Our history is woven into the fabric of British industry, and our future is dedicated to your personal comfort.
What you should consider before purchasing a mattress.
You will be spending a third of your life on your bed mainly the mattress. Take your time and find the best fit, one which will aid and help you rejuvenate with a comfortable sleep and feel fresh every day.
When buying a mattress, consider the UK's standard sizes, what type of mattress, firmness, style, and your specific needs for a good sleep.
Mattress Size
There are many mattress sizes depending on where you purchase them from. We use UK standard sizes.
Mattress Types Explained Simply
Pocket Sprung Mattresses
- Individual springs respond to your body
- Better pressure relief
- Reduced movement transfer
Ideal for: Couples and everyday use.
Memory Foam Mattresses
- Contours to your body
- Pressure-relieving
- Can feel warmer for some sleepers as close cell structure recycles the heart and does not dissipate. Considered not breathable.
Hybrid Mattresses
- Combination of springs and foam
- Balanced comfort and support
- Popular across UK retailers
Mattress Settlement (Important to Know)
All quality mattresses naturally settle over time. This is normal and expected.
Settlement happens as:
- The mattress contours to your body
- Comfort layers relax with use
This does not mean the mattress is faulty. It means it is doing its job.
Choosing the Right Firmness
Firmness is personal there is no “best” option.
- Soft to Medium: Side sleepers
- Medium: Most sleepers
- Medium to Firm: Back sleepers- Also known as Ortho
- Firm: Heavier sleepers or specific support needs. Also Known as Ortho.
A well-made base will help any firmness level perform better.
