Coolmax mattress

We went to look at mattresses in Evsonas today. We were shown several memory foam ones and we mentioned that we'd heard that you shouldn't use an electric under blanket with them. There is no way we're giving up our electric blanket! We were then shown a coolmax mattress which is memory foam one side and gel on the other, the idea being that the gel is used for summer time and the memory foam for winter time. However, it still doesn't answer the question of whether or not we could use our electric blanket on either side. Evsonas couldn't answer our question either.
Has anyone any experience, or advice?
Thanks

Yes, we have one and the wife just said it's "Absolutely Wonderful" and I find its very good too.
I just read an electric overblanket is OK with memory foam but not to use an underblanket.

I have a box spring mattress, with a 10cm memory foam layer on top. I have used my electric heated back pad with it. Immediately on top of the mattress is a thick quilted cotton mattress protector, which is covered by a fitted cotton sheet. I put my electric back pad on top.
I have not had any problems using it this way on full heat, but it is timed to go off automatically after 1.5hrs.which suits me as I don't want it on all night.

Far too technical for me. Just keep you feet warm with one of these & you will end up as cosy as a bug
