The Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 Pocket Sprung Mattress offers firm support, particularly beneficial for back and some stomach sleepers.
Our customers rave about the significant reduction in back aches after slumbering on this premium product.
A harmonious blend of firmness and luxury is achieved with the combination of Cortec™ springs and a plush pillow top.
Incorporating natural fillings, it creates a desirable temperature-regulated sleep environment, catering to all seasons.
Highly appreciated by health-conscious customers, it is glue-free, keeping your nights free from unwanted chemicals.

Some customers reported that the firm tension of the Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 might not suit side sleepers, due to insufficient sinkage ability for the hip and shoulder area.
Others mentioned that they experienced discomfort or difficulty in getting restful sleep using this mattress because they possess an hourglass figure, which requires a softer tension.
Some reviewers were looking for a softer comfort grade mattress, as the Master's Guild 8450 offers only firm or very firm comfort grades.
The fact that the mattress is single-sided, requiring regular rotation from head to foot to prevent lumps and bumps, was viewed as a inconvenience by some customers.
A few buyers expressed concern about the density of the hemp blend filled pillow top, fearing it might compromise the softness over time.

Testing Team Takeaways

To test the Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 Pocket Sprung Mattress we have people from our testing team take a closer look at the mattress and form their own opinions. Below is their observations.

Embarking on a nighttime journey with the Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 Pocket Sprung Mattress was a revealing experience, particularly given my combination sleeping pattern. This mattress, with its firm comfort grade, seemed promising at first glance, tailored ideally for those who predominantly rest on their backs. However, as a lighter individual who fluctuates between back and side sleeping, the firmness presented some challenges. The mattress’s firm support was advantageous for maintaining alignment while sleeping on my back, offering consistent support throughout the night. However, the transition to side sleeping was less accommodating. The lack of adequate give in the mattress meant that my lighter body weight didn’t sink as comfortably into the mattress, leading to noticeable pressure points and slight discomfort around my shoulders and hips. While the quality of materials and construction — like the natural fillings and Cortec™ springs — are commendable for their breathability and sustainability, they didn’t quite meet the mark for side-sleeping comfort. The mattress's cooling properties from natural fillings like wool and cotton are beneficial, especially since I tend to sleep warm. However, my combination sleeping style required a more adaptable surface to meet the needs of different positions throughout the night. Thus, while the Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 is undeniably luxurious and well-crafted, it might better suit those who have a singular preference for back sleeping rather than a combination approach like mine.

Why our sleep experts loved it

The Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 Pocket Sprung Mattress promises a really comfortable sleep. Made with careful precision, this mattress aims to deliver plenty of dreamy nights with a proper luxury feel. The blend of comfort and modern tech has been designed to suit your unique contour, ensuring comfort, irrespective of your sleeping position. Now, let's get into the details and see what makes this mattress a worthy investment.

How we test

In assessing the mattress quality, we have conducted a rigorous in-store and in-person test which entails scrutiny of all the specifications carefully. While we have not conducted a trial at our personal home, we believe our extensive testing methodology, in the store, has effectively gauged the mattress's comfort level, design, and features. This helps us provide an impartial yet detailed review of the mattress.

Design and features

The Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 mattress is a masterpiece hobnobbed with innovation and craftsmanship. It features layers of micro springs adroitly designed to adapt to your unique shape. This attribute guarantees individualized support catering to your comfort requirements. What sets this mattress apart is its clever use of natural fillings - British wool, hemp, flax, and cotton - to regulate temperature. Analysis of these features revealed their effectiveness in ensuring cool summers and cozy winters to the sleepers.

The mattress also flaunts Cortec™ springs which are 100% recyclable and free from glue, therefore eliminating any harmful chemical repercussions. The mattress is traditionally tufted to secure the fillings in place, contributing to its longevity. With two rows of side stitching, the mattress guarantees enhanced durability.

Mattress comfort

Focusing on the comfort factor, the mattress is available in firm and very firm comfort grades. Layered with micro springs and natural fabrics, the pillow top creates a sumptuous yet supportive sleeping surface. The inclusion of DNAir springs, which exclusively targets the heaviest parts of the body, assures augmented support. In combination with the additional layers of adaptive pocket springs, the mattress guarantees easy movement and enhanced pressure relief during sleep.

Suitability

This firm mattress is recommended for back sleepers and certain stomach sleepers. It might not be suitable for side sleepers or individuals with hourglass figures due to potential discomfort and sparse sinkage. On the flip side, back sleepers who refrain from changing their posture while sleeping will find this firm mattress a perfect fit.

What customers thought

Based on customer feedback, the Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 pocket sprung orthopedic mattress is nothing short of an extravagance that offers firmness shoaled with opulence. Customers reported improved quality of sleep with reduced instances of back aches. The pillow top feature has been extensively praised for comfort, while the Cortec™ springs were appreciated for providing customized support. Feedback on the absence of chemicals and the year-round temperature regulation was also overwhelmingly positive.

The verdict

The Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 pocket sprung mattress stands out for its luxury feel and functionality. It's a product where every penny invested translates to superior comfort and a revitalizing sleep experience. The efforts taken by Harrison Spinks in crafting this handmade mattress with sustainable fillings that are temperature-regulating, breathable, and durable makes this mattress a must-have for those who want to invest in their sleep. Its environmental-friendliness and single-sided usage requiring only regular rotation combine convenience with conscious consumption, making it a solid choice for those who seek optimal quality, sustainability, and comfort.

After using Sleepmatch at Dreams, we were recommended a few matresses but standout was the Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 Pocket Sprung Mattress, and it has truly lived up to expectations. Comfort & Support The mattress offers exceptional support thanks to its 8450 pocket springs, which adapt individually to body contours. This creates a balanced feel firm enough for spinal alignment yet cushioned for pressure relief. Its ideal for those who want a supportive sleep without sacrificing comfort. Sleepmatch suggested this mattress based on our sleeping habits and body profile, and the recommendation was spot on. The personalised fit means less tossing and turning and noticeably better posture during sleep. made with natural fillings, the mattress feels luxurious and breathable. The attention to detail in stitching and finish reflects high-quality British craftsmanship. The natural fibres help regulate temperature, keeping the bed cool and comfortable throughout the night From the Sleepmatch process to delivery, the experience was seamless. The mattress has significantly improved sleep quality, making it worth the investment.

While our new mattress arrived with a few minor cosmetic blemishes, which was a little disheartening at first, the experience that followed has been nothing short of exceptional. I want to commend the Dreams customer service team for their understanding and prompt resolution. They handled the issue with professionalism and offered a partial refund, which truly showed they stand behind their products and value their customers. Now, for the mattress itself it is absolutely incredible! The comfort is on another level. Paired with the new pillow, I am out like a light and enjoying some of the best sleep I have had in years. Despite the initial hiccup, the quality of the product is undeniable and has completely transformed our nights. Because of the outstanding customer service and the sheer quality of the mattress, I can wholeheartedly recommend Dreams. They have certainly earned a loyal customer in me!

Waking up with chronic back and body aches every day was grinding me down. I was also constantly tired due to my old mattress having sunk in the middle causing a very poor nights sleep. Needing a new mattress, I went into a Dreams store just to take a look The staff were polite, professional, knowledgeable but above all - not pushy! Living in an old property presents problems accessing my bedroom and a solution was presented that works superbly - a zip link mattress meaning it could be installed with absolute ease. The mattress is heavenly to sleep on. No more aches and pains and a good nights sleep has been had every night since purchase. Throughly recommend the Dreams team and the wonderful Harrison Spinks mattress.

A carefully considered purchase due to the high ticket price, but absolutely worth it. I needed a firm mattress due to back problems, but didn't want a hard, unforgiving mattress either, especially as I am a side-sleeper and therefore need some moulding around the waist. This Harrison Spinks made mattress offers a second layer of springs and natural fibres on top, giving you the feel of softness, as well as excellent support. I have honestly not slept so well in years and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this mattress to anyone wanting the luxury and comfort this mattress affords!

comfortable but sagging in middle after a few weeks, inspected by dreams and its normal for matress to sag 3 inches and in middle.They call this settlement. I have therefore decided to change the matress under the 100 day swap scheme as its causing me to roll into middle of bed and its likely to sag more. I also suffer from lower back pain and this matress has not helped so changing it for tempur which was the other matress suggested by the Dreams machine i tried in store. Also because the matress is very heavy its not good for my back to keep turning it around .

Brought a new mattress and base after visiting Dreams several time trying to decide what mattress was best for us both , the chap that served us answered all questions and was a great help , so placed an order, a month later it was delivered and everything went fine , have slept on the new base and mattress for just over two weeks now and although very happy with the base and mattress we are not sleeping any better at all so feel rather disappointed after spending so much on a new bed and still not sleeping any better .

I absolutely love love love this mattress!!! I have sciatica and this mattress absolutely suits my needs! Im in love with my bed and prior to getting this one Id bought a so called orthopaedic mattress on mine which was no good for me having gone two dreams and tested out their mattresses as well as doing the Mattress test in store. I now have an ideal Mattress that suits my needs. I would highly recommend for anyone suffering with lower back pain or sciatica, well worth the investment.

Mattress has been replaced for a softer one today. Despite being recommended a firm mattress and this seeming comfy in store its too firm for us. Headaches, pressure point pains and stiffness from the first night which did improve to a degree, but after 40+ nights we are glad to see it go. Having said that it is a top quality mattress and no doubt would suit someone who likes a firm feel. Weve been reassessed on the Dreams sleep bed and now hopefully a medium mattress will be better.

We are three weeks in, from receiving our Flaxby's Guild Mattress and we are already seeing the benefit, of good sleep on a firm, comfortable and supportive mattress Using the Dreams Sleepmatch system we were given a variety of options to choose from, but we are so happy to have selected the Flaxby's Guild 8450 Pocket Sprung. Such quality, handmade using natural and sustainable products, by Harrison Spinks in Yorkshire. We highly recommend this premium product.

After a scientific led process and an excellent guiding hand from the sales person I picked the Flaxby Master Guild 8450 Pocket Sprung Mattress and it has proved to be an excellent choice. I prefer a firm mattress for health reasons but still want to enjoy the comfort of a bed that allows me to settle into its support. This mattress provides excellent orthopaedic support while having small pocket springs to provide comfort during your sleep. An excellent bed.

This mattress provides firmness and luxury in one, perfect for those who are looking for a more supportive nights sleep. The Pillow top provides the comfort as you drift off to sleep and the Cortec springs provide the support in the areas your body needs it most. The natural fillings are perfect for all year round and provide a temperature regulating sleep environment and glue free so no nasty chemicals.

Very pleased with this mattress although taking some getting used to as it is very high! Have purchased the double bed size but will have to purchase king-size bottom sheets to fit as the mattress is very deep. Very comfortable so far. Advice from the delivery guys - to turn mattress every couple of weeks. This will be quite a task as it is very heavy, but that will be down to the quality.

I tested many mattresses in a Dreams store "blind" as in not checking the prices before I did. This was the most comfortable mattress I tried. I was a bit shocked at the price when I got to the till - but in fairness I have had consistently good sleep on it and have been using it for over a week. Wish it was cheaper, but in hindsight I am happy to invest in good sleep.

Been sleeping on this mattress for 3 weeks so far and we love it. Seems cooler than our old hybrid foam one which is good, very comfy and seems like a great quality. Was heavy to move into the room and when rotating but so far that's the only downside. Glad we got this one rather than the cheaper options and mostly because it is made with natural materials.

this mattress is well made an you can tell the quality, comparing with our previous mattress it makes you really appreciate how much better it is. The one negative is that the mattress is super heavy when you need to rotate it, it's a 2 person job but that isn't possible in my situation but that being said it's super comfortable and worth the money!

This has been the best investment weve made - after our house. This mattress is expensive but worth the money and better than any memory foam mattress out there. We chose the extra firm with the attached topper. Its so comfortable we cant wait to go to bed. Ditch your foam mattress and get a proper traditionally hand-made sprung mattress.

Worth every penny & thousands more!! We replaced our 9 year old mattress with this one & its absolutely perfect for us. My husband likes an extra firm mattress & I prefer firm, so the assistant advised us we could have two different sides to match our preferences rather than one of us settling. Best nights sleep weve ever had

This mattress is excellent. I need a firm mattress due to my back issues, but still wanted the cosy soft feel when I get in to bed. It takes a while to soften up so the first couple of weeks were a little strange but now it has just what I needed. The option to have two different levels of firmness for couples is also brilliant.

We tried out the mattress on display in store which was as we wanted our own mattress. Firm on one side and extra firm on the other with the mattress topper. Our new mattress is exactly as we had hoped for and we are delighted with the product. The quality is excellent and it is extremely comfortable.Would recommend to anyone.

We went into Dreams ( Gloucester branch) to look for a new mattress to replace one we bought hurriedly for our new bed that arrived earlier than expected. We climbed onto the machine that tells you your ideal mattress and we bought one we both liked. We have had it several months now and it is still a dream to sleep on.

I cannot describe how amazing this bed is. It is so comfortable and well worth the money. We have no regrets. Made from great materials. It must be noted that it is very heavy and takes 2 to rotate but well worth it in my opinion. Well worth investing in a quality good night's sleep.

This mattress is super comfortable, its firm enough not to sink into it but has a layer of smaller springs on top covers on natural materials to give a cosy feeling with a stress free night. Big selling point for us was no man made foams here just natural materials.

This mattress is very deep and appears very well made. I find it fairly comfortable but still wake up with a bad back, although not as bad as with my previous soft one. The stuff inside the pillow top has shifted so there is a hollow where each of us lies.

Questions and Answers About The Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 Pocket Sprung Mattress

Prospective customers had the following questions about the product

Verified Buyer

Is this mattress recommended for side sleepers?

Answer: Given the natural firmness of this item, it may not be the ideal choice for side sleepers or individuals with hourglass figures. These particular sleepers typically require a support layer with more sinkage to comfortably accommodate their hips and shoulders. On the flip side, this product could be a fantastic option for back sleepers or those who mostly sleep on their stomach due to its increased firmness. Thanks, Rebecca

What is the benefit of the natural fillings in the mattress?

Answer: The use of natural fibres such as British wool, hemp, flax and cotton serves a dual purpose. Firstly, they help regulate your body temperature, ensuring a cool sleep in summer and warmth during winter. Secondly, not only are these natural fibres eco-friendly, but they also make for a more comfortable sleep surface.

does this matress sink in middle once slept on or does it hold its look

Answer: Most people tend to sleep in the same position on their mattress night after night. It is therefore natural for body impressions (sometimes referred to as settlement) to form in your mattress. The comfort fillings will settle in the area where you sleep, which can leave a ridge down the centre of the mattress. This can be more noticeable if you have a larger mattress or a pillow top mattress, but it does not affect the comfort or support provided by the mattress.To manage this, regular rotating is essential to make sure the pressure is spread as evenly as possible across the mattress in its first few months of use, and should therefore follow your mattresses care instructions.Many thanks,

What Makes The Flaxby Masters Guild 8450 Pocket Sprung Mattress Great?

We've expanded on the specifications of the product to better help you understand its benefits.

Not right for you? Exchange with our 100-Night Comfort Guarantee

With the provision of a 100-Night Comfort Guarantee, the apprehension of your investment failing to meet your comfort expectations is removed, allowing you the privilege of exchange during this tenure without undue fuss. This benefit promotes the establishment of a cushty relationship between you and your bedding, ensuring a trial period that invariably paves the way for essential sleep satisfaction.

Rest easy with a 5-year guarantee

A 5 year guarantee goes beyond the industry average and is a fairly good indicator of a well-performing product. After all, a poor product with a long guarantee would create a negative cash position for manufacturers. A 5 year guarantee is great when you consider the average mattress is replaced after 7 years meaning you get protection for most of the products lifespan.

Featuring glue-free, 100% recyclable Cortec™ springs

Innovation at its best, these glue-free, 100% recyclable Cortec™ springs depict high sustainability, ensuring that the environment is not compromised while you enjoy your restful sleep. Moreover, these springs offer enhanced support and better durability, a revolutionary stride in the mattress industry that can remarkably improve your sleep quality.

Traditionally tufted to keep fillings in place

Traditional tufting in this particular design ensures that the inner materials are securely fastened, minimising displacement over time and thereby promoting consistent comfort and longevity. Consequently, you will experience enhanced sleeping quality due to a more stable surface, paired with the potential for a longer-lasting investment.

Available in a firm or very firm comfort grade

With options of either a firm or very firm comfort grade, this specification enables tailored sleep experiences, catering to those who prefer a more supportive sleep surface. Such personalisation may lend to improved sleep quality by aligning the spine properly and preventing discomfort arising from overly soft or hard surfaces.

Single-sided: Rotate regularly

With a single-sided design, frequent rotations become necessary, ensuring even wear and extended durability. However, keep in mind that this setup may require a bit more effort from you as it does not offer the versatility of double-sided mattresses which can be flipped as well, potentially prolonging their lifespan.

Natural British wool, hemp, flax and cotton regulate your temperature

Materials like natural British wool, hemp, flax, and cotton effectively maintain an optimal sleep environment by balancing body temperature. These components are known for their natural breathability and moisture-wicking properties, ensuring a comfortable night's rest.

Two rows of side stitching for enhanced durability

A marked improvement in longevity and resistance to wear and tear is conveyed by the two rows of side stitching. Moreover, it gives an added refinement to the mattress's edges, ensuring enhanced support even when utilising the full sleeping surface.

Handmade in the UK by Harrison Spinks

Buy a bed made by the top mattress manufacturer in the UK. These mattresses are handmade in Yorkshire, using hand-tufted, hand-sewn natural fillings, which will provide you with the comfort and support you deserve.

Layers of micro springs adapt to your unique shape

Small springs adjust precisely to body contours, enhancing comfort and reducing pressure points. This feature supports spinal alignment for improved sleep quality.
