Hi everyone,
I checked the website of seahorse, and had phoned them. They told me that the cheapest of the 6 inch thick single mattress is the "crystal" brand.
The price now, 14.6.09, on "offer" is SGD 72.
The delivery charge is SGD 29.50 per trip.
They told me they have no more stock for the 2.5 inch type "crystal" single mattress, and so no price is given to me.
But they have another one 2.5 inch thick mattress. It is the "healthy" brand, which is 2.5 inch thick, and is it is the hard type.
They said it is suited for people who prefer hard mattres for their tired back or back-ache back.
So they said it may be hard for the young and the youngsters if they are not used to it and cannot take it.
The price for this single mattress of this "healthy" brand is SGD 99.00.
One of the catches they said is that the single bed frame may not have "insert" depth - of less tha 2.5 inch depth on the bed frame. They said the single bed frame normally has a insert depth of more than 2.5 or even at 3 inch depth.
It is thus caused the mattress when inserted into the bed frame to level with the side frame of the bed. It will sink below the side frame of the bed when sat on a 2.5 inch thick mattress.
And, if the mattress is sat over a period of time, the mattress may sunk even more. This may hurt the buttock, if the 2.5 inch mattress is sunk in, and when the buttock is sat on the matress, the butttock may sat on the side bed frame instead.
And so it may hurt the buttock if sat on it the frame abrupty. So they said it may be more suitable to buy a 6 inch thick mattres instead.
The "crystal" brand is the cheapesr of the rest and is SGD 72 only. They aid this "crystal" brand mattress can generally last "several" years. But I am not sure of theri words on it. Can anyone advise of their experience of it on this?.
Please share your experience and findings of this "crystal" brand mattress. Thx
