Harrison-Spinks

Harrison Spinks is a generational family business that has captured the spirit of the entire hand-made portion of the industry thanks to their traditional materials and handcrafting excellence. The range is of a much higher quality than many competing brands and as a result the price point is typically found within the higher-end but the result is a bespoke nights sleep that will ooze excellence.

Feedback initially looks like the standard lead time has returned across much of the lineup with the majority of the range made-to-order and on 6 week delivery schedules.

Coolflex

Coolflex is a value hybrid mattress range sold exclusively through MattressNextDay. The brand has grown from a single rolled mattress into a catalogue covering multiple construction types with a specific focus on cooling technology at accessible pricing. The range includes the Essentials Pocket Memory Hybrid, Premium Memory Hybrid, Hybrid Ice, Hybrid Chill and Lux Ortho Pocket, each targeting a different buyer profile.

What makes Coolflex worth looking at is the combination of proper pocket spring hybrid construction with cooling-focused materials at prices that undercut the major direct-to-consumer brands. For hot sleepers shopping on a budget, Coolflex is one of the first alternatives to consider.

Harrison-Spinks Owner Satisfaction

Customers have had universally favourable experiences with this brand which is quite impressive given the price point. Typically we find that when the price of mattresses starts to lead toward the high-end, customers' expectations can sometimes be distorted which results in a less-favourable experience. Thankfully that is not the case with many happy with the quality of the materials, in particular the wool top layer that often features and is both soft and luxurious, complementing the pocket spring base layer nicely.

Harrison-Spinks Supportiveness

The support materials utilised in all Harrison Spinks products is a reliable pocket spring base layer. Pocket springs continue to be the best option for support, offering measured and reliable body contouring across the entire mattress and featuring edge to edge even support and roll together prevention.

Firmness within the range varies but has a pivot toward medium and medium firm tension mattresses all of which are made from luxurious materials and hand made in the UK. Interestingly, Harrison Spinks is the partner of choice for many of the sub-brands sold throughout the popular retailer. The result of this is a Flaxby & Feather and Black sub-division of quality mattresses that will be of equal interest to those looking for a good quality and highly rewarding nights sleep.

Harrison-Spinks Durability

I think the most important stat when it comes to durability is around the warranty and guarantee periods. After all, if the manufacturer doesn’t believe in their product, why would you? Thankfully you get a 5 year guarantee at minimum across the majority of products on show which comes fairly close to the average replacement period of 7 years for the industry as a whole.

Durability generally doesn’t look to be a concern as both the reviews and compounds used suggest positive experiences with longevity.

Coolflex Owner Satisfaction

Coolflex reviews are consistently strong on two specific points: the cooling performance is real rather than marketing decoration, and the value for money at this price tier is hard to beat from the mainstream alternatives. MattressNextDay handles delivery and returns reliably, which gives the buying experience a stable foundation that standalone budget brands often lack.

Hot sleepers are the buyer profile most likely to rate Coolflex highest, because the cooling technology in the Hybrid Ice and Hybrid Chill models delivers a measurable difference from standard foam alternatives. The main complaint pattern we see relates to edge support on the entry-tier models, which improves as you step up through the range.

Coolflex Supportiveness

The pocket spring cores across the Coolflex hybrid range provide genuine structural support that pure foam alternatives at similar prices typically lack. The Premium Memory Hybrid is the sweet spot for most buyers, with a spring count and foam layer depth that handles average weight sleepers across back and side positions comfortably. The Lux Ortho Pocket handles the firmer end for stomach sleepers and back pain sufferers.

The Hybrid Ice and Hybrid Chill add cooling layers on top of the pocket spring base and are the models to look at specifically for hot sleepers who want temperature regulation alongside the hybrid support structure.

Coolflex Durability

The pocket spring and foam hybrid construction that Coolflex uses across the range is the build type we generally expect to last longest at this price tier. Pocket springs provide structural longevity that all-foam alternatives cannot match, and the foam layers above use reasonable densities for the price point. MattressNextDay backing gives the brand a retail infrastructure that supports warranty claims.

As a newer brand, the long-term durability data is limited compared with heritage manufacturers like Silentnight or Sealy, but the construction approach is sound and the early-year review data is consistent with what you would expect from a well-made hybrid at this price.

Quality is obvious. If we hadn??t had a tempur for over ten years, I would say this is a really comfy bed and would be happy for its life time use. Albeit, only five years gauranteed!Having had a tempur though, I would probably revert back.Mainly due to spouse requiring that extra softness and a complete awareness removal from any turn/roll movement by partner. While this is a fantastic make and constructed with the Best Materials, we have been served well with the tempur and too be honest, can say, there aren??t any regrets with the purchase.

5 Charles Salisbury

I had my old mattress for years so I thought I would treat myself to a new but better one and came across this company who have a large range of mattresses so I wanted one with lots of springs and better support than my old one so I choose this one ,it's thicker than my old one but gives me that support I was after and it also has handles on both sides so will be easier to move when needed ,a good purchase.

5 Verified Buyer

After reading reviews I was sceptical as I was worried the edges would give in. On the first day I sat at the edge and it did leave a dent where I had been sitting but moments later it sprung back to original shape. For me this mattress is perfect. I needed a firm mattress and to add a little extra softness I bought a mattress topper. Very good night's sleep.

5 Verified Buyer

I have been looking for a good quality pocket mattress for a while, needed one that was firmish to support my back, but didn't want to feel like the floor.After speaking with the a sales person they steered me in this direction and I couldn't be happier.My back is liking the mattress as is my sleep. A good buy.

5 Verified Buyer

Mattress manages to be wonderfully supportive but wonderfully soft at the same time. I've always bought firm mattresses, and this feels like a good supportive orthopaedic but with a softer topper. It's the most comfortable I've ever had, and I'd definitely buy this brand again in future.

Very glad I didn't spend 900 on a mattress (as I was going to!), As this one is absolutely perfect and didn't break the bank (hurray!) Its soft on top, but firm and supportive... My partner and I do not roll into each other in the night as pre my previous mattress. We both sleep really soundly on this mattress which suprises me as he actually prefers really really firm memory firm mattresses that feel like concrete!! Doesnt give me back pains like my previous mattress, wake up refreshed. Something I was worried about for the low price tag! The edges are not reinforced so do sag if you sit on the edge of the bed - but its fine when you are asleep//roll onto the edge - ie, you dont end up falling off as with some mattress that are not reinforced!. It does get a bit hot with the memory foam, but after putting a bottom sheet on, it isnt as bad as it was on the first couple of nights.

4 Jillian Knight

Very good quality mattress! great support throughout and good degree of comfort. Mattress came rolled up so needed approx 24 hours to properly settle and for all the creases to disappear before I could use this. This time for the mattress to fully open was stated in the delivery note so I was not concerned about the wait. The only issue I noticed was the mattress is fairly heavy to move due to the number of springs inside, and there are no carrying handles on the sides that would have helped to assist with moving and positioning the mattress. Otherwise I am very happy with this product.

5 Eileen Smith

When I ordered 'next day delivery', I was sceptical. I need not have been. I received an email advising a next day delivery slot of 9.40 - 11.40 and the mattress was delivered at 11.15. The delivery guys were lovely carried it up to the bedroom. It was a great service. I only wish you did next day delivery black 5 drawer chest of drawers, as I have been badly let down by littlewoods and they had up to 15 days to deliver. Let me down badly and so I cancelled. I would recommend your company to friends and family. Thank you.

4 Nik Pringle

You need to ensure you have the mattress the right way up - indifferent nights sleep until I spotted it was upside down! getting used to it after a couple of nights, the edges of the bed are not as firm as our previous sprung one making it slightly uncomfortable to sit on the edge. There is also a tendency to roll together into the middle - hence 4 * as opposed to the full 5. I tend to find memory foam mattresses sleep "hotter" than normal ones - fine at the moment but may be a bit warm if we get a good summer.

5 Dawn

I was actually surprised with the quality and comfort of this mattress considering its very reasonable price. It was delivered rolled in several layers of polythene, which was necessary to contain it. It is a lovely deep mattress and so comfortable. I would recommend it to anyone, and am positive it has to be as good as any mattress considerably more expensive. Id been prone to back and hip aching problems on a mattress that wasnt right, this mattress solved that after first night.
