Frequently Asked Questions
Is this memory foam and pocket sprung hybrid a standard 4ft6 double?
Yes, it is a UK double mattress, which is 4ft6 or 135 x 190cm. It fits a standard double bed frame or divan base with those internal dimensions. Check the depth on the product page and measure your frame before ordering so the fit is right.
What are the benefits of a memory foam and pocket sprung double mattress?
Pocket springs give independent support and airflow, while memory foam adds a cushioned layer that moulds to your shape. Together they offer a comfortable balance for many sleepers. It is a popular choice if you cannot decide between foam and spring.
Will I feel my partner move on a pocket sprung hybrid double?
Individually wrapped pocket springs move independently, and the foam layer absorbs some movement, so disturbance is generally reduced compared with a traditional open coil mattress. You may still feel some movement, as no mattress removes it completely.
How firm is this hybrid double bed mattress?
The firmness is described on the product page, so please check it before you buy. Hybrids usually feel balanced, with a little give on the surface and a supportive base. If you want something firmer or softer, compare options in our Mattresses collection.
How do I check the depth will suit my bed frame and headboard?
Find the mattress depth on the product page, then measure the height of your frame sides and headboard. You want the mattress to sit comfortably above the sides without looking too tall or covering the headboard. A tape measure and a few minutes avoids returns.
Is a memory foam hybrid double mattress good for hot sleepers?
The pocket springs let air move through the mattress, which helps compared with solid foam. Memory foam can still hold some warmth, so very hot sleepers should pair it with breathable bedding and a ventilated bedroom to stay comfortable through the night.
What bed linen is right for a double mattress of this type?
Use standard UK double bedding with a double fitted sheet. Check the mattress depth on the product page and choose a fitted sheet with a pocket a few centimetres deeper than the mattress, so the sheet stays tight on the corners.
What is the unboxing process for a new double mattress?
Delivery details are shown at checkout. Carry the mattress to the bedroom first, then remove the packaging and lay it flat. Give it several hours to settle and expand fully, and open a window if you notice a mild new-foam smell.
How often should a hybrid double mattress be rotated?
Rotate it head to foot every few weeks in the first months, then roughly every three months, unless the care label advises otherwise. Rotating helps spread wear evenly. Vacuum gently and spot clean with a barely damp cloth, letting it dry fully.
Should I buy a hybrid double mattress or a cheaper pure foam one?
Pure foam is often more budget friendly and quiet, while a hybrid adds spring support and airflow for a livelier feel. Think about how you like to sleep and your budget. You can compare both types in the Double & Small Double Mattresses collection.
