Zip and Link

Some people need more advanced and customisable options when it comes to buying a mattress. For a number of sleep-related problems, a zip and link mattress is often the answer. Maybe you and your partner have different mattress preferences. Maybe you need to turn a double bed into two singles or vice-versa. By choosing zip and link, you are guaranteed an unparalleled amount of versatility, ready for a range of situations.

What is a zip and link mattress?

A zip and link mattress is essentially made up of two mattresses that can be joined into one. With zips along one side, each mattress can be joined or separated from the other as and when you see fit. However, this doesn’t mean you should only consider a zip and link for its quick-change versatility. Often, zip and link mattresses are bought in place of a traditional mattress, as they allow for different levels of comfort within one bed and mattress solution.

What are the benefits of zip and link mattresses?

As mentioned, a key feature of a zip and link mattress is the ability for different levels of tension within the same bed. Maybe your partner loves a firm mattress, but you need a softer, more luxurious level of comfort. Maybe you need a mattress that incorporates spinal support on one side and a more regulated temperature on the other. Or, maybe it’s just that your bedroom has a narrow entry-route which a traditional larger mattress wouldn’t fit through. With zip and link, you can simply bring each half in, one after the other.

Another popular use for a zip and link mattresses is when guests are expected. If you’ve ever been away with a friend and the room you booked had only a double bed, you’ll know the struggle over deciding who’s on the couch. With a zip and link mattress, your guests will have ample space and not have to cosy up to someone they only met over dinner. Simply unzip and separate the mattress into the two pieces, ready for guests to have a perfect night’s sleep. What’s more, if you have young children or teenagers, the zip and link option can be great for when they have friends over.
