Sleep Comfortably with Sleep Origins
Your mattress. It is one of the most important components which allows you to get a good night’s rest. If it is uncomfortable then not only are you going to sleep badly but you’re likely to wake up feeling uncomfortable and also in pain. Over the years, Ash and I have had a number of mattresses. Some of them have been wonderful and others have caused issues, for a number of reasons.
When Sleep Origins got in touch and asked if we would like to review a Sleep Origins mattress, we did debate whether it would be a good idea or not as the mattress we had previously had been very good. In the end, we decided to go for it. After all, we could always switch them back (something we have decided not to do).
Sleep Origins 25cm Ultimate Comfort Mattress
If you are unfamiliar with the Sleep Origins brand they are from High Street TV (a brand I am sure we have seen either on TV or on the high street). They sell three different mattresses: the comfort mattress which comes in at 15cm in depth, the super comfort at 18cm in depth and the ultimate comfort at 25cm in depth. The right one for you will depend on how much support you require.
Due to my pain levels, I thought we would be best going for the ultimate comfort edition as this offers a double layer of award winning micro pocket springs in the support areas of the mattress. Once I had spoken to the team at Sleep Origins my mattress arrived within a couple of days. However, they didn’t want me to jump in and change my mattress straight away. They actually wanted me to use the pillow app to track my sleep for seven days on my old mattress and then track it again for seven days after changing.
I’m going to be honest here and say I saw little difference via the pillow app when it came to my sleeping pattern. That said, I’m not 100% sure it actually tracked my sleeping that well. I don’t have an apple watch and so for it to work I had to place it under my pillow, where almost every night it tracked that I took 15 minutes to fall asleep, which I know wasn’t always the case. The quality of my sleep also seemed to stick at around 60%. A couple of very high nights can be put down to the fact my phone dropped under the bed and for the whole time it was down there it logged me as being in a deep sleep.
So when it comes to using the Pillow app to track the difference in the mattress I really found that hard to do.
One of the things I liked about this mattress at first impressions were the small details. The mattress includes five different support areas. The two support areas combines award winning micro pocket springs which help to support your hips and shoulders, with the firmer lumbar support zone in the centre which helps to support your spine. I will admit that the first time you lay down on this mattress it does feel different, as the support areas sink to your hips and shoulders, while the lumbar support area holds your spine area firm. However, it is a very comfortable support system to have in place when you sleep.
The super and ultimate size of mattress also come with a weave of antibacterial silver in the top layer, which is a nice addition to see.
As I’ve said before, I am often impressed by the little things and the fact that this includes little pockets to the handles which are perfect for placing in a scent packet to help you snooze really impressed me.
If, like me, you overheat at night, you may be thrilled to know the spring pockets also include Fresh Cell Technology, which helps to keep your mattress cool and comfortable overnight. Perfect!
Overall, I’m really impressed by this mattress. It most definitely offers something different to others on the market and while I am sure it won’t be for everyone as some people do like a flat firm base, for me and Ash it has worked out really well.

A great review, you seem very honest about it’s good and bad points. I like the idea of the different support areas, I have joint issues and often struggle to get a good nights sleep, this mattress sounds like it would help perhaps.
Really need a new mattress and this sounds great. Love the sound of the separate support zones.
Having considered Simba, Eve and others, this mattress looks like it will be the answer to my lower back problems.
Love the idea of different support areas – I rarely get a good night’s sleep as I have to change position so often to try and get comfortable due to the springs and lumps in my current mattress, add in the overheating on occasions and it’s a wonder I get any sleep at all – the Fresh Cell technology sounds marvellous. I imagine it must be like sleeping in a cloud of comfort.
I get very hot in bed so the fact that mattress keeps cool during the night really appeals to me
The support system would really help my back and hips- something my current mattress doesn’t do.
my mattress came with the bed so is cheap and it’s like sleeping on springs this would be a relief
This would be great for my neck and back as I have a slipped disc and sleep can be hard to reach xx
Sounds comfy
The lines across it look unusual
I love that the mattress includes 5 different support areas, the two support areas of double micro pocket springs help to support your hips and shoulders, as I really suffer with pain in my shoulders.
Love the sound of the different support areas and also the Fresh Cell Technology as I tend to overheat at night
This mattress looks amazing, we desperately need a new one as our springs poke us in the night while we sleep ?
I like the sound of the 5 support areas and lumbar support would be beneficial to my partner and myself as he has a degenerative disc in his lower back and I suffer from back pain and hip pain since having my body reckers … I mean my kids. The Fresh Cell Technology sounds good cos my partner is always hot and sweaty in the night – we have a fan on most of the year! Sounds like a good mattress to me
I was immediately taken, and appreciated, the addition of the silver layer for antimicrobial control. This is something that i would definitely look for in a mattress
I like the great support with 5 different support areas.
A mattress that is comfortable is great but one that keeps you cool is wonderful
I Love how you have explained the support that the mattress gives you and the reasoning behind why you need it. That is super important to me, after 3 C-Sections and uncountable epidurals my back has been left in bits, I never get a good nights sleep as I just don’t think that my bed gives the needed support – glad you have found one for your back. Bet the sleep is amazing
Would absolutely love the opportunity to try this mattress! The support features for the hips and shoulders would be very beneficial as I suffer from both, also at that time of life where a stay cool mattress may enhance my sleep! Sleep pockets are a fantastic idea just a lovely finishing touch!
I like the idea that it has support for the spine and hips
The idea of the mattress keeping me cool during the night really appeals as I have hit the stage in life where I am very hot during the night
love it, the idea of keeping cool at night would be fab as i wake up sweating all the time.
The antibacterial silver in the top layer and the pockets for scent bags! It really is the little things 🙂
This mattress sounds comfortable and supportive. Your review was great as I am considering a new mattress
I love the idea of the different support areas, especially being firmer around the lumbar area. I think I need more lumbar support but don’t necessarily want a really hard mattress in other areas. I like that it stays cool too, as many memory foam mattresses can be really hot.
