Fed up of bad mattresses 04:56 - Dec 8 with 1461 viewsMalcolmMeatballHead

Any advice would be appreciated. I obviously sleep alone my bed is really uncomfortable. Basically I have a really bad quality mattress with bumpy bits in and it makes my ribs hurt the next day as I sleep on my front and my mattress beats me up during the night I swear

Last night I tried to use a FLEECE BLANKET to soften things but it just made me sweat like HELL. FFS it's so cold but I can't even get comfortable and warm. I proper miss those summer days when we were all melting. Haha. Great memories

Sorry I didn't even get to my question which was:

How can you make a lumpy mattress more soft (without using a FLEECE BLANKET which makes me sweat)

When I was young I used to go camping with the local butcher who was a friend of my nephew and he always had loads of those foam roll out matt's that were ideal for camping and sleeping on. Do they still sell those roll out matt things and if so do they sell them at Argos or Wilko's or any other place please?

Have you tried turning it, upside down and spun around. Or get one of those Emma mattresses or equivalent. People rave about them. No personal experience though as I spent loads on my mattress last year.

Definitely invest in a memory foam mattress topper if you don't fancy buying a whole new mattress

You can still get the roll out foam mats Malcolm.
Got my last one for camping at Go Outdoors.

Alternatively, don't keep your lottery winnings under the mattress

We have no village green, or a shop. It's very, very quiet. I can walk to the pub.

Are you turning your mattress regularly?

I don't mean just turning it round but also flipping it over, ideally you should do that every 6-8 weeks if not it will settle with 'lumps'

It sounds like you have a tense mattress. In which case, stick on some Enya, light a few candles, get the essential oils out and massage away using one of those wooden tools that looks vaguely like a rudimentary drawing of an F1 car. You should notice an immediate improvement in the mood of the mattress and those lumps will become distant memories. Don't forget to make it a cup of lapsang souchong afterwards.

Loads of mattresses nowadays are one-sided, you can't even turn them over.

Good Lord! Whatever is it?

Yes, but I’m assuming the OPs mattress is 20 years old with springs and horse hair hanging out. I bought my £1800 mattress last year and you have to turn and spin it every month in a certain order. Mattresses are extremely important in our lives. We spend many hours mainly sleeping on them, so need to be changed every few years.

OP should look into getting a self-turning mattress.
