Hello - anyone out there?

[wolf63]

Do all mattresses have springs? I have a wooden frame bed which currently has a silentnight mattress. Half a dozen or so coils have fallen out (the cats really need to lose weight) and I want to buy a new mattress.

Not Silentnight - this one hasn't lasted very long, even taking into account the weight load issue.

wolfie - our Mirocoil started to collapse around the edges - there was no roll together, but if you sat on the edge on the bed, you ended up on the floor......hahaha

Yeah - I fell off the edge of the bed. I was lying on the bed doing my sudoku and leaned over to scratch Frankie and I fell off - nearly landing on him. Thankfully cats move quickly.

jno - I am the Hippo. The cats (or the one in my avatar) usually sleeps across the bed (taking up half of the bed) but weighs less than a stone.

woof - if you mean 'that time of life' and all the other euphemisms I am not sure that it will hit me. I am 49 but have PCOS and there is every chance I haven't started ovulating.

wolf, I am also the hippo, so I am stuck where I am, as the duck has no wish to sleep on the crushed side. But if you don't actually have to share with any ducks, it sounds as though shifting to the other side of the bed and testing the springs there is the sensible thing to do. I shouldn't think the cat is fussy about which side it sleeps.

Just as well you cut and pasted the offending post before it was deleted! Otherwise we'd never know how improper it was...
