Hypnos vs Hyde-And-Sleep Mattresses

I tried this Hypnos mattress at our local store and knew instantly, that having looked for some time for a wool mattress that this was the one. The sales person at the store was very informative and there was currently a competitive price on it. It is an expensive mattress but learning about the credentials of Hypnos and how many hours of a life are spent sleeping, it seemed a sound investment. Bensons really provide a good service, taking away our old mattress, and the crew who delivered it were friendly and professional. The mattress initially felt hard, but that is to be expected with a new bed. I have been rotating it once a week and can feel that it is beginning to relax. It feels higher than our previous mattress and quite luxurious. One of the factors that drew me to a wool mattress was to have cooler night sleeps. As its winter I've yet to test this out. Overall I am really pleased with this mattress, and am sleeping much better than previously. The only negative is the wait for delivery which was around 2 months! However I believe that this is because it is a quality product with hand made attention. Finally the follow up email communications with Bensons has been great, which makes you feel that you are a valued customer.

I waited approximately 6 weeks and several mattress turns before my review for my Hypnos Earth 01. I changed my original mattress from Bensons for this one, big upgrade £ wise. I wanted a firm mattress with a soft outer. I took the advice and swapped for the Hypnos 01 Firm instead of Extra firm. The mattress is super comfortable just dips a little when in it (I weigh 9.5 stone). I have never slept better so now I can justify the outlay! No getting used to it at all, I drop off so quickly and stay asleep all night. On reflection I would have ordered the Extra firm as this mattress is well padded with my theory being it might last longer but I know diddly squat about mattresses to be honest. Really impressed with Hypnos though, lovely quality. Onto Bensons; they were so helpful. On changing my mattress to communications generally just excellent. From customer services, the delivery coordinator and the delivery guys. It really blows your mind when you get really good service these days, they follow through on everything. My sister in law recommended them, she wouldn't use any other company and I see why! Highly recommend and many thanks to you all. A happy sleeper ????

Having conducted much research into getting a new mattress I'd decided that I did not want any which would be involved in the involvement with too much in the way of chemicals being used such as can be found in many foam mattresses. Also given the fact that people might readily shell out £2k on a two week holiday but then scrimp on spending the same amount on a mattress ( which they would potentially spend a third of their lifetime sleeping on ) I decided that if they're good enough for royalty then they're just about good enough for me. I plumped for the Hypnos Earth 2 ( even though it has hardly any reviews) and am very pleased with my purchase three weeks later. It offers decent support yet isn't too hard and my backache has subsided somewhat since and am sleeping better. So my verdict is to go for it and at least try one…after all you only live once ( on Earth- get it ? ?? )

Overall, very happy with the mattress. I selected it based on the advice from going on the bed in store that assesses your sleeping position. I think I’ve previously had medium mattresses and this one comes up as firm, but I find it soft and supportive. I’m used to a sprung base with foam topper, despite the description making me think this had some sort of micro spring set up it does seem to be essentially all foam. I’m a lot less aware of my husband moving around in his sleep so I guess the foam set up is working. Two small problems that I have with it - firstly it recommends you rotate on a weekly basis for the first three months but it’s really awkward to rotate. There are some handles but they’re underneath the mattress rather than on the side. It’s quite a dense mattress and pretty much a deadweight to try and rotate. The second irritation is that the sheet and mattress protector won’t stay in place. The texture of the mattress cover is particularly slippery and correctly sized fitted sheet keeps on shifting.

looked around.. so many options.. all different prices. We saw this one.. the design was exactly what we were looking for and the price.. was a bit cheap to be honest.. I wondered if we were going to the end up with something flimsy and cheap.. we didn't! This bed is amazing.. the quality is top notch. Gorgeous thick headboard in luxurious fabric.. same on the bed base. The mattress is firm and comfy. No "rolling together" or anything. It is a thick mattress.. no buttons or springs to be felt. We love it. The only thing we did was get some anti slip Matt to put under the mattress to stop or slipping around. I'm a fidget.. that's the only reason why. Fabulous bed.. comfy and quality. I would recommend it to everyone. Lovely delivery guys as well brought it upstairs for us. Service with a smile. Professional. kept me informed of the delivery time as well. Thank you very much ????

The mattress seemed firmer than the one tested in the store. I phoned customer services two days after I received the mattress to have this logged. I chose this mattress as I was experiencing joint pain when waking from sleep on my original mattress. I have to say I don’t experience joint pain in the morning now. How the mattress regulates heat I am unsure my wife experiences hot flushes at times and the cooling properties the mattress makes no difference. But no mattress can regulate for hot flushes for to menopause. The edges are firm and hold shape when getting in and out of bed. There is no roll together and the mattress memory foam returns to shape when out of bed. My previous mattress had visible indentations showing where my wife and I sleeped after only a few weeks of use. So I am impressed with this but will be looking out for this over the next few months.

I initially loved this pillow. However, it does go very flat, very quickly. The cool side is amazing for those of us who are of a certain age and suffer the hot flushes in the night. The opposite side is lovely and soft but too warm for me. I love the way the pillow scrunches up under my neck. The only issue for me is that it does need to be constantly 'plumped' and does not keep its shape. I have reverted back to my Tempur Original pillow which is very comfortable but does not stay cool like this one. Note to the designers of this pillow "if this pillow can be made to keep its shape better it will be perfect". I have bought many many pillows trying to find ones that suit me best and this rates as 9/10 and would be 10/10 if it did not go flat. For those of you looking for a cool pillow - it is perfect.

I am a front sleeper and was looking for a firm mattress. Previous mattresses that were not firm enough caused me lower back ache and a stiff spine every morning. This mattress, although classed as firm, did not prevent this back ache and stiff spine. I would class this mattress as medium and think it is more suited to side sleepers. Instead, I ended up switching to the Hyde & Sleep Original mattress which was also classed as firm, but the difference between the 2 is quite significant. The Hyde & Sleep Original mattress does prevent back ache and the stiff spine so I got there in the end! I remember when trying out the various mattresses in the Dreams shop, the Hyde & Sleep Deluxe Ice mattress, classed as medium, felt firmer than the Hybrid Ice mattress which is classed as firm.
