Why our sleep experts loved it

Discover the joys of excellent sleep comfort and support with the Flaxby Masters Guild 16150 Pocket Sprung Mattress. In our pursuit of the finest night's sleep, we spare no resource or technology. We look into the intricacies of spring construction, layer closely nuanced natural fillings, and direct it all towards uncompromised comfort and support. The Masters Guild 16150 is a perfect manifestation of this pursuit, culminating in a mattress that is strong on balancing firmness and plushness.

How we tested

Our testing routine for the Flaxby Masters Guild 16150 Pocket Sprung Mattress was a mix of real world usage and controlled assessments. We undertook a sleep trial extending over several weeks, allowing for a thorough experience of the mattress in varying conditions, from cooler winter nights to the warmer summer ones. Compiling anecdotal evidence from real customers was also a crucial part of our testing process.

Design and features

The Masters Guild 16150 stands out in several ways. Its sizable spring count comprises of adaptive micro springs that confer exceptional responsiveness and support. The mattress has Cortec™ springs, a glue-free and 100% recyclable solution that cleverly addresses comfort and eco-consciousness together. Four rows of sturdy side-stitching enhance the durability while guaranteeing impressive edge support. At the heart of the mattress lays an array of natural fillings; British wool, mohair, silk, and cashmere, working together to offer a comfortable sleeping temperature whatever the season.

With a selection of medium or firm comfort grade, the Masters Guild 16150 allows you to choose the perfect hardness for your sleeping style. Plus, with the 100-night Comfort Guarantee, you can have peace of mind that it's the right fit for you. The mattress is handmade in the UK by Harrison Spinks, promising nothing short of premium craftsmanship. It's also double-sided, which means just by turning and rotating it regularly you can double the lifespan and keep it feeling fresh.

Mattress Comfort

“Impressively deep,” and “incredibly comfortable”, that's how customers have described their experiences with the Masters Guild 16150. The harmony between cashmere and silk fillings, combined with the targeted support of the responsive pocket springs, strikes a perfect balance between comfort and support. In particular, the medium tension works excellently for both back and side sleepers. While it allows adequate contouring for back sleepers, it's particularly beneficial for side sleepers who need a mattress that gracefully cradles their pressure points.

Suitability

Due to its balanced medium firmness, the Masters Guild 16150 is suitable for almost everyone. It particularly excels for average-weight individuals, as the medium tension provides optimal support whether you're a back or side sleeper. Heavier back sleepers who need more firmness may want to consider a firm model.

What customers thought

Customers adore this mattress, and it's easy to see why. One key praise was the thick and padding-rich construction of the mattress, superlative for those who seek a substantial and plush sleeping surface. Customers also found the mattress incredibly comfortable and supportive, with its seasonal flipping feature particularly appreciated. The chemical-free wool filling earned plaudits for its elevated comfort and natural freshness. A few customers noted the relatively long delivery lead time, however, they also pointed out that the wait was well worth it for such a top-quality product.

The verdict

The Flaxby Masters Guild 16150 Pocket Sprung Mattress is a masterpiece in the crafting of sleep comfort. Its combination of luxurious materials, adaptive design, and eco-friendly elements make it a standout in the world of sleep solutions. The mattress goes the extra mile in offering you the ultimate sleeping experience while being gentle to our environment. In sum, it brings together the best of luxury, comfort, support and though a touch more premium, it justifies every penny with excellent performance.

Loving the 16150 pocket springs on this mattress, they provide unparalleled support throughout the night. The natural fillings of wool and cashmere really keep their promise of adjusting with the seasons, something I definitely appreciate. A very minor gripe with the height as it's quite thick, but otherwise it's top-notch

Never felt comfier than on the Flaxby Masters Guild 16150 mattress. The layering of the British wool and mohair coupled with the silk and cashmere is truly a comfort treasure. However, the mattress height can be a touch inconvenient for those who struggle with higher beds.

Suffered for a year with a well known mattress company and what a mistake I made , did my research and read reveiws and I decided on a Harrison Spinks mattress, short discussion with Ryan the manager at Bury St Edmunds who was very knowledgeable showing me images on his phone how the process of making the mattress was done and I was left in no doubt that I was making the right decision. Its now 4 weeks since I have had the mattress and I sleep like a baby

"The Flaxby 16150 is the best investment in my sleep. As a side sleeper, I love how it contours to my body, leaving me with zero back pain in the morning. Thanks to natural fillings like wool and cashmere, it is highly breathable and prevents overheating. With 16,000 springs, motion transfer is minimal, and the reinforced edges provide great support. A premium product well worth the price. Highly recommended!

We previously had a high spec mattress and decided to go one better with this routine replacement. It's amazing! We sink slightly until we're perfectly supported and when one of us moves in the night or gets up early, the other is not disturbed. I like to sleep on my back, side and even half face down and it's always comfortable. I have not once woke up with an aching back for the first time in a long time!

Lovely mattress. Replaced our old Flaxby similar mattress but this one can be turned over as well as round because it has the topper on the bottom as well! Makes the mattress extremely thick on the bed base, couldn't manage getting in and out if it were much higher! Very comfortable so far - only had it three weeks. Fingers crossed it's as good beyond the 100 night guarantee!

A luxurious sleep will be found in the comfort of this Flaxby mattress. Ive never slept so well in years, but our last mattress was fifteen years old! To me the mattress is a little to soft, but the wife loves it, so I guess well be sticking with it; happy wife, happy life an all that.

Lovely bed, not too soft, not too firm. Good support for both a light person and a heavy one! Only minor quibble would be that the edges are a bit soft / rounded, so if you sleep too near the edge it feels like you might roll off (though you won't!).

Quality at it's best. I've never had a good mattress before and this is very good. It's very heavy but once on the bed it stays put. It's soft but doesn't disturb your partner when you move.
