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 review sounds really good actually. The one thing that concerns me is the raised pattern on the top of the mattress! I have sensory issues and can’t cope with that kind of thing!
Fresh Cell Technology
I really like the idea of the support areas and how that would work
The mattress is completely silent. Which is ideal, as noisy mattresses are annoying.
I am always astounded as to how they can fit mattresses in such small boxes!
It sounds like it would be really comfortable to sleep on, and would help ease back pain.
I’m intrigued by the variable levels of support you mention for shoulders and lumbar support. I have a back condition and am often in some degree of pain or discomfort, plus we inherited our mattress! So I’d love to win this giveaway, as this mattress sounds like a good one. Thanks for the chance.
The levels of support sounds great, I like a firm mattress to look after my back! It is a gamble buying a new one because you can never tell until you’ve slept on it a while. The last one I bought I’m really not happy with so would love to replace it!
I like the idea of the antibac top layer, but the best thing is the lumbar support. I like good firm back support in bed.
The different support areas for your body sound fantastic….
love the sound of the fresh cell technology
I also overheat at night and I know how important getting the right temperature is for sleep, so the cell technology sounds amazing for not getting too hot. A comfortable matress is probably one of the most important investments you can make for a good nights sleep.
I would love to try this mattress on my daughters bed. She is autistic and finds getting comfortable at night a problem.
this sounds like a very comfortable mattress and would be ideal for me as mine is so old.
The part of your review that really stuck out for me was the idea of the fresh cell technology, especially with the warmer summer nights coming up. This would be just perfect for keeping us cool!
It sounds like a great mattress, I like the fresh cell technology as we tend to overheat in our current mattress
i hate the night sweats i have and to have a mattress that stays cool and fresh sounds very smart
The 5 different support areas and the fact that you said this mattress it does feel different. I have had futons and a normal mattress and have yet to find one that I feel really does the job
This mattress sounds really great. I love the fact that it comes in three different thicknesses and that you can choose your mattress to suit your requirements.
The handle pockets are a quirky and original idea and one that I have never come across before but make complete sense.
I like the design of the mattress and all the features mentioned. I can see how the pillow app could be helpful if it was definitely reliable.
I like the sound of the fresh cell technology which keeps the mattress cool overnight. I often feel too hot at night so I would be interested to see if this works
I really like the idea of the support areas and how that would work, as i am a back pain sufferer, but like you i think i would get quite confused regards using the apps !
MY husband is always too hot when he sleeps so the fresh cell technology is I’ll be great for him. I have problems with my hips so the different support areas will hopefully be really supportive for me and help reduce the discomfort from my hips.
I get back pain frequently and so the fact the mattress is supportive of my spine is greatly appealing. It sounds like the solution for a perfect nights sleep
I love the sound of the comfort areas I have arthritic knees and often toss and turn during the night to get comfortable, I would like to experience.The Fresh Cell Technology is something I would like in a mattress as being menopausal often have to sleep with no covers on, or have to sleep on the sofa as it is cooler. The price sounds realistic for the quality and features it offers, and I love that you can return it if you are not satisfied
Fresh Cell Technology, which helps to keep your mattress cool and comfortable overnight – this sounds amazing. My body often changes temperature during the night. I layer up with covers then end up taking them all off. This mattress would hopefully help with this heat management.
