Somnior 3000 Optimum Optimum 3000 Pocket Sprung Mattress for Independent Supported Sleep, Microfibre, White, Double

Product Information

Contrary to popular belief, our tests have shown that a mattress doesn’t have to be firm to be good for you. Firmness comes down to personal preference, as long as the mattress does a good job of supporting your body. So how do you choose the right one for you?

As humans, our uniqueness shines through in our tastes, preferences, and opinions. It’s no surprise that our sleep needs are just as distinctive. While some may find solace in a simple, no-frills mattress, others seek the epitome of bedtime perfection, from plush mattresses to silky satin sheets. This is where Happy Beds enters the picture. After simulating several years of use by rolling a heavy barrel over the mattress thousands of times, we then repeat the body-support tests to see whether the mattress becomes less supportive over time. Size: Make sure to choose a mattress that fits your bed frame and provides enough space for you to sleep comfortably. But what makes the OTTY Original Hybrid stand out from the rest of the bed-in-a-box market? I put it to the test, sleeping on it for a few weeks to assess convenience of delivery, support, and any handy features, and you can read the full results of my test here. Mattresses often get overlooked when we revamp our homes. While we eagerly decorate every corner, from the bedroom to the garden, we tend to ignore the foundation of our sleep – the mattress. Many of us hold onto the same mattress from childhood, even as our bodies evolve, leading to common 21st-century complaints like daily body pains. Although diet plays a role, our sleep quality is equally significant.

Should I consider a hybrid mattress instead?

The mattress size you choose depends on the size of your bed. To avoid any gaps or overhang between your mattress and the frame, you should always opt for the exact same size mattress as your bed. For example, a small single bed will require a small single mattress. If you’re also upgrading your bed and are wondering what size to go for, we recommend choosing the largest bed size for your available space and budget. This will ensure you have plenty of space to get a good night’s sleep. Comfort: Comfort is quite subjective, but if you choose a mattress that feels comfortable to you then you can’t really go wrong. Look for a mattress with a suitable firmness level and a comfortable top layer such as a pillow top or memory foam layer.

Zip & link mattresses are two separate mattresses that can have completely different spring tensions. They zip together as a one-piece mattress. One of the most important things to consider is the level of support that the mattress provides. This largely depends on the number of springs and the gauge (type) of wire used in the springs. So, it’s crucial to choose a mattress with enough springs to provide the right level of support for your body weight and sleeping position. When trying out a mattress in-store, wear comfortable clothing and remove your outdoor gear. Lie on a mattress for at least 10 minutes, in positions you normally sleep in and trying turning over.

What position do you sleep in?

Alternatively, they can be delivered to your home and easily taken to the room you need without having to try to drag a large mattress up your stairs or around tight corners. Once you move away from cheaper mass-produced springs, you then have the option of tailored spring gauges. This means that (depending on your weight) you can choose a soft, medium or firm spring. As a result, you have the potential for split tension mattresses and zip and links. So if you and your partner are different weights, then you can have different tensions to suit each of you. View our Zip & Link Mattresses The size of the mattress is also a key consideration. You should choose a mattress that fits your bed frame and provides enough space for you to sleep comfortably. A mattress that’s too small can lead to discomfort and poor sleep quality.

In mattress manufacturing, attention to detail and material quality often make all the difference. Unfortunately, many manufacturers overlook this crucial aspect, causing their mattresses to lag in comfort and overall appeal. Factors such as brand, size and the types of material used can all have a significant impact on cost. But our mattress tests have found that you don’t need to spend a fortune to get a mattress that will support your spine and last for years.
