Mattresses

What mattress type is best for me?

Every mattress is designed to solve a different sleep problem. Explore our range to find the one that suits you best:

Memory foam mattresses

Memory foam mattresses offer responsive support by conforming to your body’s shape, relieving pressure points and promoting healthy spinal alignment. They also minimise motion transfer, which is ideal if you share your bed with a loved one.

Pocket spring mattresses

Pocket spring mattresses use individual springs that move independently to adapt to your body’s shape. This design provides targeted support and relieves pressure on your joints. The isolated springs also minimise motion transfer, preventing your partner’s movements from disturbing your sleep.

Combination mattresses

Combination mattresses have springs at the base paired with memory foam, latex, or gel layers on top to enhance comfort and pressure relief. The spring base offers stability and airflow, perfect if you’re a hot sleeper but still want the support of memory foam or latex. Meanwhile, the top layers contour to your body, providing targeted pressure relief.

Traditional spring mattresses

Traditional spring mattresses, also known as open coil mattresses, have a series of connected springs that offer excellent support across the entire sleeping surface. They are an affordable option and are super durable.

This makes them ideal for couples with different firmness or mattress preferences, as each person can choose the mattress that best suits their sleeping style. They’re also easy to transport and perfect for guest rooms.

What mattress size should I get?

From small singles to 6-foot- wide super kings, we have mattresses for every bed. To make the ideal choice, you need to:

• Get accurate measurements of your room.
• Consider who is using the mattress: do you need space for two or want to spread out?
• Do you already have a bed frame? This will need to match your new mattress.
• If you're buying a new bed frame as well, don't forget to check those dimensions against your room measurements too!

If you’re at all unsure of the right size, visit our mattress size guide.

How do I choose the right mattress firmness?

Comfort grades, also known as softness or firmness, help determine how a mattress will support your sleeping position. Knowing which is best for what can make the choice easier.

• Soft firmness offers the least resistance, providing a gentle support base that contours your natural body shape. Perfect for side sleepers.
• Medium firmness provides a gentle support system, conforming to the shape of your body. Great if you sleep on your side or front.
• Firm mattresses offer essential support to maintain natural spinal alignment. Ideal for back or front sleepers.
• Very firm mattresses provide a very firm base for optimum support, especially for back sleepers.
• Split tension allows you to choose two different comfort grades, making it perfect for couples with different sleeping positions or weights.
