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 REM-Fit Eco mattress utilizes a combination of 2000 mini pocket springs and 1000 tall premium pocket springs, each 14.5cm high, as shorter springs under 8cm were found to offer insufficient support and movement isolation. This combination provides undisturbed sleep and robust 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).
Incorporating Japanese fibre technology to provide a superior level of comfort and support. The unique blend of polyester fibres allows moisture and air to flow freely, offering excellent temperature regulation, unlike traditional foams which can retain heat and moisture. 100% recyclable.
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.
Through rigorous testing, our sleep researchers found that spring systems below 8cm in height provided inadequate support and failed to isolate partner movement. For undisturbed sleep & sumptuous support the REM-Fit Eco combines 2000 mini pocket springs with 1000 tall premium pocket springs, 14.5cm high.
