Expat Living (Singapore)

It was time for our European King mattress in the master bedroom to be replaced. It was too hard and uncomforta­ble. I was waking up with aches and pains, sleeping poorly and was never feeling rested. However, my husband Jon was happy so it took quite a bit of persuading – he was quite attached to his mattress!

We were specifical­ly looking for a mattress to provide comfort and support and keep us cool, while also being ecofriendl­y and toxin-free. We wanted a more restful sleep from a mattress that offered minimal disturbanc­e.

Latex seemed to tick all our boxes, particular­ly its allergy-friendly and mouldresis­tant aspects. Having a mattress that doesn’t harbour mould and dust mites was top of my list, especially with Singapore’s damp and humid conditions.

We chose to buy from Willow Mattress as the mattresses are 100 percent natural latex, and well-priced – we loved the unique three-layer adjustable system they offer, too. We were able to choose the half-and-half king-sized mattress, which allowed us to change each half to suit our different preference­s.

We went into the store and agreed on the “medium” feel, and that’s how it was set up when it was delivered. However, after three days, my husband was complainin­g it was too soft and that his old back pain was returning. He wanted to send the mattress back! Yet I’d had the most comfortabl­e sleep for a long time, waking with less body pain. So, we simply changed the order of the three layers to make Jon’s firm. He never mentioned back pain again!

Chantal and the delivery team were so profession­al and always went above and beyond. It was a wonderful experience, from the purchasing to going to bed in comfort every night. We also loved that they took away the old mattress for recycling, which made the change so much easier. We got a set of free pillows, too!
