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*.

The five areas of support sounds like a really good idea
As someone who suffers with back issues, I like that it has good back support. The neck and shoulder support is good too, as I occasionally wake up with pain there, presumably due to positioning.
I like the the fact that it has lumbar support for the spine but it is still comfortable.
The support system idea is amazing and I think ultimate comfort edition sounds really interesting for the people like me who suffers from back pain. Moreover the cooling technology appeals me as well. I am looking for a new mattress and your review has lots of great points to make me buy this. Thank you for your help.
I have several slipped discs, so I have struggled to sleep for years. This mattress seems like it may help!
I really like the idea of the support areas, my current mattress gives me no support at all 🙁
I love the idea of the cool and comfortable night. It’s always so lovely to have a comfortable support of my back
This sounds like a great mattress for the price (I’ve looked at some that I’ve almost fainted when I saw the tag!). The pockets are genius. I can imagine popping a little lavender bag in there. And the fresh cell technology. I absolutely hate being too hot when trying to sleep so that would be a real bonus for me.
If you prefer it to your original mattress, that’s certainly positive. I also liked the lack of the words “memory foam”, although maybe I need to do more research on their website regarding that.. Would always be happy to try a new mattress though, as mine is too firm for my body weight.
the Fresh Cell Technology – I’m hot stuff at night
The Fresh Cell Technology appeals to me as I am at that time in my life when I get really hot in bed. I’d love this if it keeps you cool then maybe I might sleep more comfortably.
The 5 support system sounds brill as does the Fresh Cell Technology,
I suffer from back problems so the idea of the level of support sounds promising, also overheating can be an issue as I like to be warm, yet other half is forever kicking off the covers! so the Fresh Cell Technology would be impressive
The 5 different support areas sounds great, especially the lumbar support zone – as I do suffer from back problems.
Could do with a good quality mattress like this
The levels of support sound ideal as my wife struggles to sleep and suffers from a bad shoulder. Our mattress is around 10 years old and whilst it seems fine I think we could do with a new one
I love the little pocket, where you could slip in some lavender or whatever you wanted to aid sleep 🙂
I love the idea of the Fresh Cell Technology, changes in temperature are the biggest reasons I wake up!
My wife and I are in desperate need for a new mattress. Fed up of hearing who complain about her back. This looks supportive and comfy.
I love the little pockets, that’s such a nice touch!
I love the sound of the Fresh Cell Technology – I often overheat in the night, but like to stay snug under my thick duvet, so this sounds perfect for me!
I hadn’t even heard of Fresh Cell Technology before I read this review. I now want this mattress!
Fresh cell technology really appeals to me because I always seem to be too hot in bed and nothing ruins a comfortable night sleep than waking up in a sweat every few hours!
Your review makes me very interested in this mattress 🙂 I am looking for extra hip support and I really love the fact 5 different support areas – hips, shoulders, and spine.
This mattress really appeals to me, especially the Fresh Cell Technology as i tend to get really hot when i’m sleeping.
