Slumberland vs Dunlopillo Mattresses

Before purchasing this Benson's mattress (bensonsforbeds.co.uk), I discovered that the firmness of a mattress should be determined by a person's weight and sleeping position. There are many guides on the internet about this, such as sleepfoundation/best-mattress/mattress-firmness I am approx. 168 lbs in weight and a side sleeper, so I was very confident a good quality mattress which was medium firmness would be the best firmness for me. I am not disappointed with the Slumberland Natural Solutions 2000 medium firmness mattress. It is very comfortable although it feels much harder than my old mattress which was 17 years old and completely worn out. I chose the Natural Solutions 2000 mattress as it has natural fillings which are more breathable than foam layer mattresses. These natural fillings allow body heat to dissipate more efficiently than foam layered mattresses. This was very important to me as I live in a very well insulated building in a 1st floor flat, which also receives a lot of direct sunlight through the windows throughout the day and I tend to be a slightly 'hot' sleeper. I have not felt too warm in bed during August 2023 with my new Naturals mattress. The Slumberland Natural Solutions 2000 is also very good value for money when compared with other similar mattresses on the internet. The outer material feels high quality and so do the pocket springs when lying on them. It has 2000 pocket springs which helps isolate any movement a sleeping partner might make which helps to aid a good night's sleep, especially if someone sleeps with a 'restless' sleeper. Kyle was the friendly and helpful salesperson who I saw at Benson's showroom in Yeovil. I recommend the Slumberland Natural Solutions 2000 Medium Firmness mattress and Benson's showroom in Yeovil :)

Albeit expensive, what an absolutely fantastic mattress. We tried a few in the store (Llandudno) and were given loads of different tips, advice, and guidance, but this one really stood it for us in terms of quality, comfort, and price. We bought this alongside a King-sized ottoman and we could not be happier. Having used this mattress for just over two weeks, it's somewhat hard to believe, but we have slept-through the night every single night since we bought it, which isn't common for us! It is ridiculously comfortable, and just gets comfier the longer you lie on it. There is plenty of room to lie in comfort without disturbing the other person, and it doesn't seem to get too hot at night either. Despite the 1-star reviews - which I 100% disagree with - we have tried and tried to replicate the 'rolling over disturbs the other person' claim but it's just not true! The mattress seems to give a perfect balance when rolling over, and when awake or asleep, you can barely feel it. Once you're lying down, you just get comfier and you tend to stay in the same position without gettimg achey or fidgety which is great. I am a side-sleeper, and other half is a front-sleeper, and we adore this mattress. It suits us both perfectly. Our main concerns are that it is quite a tall mattress, so feels quite high off the ground/our bedside table at times (especially with our ottoman bedfeame), and extra deep fitted sheets only just cover the mattress on each side. We also just have a mattress topper, but are considering getting a full mattress cover (i.el wrap around the whole thing) instead, just to protect it that little bit more around the edges.

I wanted to use the mattress for a while before posting a review so after having slept on it for 2 months . - woke up after the first night and realised I got up without backpain. I have a crushed vertebrae and most mornings I ache so this was a good start. 60 nights later I have also discovered that if I have back pain after a day I go to bed and I wake up with less pain so the mattress is definitely aiding my aches very well. - I suffer from insomnia and yet again since having bought this mattress I have been sleeping so well that even those nights are getting less and less. When I do have sleepless nights it is so comfortable it doesn't bother me to lay awake and just listen to some relaxing music. I have medium firmness by the way. The one thing I have noticed is that the topper is not holding its shape all that well. It's only me using the mattress so that's a bit of a concern at the moment and something I will need to watch as the months go by. But after a lifetime of mattresses and back pain and sleepless nights this is the one and only mattress that so far has aided that THE BEST. Definitely worth buying if you have struggled with some of the same issues I have.

Delivery day felt like Christmas had come a week early. We spent hours in the Exeter store and the "regional floater", or, Corniche Steve I believe he said his name was. Excellent service and after hours of testing with combinations of pillows and a good 10 minutes on every other mattress, yes, EVERY, mattress in the store we were certain that this was the one. Took a few hours break and visited other local shops, none of which compared in quality of product, cleanliness of showroom or overall customer service. We returned a second time and headed straight fir this mattress and the rest is history. Took delivery today which again was a great experience. A call from the courier first thing to let us know today was still the delivery date, then another call an hour before arriving to make sure we were ready for them and then a quick and easy delivery straight to the bedroom. Benson, give Cornish Steve a bonus, he deserves it, and keep doing what you are doing. Your competitors are lacking behind and we will highly recommend you and your team to anyone looking to invest n their next bed. And now, if you don't mind, I'm off to sleep in this incredible bed for the first time.

This type of mattress was very new to me. I had my previous mattress for far too long and it was of the old style, 'standard' depth. So when I visited Bensons for Beds, both online and in person, I didn't know mattresses could be so high! I chose a firm mattress, because my previous mattress was semi-orthopaedic. I liked the technology of the Duo 1000 2-1 mattress and I slept on the 'warm' side. It definitely kept me warm during the night, to the point where I could sometimes push off the duvet! However, after a few nights, I soon realised that, as a 'side sleeper' I was feeling achy in my shoulders and in my hips when I awoke. I tried sleeping on my back and that was a bit better. I found that the firmness of the mattress was most suited to those who slept on their back, especially if you have a straight back. So I am very grateful for Benson's 40 night trial, which enabled me to return to their store and choose a medium mattress instead. Though expensive, it is worth investing in the right mattress for your body to get a good night's sleep, so you wake up rested, not achy. I shall review the new mattress separately in the near future.

If you purchased this pillow and expected it to be soft and cushioned like the one in the shop then you'll be wrong. Take it out the supplied white pillow case which makes it rock hard. Purchase a soft box shape pillow case and it transforms the pillow completely. I couldn't sleep well with it for weeks and persevered with different normal pillow cases. Once I purchased the box shape it was a game changer. I've used it for nearly 6 months now after removing the supplied pillow case and had no issues. Wish I'd known that in the first two weeks of restless nights.

Love my new mattress, tried several Dunlopillo mattresses in shops and like the gentle support of this one. For me it offers the support with out being too hard. Tries a few orthopaedic mattresses and just found them uncomfortable. It's a bit more than I planned to spend but have no regrets. Decided to buy online as it was in stock so received next day and they took my old one away which was a God send.

A expensive item and took some getting use to, but it's ok now. Because of its composition it does have a certain smell, which is fading with time. To be honest I'm not sure if I'd buy another one, but as I haven't really used it for that long I'll have to reserve judgement on that. I do get less neck ache when I wake up in the morning than I did with my original pillow, so that's a bonus.

I only read previous reviews after buying this pillow. Quite surprised. We get on with these pillows well. Comfortable. Bit of a struggle to fit into a normal pillow case but we'd just bought some John Lewis pillowcases which are an extra couple of cms wide and they fit fine. I previously used 3 very cheap pillows but only need 1 of the Dunlopillo hybrid. They are very firm but comfortable .

I first had a new Dunlopillo mattress (bed) in 1984 and I slept comfortably everafter. I reluctantly had to get rid in 1912 as i was downsizing and moving many miles down south taking only the two single beds in my spare room , which had nothing wrong with them but not as comfortable as I thought. I decided to return to what I knew and I'm so glad I did, my new mattress is heavenly!
