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).
Features Geltex inside to prevent overheating through the night. Sleep better, wake up brighter thanks to our unique gel infused comfort layer that comes with highly elastic Active Response technology, which creates an energised "bounce-back feeling" to assist easy movement though the night for an undisturbed sleep. This gives you more 'get-up and go' energy for a healthier, more active lifestyle.
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.
The high density Studio Flex foam core in your mattress matches the comfort rating you choose and provides profiled support tailored to your body shape. And, even though it's lighter than traditional springs, it's just as resilient. So, whatever you get up to during the day, you're guaranteed a great night's sleep. State-of-the-art memory foam. Spreading your body weight and providing support where you need it, reducing the pressure where you can't. With your Studio mattress you won't sink in and any aches and pains are soothed away.
