Why our sleep experts loved it

The Posturepedic-friendly Sealy Ortho Plus Gold Mattress is part of a new Ortho Plus range from Sealy and is designed specially for those who need orthopaedic products and services. What that means, is that this is not just another firm mattress, this is made to the tolerances necessary to be suitable for those who have orthopaedic needs.

Let us start by looking at the base layer of this mattress, it uses a PostureTech CS spring system that works with your weight and gives responsive and measured support that contours to your body and gives you necessary tension where you need it. It is not my favourite spring system, for that we look toward pocket spring options, however, it works well enough and provides long lasting support in a firm tension.

Onto the cover of the mattress and it is a more standard affair for the best part, a damask fabric is typical for the industry and works well to be both soft and durable. One thing that does stand out with the cover is that it features hand tufting. These tufts help secure the fillings in the mattress in a tight and compact manner and in turn make the mattress feel firmer through the comfort layer than you otherwise would. The result is a firm mattress, made firmer still through tufting, giving a orthopaedic style sleep that will provide relief to your back and neck provided you sleep on your back or stomach, for side sleepers we would perhaps recommend something with a medium tension.

Reviews are extremely positive with many commenting on the orthopaedic relief offered by the product with one commenter explaining that the spine problem they have is alleviated and the mattress offers a perfect means of relief. Other reviews suggest that the product is substantially deep and comfortable with a high performance to cost ratio.

Overall, a well priced mattress that ticks a lot of boxes for those that are looking for a firmer mattress with orthopaedic recognised support.

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

  • 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.
