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.

The Nectar Premier Hybrid is a medium-firm mattress. That's right in the middle of the firmness scale (a 6 to 6.5), where you get the most comfort and support.

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).
Our top of the range, Premier Hybrid mattress combines all the engineering and technology in our range to deliver the optimum sleep experience.
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.
With deep springs, micro springs and memory foam our hybrid premier delivers the comfort, heat wicking, zonal support so that all body shapes will experience the nights sleep their brain and body needs.
