Mike Knowlden Author Profile @WantMattress

Mike Knowlden
Health Reviewer and Sleep Expert
Mike Knowlden’s role at WantMattress is a checking one. He reads health and sleep content for accuracy before it is published and makes sure product claims are properly supported.
Catching overstatement is most of the work. A claim that a mattress cures back pain, for instance, gets reworded to what the evidence actually supports, with a link to a reputable source.
Anything that crosses into medical territory is pointed towards the NHS or a qualified professional rather than answered in-house. The review is about accuracy, not diagnosis.
