The Millbrook Luxury 1400 Pocket Mattress has been specifically designed to provide orthopaedic support and comfort. A unique blend of pocket springs, wool, cotton and natural latex provides the perfect comfort level.

This luxurious pocket sprung mattress maintains a firm edge and orthopaedic support throughout. It features reinforced mattress edge for extra durability and is made with pocket springs support rather than the cheaper traditional spring.

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.

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.

The mattress is really comfortable for side sleepers and if you prefer sleeping in "unhealthy" positions, this mattress won't "punish" you for it (i.e., my other mattress is quite a "hard" one and if I don't have the right posture in bed it makes the tip of my "tail" hurt - i.e., the coccigean bone). While this is definitely a firm mattress, it does have some bounce and reasonable cushioning, so it's slightly on the medium side of firm. Beautiful finishes, double sided, four handles, reasonable thickness (the fitted sheets actually fit it)... I am really pleased with this mattress overall and it does beautifully for the guest bedroom (where not everyone wants the very hard surface that I usually prefer for every night sleeping)...

Very Happy with Millbrook Wool Ortho 1000 Pocket Mattress (2nd purchase for another bed, due to first - Millbrook Wool Luxury 1000 Pocket Mattress = same but without the edging 'beading' being still comfy after a year)- nicely firm and supportive without being hard, no strong smell like some new mattresses can have, good use of recycled wool filling and the 'beading' round the edge helps it keep its shape well.The mattress has handles making it easier to turn in accordance with the instructions to maintain shape.Would definitely buy again.

It is firm and supports my hipp but not so firm that I have pain when getting up in the morning. I cannot tell how happy I am. I had a memory foam mattress before (casper matress) and that ruined my back more than it already was. I know can turn around in bed without pain and do not habe the stiffness in the morning. I just have this matress fir a month now but it was love at first night. I hope it will not be worn out quickly, time will tell.

Desperately needed to change my mattress due to severe back issues, as the mattress was no longer keeping the spine aligned and would wake up in agony. chose this mattress because of reviews left by others with similar issues.* I was not disappointed, after first night , I woke and got up with relative ease, and little pain.Yippee!! and now 4wks later I feel a big difference. bought in the sale, this mattress is excellent value.!!

Fast delivery, it looks and feels like a pocket sprung mattress. Not too firm or too soft. The edges seem to hold up if you sit on them however I've only had it for a month do far so I don't know if this will stand the test of time. It is comfortable,clean and Good value for money for the materials. I didn't want a memory foam mattress or one with a topper so you can't flip it and this one fitted all the criteria

Bought for 20 year old son as a replacement mattress; this offers good firm support and he says it is comfortable. It is early days so time will tell on how well it lasts; I hope the additional side wall support will make it more durable than the previous (cheaper) mattress we'd had for him. Bought on sale so good VFM, would be pricey full price.

Very well made mattress although in the online description it says 'Complete with a beautifully designed cotton cover' but the label on the mattress clearly states 100% viscose which I found a little confusing.Some people complain about the smell but I didn't mind at all as reminds me of the countryside where I live and it soon wears off.

The appearance is lovely - looks almost too beautifully made to be covered up!!I opted for a firm mattress after reading the many reviews as my preference was for a medium. Although it did take a few nights to get used to and I am using a mattress topper ,I have no regrets! Lovely, comfy and supportive. Thankyou.

The mattress is environmentally friendly which is important to me. It is well made and a good thickness. It is comfortable although it is not as firm as I would have expected for an orthopedic firmness, therefore my score is a little lower because of this, otherwise it would have been higher.

I was previously sleeping on a memory foam mattress which made me very hot (and not in a good way). I also had problems because I am a large lady and couldn' t move across the bed. Now my life has changed - I no longer have disturbed sleep because I am so relaxed and comfortable.

This is a very comfortable mattress, that is medium-firm rather than hard-firm. It is exactly what a mattress should be really?you dont notice its there, but you appreciate a good nights sleep. Its pleasing to know that it is made of natural materials. We highly recommend it.

Really light so easy to turn over, especially with so many handles.Really comfortable, I used to buy really firm mattresses and I was getting pins and needles (but I put that down to old sports injuries) but I sleep like a log now with no aches or pins and needles.
