasley, Silentnight and others in Superkingsize in stock also.

    Thanks

    Hey all,

    Coming up from Sligo either this weekend or early next month for a big enough purchase I'd say.

    Looking at the John Lewis mattress.. and maybe even an upgrade to bed too.

    But also potentially a (cheap and cheerful) sofa bed for a spare room. Will be used primarily as a sofa to be honest.. and occasional bed if stuck or missus has the huff with me! :D

    Also do you do any sofa sets (e.g 3 seater + 2 seater)? Doesn't seem to be any on site at minute: https://bigmickey.ie/product-category/sofa-sets/

    Hi Basq

    We got a complete new site about 2 months ago and we have 2 staff full time updating it. The best bargains are always going to be in store as much of our stock never makes it on to our site. From reading your post I have no doubt that we can cater for all your needs.

    Thanks

    Hypnos are a decent brand. We are not agents for them but get job lots of them from time to time. Had a quick look on google at it. There is a shallow pillow top on it which is a good thing. I have seen some pillow tops dipping over the years. I am not a big fan of pillow tops for this reason as you can't turn these types and quite a few of them hold the shape of your body in the pillow top.

    I would think that one of our John Lewis 5000 pocket sprung models for €499 delivered would be much better value. We have them on display

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bq3CMfp-tA0

    WE have over 1000 mattresses in stock if you want to call to us to try some.

    Hey Bigmickey,

    Looking for good quality double mattress for a 4ft6 timber frame bed. What would you recommend from €500-700?

    Would delivery be free to Clare and do you charge to take existing mattress away?

    Thanks.

    Hi Claw09

    How far apart are the latts on your bed ? With some pocket sprung mattresses they can't be too far apart. The John Lewis models that we have for €499 are exceptional value but we have mattresses in stock from 99 euro to 3000 euro so we have pretty much everything. Delivery is free to Clare. We can take away the old mattress for €15 which goes to a licenced recycler.

    Thanks

    I just purchased a superking size mattress from a certain store, and I hate it, its way to firm. So I am gonna send it back.

    We have a very large selection of Superking in stock. We have from very soft to very firm. If delivery is Dublin then we offer a next day service to room of your choice for no extra charge. The other mattress that you bought, did you buy on line or in store ?

    These can take a European size mattresses but you can put a standard size mattress in them also.

    European size 140cm X 200cm

    Standard size 135cm X 190cm

    There is quite a lot of assembly on these and not for the amateur assembler. It takes our guy and a helper who is used to them close to 3 hours. It took him 6 hours the first time he done one. I will check in the morning if there is anything that I can do a special on. We have them both on display in our showroom in Longford if you wish to view in advance of purchase.

    Thanks for the quick reply Mick, we'll be painting the bedroom this weekend so not immediate, just happened upon this thread and we had been talking about a new mattress seeing as we were doing up the bedroom so thought I'd ask.
    I'm a firm believer on getting a very good mattress seeing as we spend so much time there.
    Don't want one you have to turn every 6 months.
