  • Offers a rejuvenating rest by flawlessly alleviating aches and pains.
  • Reinforced metal rod system provides durable border support and maximises sleep space, preventing 'roll-off' or 'roll-together' feeling.
  • Soft polyester comfort layer relieves built-up pressure for a calming, weightless feel.
  • The double-sided design of the mattress and the handy turning handles make maintenance easy and stress-free.
  • Praised for its firm yet comfortable support, delivering a good value for money.
  • Potential for indentations: Some customers have noticed that the mattress tends to develop indentations over time, suggesting issues with long-term durability.
  • Slight bounce: Despite the orthopedic design, a few reviews report the mattress to be a little bouncy, which could disturb light sleepers who share the bed.

Testing Team Takeaways

To test the Bodyshape Vitality Tufted Ortho Mattress we have people from our testing team take a closer look at the mattress and form their own opinions. Below is their observations.

This Bodyshape Vitality Tufted Ortho Mattress sure aims high with its firm posture support and lush comfort features. As a combination sleeper, I appreciate the open coil Bonnell spring structure that provides the necessary sprightliness to juggle my night-time manoeuvres seamlessly, despite its limited range in crucial pressure relief. The traditionally tufted design adds an air of vintage sophistication while the quilted border offers extra edge support, though the flip-side feature might bring a tad bit of inconvenience for someone my size. Overall, based on extensive customer reviews and specifications, it seems like a strong contender amongst cheaper mattresses for the combination sleepers - oozing simplicity with a dash of resilience.

Why our sleep experts loved it

Introduction

Good sleep is non-negotiable - it's the cornerstone of our overall health and wellbeing. An essential factor that drives sound sleep is the comfort your mattress provides. The Bodyshape Vitality Tufted Ortho Mattress promises to be a game-changer in the world of slumber with its focus on alleviating postural aches, without burning a hole in your pocket. While we weren't able to test the product in-store, we have thoroughly analysed the product's specifications, customer reviews, and its overall composition to give you an in-depth review.

How we tested

In an ideal world, we would have liked to perform a rigorous in-store assessment of this mattress, but unfortunately, we were unable to do so. However, we have left no stone unturned in our analysis of this product. Our methodical approach involved careful analysis of the product's specifications, design, and features. Coupled with the first-hand experiences received from a plethora of customer reviews, we've dissected every detail from its comfort level to its durability to gauge its effectiveness. This bird's eye view assessment provides us with a broader understanding since it includes diverse user experiences that consider variation in user's weight, sleeping position, and personal comfort preference.

Design and Features

The Bodyshape Vitality Tufted Ortho Mattress brings to you a perfect blend of comfort and durability. Its centrepiece is a sturdy open coil bonnell spring structure that assures full body support while also ensuring that you don't sink too deep and are held in a comforting embrace. This mattress provides a personalised care to your unique shape due to the responsive nature of the springs. Aesthetically, the mattress is traditionally tufted and comes with a quilted border giving it a classic finish. Contrary to many other mattresses, this one is double-sided implying more extended durability. The sturdy border of the mattress is provided with a reinforced metal rod system to avoid sagging and facilitate undisturbed slumber. As an added convenience, the mattress also comes with innovative turning handles to make it easy to flip and rotate.

Mattress Comfort

When it comes to comfort, the Bodyshape Vitality Tufted Ortho Mattress scores well. Its open coil bonnell spring structure, coupled with the polyester comfort layer, does an excellent job of relieving pressure and providing a comforting embrace. The mattress has a medium to firm comfort rating, making it apt for the correct alignment of your spine whilst also relieving pressure on your joints. However, despite the comfort, the mattress provides, the tufting does create a slightly firmer feel that might be uncomfortably firm for some.

Suitability

The Bodyshape Vitality Tufted Ortho Mattress comes with a medium to firm base that encourages soothing spinal alignment. This makes it an ideal choice for back sleepers or those suffering from back pain. However, if you're a side sleeper or a person with an hourglass figure, you might need to consider a slightly softer tension for more comfort and sinkage. Furthermore, it's worth mentioning that while it offers firm orthopaedic support, the tufting makes the mattress feel more firm and might not be to everyone’s personal preference.

What Customers Thought

Customer reviews for the Bodyshape Vitality Tufted Ortho Mattress were generally positive. Several customers have praised the mattress for its comfort, firm support, and affordability. However, some reviewers noted that they noticed dents in the mattress after use. It's worth mentioning here that a certain degree of indentation is quite common in mattresses and might not necessarily serve as a red flag. Some users appreciated the comfortable sleep they experienced, while others enjoyed the prompt delivery service and the convenience of recycling their old one. A few found it slightly bouncy but were overall happy with the quality provided at such a competitive price.

The Verdict

The Bodyshape Vitality Tufted Ortho Mattress is a budget-friendly choice that doesn't compromise on comfort and support. Its open coil bonnell spring structure, cosy cushioning, and added features like reinforced edge support and turning handles are notable features. However, while it seems to be the perfect classified comfort for back sleepers and those in search of a firmer mattress, it may not suit everyone's comfort preference due to the tufting making it feel more firm than expected.

Typically, when considering mattress reviews, it's important to remember that comfort is subjective and varies on an individual basis. Be sure to consider your personal preferences and the above factors when making a selection. With careful consideration, the Bodyshape Vitality Tufted Ortho Mattress could potentially be an excellent choice for a revitalizing and restful night's sleep.

Suitability

*Assuming average weight, suitability will vary dependant on body type, use the quiz above for a more tailored guide.
  • Back Sleepers
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • The amount of support offered from a mattress will vary depending on the firmness of the tension and the type of support layer used. Based on a person of average build.
  • Side Sleepers
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • If you sleep on your side you typically need a supportive tension that is not too firm, nor too soft. This is because your hips and shoulders need adequate sinkage.
  • Stomach Sleepers
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Stomach sleepers need a reasonable amount of tension in the base support layer to adequately offer body contouring and help prevent aches and pains. Results will vary based on your build.

Performance

  • Stability
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Depending on the type of support layer in place can have an impact on stability, edge to edge support and roll together prevention. Pocket springs of a firmer tension will have better stability than open coil soft tension, for example.

Ease of Use

  • Turning handles
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Mattresses typically need to be rotated frequently and having turning handles can be massively beneficial, particularly in larger sizes which can become fairly heavy.

Odour

  • Initial Odour
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Materials in mattresses, particularly memory foam and rolled bed-in-a-box mattresses can have an initial odour, this is typically short term and reduces considerably within 24 hours.
  • Long Standing Odour
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Certain materials inside different mattresses can produce a small odour. Typically this is short term rather than long standing but there are minor exceptions.

akelly123
Is this mattress suitable for both side and back sleepers?

Answer: This medium firm tension is perfect for accommodating both side and back sleepers, providing good comfort and support regardless of sleeping position assuming the sleeper has an average weight. Though side sleepers with an hourglass figure might need to consider a slightly softer tension for sinkage, back sleepers should get really good support from the medium firm tension. Thanks, Katie

Is the mattress bouncy?

Answer: While being firm, the mattress retains some natural bounce-back, responding to the individual's movements, which some customers have described as a bit bouncy. It comes down to personal preference whether this is seen as a positive or negative aspect.

Does the mattress create dents after prolonged use?

Answer: Based on a customer review, it appears that the mattress might form dents where it has been lain on. This isn't unusual for mattresses and doesn't necessarily impact comfort or support. Regular rotation and flipping could help manage this.
