Why our sleep experts loved it
Today we are taking a closer look at the Elle Decoration Natural Wool 1000 Pocket Mattress, the ultimate solution for a comfortable and restful night's sleep on a modest budget. From Mattress Online, who are known for their expertise and commitment to providing top-of-the-line products, this mattress is designed to cater to the needs of a few different types of sleepers, from children to adults and back sleepers to combination sleepers. With its 60-night comfort trial, you can try out the mattress in the comfort of your own home and ensure it is the perfect fit for you.
As you lie down on the mattress, you'll be enveloped in the soft and cosy comfort of wool fillings. Wool is a natural material that is renowned for its temperature regulating properties, which means it will keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer, making it perfect for those who struggle with temperature regulation while sleeping. This layer is where most of the comfort in a product like this is derived and you’ll be pleased to know that the manufacturer has included deep layers, meaning you won’t feel the springs in the base layer as you sleep.
More about that base layer and this mattress also features a support system of 1000 pocket springs, which work independently to adjust to your unique shape and provide personalised support, ensuring that you wake up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Pocket springs are the natural choice at this price point, and indeed the price points above and beyond this one as they are generally regarded as the best on the market, beating open coil and reflex foam in most tests while also having better breathability and body contouring at the same time.
The mattress is designed with a firm edge support, pairing well with the pocket springs and prevents you from rolling off the bed while maximising the sleeping surface, giving you a comfortable and secure sleep that, since you utilise more of it, makes for a more durable and longer lasting product. The mattress also boasts a stylish and modern finish, with its dark grey quilted borders and a pop of purple from the handles, adding a touch of elegance to your bedroom decor. The styling doesn’t really matter to be honest, as it will be under a sheet the majority of its life, but it does indeed have more detailing and thoughtfulness to the styling all the same.
Onto the outside layer of the mattress and you get the same breathable polyester fabric cover found in the more premium models in the line-up. This cover allows air to flow through the natural fillings, keeping the mattress fresh and clean and working alongside the pocket springs also to ensure a hygienic nights sleep that will keep you at the right temperature throughout all the seasons.
When it comes to maintenance and upkeep, there’s little to worry about as the Elle Decoration Natural Wool 1000 Pocket Mattress is also designed with ease of maintenance in mind. It is single-sided, which means you don't have to flip it over, and it has four turning handles for easy rotation. Personally, I prefer the additional durability of a two-sided mattress that requires flipping, it’s a bit more of a pain for upkeep but would have been a nice feature to see included all the same. That said, the materials utilised within this product should last a fairly long time as they are all of the type of quality you would expect to see on a mid-high end model.
One thing that does stand out on this product more than others is its drive to be sustainable. The natural fillings which are kind to the environment at source are paired with a fully recyclable product at the end of its life, which means it won't end up having negative effects on the environment. This is something consumers are starting to become more savvy to and it looks like Elle Decoration is one of the first to recognise the importance of being able to recycle responsibly.
In conclusion, the Elle Decoration Natural Wool 1000 Pocket Mattress is the perfect combination of comfort, support and style for back and stomach sleepers, although side sleepers may find the tension to be a bit too firm. That said, since the comfort layers are as thick and luxurious as they are, it may well be that you can combination-sleep quite effectively meaning occasional side sleeping may be on the cards while still finding comfort.
If you're in the market for a new mattress, we don’t think you will be disappointed with this one. Its good quality components and fillings look fairly reliable to provide you with a comfortable and restful night's sleep every night, particularly those who require a firmer feel or have a heavier than average BMI. Don't wait any longer, give this mattress a try today and experience the difference it can make in your life.
