Wooden. I can't begin to imagine. Sounds unpleasant.

Never had a mattress with springs? You must be young.

Been reading about latex mattresses: a bit like memory foam but cooler in summer apparently. And pocket-sprung mattresses and so on. I'm sick of how normal wire sprung mattresses go lumpy so want to try something else.

Maybe I could invent my own mattress by combining several mattress toppers.

There are certain things I just hate buying. Trousers, shoes, mattress.
