Frequently Asked Questions
What does back support mean in this memory foam mattress title?
It describes a medium firm feel that supports the body evenly, so you do not sink in too far. It is a comfort description only. Back sleepers often like medium firm, while side sleepers may prefer something softer, so choose by how you usually sleep.
What size bed frame does this medium firm foam mattress fit?
It is a 4ft6 UK double, normally 135 x 190cm. Measure the interior of your frame before ordering to be sure. A properly fitting mattress sits snugly without large gaps at the sides.
Is a medium firm memory foam mattress good for back sleepers?
Many back sleepers like medium firm because it feels supportive while the foam contours gently. It is a preference rather than a rule. Side sleepers may find it a bit firm, and stomach sleepers might choose a firmer feel.
How is an all-memory-foam double different from a hybrid?
An all-foam mattress has no spring layer, so it tends to feel quieter, slower and more enveloping. Hybrids add springs, which feel bouncier and let more air move. Choose by how you like the surface to respond.
Does memory foam sleep hot in summer?
Memory foam can retain body heat because it contours closely. Many people manage this with lighter bedding, a ventilated base and a cool room. If you often overheat, a sprung mattress may suit you better.
What double bedding do I need for this foam mattress?
Buy double fitted sheets for 135 x 190cm. Check the depth listed on the product page and pick a sheet pocket that covers it with a little to spare, so the corners stay in place.
Will this foam mattress arrive in a box and how long will it take?
Packaging format and delivery timings are listed on the product page and at checkout. Foam mattresses are often supplied boxed, which can help on stairs. Unpack it in the bedroom and let it settle.
How do I look after a memory foam double mattress?
Rotate it head to foot every few months so the foam wears evenly. Keep it on a solid or slatted base with good airflow. Clean spills with a lightly damp cloth and let the mattress dry completely.
How do I choose a firmness level for a foam mattress?
Think about your usual sleeping position and body weight. Soft suits many side sleepers, medium firm suits a wide range of people, and firm suits those who prefer to sleep on top of the surface.
Which mattress is best if I want supportive memory foam?
There is no best mattress for everyone, but a medium firm memory foam mattress is a popular supportive option. Compare firmness, depth and size when you buy a mattress online, and pick what feels right for the way you sleep.
