What our reviewers found

Pros

A lot of new Sealy tech is included in this mattress, from the SilverFresh cover to the PostureTech Core Support Plus™ springs.

A five-year guarantee and the Dreams comfort guarantee behind it.

A latex comfort layer, which sleeps cooler and bouncier than memory foam.

Cons

Sealy have relaunched in the UK, pulling all previous products in their lineup and reinventing themselves back at the top with some ultra-premium mattresses. Unfortunately this comes at a price that will put most people off. For those that can afford it though, the PostureLux really is a fantastic choice for mixed combination sleeping all year round.

The Sealy PostureLux Forbes Mattress is a high-quality sleep solution that has been designed to provide comfort and support to people who want a better night's sleep. It features a medium comfort grade, which means that it offers a balance of softness and firmness that suits a wide range of people. When it comes to suitability, we generally recommend medium tension mattresses for combination sleepers who sleep on their back, side or stomach. It's a sensible grade for anyone of average weight, a step softer than the medium-firm I'd start most people on.

The comfort layer of the Sealy PostureLux Forbes Mattress is made up of a latex layer, which provides a sumptuous, comfortable feel. This layer is supported by a double layer of medium premium foam, which helps to alleviate pressure points and improve the overall sleep experience. Sealy calls the two together a "complete comfort stack", and latex over a double layer of foam gives you an extra-deep comfort layer.

The support layer of the Sealy PostureLux Forbes Mattress is where the real magic happens. It features Sealy's exclusive PostureTech Core Support Plus™ spring system, which is designed to provide exceptional support and keep the spine in proper alignment. We see this support layer in a lot of the new Sealy lineup from 2022 onwards whereby Sealy have refreshed the entire range with mid to high range products with better support. The support layer itself works particularly well, offering enhanced posture while still being soft enough for medium sleepers regardless of how they sleep.

Sealy PostureLux Forbes Combination Mattress

Alongside the comfort and support layers, the cover is woven with Sealy's SilverFresh™ treatment, and Sealy's ProShield® treatment carries an Allergy UK certification, which is a named scheme rather than a word on a label. Neither is a reason to buy on its own.

The Sealy PostureLux Forbes Mattress is handmade in the UK and comes with the 100-Night Comfort Guarantee, so you can try it at home and change it if it's wrong for you. It also comes with a five-year manufacturer's guarantee. Read the sag clause in that guarantee before you lean on it; most only pay out past a deep dip and never for softening.

About The Brand

Sealy is a major manufacturer of mattresses and other sleep products. It was founded in 1881 in Sealy, Texas and is now headquartered in Trinity, North Carolina. Sealy is known for its commitment to quality and innovation in the sleep industry, and has a long history of producing high-quality mattresses that are designed to provide comfort and support to help people get a better night's sleep. Sealy has a wide range of products available, including innerspring, memory foam, and hybrid mattresses, as well as pillows, bedding, and other sleep accessories. The company has a global presence, with products available in more than 100 countries around the world.

Final Thoughts

I like the Sealy PostureLux Forbes Mattress. It offers a combination of comfort, support and a latex top, and it is suitable for people who prefer a medium level of firmness and want a mattress that will alleviate pressure points and keep their spine aligned. Those with more specific needs, along with those who require additional back and neck support, should instead consider a firmer variant in the range. Lighter side sleepers will find the medium a notch firm and are better on a softer tension.

Suitability

  • Back Sleepers 4/5
  • 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 4.5/5
  • 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 3.5/5
  • 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 4/5
  • Mattresses that feature breathable materials help promote airflow and keep you cool making for a more hygienic night's sleep.
  • Turning on mattress 4.5/5
  • 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 3.5/5
  • 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 4.5/5
  • 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 5/5
  • 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 4.5/5
  • This is based on community driven customer reviews tied to product reviews and grouped together at a brand level to produce a score.

Compared to our previous matters, a rolled up one from an online store, we've gone from sleeping on a bed which 'does the job' to now looking forward to bedtime. The quality of our sleep has improved ten-fold and I no longer wake up with sore shoulders or hips. My husband and I are both side-sleepers and have really benefited the comfort. Even our cat likes the bed. There's only one complaint I have, and that's not wanting to leave the bed every morning. Waking up and simply lying there feels so great and I never want to leave!

I initially popped in to a Dreams store and used the sleep machine to be matched to a few mattresses. There were a number of mattresses that I then tried and managed to narrow it down to two Sealy ones. I chose this one as it felt a little softer, and therefore comfier, than the other one. I have to say that the mattress I received feels a bit firmer than I remember it being in store. However, it is very supportive and comfortable and I am really pleased with the purchase.

We wanted to replace an aged mattress. However, we have specific needs and were unable to visit a store. Having previously been a satisfied Dreams customer, telesales was our first call. The understanding of our circumstances and consequent help and advice was amazing. In consequence, we bought a Sealy Forbes mattress. To date we have not been disappointed and our sleeping comfort has improved immensely. Thank you to everyone.

The mattress is comfy and supportive but I am finding it very hot to sleep on. Our bedding and duvet hasn't changed just the mattress. It's also very deep so you will need extra deep sheets. The grey bottom edge of the mattress shows through the side of white bottom sheets which is a shame. We don't roll together in the middle so from that aspect the mattress is good.

The shop experience was great, staff were very helpful, we secretly liked the sleep machine, can we have another go please :-) Ordering and delivery was quick and easy. The mattress seems well made so far and is very comfortable, we are both sleeping better, no aches and pains in the morning like with our last mattress, just make sure you have deep sheets to fit.

Slept like a log for the first time in ages, from the first night following the delivery of my new mattress. Unfortunately, aches and pains from ageing have slowly crept up on me and I hadn't realised quite how bad my very old, original mattress was!! Good support but also very comfortable. Highly recommended.

Great mattress so far, very comfy and good service from Dreams. Remains to be seen on how well it weathers over time. We were set on getting a Sealy after trying many brands and even returning another mattress. Would absolutely recommend Dreams and Sealy so far.

Seems like a good quality mattress. Was hoping it would help me get more comfortable with my back aches. Seems quite firm. Not really noticed much difference and it was a lot of money so debating on whether to keep it or change under the 100 day exchange.

Unfortunately , we purchased a SEALY FORBES , mattress and within the first 2/3 days ,knew it were faulty , springs noisy , bed 'growling' when ya turned , videoed it , and complained , and the staff agreed....So another Sealy Forbes ordered ,and within 3 weeks arrived and Yes, that too were faulty , Dreams sent out an Homeserve ' engineer to verify the faults and he too in his report , deemed it faulty .- So now trying Sleepeezee...fingers crossed.

As much movement as a waterbed, this mattress makes me feel sick and gives very little support. I wish we had got a pocket spring mattress, but we're persuaded to get this one by the price and the staff. After a year of hoping it would settle or we would get used to it, we both have bad backs and I am tired and dizzy every morning. I wish we could exchange for a discount off the one we actually liked.

It has been about 20 days since I bought this mattress. It took a couple of weeks for my body to adjust to it, but it's comfortable and supportive. It is very a thick mattress (about 28cm), I'm so high up now. I am pleased with it, but I'm still unsure if it's worth such a high price.

Matteress was on sale and good value . It is a good quality and comfortable but unfortunately i found it too soft for my liking. So exchanging for something firmer. Also it is quite heavy for rotation and deep, so climbing onto it ,but think thats same for most mattresses.

We had to do a comfort exchange on this mattress. Although it was comfortable the design meant that every time either of us moved, the entire mattress bounced like a trampoline. We just kept each other awake all night. Dreams were very good with the exchange though

Questions and answers about the Sealy PostureLux Forbes Combination Mattress

Common questions answered by our team first, then questions shoppers asked the retailer, with the retailer’s own answers.

Image of the post author
Common question
How does this mattress adapt to individual shapes?
Answer: This mattress comes with a unique spring system called PostureTech Core Support Plus which is exclusively available with this product. The spring has 6 turns, each designed to adjust and conform to your individual shape giving you a much deeper level of support.
Image of the post author
Common question
What does the SilverFresh technology do exactly?
Answer: The SilverFresh technology presents a unique feature woven into the fabric of this mattress. Its aim is to halt the multiplication of bacteria on the mattress surface, thus promoting a healthier sleep environment.
Image of the post author
Common question
What does 'medium comfort grade' mean?
Answer: The term 'medium comfort grade' refers to the firmness level of this mattress. It's designed to meet the needs of a wide range of sleepers, it can provide a good balance of both support and comfort.
Image of the post author
Common question
Is this mattress suitable for people with allergies?
Answer: Yes, this mattress can be suitable for people with allergies. It uses ProShield technology that is designed to keep allergens at bay and has approval from Allergy UK.
Image of the post author
Angieboob
Does this sag after a year+ like ours has
Answer: All mattresses will settle, this is the normal expected behaviour of the mattress.Most people tend to sleep in the same position on their mattress night after night. It is therefore natural for body impressions (sometimes referred to as settlement) to form in your mattress. The comfort fillings will settle in the area where you sleep, which can leave a ridge down the centre of the mattress. This can be more noticeable if you have a larger mattress or a pillow top mattress, but it does not affect the comfort or support provided by the mattress.To manage this, regular rotating is essential to make sure the pressure is spread as evenly as possible across the mattress in its first few months of use.While a little settlement is no cause for concern, there are ways you can minimise any further compression:Allow your mattress to air out daily by leaving the bedding pulled back for a while after you get up. This encourages any moisture to disperse and allows the fillings and layers to rise back up.Make sure you follow the recommended rotate and/or turn instructions as labelled on your mattress.

EmLG
Hi, Please can you tell me what specification the springs are?
Answer: The PostureTech Core Support Plus springs are twice tempered for extra resiliency and durability. The spring has 6 turns, each one designed to conform to your individual shape to give you a deeper level of support. The spring technology is exclusive to Sealy, only available at Dreams.

Richard me
difference between forbds and kinder mattress
Answer: The Forbes is 32cm in depth, whereas the Kindra is 30cm. The Forbes also contains firm foam as well as medium foam, giving a slightly firmer feel to the mattress.
