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.

The fresh cell technology as I get too hot at night
I would love to win the fantastic mattress as it would be ideal for my husband who has fybromyalgia.
Hi I like the scent pouch and the information about the pillow app- don’t think I’ll be choosing that particular app for sleep tracking!
The Fresh Cell Technology sounds great for helping to keep cool and the five support system would be ideal as I often wake up with my hips or shoulder aching.
I like the sound of the Fresh Cell Technology. I toss and turn all night feeling too hot, heat regulation would be great.
Yes this sounds perfect for me!
The five support system would hopefully easue my joint pains mainly in my hips x
Love the Fresh Cell concept and that you’ve mentioned it’s firm.
Looks a lot more comfy than my bed of nails.
I’m still on the hunt for my ideal mattress so the support zones sound ideal for my back problems.
I like the idea of the anti-bacterial coating (I am paranoid!!) but the lumbar support is something that my body really could use!
Sounds great as someone who suffers from back problems and has trouble sleeping.
The 5 different support areas really stand out for me, it sounds so comfortable. Also the antibacterial silver which to me is a great addition
This sounds perfect for my mum!
She has been sleeping in the dining room for 10 years, now that 2 of us have moved out she gets to have a proper bedroom.
She suffers with sciatica and bad back so all of the support with this mattress sounds great.
I also like the keep cool technology which I think would be ideal for her!
I like the sound of a mattress that has the technology to stay cool. I had a memory foam mattress that just seemed to get hotter and hotter through the night. Not an experience I would like to repeat.
It sounds like heaven to me.
The Fresh Cell Technology sounds like it would be wonderful t for helping me to keep cool during my night sweats, which have become a bit unbearable lately.
Quite an innovative company using technology in track your sleep and then see if their products can improve that. The extra support sounds great.. I always sleep with a pillow under my arms and neck to help support me.
i have been suffering mild back pain recently and sure our old mattress is not helping. I lov the sound of the lumbar support zone & think it could def help 🙂
The Fresh Cell technology in the Sleep Origins mattress was instantly appealing as I’m currently menopausal so having terrible sleep at the moment due to over heating and night sweats. I fall asleep quite easily, but wake and move around so much that it disturbs my husband. The 5 different support areas, sound like they might help support us both a little better so he wouldn’t get frustrated with my constant wriggling and last but by no means least, my little hand held fan would fit perfectly in that little pocket so no more nocturnal scrabbling around on the floor.
This mattress sounds ideal for me. I have a bad back and do not sleep well
fresh cell!
Oh definitely the fresh cell technology. Nothing worse than getting too hot at night!
This sounds a great mattress, especially the Fresh Cell tech as I do get very hot through the night and wake feeling sweaty and uncomfortable
I am not sure that I would go for one of these to be honest but the Fresh cell tech is worth having as I too struggle to sleep when I am hot.
I like the sound of The Fresh Cell technology, plus anything that helps my lower back and hips, do we all need rubbing out and starting again
I like the sound of the different support areas. I suffer from bad backs so the right support is very important to me.
