Handmade in the UK, this medium/firm mattress provides you with plenty of orthopaedic support but with a softer, more luxurious feel for a fabulous night�s sleep. The process includes the artisan skill of hand tufting, which secures the filling in place to keep the mattress plump and lump-free for years to come. Alongside these traditional mattress-making techniques, the Shire Cool Memory Classic Mattress also includes a layer of space-age memory foam that cushions and supports your body.The Shire Cool Memory Classic Mattress comes with a one-year guarantee for peace of mind, and is delivered to your door. The Shire Bed Company is an NBF-approved manufacturer and conforms to the Federation�s Code of Practice, so you know you�re dealing with a reputable and trustworthy maker. The mattress is approximately 22cm deep and fits most standard size divans and bases.The Shire Cool Memory Classic Mattress uses a traditional open coil spring matrix made from high-tensile steel springs joined together in a lattice formation for flawless support. This is one of the most common forms of construction and is complemented by a 2cm layer of memory foam for added cushioning and comfort.The Shire Cool Memory Classic Mattress is hypoallergenic, meaning there�s no place for dust mites to hide! The open coil spring system also allows air to flow freely throughout the whole mattress, keeping dust to a minimum and making this mattress a great choice for anyone suffering from respiratory conditions such as asthma, or allergies to dust and mites.If you have back problems, or simply prefer a firmer mattress, then the Shire Cool Memory Classic Mattress is rated as medium to firm. That means it offers slightly more support than a typical medium mattress, while the memory foam layer cradles the body and keeps the spine in a neutral position, minimising pressure points along the body and giving you a more restful night�s sleep.
