Testing team takeaways

To test the Dream Team Fowey 1000 Pocket Memory Mattress we have people from our testing team take a closer look at the mattress and form their own opinions. Below is their observations.

I tried the Dream Team Fowey 1000 Pocket Memory Mattress on the shop floor at a Dreams store, lying on my back as I normally would. At 68 kg, I'm sometimes wary of medium-firm mattresses feeling too hard, but this felt firm without being harsh. My weight felt evenly spread, with less pressure around my lower back. The memory foam followed my shape without letting me sink in too far, which I liked. I tend to feel warm, and there was a little warmth under me, but it didn't build up much during the few minutes I spent lying there.

What our reviewers found

Pros

  • Pocket springs move independently, so a partner's movement stays mostly on their side.
  • A perfect harmony of firmness and comfort, lends itself particularly well to side sleepers and those seeking better back support.
  • Enhanced with a cosy knitted cover and memory foam top, that elements enhance snoozing on this mattress a delightful experience.
  • Traditionally tufted for added durability, and the tufts keep the fillings in place.
  • Owners with back or hip pain often say they wake with fewer aches on it.

Cons

  • A couple of owners could feel the tufting buttons through the top; one wrote that "you can feel the buttons when you lie on it".
  • A handful of the lowest ratings report dips, sagging or squeaking within months, and two found the edge support poor.
  • Some felt the mattress was firmer than expected despite the top layer of memory foam.
  • It is single-sided, so the care guidance is to rotate it weekly for the first three months; one owner found that a nuisance.

It's not often that I come across a mattress so distinct and tailor-made with a perfect blend of design and functionality, effortlessly securing comfort in sleep that I find myself inclined to express my enthusiastic opinion unequivocally. The Dream Team Fowey 1000 Pocket Memory Mattress managed to do just that for me during my in-store review experience, prompting me to look at its properties, comfort level, and what owners have said about it. Also, do not mistake my evident appreciation for blind endorsement; I shall dissect the various aspects of this mattress with unflinching honesty.

Design and features

The Fowey 1000 Pocket Memory Mattress by Dream Team is an embodiment of nuanced design skill and material selection. Keeping in mind the wide variety of sleepers around, I found this mattress to be efficiently tailored to accommodate diverse sleep patterns. Its medium-firm comfort grade indicates extra support and provides a nuance of balance that I inherently appreciate in mattress design. For those who appreciate aesthetics as much as functionality, the cosy knitted cover of the mattress is pleasing to the touch, blending comfort with style.

The mattress is traditionally tufted, adding that element of durability without compromising on comfort. Its careful construction is evident, and it's made in the UK for Dream Team, Dreams' own label. Being single-sided, it needs regular rotation to help maintain the mattress's form in the long run.

Dream Team Fowey 1000 Pocket Memory Mattress

What shines through in this mattress is its pressure-relieving memory foam.1 It contours to an individual's bodily form, adjusting to their specific sleep requirements, and the pocket springs underneath keep a partner's movement from carrying across the bed.

Mattress comfort

In-store testing is not equivalent to a good night's sleep, but it gave me an indication of the mattress's comfort level. The pocket springs layered with memory foam provided me with the impression of enveloping comfort that coalesced beautifully with the necessary firmness. However, remember that the memory foam, indulgent as it is, could potentially trigger heat-related discomfort for individuals prone to sweaty sleep scenarios.2 A short showroom test can't show how warm it sleeps overnight, so keep this in mind.

Suitability

The medium-firm tension of this mattress facilitates both back and side sleepers to find their comfort zone, but side sleepers would reap greater benefit. The adaptive support it offers to diverse sleeping positions is admirable. For instance, back sleepers who like a firmer surface may find it a notch soft. However, an average-weighted person should find unanimous comfort on this support layer without finding any glaring objections.

What customers thought

The reviews mostly back up my impression, though not all of them. Owners who are happy with it, and that is the large majority, come back to the same two things: it feels supportive without being hard, and it costs a good deal less than it feels like it should. One called it "firm but not solid"; another wrote that "we’ve bought mattresses x3 the price and honestly cannot tell the difference". Owners with back or hip pain often say they wake with fewer aches.

Firmness is where opinions split. A fair number of owners found it firmer than the one they tried in store, with one writing, "The one in the shop was definitely softer", though several who found it hard at first say it softened after a few weeks. Side sleepers mostly rate it, though one wanted it softer. One owner found the foam layer too soft, and two said the edge support was poor.

The lowest ratings are a small group, and they repeat a few things. Some woke with back or hip pain on it. Two owners could feel the tufting buttons through the top, and a handful report dips, sagging or squeaking within months. One wrote that "after 3 months it now squeaks if you sit or turn on it". Heat barely comes up: a few owners say it keeps them warm and one found it a little on the warm side, while a couple said it stays cool.

The verdict

With countless mattress options out there, where every claim sounds promising but not every product delivers, the Dream Team Fowey 1000 Pocket Memory Mattress stands as a reliable choice. The mattress offers an impressive collection of features and manages to strike that delicate balance between a cosy sleeping experience and optimal body support, providing the majority of users with a satisfactory sleep solution.

But as a seasoned reviewer, I must remind potential buyers that sleep preferences vary, and each individual may experience such products differently. Therefore, even with the reviews largely in its favour and prominence of dominant features, the Fowey 1000 Pocket Memory Mattress - just like any other product - may not hit the spot for some. That's where Dreams' comfort guarantee steps in, offering the comforting buffer of an exchange if the mattress isn't comfortable. I confidently recommend this mattress for sleepers seeking a blend of comfort, support, and durability in their sleeping endeavours.

Suitability

  • 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

  • Breathability
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Mattresses that feature breathable materials help promote airflow and keep you cool making for a more hygienic night's sleep.
  • Turning on mattress
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Certain materials like memory foam can make it difficult to move about on the mattress while you toss and turn. Same too for pillow tops which can create a cloud like sensation which can make manoeuvrability challenging.
  • 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.

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.

I was pleasantly surprised on the weight of the Fowey mattress as felt really light for a deep mattress. the look of the mattress is really good as well ,with its stylish handles stitched with the Olympic theme the top had a luxury look & feel to it. my wife suffers with rheumatoid arthritis so wasn't sure if she would get on with the new mattress but after the second night of sleeping on it she said her hips already felt better & that she loved it so win, win, as they say happy wife ,happy life, I myself also found the mattress very comfortable, and supportive. so all in all a very good mattress for the price bracket it is & i would rate this mattress to friends & colleagues.

My son who is 14, totally outgrew his double bed so we needed something more suitable for his ongoing growth. My son tried out this King Size mattress in our local Dreams store, because you just don't get to try the quality, when you purchase online. He loved the comfort and support this mattress provided. He's now been sleeping soundly and wake up feeling refreshed. Highly recommend this mattress. It has a layer of memory foam, yet not as expensive as a full memory foam mattress- so it's more budget friendly.

My daughter needed a new bed. We visited dreams and were met by a very nice young man who was helpful in is choosing the correct bedframe. We returned a few days later to choose a mattress, this time we were greeted by someone else who helped us choose the correct mattress. We now have a daughter who is getting a great nights sleep. The cats have also found the new bed and also agree it is a great bed.

Before the specific comments about the mattress I wish to say that the sales person, the process and the innovative sensing bed were excellent as were the delivery staff. The mattress is very well made. My comments therefore relate to my own personal experience. The sensing bed recommended a Firm Mattress however on trying a firm mattress in the shop as a side sleeper with arthritic knees my knees tended to be pushed out too far causing some pain.. I then reverted to the Dream Team Fowey 1000 Medium Firm Mattress which is a rare offering among manufacturers which had been the most comfortable of all that I had tried before using the sensing bed and was welll priced. My knees were not now in pain and the sales person noted that my knees were now aligned and the mattress appeared to be comfortable overall so I purchased this item and a matress duly arrived excellently delivered with the old one being removed to be recycled (at a cost). 5 weeks on and I am unfortunately consistently awaking with back shoulder and neck ache and the mattress appears to be softer than I thought I experienced in the shop but this is probably my imagination. I am going to seek advice on what my options are. So the lesson is that I should have gone with what the sensor bed technology indicated although the inputs did not allow for conditions such as arthritis to be considered. It just said other but very clever. One other thing of note is the statied sizing of the mattress. It states on the website 135cm x 190cm (4ft 6ins x 6ft 3ins). 135cm to which it seems accurately made is not 4ft 6" 54" but 53.15 ' . ( the tolerances stated on the website allow for this discrepancy) This means there is a gap around the mattress. Whilst this is I imagine to allow sufficient clearance fitting in a wooden bed frame such as I have , the compressibility of the mattress means one comes into contact with the wooden frame which can be painful with swollen legs when seated or putting on socks. A point I asked about at the intial discussion. So as I stated earlier I cannot fault the sales and delivery process which was excellent and the Matress is very well made.. However I thought it useful for readers to know of my experience and knowing now thatv perhaps I should have gone with the technology!

Buying a new bed...!!! Where do I start...I thought..? Whilst my daughter was driving me to Preston Hospital for an an appointment, we passed Dreams Beds..."Should we pop in there my daughter said, knowing it was something I needed. So I said "Yes Please "....Wow...what an amazing selection, I'd no idea there were so many different mattresses...the all important part of your bed !? I was advised to try them all out...see how they felt, was asked the right questions...how I slept.., did I prefer a firm or soft.mattress . Then I was asked to lie on a bed , which was geared up to where your body pressures actually were, on the bed....this helping them (Dreams) , show which mattress would be suitable for my body. It didn't take very long then....i knew when I'd laid on the right one. Then I was told ...if I didn't like it,within a hundred days, I could change it...amazing.!! So far, I'm Loving it....i chose firm...had back problems most of my life..but this mattress is brilliant, really suits my body. Thankyou Dreams...x

I have slept on this mattress for over 2 months now and it still feels hard I have been advised it can take time for my body to get use to it how long though really I even put a mattress topper on it. It feels nothing like the one in the shop you lie and that and think your lying on a cloud would rather have the one in the shop to lie on. I am still in my 100 days I get this but then you could exchange for another and still not be 100% I did hear refunds not available when bought in store. I just hope over time does feel like the one in the shop and that is what I guess people expect when they test a mattress and then buy it.

This mattress is a huge disappointment. It is extremely firm and very uncomfortable. I've been sleeping on it for a week, and instead of getting used to it, I'm waking up in pain every morning. The surface has noticeable bumps and dips that put pressure on hips and shoulders. Every night waking up with numb in my hands, and in the morning limping because of the discomfort. Regret not spending more time researching and testing more mattresses before buying this one. Consultant in a store, shown and describe only a couple of options, and we chose this one. Turned out to be a big mistake.

The product itself is decent quality, the material feels durable and the springs evenly supported, and good value for the price. Even though I expected it to be slightly firmer and the foam feels slightly too soft which is down to preference. In my day to day I notice that it lacks edge support and sometimes can feel like sliding off the bed when sharing for two people. Unfortunately the delivery was over priced and slow and poorly communicated. I think if I could choose again I would choose something with less foam on top and with edge support built into it.

Mattress Review. Initially, I was uncertain about this mattress due to there being an aroma that lasted approximately 3 weeks. You could smell it when you entered the bedroom and most definitely when getting into bed. It smelt kind of like stale cigar smoke. Over the 3 weeks, it got fainter and fainter, with there being no smell at all now. The mattress itself is very comfortable. At first, it wasn't like all things you have to get used to it. It is very supportive and of good quality. I've not slept this well for a few years. So overall, a great mattress

Quite comfy, great value, mix of spring and memory foam - Ironically not one of the mattress that the dreams AI instore body scanner tech recommended but one of the comfiest beds I tried (very much personal preferences). Great value, in a toss up between this and a matress double the price but it's hard to justify the extra spend when this one is that comfy. Only challenge is that this new mattress at home is not as comfortable as the one in the shop, I would assume it just requires breaking in like a good pair of shoes.

This is a great choice if you are looking for a medium - firm mattress.This mattress strikes the perfect balance between comfort and support. It provides excellent pressure relief for back and hips, which has significantly improved my sleep quality. The firmness level is just right-not too hard, not too soft. Overall, this mattress has exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a supportive and comfortable sleep experience.

The sleepmatch advised we were medium to firm so we opted for this mattress. Unfortunately it just didn't suit me. I have ongoing hip pain which was made worse when we received our mattress. I persevered for 2 weeks after being advised to wait 30 days but couldn't wait any longer. We were able to swap to another mattress which was labelled medium and slightly more expensive which is so much better. It's so reassuring we had the 100 night guarantee

I know I needed a new mattress as mine was about 10 years old. I do suffer from joint pain/arthritis so with a limited budget I went into Dreams. I did the mattress test on their computerised setup so found what I needed. I tried a few in the shop but kept going back to the one I bought. Very happy with it, first night or two thought there wasn't too much difference with my old one but realised there was. I'm very happy with my new mattress!!

We both find this mattress very comfortable and a huge improvement from our last one. We feel it's very good value too and seems well made in the UK. We've been sleeping better since we got it and the layer of memory foam is nice and cushioning. We tried most of the mattresses in the Dreams shop and we thought this was the most comfortable, it was also recommended by the Dreams computer assessment in the store. I'm really glad we got it.

I have had this mattress for 3 weeks now. I am just beginning to become comfortable with it, as is the case for most new mattresses. I love that it is light enough for me to turn without assistance and the handles are a big help with turning. The mattress appears to be be slightly smaller in length and breadth in comparison to my last one but this is a bonus as it allows me to tuck my duvet cover easily inside the bed frame.

Really helpful staff, discussed, requirements & price range (more importantly weren't pressurised into anything outside of our requirements) After trying a number of mattresses (including sale items) we chose a Dream Team Fowey 1000 Pocket Memory Mattress & were reminded of their free trial period. Been thoroughly pleased with our purchase & the service given compares favorably with that of our local branch of Dreams

I found the Fowey mattress online, and went into store to try it, amongst a few others that had been recommended to us. I think the combination of pocket springs and memory foam was what sold us - it feels firm but not solid, springy but not completely bouncy. It's been a great fit for us, just what we wanted for the price point! Delivery was excellent - well communicated, and the delivery drivers were more than helpful!

Amazing quality value mattress, we bought on-line taking a chance having not seen the mattress in store, we purchased a small-double for our guest bedroom and it's perfect, Definitely more medium/firm and super comfortable. Easy to turn with the incorporated handles. We are absolutely delighted with the purchase and so impressed by the price, we've bought mattresses x3 the price and honestly cannot tell the difference.

The in store experience was great. Gary at Ashford store was very helpful, and so were the other staff. Unfortunately the mattress itself isn't giving me the support I need so my lower back is still aching. I'm going to wait the 30 days and then exchange it for something orthopedic. The mattress is generally very comfortable and very well made though, if you need a medium to firm mattress don't hesitate to buy it.

This mattress is so comfortable. It is supportive yet soft. I really look forward to getting into bed every night knowing I'm going to have the best sleep. I can't believe how long it took me to get a new mattress, I was so used to my old one but I realised that it was over 17 years old and sunk in the middle (oh the shame) and wondered why I wasn't sleeping so well! Best decision I made this year.

It was easy to find the right bed for me, and the things that I had not thought of that I was reminded me of whilst ordering was very helpful. I could include discounted bundles, tweak them and add more all in one order with ease.

My partner and I bought this mattress together a couple months ago and it has been an excellent product. The memory foam layer on the top is brilliant, we looked at the fully memory foam but they just weren't for us so this was ideal. Packaging and delivery was brilliant too, came in a huge thick plastic sheet which we have used to store old duvet and mattress toppers in the loft!

Mad at myself for not updating my mattress sooner. Every ache and pain has gone... My last mattress, being extremely soft, did me no favours (other than feel extremely squishy and soft) I think having the medium with the firm is giving me the best of both worlds. My sleep is comfortable and uninterrupted and it's so nice not to wake up and dread moving. Best purchase and investment!

Surprisingly comfortable, I wanted a spare bed/mattress that would cater for my work pattern, it is almost as good as my very comfy main bed, I sleep for at least a week in row each month as not to bother my pattern when I work on call, so I was very surprised when I woke up feeling rest and had slept well. I can really recommend this mattress, for the price it is very good quality.

Had been suffering with severe lower back pain for weeks and eventually put it down to our old hybrid mattress that needed replacing. Went in store and had a go on the Sleepology machine and it recommended this firmness of mattress and it's changed everything for us. Went for a speaking size and now my back has vastly improved. Very impressed with the comfort and quality.

All round a good solid mattress especially for the price , for a 1000 pocket springs it packs a good punch feels more like a 3000 spring mattress , absolute bargain. However one downfall i would say is that theirs not much of a medium feel I'd definitely say it's a firm even with the memory foam on top theirs not much give so if you love a firm mattress it's a go too !!

Really impressed with this mattress, it is both supportive and soft at the same time. The quality I would expect from Dreams as this is the 2nd mattress I have bought from them. I am on the fence as to whether i should have bought a pocket sprung mattress then a memory foam topper rather than both in 1 but so far really happy with my purchase and would recommend.

This mattress is an absolute game-changer, offering the perfect blend of luxurious comfort and firm, orthopedic support. After switching, I've experienced significantly less hip and shoulder pain. Its breathable design keeps me cool all night, and the edge-to-edge support is incredible-no more feeling like I'll fall out, and it's perfect for side sleepers.

Comfy mattress, took a week or so to get used to, as advised by Dreams. Bed is mega useful for its storage space. Hinges on the ottoman are stiff for the first few uses. I thought I was being too rough and that I might break the hinges, but it's just how it is when it's new. Tried out in store and ended up ordering online a few days later.

This mattress has the support needed on it lower traditional base with the bonus of an added extra of a softer top layer. This top layer provided a distinct improvement on my old mattress and I do think I get a better nights sleep. Plus I don't ache as much when I wake up! Due to my advanced age I need all the help I can get:)

I need to change a single mattress as it was only a cheap temporary job. I wanted to upgrade to something much finer. I saw this Dream team Fowey pocket memory mattress with a memory foam topper, it was also in the sale, So no brainer. This is a beautiful mattress to sleep on so very comfortable and I can highly recommend.

We bought our Fowey mattress for the spare bed and it has been waiting for visitors to come and try it out. Last week they came and slept on the mattress. When they left they told us they had slept very well; better than in their own bed. I don't think there is a better recommendation for a Dreams mattress than that!

This is the worst mattress I have ever purchased. I am a 28 year old woman and the pain I have in my back each morning is unbearable. I have spent £100 on a mattress topper and nothing has helped but because I have missed the 100-day deadline, Dreams will not help me exchange it. Disappointed doesn't cover it.

Excellent mattress that doesn't break the bank. Spent months trying to find a new mattress, ordered from many other places and they all got sent back but this mattress was perfect for us. Soft and springy but still firm and supportive, a perfect medium. And got it on sale with next day delivery, perfect.

I cannot rate this mattress high enough. It is perfect! The correct firmness with comfort. My aches and pains that I suffered with have disappeared and I have nothing but praise for the mattress and the service I received from staff and delivery drivers. I will definitely be buying from Dreams again.

It's super comfy and the delivery guys were lovely both times. (I had to have a replacement due to the first arriving dirty) They sorted out a replacement very quickly thankfully. First time buying a new mattress and the in store lady was very helpful and good at explaining options and the process to me.

I was a bit sceptical about purchasing a mattress with memory foam as I had a memory foam topper before and did not like it, but that was before Jacqueline at Dreams Wimbledon educated me about the different types available to suit my personal needs. And now, I absolutely love my mattress! Thank you!

Very comfy and supportive mattress. I got it on a good deal too so saved some money. Delivery was very efficient and they were communicative about time of arrival. I also paid extra for room delivery and recycling of my old mattress both services added extra peace of mind. Overall excellent service!

I have terrible sleep with this mattresses. Support is poor especially towards the edges. I can already feel the springs 5 months in. Unfortunately, i have gone over the 100 day guarantee to return. I have purchased much cheaper silentnight mattresses in the past which are far more supportive.

We had this for 3 weeks on an ottoman bed. Within that time there was sagging, dips etc! Both of us ended up with bad backs and now i have to go through the stress of gettjng it picked up and trying to choose a different one. For the price of the mattresses in Dreams i expected far better!

Great value and superb comfort. Bought as a replacement of our old mattress. Tried in store and really happy with the help and no pressure approach to selling. You need to try before you buy-it's worth that little bit extra. We are very happy with our purchase and would highly recommend.

My partner and I have been sleeping so much better with this new mattress! We visited in-store to see what firmness was best and decided on this mattress and I'm so glad we did. Very comfortable, firm and supportive. The handles on the sides made it easier to manoeuvre which was handy.

Went into shop to try out the mattresses I found this one to be most cost effective and best for money but on usage the buttons stick out when laying on the bed so have to get a mattresses topper as the buttons have plastic going though them instead of fabric which is uncomfortable

We upgraded to a king-size mattress from a double and couldn't be happier with this one we chose. Good value for money compared to some others and have slept so well every night since we got it. We both find it very comfy despite having slightly different mattress preferences.

Had a lovely visit to the store, a nice gentlemen helped us use the sleep match machine, explained the results and showed us mattresses that fit with our results. The mattress we chose is perfect as it's firm enough for my partner but still comfy enough for me!

This mattress is very comfy, however like with all new mattresses it takes a couple of sleeps to get used to. The memory foam with the spring sprockets is definitely the best type of mattress for me, gives you a good mixture between firm and soft.

Though my wife is happy with this it's too hard for me. I've added a mattress topper but it's still a little too firm for my personal choice - good mattress but for me personally if you are a side sleeper i think it needs to be softer.

It's a lovely mix of memory foam and spring. I find that with some memory foams, you get that squashed shape after a while, but not with this one. This is a perfect mix and super comfy. We got it on sale so added bonus!

Questions and answers about the Dream Team Fowey 1000 Pocket Memory Mattress

Common questions answered by our team first, then questions shoppers asked the retailer, with the retailer’s own answers.

Can I use an electric underblanket with this mattress?

Answer: Dreams says an electric underblanket is safe with its mattresses, though it can change the feel and soften the fillings over time, especially in memory foam. Always keep a sheet between the blanket and the mattress, because direct contact can overheat the fillings and void the warranty, and follow the blanket maker's guidelines.

The width is quoted as 135cm and 54" these are not equal dimensions. Which is it?

Answer: Dreams says its mattresses are made to a tolerance of plus or minus 2cm. A 135cm mattress is 53.1 inches, and Dreams rounds that up to 54 inches in its listing so the mattress fits a standard double frame.
