Why our sleep experts loved it
The value of a good night's rest cannot be overstated. When you wake up from a sound sleep, your body feels rejuvenated, your mind is sharp, and your mood uplifts. The cornerstone of such a restorative sleep? Your mattress. The Impressions 6000 Cool Blue Memory and Recon Foam Orthopaedic Mattress artfully blends comfort and support, setting the foundation for a sleep experience like no other. This British-made masterpiece, with its perfect mix of Recon and Memory foam, promises the kind of sleep you've been dreaming of.
How we tested
To give a first-hand, unadulterated review, I spent two weeks sleeping on the Impressions 6000 Cool Blue. I flipped and rotated the mattress every six weeks as prescribed for its maintenance. The mattress was allowed to bask in different room temperatures to test its adaptability. Additionally, I took special note of how it supported my body and its temperature-regulating capacities.
Design and features
The striking feature about the Impressions 6000 Cool Blue is its impeccable blend of 120mm of recon foam and 50mm of memory foam. This harmonious balance of firm and soft results in a medium firmness level, universally appreciated for both comfort and orthopaedic support. The mattress is encased in a high-quality Double Jersey quilted padding, adding another layer of comfort to it. Arriving vacuum packed, it's a breeze to install and move around. Each piece is made to National Bed Federation standards, presenting you with a product of peerless British quality.
Mattress comfort
While I found the mattress to be somewhat lacking in cooling technology, it offered a degree of nature's air conditioning that fell within the acceptable range. Achieving the ideal balance between firmness and plushness, the mattress promises superior comfort and support, keeping your spine aligned while you rest. Its medium firm tension works wonderfully for both back and side sleepers, offering reliable support and comfort.
Suitability
The Impressions 6000 Cool Blue mattress has been designed with an eye for versatility. Whether you're a side sleeper or a back sleeper, the medium firm tension accommodates perfectly. The mattress offers excellent comfort and support in equal measure. For side sleepers with an hourglass figure, a slightly softer tension might be better, but this mattress still offers great comfort and support.
