Choosing the right mattress is key to getting a restful night's sleep. From single to king and queen size mattresses, our range offers various sizes to fit your bed. If you need more support as you sleep, try our orthopaedic or medium-firm mattresses for balanced comfort.
The best mattress type for you will depend on your own personal preference, so it's always worth doing some research before you buy. The depth, depending on how thin or thick the mattress is, as well as the material it's made from, will help to determine the firmness you're looking for. Remember to read the product details for any new mattress as they will give you the specified firmness.

Mattresses Frequently Asked Questions
How often should you change your mattress?
You should get a new mattress every 7-10 years. However, you may need to replace it sooner if you notice any signs of wear or your sleep quality has declined.
Maintaining a mattress by rotating it every three to six months and using a mattress protector can help extend its lifespan.
What size is a double mattress?
A standard double mattress is 135cm wide and 190cm (4ft 6inches wide and 6ft 3 inches long), while a queen size mattress, also known as a small double, is 120cm wide and 190cm long (4ft wide and 6ft 3 inches long).
How should you dispose of a mattress?
There are a number of ways you can dispose your old mattress:
1. Recycle it - some recyling centres accept mattresses.
2. Donate it - if your mattress is in a reasonable condition, you can take it to a charity shop or a homeless shelter.
3. Bin it - some councils and waste management companies have collection services that you can use.
What is a hybrid mattress?
A hybrid mattress typically combines memory foam or latex with a pocket spring system. The foam layers offer contouring and pressure relief, while the springs provide enhanced support and durability whether you’re sleeping on your back, side, or front. It also provides a mix of softness and firmness. They're great for regulating temperature, making them ideal for sleepers who get too warm during the night.
What is an orthopedic mattress?
An orthopaedic mattress (or ortho mattress) is designed to provide extra support for the spine, joints and overall body alignment. These mattresses are typically firmer, making them ideal for people who suffer from joint, muscle or back pain. The firmness helps keep the spine in a neutral position, which can relieve pressure points and promote a better quality of sleep. Orthopaedic mattresses come in various materials, including memory foam, pocket springs and hybrid options.
How often should you rotate a mattress?
To keep your mattress in good condition and ensure even wear, it's recommended to rotate it every three to six months. Some mattresses, such as double-sided ones, may also need to be flipped in addition to rotating. Regularly rotating helps prevent sagging and prolongs lifespan.
