Firmness Info

The Simba Hybrid Essential is a medium-firm mattress, however, 95% of Simba sleepers love their mattress. If it doesn't work for you, Simba mattresses that are returned are either refurbished or recycled; they never go near a landfill site.

From our years of experience selling over 75,000 mattresses all over the world, we learned that both the eve and eve hybrid provides the ultimate in support and comfort for the majority of people - without being too firm, or too soft. We believe we have engineered the ultimate in sleeping perfection.

The comfort layer also has an open-cell structure to create a cool circulation of air as you sleep.The evecomfort® layer: Better bounce technology, Foam structure provides long-lasting comfort, 30 times more breathable than conventional memory foam, Dissipates body heat for a cooler night's sleep

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.
Our full-size, 9cm springs are the ideal height for the optimum level of support and comfort for all sleepers. The springs are zoned to relieve pressure in your hips and shoulders, while each individual coil responds to your movement and sleeping position.Whether you're a back, stomach or a curl-up-in-a-ball-on-your-side sleeper, the hybrid has you covered. The pocket springs:, 713 individually fabric-wrapped pocket springs respond to movement, Foam-encased for extra support and stability, Zoned springs relieve pressure in your hips and shoulders.
