Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Deep Comfort memory foam mattress made for a 4ft6 double bed?
Yes, it comes in the standard 4ft6 double size of 135 x 190cm. Before buying, measure your bed base and check that a deeper mattress will not sit above the headboard or side rails in a way that looks or feels awkward.
What kind of sleeper will enjoy a deep comfort foam mattress?
People who like a plush, cushioned bed often enjoy a deeper memory foam mattress. It suits adults sharing a double, or anyone who wants a comfortable bed that feels generous. If you prefer a very firm bed, consider another style.
Why do people choose memory foam for comfort?
Memory foam moulds slowly to your body, which spreads your weight and gives a hugging feel. It is also quiet and good at absorbing movement. Whether it is the right mattress is down to personal preference and how you like to sleep.
Will the Deep Comfort double feel soft or firm?
The name points to a comfort-led, cushioned feel, so expect a softer, moulding surface rather than a hard one. Firmness is subjective, though. If you want firm support, our medium firm and orthopaedic memory foam mattresses are better matches.
Does a deep foam mattress get hot in summer?
A thicker foam mattress can hold more body heat than a thin one or a sprung design. This model is not described as cooling. Lightweight bedding, a fan and an open window on warm nights can all help you stay comfortable.
How deep is the Deep Comfort mattress exactly?
The exact depth is listed in the product details, so use that figure when planning your bed height and choosing fitted sheets. Deeper mattresses need sheets with extra pocket depth so the corners stay tight.
Can I use standard double bedding on this mattress?
Yes, a standard double duvet cover and double fitted sheet are the right size for 135 x 190cm. Because this is a deeper mattress, look for deep-fit sheets so they stay in place around the corners.
What should I do when my double foam mattress is delivered?
Take it to the bedroom first, then cut the wrapping and let the foam unroll. Allow at least 24 hours to reach full size before judging the feel. A little new-foam smell is normal and fades with fresh air.
How can I make a deep foam mattress last longer?
Turn it head to foot every few months, keep it on a supportive, ventilated base and clean marks gently with a damp cloth. Avoid sitting only on the edge for long periods, which can wear one area faster.
Is a memory foam mattress UK buyers choose for comfort better than pocket sprung?
Neither is better for everyone. Memory foam is cushioned and quiet, while pocket sprung mattresses are bouncier and sleep more airily. Think about whether you prefer to sink in or sit on top, and how warm you get overnight.
