Today we are back at it with another rolled mattress from the popular retailer Dreams.I am excited about this one as it has been on the market less than a week (at time of writing) and is already starting to rack up a few positive reviews from customers. For those curious on where this product sits in the Dreams list of products, it is designed to provide a budget-friendly option for those looking to improve their sleep at the lower price point end of the market. Excited? Let’s dive in.
The first thing to note about this mattress is that it is rolled for convenience, making it easier to get up the stairs and allows both yourself and Dreams to save on logistics costs which can be passed on to you in the form of a cheaper product. This is a great feature for those who have narrow staircases or prefer the freedom of being able to set their mattress up themselves.
Once you have unpacked and unrolled the mattress you will be greeted by a support layer in the base of the mattress, this one in particular using the more premium pocket springs. Pocket springs are great for body contouring, which means that they will adjust to the shape of your body and provide support where it is needed most. This is particularly important for side and stomach sleepers who need extra support for their hips and shoulders. The individually wrapped pocket springs in this mattress are normally found in more premium and much higher priced products from the retailer, so it's a bit of a surprise to find them in a product this cheap.
Another great feature of this mattress is the medium comfort grade. This allows for maximum suitability for a wide range of sleepers, including back, side, and stomach sleepers. Medium tension is perfect for people who want a balance of support and comfort which is not too firm nor too soft, making it just right for most people. You cannot really go too wrong with this firmness and it also makes for an ideal guest room as most people will find comfort to some degree.
Onto the comfort layer of this mattress and you are getting luxurious layers of deep memory fibre in the comfort layer that will provide decent enough coverage while also protecting your spine from the springs underneath. It’s not the best comfort layer we have come across but again, for the price, it ticks many boxes that we weren’t expecting. Combining this with the soft touch knitted cover that is breathable and good for all-season temperature control also adds to the overall comfort of the mattress and will ensure you don’t get too hot or too cold while you sleep.
The fact that this mattress is made in the UK and comes with a 40-night sleep guarantee and 5-year guarantee adds to the overall confidence you should find in the product, particularly as most of the current Dreams lineup is still sporting an older and less useful 1-year guarantee. The result of the trial and guarantee however both ensure that you are getting a quality product that has been made to the highest standards.
In conclusion, the Dreams Walker Rolled Mattress is a great budget-friendly option for those looking to improve their sleep. The convenience of the rolled design, the use of pocket springs for body contouring, and the medium comfort grade make it suitable for a wide range of sleepers. The luxurious layers of deep memory fibre and the breathable cover also add to the overall comfort of the mattress and with a 40-night sleep guarantee and a 5-year guarantee, this mattress really does represent great value for money.
