Comfort
Being too hot at night is an absolute no-no for great sleep. That’s why we designed our fantastic Simbatex foam; it’s an ‘open cell’ foam, which allows thirty times the airflow of memory foam (that’s almost breezy for a bed).
Made using wonderfully comfortable foams, this mattress is sure to be loved by young and old alike. So, no matter whether you like to sleep on your back, your front or your side, you’ll always sleep sweet and soundly.
Support
You’ll find up to 1,500 of these ingenious springs nestling in our essential mattresses; each individual Aerocoil® spring flexes gently in response to you and your partner’s movements, offering personalised support to each of you without disturbing the other.
Perfect for all body types, this mattress features unique cut-outs that support your shoulder and hips. Pressure is distributed across the mattress to keep your spine aligned and allowing you to wake up refreshed.
