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 5 support system sounds great and the pocket will definitely come in useful!
The pocket I agree on side is a key feature I like. I could store essentials in there or sleep aids such as herbal teas should I wake up in the night. The personalised service is good that they reccomend you yo try old matress for a week first and compare. The technology in the matress sounds good and it sounds well made. I’d love to own one to support my back.
Apart from the fact a brand new matress would be amazing anyway for us, I particularly love the pocket to put a scent in to aid relaxation. Again we dont have apple watches etc either but I like the idea of the app and sleep tracker. My husband gets too hot so the air fresh tech would be amazing. Its innovative and looks fantastic. Everything crossed!
I like the technology it includes in the mattress for staying fresh and cool and that is has the important pressure point Support. The pocket like you also claim really appeals to me. I could store medication in there and also essential oil bottles. It sounds an amazing mattress, and the fact they like you to track your old mattress first shows they are a good company that cares.
I like the sound of having antibacterial silver elements weaved into the mattress – for my hubby with chronic wounds this might bring improvement
The Spring pockets and Fresh Cell Technology is fabulous!! Would like to try & get a good night rest!!
I’d absolutely love this mattress, my fave bit was the pic of your little dog <3 such a cutie xx
I love the idea of different levels of support focusing on different areas – spinal support sounds heavenly. We’re on our 5th mattress in 3 years and this must be the most uncomfortable yet!
Sounds like a great mattress. I love the fact it has little pockets where you could put in scent packets. Great idea!
The Fresh Cell Technology sounds interesting and the pockets are a novel idea.
I like how you explained about the app and the pillow such a great idea to travk sleep before buying a new natress
Love the idea of the little pocket for scents – what a good idea!
the five support system sounds fab, my partner gets a bad back so would be great for him
I found your blog really interesting especially about the different sleeping parts for your body! Would love an update in a years time!
