Therapur

Therapur mattresses have been around for a number of years now as a staple of the Dreams retailers core lineup. Sold exclusively through the retailer, this brand sits at the mid-high end range and commonly features high quality pocket springs as a base layer with gel often accompanying the comfort layer. Ideal for those that want to be kept cool while they sleep, this range of mattresses has plenty of long term reviews and are frequently praised for their high quality.

Therapur has a vast array of different mattresses in different tensions helping to ensure that there is something for everyone regardless of how you sleep and your own preference.

Otty

Otty is a British brand that started in 2017 and has grown quickly into one of the most recognised hybrid mattress names on the UK market. The company is based in Leeds and sells direct to the customer, cutting out the middle man in the traditional bed retail chain and passing the savings on in the form of long trial periods and sensible prices.

Their hybrid lineup pairs cooling gel infused memory foam with individually encased pocket springs, and it is the hybrid build that Otty is best known for. Every mattress ships vacuum packed in a box, and buyers get a 100 night home trial along with a 10 year guarantee.

Therapur Owner Satisfaction

You’ll be in good hands with Therapur, having over 12,000 positive reviews to date and with many more flowing in each day, it’s easy to see that many customers appreciate the quality and cost make-up of these mattresses. Customers particularly enjoy the gel comfort layer, something you don’t often get elsewhere. This gel layer keeps you cool while you sleep and is an ideal barrier that sits between the springs and your body to give you a refreshing and soft nights sleep that is suitable all-season long.

Unlike memory foam varieties, there are no substantive reports of people waking up through heat build up and night-sweats although there have been some complaints around getting the right tension. Fortunately the Therapur umbrella of products all come with a 40-night sleep guarantee which ensures customer satisfaction or replacement for a more suitable model.

Therapur Durability

Durability remains impressive for the Therapur line up, however, we were disappointed with the 1 year guarantee often quoted on many of the mattresses, particularly given the non-budget price tag associated with the products. That said, many settlement and durability issues that do crop up with all mattresses are often due to a manufacturing defect which will typically appear within that first year of ownership. As such, the one year guarantee, while not ideal, doesn’t seem to be causing anyone to be “caught out”.

Beyond the guarantee, durability itself seems to be good provided manufacturer care instructions are adhered to in the form of frequent rotation to ensure adequate and even settlement of fillings and springs. Failure to comply with the rotation guidelines for Therapur products can result in uneven settlement which is best avoided.

Generally, Therapur mattresses are hard wearing and durable with the combination of good quality pocket springs, hard wearing cover and gel comfort layer pairing fantastically to offer ultimate comfort that lasts.

Otty Owner Satisfaction

Otty mattresses sit at around 4.7 out of 5 across the review sites we track, which is close to the top of the hybrid category in the UK. Most of the praise focuses on two things: the genuinely cool feel, which comes from the breathable cover and the open spring layer, and the edge support, which is noticeably firmer than most foam rivals.

Couples tend to rate Otty higher than single sleepers, because the pocket springs absorb movement well and the firm edges mean nobody rolls towards the middle. The mattress is on the firmer side of medium, so side sleepers who want a very soft feel sometimes find it a little too supportive, but for most average weight sleepers the firmness works out just right.

Otty Supportiveness

The Otty Original Hybrid uses a top layer of cooling gel memory foam over a reflex foam transition layer and a core of pocket springs. Each spring moves independently, which is why the mattress copes well with two people of different weights sleeping side by side. The foam layers add enough pressure relief for the shoulders and hips, and the spring core keeps the lower back properly supported without letting anyone sink into a hammock shape.

For heavier sleepers over about 16 stone, Otty also makes the Pure Hybrid Plus, which has a reinforced spring unit and thicker comfort layers to stop the mattress bottoming out. In both models, the support level is one of the things owners consistently pick out as a strong point.

Otty Durability

Otty uses a high gauge spring unit and good quality foams above it, which is the right recipe for a mattress that holds its shape over the long run. The cover is removable and washable, which is unusual at this level of the market and helps the mattress stay fresh over the years.

Long term owners we have spoken to report very little sagging at the three and four year mark, and the 10 year guarantee gives a clear signal of how much life the brand expects out of its own product. Given the materials and the build, Otty mattresses are well positioned to last the seven to ten years that most buyers are looking for.

    I purchased this bed as a necessity following admission to hospital. I suffer from arthritis in my 5th, 6th and 7th vertebrae as well as my back, which means I have to have a really good bed to meet my needs. Neither can I lie on a bed which has buttons. I also suffer from night sweats and even though my last bed was cooling, it does not compare. Even with the Dreams mattress protector this bed still has the cooling effect, which I haven’t found elsewhere. The temperature control is a big issue for me Having trawled round various well known bedding shops I was very reluctant to buy as I was concerned that I would not be able to change it if I found it not to be suitable. Eventually I ended up at Dreams whom I understood now to be part of the Tempur group. The lady assistant could not have been more helpful and her customer service was impeccable. Having already tried so many beds I was very sceptical. I was surprised to find that the one I chose seemed to meet all my needs and was reasonably priced for such a high quality bed. The assistant reassured me that if I had any problems I could return it. The delivery was great and the men could not have been more helpful, contacting me at each stage. My first few nights I thought I was going to have to return it but after that the bed seemed to settle quickly and I have slept better than before. Since then I can honestly say that I have not woken in the night with pain in my back as a result of my bed. I am delighted with my new bed and would highly recommend. I purchased the pillows recommended to me too for my arthritic neck and to date I have not woken in the night or in the morning with bad neck pain. I could not be more delighted with my purchases from Dreams.

    I am a hot sleeper and suffer from Night Terrors if I get too warm while sleeping. I have to sleep with a fan on every night. I bought this duvet as it is a lower TOG than my old one and this is better quality. The Duvet is well made, the outer fabric is soft and it is stitched in sideways columns, this helps prevent the filling from moving around too much . It is light to the point where sometimes it feels like there is no duvet on you but it still keeps you warm (I cannot feel the air from the fan go through the duvet) It took me a few nights to get used to the lighter weight but its so much cooler and I am finding myself sleeping better. I have combined this duvet with 400 Thread count, cotton duvet covers and fitted sheet in an attempt to further reduce overheating while sleeping. I recommend this duvet to anyone who prefers to be cool while sleeping, It is light and well made but can still keep you warm on the cold nights. If you are not a fan of light duvets then I'd recommend either getting a higher TOG Duvet or find a light/medium weighted blanket to go on top.

    We purchased a king size divan base and attachable headboard in store and, in summary, the store experience, the product, and the delivery process and all of the related pre delivery information have been excellent ... with just one niggle resulting in a less than 5 star review. This relates to the matching attachable headboard which also looks great and is excellent quality like the divan Ottoman base. That said, despite the delivery guys, who assembled everything, chocking the headboard as far from base as they could, the headboard still sits over the top of the base by about an inch. This results in the king sized mattress (that should fit perfectly) being pushed an inch down the base and hence results in the mattress overhanging the bottom of the divan base by just over an inch. It's not end of the world stuff but seems a pretty basic design flaw and, in our mind, results in the made up bed looking just that bit odd due to this small overhang.

    I recently took my 79yr Dad to Cheltenham Dreams to buy his first brand new bed. He did know he wanted a very firm mattress but apart from that he didnt have a idea of what was a good bed to buy. Thank goodness for Aaron. He was fantastic & took a long time showing my Dad all the different beds & firm mattresses. He showed Dad all the beds, which included Dreams beds, or other more expensive ones. Aaron put us under no pressure whatsoever to buy from Dreams or to purchase the more expensive bed. He described the differences in the beds very well & clear. Aaron made the whole experience seemless & due to Aaron's professionalism & outstanding advice Dad chose Dreams to purchase his new bed from. He's extremely happy with his purchase & was very impressed how quickly the two delivery drivers got his bed put together & ready to use. We'd definitely recommend to friends.

    I searched for weeks in different shops looking for a bed that would, suit my needs and give me a good nights sleep. O have a back problem and a lung disease which causes me to have difficult nights, I'm restless and can never get comfortable at night to sleep. I finally found the one, the one bed that had not only given me the ability to feel relaxed and comfortable but i SLEEP. This is a big deal to me ,as i can sometimes go several night without any. The bed mattress exterior in a lovely soft light padding, and although the mattress is class as soft its still firm enough, that it allows my spine the correct position. I feel the mattress almost cuddles me up as i sink in to it . I also got it at a slightly reduced price in the sale. Thank you Dreams so much.

    The plush comfort yet firm support is really impressive. It must be due to the mixed layers of wool, silk, and cashmere along with the firm pocket-spring core. Truly, it is a good balance.

    Really comfortable and noticeably cooler than my last mattress, definite improvement in my sleep quality. Unboxing was easy and it expanded to full size quickly.
