Harrison Spinks Cotterdale 13250 Pocket Pillow Top Mattress

In shortIf you want a softer pocket spring mattress that still feels supportive, I'd rate this highly. It's 100% recyclable, though the price puts it out of reach for many. Read the review

What our reviewers found

Pros

Luxurious mattress that will offer a degree of support despite its softer pocket spring layer.

Mattress is 100% recyclable so is good on the environment.

One of the best bed makers in the world.

Cons

Price point continues to limit accessibility to the upper quadrant in terms of bed buying.

The first thing you'll notice about this mattress is the added pillow top comfort layer. The second thing you'll notice is how it feels like you're sleeping on a cloud. Designed by historic and well-renowned bed experts Harrison Spinks, this mattress is designed to last, evident by the impressive 5 year guarantee.

The Harrison Spinks Cotterdale 13250 Pocket Pillow Top Mattress is so luxurious you'll think you're sleeping in a cloud. This mattress is hand-crafted in Yorkshire, England using the finest cashmere, silk, mohair and Yorkshire wool. You'll enjoy great support with 13250 pocket springs which are designed to distribute your body weight evenly for a blissful night's sleep.

The Cotterdale is also a no turn mattress, this doesn't mean that it shouldn't be rotated evenly throughout the seasons but that flipping is not required. The benefit of this is that mattresses, particularly ones with 13250 springs in them, tend to be on the heavy side and so rotation will be enough of a workout. 

One of the more common downsides of a no turn mattress is that since the comfort is only on one side, it is less durable over time, however, thanks to the extreme quality on offer, the materials used typically offset the additional durability found in dual sided mattresses.

Scored from the build: how this construction usually performs, compared with mattresses of a similar type and price.

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.

Ease of Use

  • Turning handles
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Mattresses typically need to be rotated frequently and having turning handles can be massively beneficial, particularly in larger sizes which can become fairly heavy.

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.
  • Long Standing Odour
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Certain materials inside different mattresses can produce a small odour. Typically this is short term rather than long standing but there are minor exceptions.

Brand Rating

  • Overall Brand Rating
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • This is based on community driven customer reviews tied to product reviews and grouped together at a brand level to produce a score.

Wonderful - like sleeping on a cloud with the integrated mattress topper. I have had to buy some 40 cm deep fitted organic cotton sheets as my old sheets were not deep enough. I also wanted a mattress that was entirely made of natural materials and this one fits that bill. It took a couple of weeks to get used to the feel of it but my husband and I love it now!

This particular mattress ended up being nothing special for the price I paid. Lesson learnt to try in store first and to read the small print on the free trial!
