Frequently Asked Questions
What is a memory foam and pocket sprung hybrid king size mattress?
It is a king size hybrid mattress that combines a pocket sprung core with memory foam. The pocket springs support your body and move independently, while the memory foam adds a softer, contouring surface.
What are the dimensions of a UK king size mattress?
A UK king size mattress is about 150cm wide by 200cm long. This is wider than a double and longer than the 190cm length of smaller sizes, which suits couples and taller sleepers alike.
Will a king size hybrid fit my bed frame?
Measure the inside of your frame. A UK king usually needs a sleeping area of about 150cm by 200cm. Check the measurements at several points, and compare them with the dimensions on the product page before you order.
Who will like this king size pocket sprung hybrid?
It is a good fit for couples wanting more width, plus sleepers who like some foam comfort over springs. The pocket springs help reduce partner movement, which can be valuable if one of you sleeps lightly.
How do pocket springs and memory foam work together?
Pocket springs are individually wrapped coils that respond to the weight above them. A layer of memory foam on top moulds around your body for comfort. The pairing delivers support from underneath and cushioning where you rest.
How firm is a memory foam pocket sprung hybrid?
This build usually feels medium, with springs giving lift and foam softening the surface. The product page lists the firmness for this mattress, so use that as your guide, particularly if you and your partner differ in preference.
Does a pocket sprung hybrid sleep cooler than all memory foam?
Generally it does, since the springs let air move through the middle of the mattress. All-foam designs have fewer air channels and can hold more heat, so a hybrid is often a better match for warm sleepers.
How do I check the depth against my headboard?
Look at the mattress depth on the product page, then measure the height of your headboard above the base. You want the headboard to stand clearly above the mattress so pillows stay supported and the bed looks balanced.
What bedding do I need for a king size hybrid?
Buy king size bedding, which suits a 150cm wide bed. Hybrid mattresses tend to be deeper than basic ones, so choose a fitted sheet with a deep pocket to keep it smooth and secure.
Is a king size hybrid mattress worth it, and how do I look after it?
It is worth considering when you want support and comfort in one bed. It sits between plain memory foam and plain pocket sprung. Rotate it every few months and have help moving it, because it is heavy.
