Sleepeezee mattresses - reviews, awards, discounts and buying guide

Sleepeezee are a long established name in the UK mattress market, and they've got a lot going for them. They're a brand to consider if you want a traditionally made quality mattress which won't make your eyes water when you have to pay for it. Top models cost about £1400 for a double mattress, but there are plenty of good quality models around the £500 mark and there are even budget Sleepeezee mattresses for about £200.

What type of mattresses do sleepeezee make?

Sleepeezee logo
For the uninitiated, there are two main types of mattress - sprung mattresses and foam mattresses (there are others, but let's not make this too unbearably complicated). Sleepeezee make sprung mattresses which is what most of us are familiar with. 

The vast majority of Sleepeezee mattresses use 'pocket springs', which is the superior option to 'open coil' springs. If you can afford it, I would pick one of their pocket spring options, as you get much better support. Your grandma probably had an open coil mattress in her spare bedroom. Several Sleepeezee mattresses also have built in 'toppers' or 'pillow tops' made from materials such as memory foam, so they're actually a sort of hybrid mattress which is partly springs and partly foam.

The advantage of these combination mattresses is that you get the traditional feel of a sprung mattress with an extra layer of comfort and support. The downside is that you usually can't turn the mattress over. Some guides reckon that mattresses don't sag as much if you keep turning them over, although you can rotate any mattress to help avoid getting an indentation.

You'll notice that there's a big variation in spring counts amongst the different Sleepeezee pocket spring mattresses. Most of them are between 1000 and 2000 springs, although some go as high as 4000 springs. Once you get beyond 2000 springs, the mattress is actually offering you more than one layer of springs as there is a limit to how many springs you can squeeze on to one layer. 

According to most guides I've read, somewhere between 1000 and 2000 springs is perfectly adequate for most people. You'll feel the benefit of 2000 if you are on the heavier side, whereas a 7 stone jockey probably wouldn't gain much from a high spring count. 

Which awards have Sleepeezee mattresses won?

Sleepeezee are one of the only mattress companies with a Royal Warrant, meaning that you can sleep in the same bed as royalty - or at least someone in the Royal Household (other brands with a Royal Warrant include Glencraft and Hypnos). Of course, this is no guarantee that they make good mattresses but it's certainly a good start and isn't handed out without some careful consideration.

Several individual Sleepeezee mattresses have also won awards from expert testers in recent years, including: 
  • The Sleepeezee Hybrid 2000 Pocket Gel Mattress ​(£549 for a double mattress at the time of writing) is an award winning mattress which has a firm feel. It uses a combination of springs and foam, hence the 'hybrid' name. It's got one layer of 1000 normal sized pocket springs which does most of the heavy lifting (no offence) as well as another layer of 1000 mini springs for extra comfort.

    It uses several synthetic materials for the other layers rather than natural materials. That's a good thing if you tend to suffer from allergies, as foam and polyester doesn't tend to gather dust as much. 


    It's a good depth at 24cm and it comes with a 60 night trial period if you buy it from Mattress Online (as do other Sleepeezee mattresses) so you can swap it if you don't like it (read the Ts and Cs here).

    At the time of writing, customers on Mattress Online give it 9.5/10.

  • The Sleepeezee Beautyrest Boutique Lexington 1800 Mattress (£649) is another award winner which uses a combination of springs and foam. There are notable differences though from the Hybrid 2000 mentioned above.

    Firstly, this one is medium/firm rather than firm. Generally speaking, heavier people need firmer mattresses than lighter people. Also, people who sleep on their backs tend to need firmer mattresses than people who sleep on their sides.

    Secondly, this one has a layer of memory foam rather than other types of foam. Memory foam was originally developed to help keep astronauts comfy but it's now commonly used in mattresses. It has more of a hugging and sinking feeling than standard foam but people like the comfort it offers. Some people find that memory foam makes them feel a bit warm in bed.


    It has a very similar specifications to the Sleepeezee Jessica 1800 which is another award winner.

  • The Sleepeezee Mayfair (£859) is a medium firmness mattress at the top end of the Sleepeezee range. It was a runner up in the 'Bed of the Year' category at the 2019 Bed Industry Awards (a glittering evening hosted by Gyles Brandreth in case you were wondering). 

    It is what's known as a 'pillowtop' mattress which means it has a comfy topper sewn onto the mattress. As a result, you can't turn it over so you just rotate it round to avoid getting dips and lumps over time. 

    It uses a combination of pocket springs for support and expensive natural materials like British wool and cashmere for added comfort. It's a good option if you prefer a mattress which is mostly made from natural materials rather than synthetic (i.e. plastic-based) foams. 

    ​It's got three layers of springs including some full sized pocket springs and some smaller ones for comfort. 

    The Sleepeezee Mayfair comes with a 10 year guarantee, which is very good for a pocket sprung mattress.

What reviews do customers give Sleepeezee mattresses?

For me, the most impressive thing about Sleepeezee is the customer reviews on TrustPilot. We did a comparison on our 'beginner's guide' page and found that Sleepeezee were scoring 4.2/5 overall from customers (at the time of writing). Some mattress brands such as Simba Sleep and Ergoflex scored slightly higher but they make hybrid or memory foam mattresses and have a much smaller range so it isn't a fair comparison.

There are also Google reviews when you search for Sleepeezee, but these are a confusing mix of people commenting on parking at the factory along with people reviewing a specific bed. Dreams only sell a handful of Sleepeezee mattresses, but they were all scoring highly with customers when I checked. Generally, Dreams sell 'exclusive' versions of mattresses from major brands so you won't find the same models elsewhere.

Mattress Online has probably got the most reviews for individual Sleepeezee mattresses.

What guarantee does sleepeezee offer?

Most Sleepeezee mattresses I looked at had a five year guarantee. That's somewhere in the middle in the mattress market. Most cheaper brands only offer you a year or two, whilst some posh brands such as Vispring offer up to 30 years and Nectar Sleep or DreamCloud both offer a 'forever guarantee'. ​A few of the most expensive Sleepeezee mattresses come with a 10 year guarantee (e.g. the Sleepeezee Mayfair)
​
Another factor which makes Sleepeezee stand out is that they offer a 60 night sleep trial on most mattresses if you buy them from Mattress Online. This sort of thing is generally offered by 'bed in a box' mattress companies which just make one or two models, but it's a much less common offer from big mattress brands which have a wide range. It's worth noting that there are terms and conditions and that you can swap the mattress for a different Sleepeezee model rather than just getting a refund, but it's still an appealing option particularly if you are buying online.

Where can I buy Sleepeezee mattresses?

Sleepeezee mattresses are pretty widely available and you'll find them in lots of showrooms. There's a useful 'find a retailer' map on the Sleepeezee website. Online retailers with a big range include Mattress Online (more than 40 models) and Mattressnextday (nearly 50 different Sleepeezee models when I checked).

It's worth trying out a mattress in person if you can, although the 60 night Sleepeezee sleep trial mentioned above will give you a much better chance to try it out than you'll get after lying down for 30 seconds in a showroom and saying 'hmm, that one seems OK'. The main advantage of trying out a mattress in a shop is that you can try out several in one go.

There's no industry wide agreement of what a company means when they say that a mattress is 'soft', 'medium' or 'firm' so buying online is a bit of a guessing game. As mentioned earlier, heavier people and back sleepers need firmer mattresses than slighter people and side sleepers.
