Introduction
There's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to mattresses. Every individual has unique needs and preferences that should be considered in their pursuit of tranquillity in dreamland. With different options available in the market, making a choice can be daunting. We've found a product that ticks many boxes, offering a perfect fusion of affordability, comfort, and ample support. Enter the Coolflex® Essentials Pocket Memory Hybrid Mattress.
How We Tested
We conducted an exhaustive in-depth analysis of this mattress in store, spending ample time studying it's design, feeling its comfort level, understanding its features, and gauging its overall performance. While a home trial wasn't performed, the testing was indeed comprehensive, enabling us to build a robust opinion about this mattress. Varying body weights and sleeping positions were considered, replicating different sleeping scenarios to evaluate its versatility and adaptability. The results offer a compelling verdict on the Coolflex® Essentials Pocket Memory Hybrid Mattress.
Design and Features
The Coolflex® Essentials Mattress marries two crucial elements of a good mattress: namely pocket springs and memory foam. With a generous count of 800 individual pocket springs, the mattress ensures a superior level of support that adapts smartly to the contours of your body. Complementing the springs perfectly is the layer of memory foam that pampers the body, relieving pressure points and offering much-needed comfort.
Coming vacuum-packed, the shipment process ensures product freshness while making installation convenient. The exterior of the mattress is decked by a luxuriously soft knitted cover adding another dimension of plushness to your sleep. Antibacterial and hypoallergenic, this mattress is also a suitable choice for those with allergies or sensitivities, as it actively wards off dust mites and other allergens.
Mattress Comfort
Listed as a medium feel mattress, the Coolflex® Essentials Pocket Memory Hybrid Mattress stands as an all-rounder. The individually pocketed springs in unison with the mouldable memory foam respond to the body’s weight efficiently, reducing pressure on heavier areas while maintaining a preferred sleeping posture.
While being sufficiently firm to offer support, the plushness of the outer material imparts a soothing feel, creating a balanced harmony of firmness and softness. This combination caters to almost all types of sleepers, be it side, back, or front, providing an easy-to-adjust-to embrace. The memory foam ensures an evenly distributed weight across the mattress, minimising strain from the body's angular parts.
Suitability
After thoroughly examining the mattress, we've concluded that the medium firmness combined with the adaptive features of this mattress makes it an ideal choice primarily for side sleepers. The thoughtful combination of memory foam and individual pocket springs cater incredibly well to the pressure points known to affect side sleepers, such as the hips and shoulders. This feature also bodes well for average-weighted individuals irrespective of their preferred sleeping position. Having said that, if you are predominantly a back sleeper, you might wish to explore options with a slightly firmer feel for even more support and contouring.
What Customers Thought
- One customer gave a nod to the supportive nature of this mattress, stating that it had been beneficial in alleviating their back pain.
- A review from a side sleeper highlighted the adaptive comfort of the mattress, being particularly appreciative of the pressure relief on their hips and shoulders.
- What stood out in another review was the breathability and temperature regulation of the mattress, as it successfully prevented night sweats in a customer with such an issue.
- Another reviewer expressed gratitude for the easy installation process, given the vacuum packed and rolled packaging of the mattress.
The Verdict
From our acute in-store examination, juxtaposed with sincere customer reviews, we deem the Coolflex® Essentials Pocket Memory Hybrid Mattress as a worthy contender among mid-range mattresses. It has a clever design that combines memory foam with pocket springs, all encased in a soft-to-the-touch knitted outer layer. This clever combination of comfort and support makes it an excellent choice for most types of sleepers, particularly favouring side sleepers and those of average weight.
However, despite its many positives, the mattress may not be an ultimate solution for everyone's sleep needs. Although it's adequately supportive and plush, some back sleepers or heavier individuals may find the lure of a more solid support more appealing in other, slightly firmer options.
This mattress represents a down-to-earth solution for individuals seeking an affordable, pressure-relieving and supportive sleep. While it may lack some extravagant features of higher-end mattresses, it provides a convincing value proposition for those on a budget.
