Comfort
Cooling, supportive simbatex® layer: Open cell, graphite-infused Simbatex® foam keeps you cooler, with 30x the airflow of standard memory foam.
Should your Brook + Wilde mattress feel too soft or too firm for your liking, you can swap it with one of their other mattresses, free of charge, or select a refund in full. The sumptuous top layer of breathable and cooling memory foam moulds to your body and eliminates motion transfer from fidgety sleeping partners.

Brook + Wilde uses a unique design to encourage back support and spinal alignment. Each mattress is ergonomically engineered to provide improved support to the shoulder area, meaning you'll wake up free of aches and pains.The mini springs move with you as you toss and turn in your sleep and reduce pressure points. The next layer of higher density support foam aids spinal alignment and looks after your shoulders. The large pocket springs give bounce and push back, leaving you with extra spring in your step.
