Why our sleep experts loved it

We recently had an opportunity to take a closer look at the Marcello Ortho Mattress, the firmer variant of this particular model and one that left us very impressed at the fantastic price point and good quality support layer. We've got a lot to cover with the comfort variant on offer here so let's dive in.

First, this is a new product sold exclusively through the Bensons for Beds website and it's chain of stores. Since it is so new it is too soon to find any long standing reviews for this product however, we've seen similar specification products from the retailer perform exceptionally well in the past and have no doubt that streak will continue moving forwards. Let's look at the specifics.

The support layer features generous helpings of pocket springs, in this case an impressive 1000 of them all properly zoned to give full body contouring and edge support. As mentioned in many other reviews, this support layer is one of the best you can get, outperforming open coil and reflex foam equivalents and offering great longevity albeit at a slightly higher price (typically mid-high). What makes this particular mattress impressive is that it actually drops into the lower quadrant on price while still retaining the mid-high feature set when it comes to the support on offer. In terms of tension, you get a all-round winner with the firm rating thanks to it's improved back support that makes it a winner for those that are primarily back or stomach sleepers. Side sleepers should take a look at the Marcello Ortho Comfort model which features a medium tension which will better accommodate side sleepers.

Onto the comfort layer and you have more reasons to celebrate as this particular model comes with a deep layer of  eco-fibre filling which is a low-cost material (hence the fantastic price point), that is both soft and breathable resulting in a great and long lasting comfort layer that won't be too hot, nor too cold ensuring a good REM cycle which will have you sleeping deeper and for longer.

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.

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.

This mattress is very comfortable. It was exactly what I was looking for. It was delivered on time and by friendly staff. I will definitely recommend this mattress to those that prefer medium-firm. I found out about this mattress in the Ruislip shop where I was attended by Raj, a very friendly staff member, that helped me to make a decision on what mattress what the most suitable for my needs. Overall, this was a very easy straight forward purchase and I will buy again from Bensons in the future.

Hello, the mattress we did purchase is excellent. But, we did not purchase a "Super King" mattress. I would suggest that when you write to customers you at least get the product they have purchased correct.
