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 Sleep Origins Mattress starts at £199.99 for the Comfort Mattress 15cm in a single and goes up to £699.99 for a super king in the ultimate comfort. You can find out more information about all the mattresses on the Sleep Origins website*.

i suffer from sleep apnea and the different support areas sound amazing
I like the idea of the different areas of support, what really caught my eye was the little pocket at the side were I could add my pouch of essential oil mix to help me sleep
We so need a new mattress and this one with different support areas sounds amazing
different areas of support – great for a bad back and painful hip
The mattress sounds exactly what we need, thanks to kids I don’t get nearly enough sleep so the little I get I’d love it to be of quality , husband on the other hand suffers from chronic back pain as well as a dodgy knee so it’s essential he sleeps comfortably.
Everything just sounds blissful ……… different levels of support would ease those aching joints. But I think my favourite thing would be the Fresh Cell technology. I get so hot and uncomfortable at night – and there’s nothing better than fresh sheets and a cool mattress.
Thank you for the great giveaway.
I love the sound of the double micro pocket springs help to support your hips and shoulders, it sounds like a very comfortable mattress for a wonderful night’s sleep.
I like the 5 comfort zones, and I’m sure the Fresh cell cool technology would be great for my husband who always complains about being too hot in bed.
As a menopausal woman, the cooling feature sounds fab.
I have Fibromyalgia and can get quite sore at night so think the different support areas sound good. The fresh cell technology also sounds like it would be helpful as I do overheat.
It sounds like a great mattress, your blog post is full of great info. I liked that it has 5 different support areas and that it comes in a lovely 25cm thickness for added comfort
Love this review, makes me really want one of these, I haven’t bought a new mattress in years
id love to win this. i love the antibacterial feature
My husband suffers from hip problems so I love the fact that it has several support areas to help support different parts of your body especially the hips – would be perfect!
I love the little pockets, they are so cute and what a brilliant idea!
I really like the idea of different support regions, it could be just what I am looking for to combat my partners lumbar pain
I like the idea I can put some lavender in the pocket at my side and the smell wouldn’t disturb my husband who dislikes the smell of lavender
Hi, great review. I suffer from a bad back and normally feel like its locked into place if I up for a while. I was interested in the lumber support section of the mattress but did wonder how they set it up for different height people. Were there any measures marks of head placement on the mattress for height? Cheers
the different support areas and cooling i have bad joints and get hot pains so im constantly finding cool spots
The mattress sounds perfect. I get really warm at night and the free cell technology sounds perfect. Combine that with the fact my old sprung mattress needs changing winning this would be spot on
Antibacterial feature sounds good
The different support areas sound fab has I suffer from a bad back this would be fab to try out
I like the sound of the hip support sections; I often wake up in the morning with pains in my hip. I also like the sound of the price, for a top of the range mattress in a king size is only £700; that’s very reasonable.
It sounds wonderful, I struggle to get a comfortable night’s sleep due to arthritis, I would love to try this.
As I suffer from a sore shoulder and hip, I love the idea of the double micro pocket springs helping to support them. A mattress is a big investment, and you can’t return it if it isn’t right for you. I also have the odd “power surge”so the fresh cell technology sounds like something that would make for a restful sleep!
