Pop-top foam mattres replacement

[sharkjazz]

Morning all,

Am looking to replace the mattress foam for the t25 pop top bed. At the moment is just some horrible, nasty yellow foam off cuts that really plays my back up (probably part foam, part cold coming up as this foam has zero insulation).

Was looking at Justkampers

Couple of questions really,

1) Any one got foam mattress recommendations for someone who suffers from a bad back?
2) Is the foam easy to fit? I seem to remember the foam being attached to the wooden roof panel in a friends van (although it might have just have been laid on)

Thanks all

The most common foam on the market is the blue stuff which is like sleeping on concrete. I have bought a memory foam mattress topper off ebay & I will be trying it out at RTTH this weekend.

Give Mark a ring. He will sort you out with what even you need and is also in Leeds

Got back from RTTH yesterday. Had two good nights sleep on the comfy new memory foam mattress topper. Highly recommended.

When it comes to foam you need to get foam with a hardness between 8Kpa and about 11Kpa hardness. Any softer than 8Kpa and you will feel the board underneath any harder and it wont offer any comfort.

We use these people at work for foam block for prototype seat foams http://www.recticel.co.uk/?gclid=CKuPls ... 4wodVAi2Lg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Thanks for the replies.

Do you just lay it on the wooden frame or have it attached (glued?) ?
