Great goldilocks tension should suit most people.

800 pocket springs are far more favourable than open coil counterparts but may not offer full-body contouring seen in higher spring count pocket spring variants.

Why our sleep experts loved it

The Mattressonline Horizon Odyssey 800 is the only mattress you'll need. It has a 14.5cm pocket-spring core and two layers of foam, making it the perfect combination of comfort and support. Combine these features with an additional 2cm of memory foam toward the top of the product in the comfort layer and you've got yourself a fantastic little trio combination that will delight customers.

The new Horizon Odyssey is almost identical to previous iterations but with a few key differences. Namely, this product, despite being slightly thinner and lighter, does seem to have a better pocket spring support that reacts to each body movement well with sufficient contouring

The cover is soft and durable but like most traditional mattresses that feature pocket springs, isn’t removable for washing meaning a protector is recommended to keep things hygienic and long lasting.

You can finally get the best of both worlds with this medium tension mattress that still has the added softness you crave. With a goldilocks tension that is soft to the touch and has enough sinkage to suit side sleepers, there's not too much to worry in choosing this type of firmness as this level of tension is regularly recommended as a "one side fits all".

What’s it like to lie on?

This mattress is designed to provide you with maximum spinal support. It doesn't matter if you sleep on your back, stomach, or side; this mattress will provide the comfort and support that your body needs. You'll wake up feeling refreshed, energized, and ready for the day ahead of you. 

When it comes to a mattress, you want a balance of comfort and stability. This bed does a good job of providing both. It has plenty of support to ensure it won't sag in the middle and is enough to not be too bouncy for those who need a more stable surface. It also does a good job of absorbing movement. So, if you have pets or kids or just find your partner tosses and turns a lot, this is the bed for you.

Suitability

*Assuming average weight, suitability will vary dependant on body type, use the quiz above for a more tailored guide.
  • 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.

I know very well that it's too early to rate a mattress after only one month of use, but I couldn't help it, because it's just amazing. At first I thought it'd be better more firmy, but no it's just perfect. Cheesy downside: Makes it even harder to leave bed on a cold, dark December morning.

My son says it is extremely comfortable - he has sensory issues as part of ASD and cant tolerate a spring mattress - although it would be a bit too soft for me as I prefer a very firm mattress

Looks really good. The zip off cover has been well thought out and is multi-layered giving the foam internals good protection from spillage staining. We love it.....and so do the dogs!

No more aching bones in the morning. Really comfortable. Not the best thing I've ever slept on, but not far off. Extremely light too, easy for making the bed.

Took a couple of weeks (not instant like some reviews imply) but improved both our neck/back discomfort. Proved our old mattress had had its day.
