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 may be suitable for 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. The tension is known as the goldilocks firmness thanks to its mass suitability meaning that if you are not too heavy or light, on average you will find success with this type of tension.
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. These comfort layers work together to create what the retailer and manufacturer reference as a "complete comfort stack" that helps to keep the body comfortable and supported throughout the night. It's not a combination we have seen before, but it's one that could work particularly well for providing an extra-deep unique 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. This helps to prevent discomfort and pain, and can contribute to a deeper, more restful sleep. 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.
In addition to its comfort and support layers, the Sealy PostureLux Forbes Mattress also features some advanced technology that helps to promote sleep health. For example, it has SilverFresh™ technology, which prevents the build-up of bacteria, and it has been certified by Allergy UK for its ProShield® technology, which helps to keep allergens at bay. These features can help to create a clean, healthy sleep environment that is more conducive to a good night's rest.
What's more, the Sealy PostureLux Forbes Mattress is handmade in the UK and comes with a 40-Night Sleep Guarantee, which allows customers to try out the mattress and see if it is a good fit for them. It also comes with a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee, which gives customers peace of mind and assurance in the quality of the product. The combination of these two benefits makes it one of the better choices on the market today as you have the reassurance that the product will stand the test of time.

Final Thoughts
Overall, the Sealy PostureLux Forbes Mattress is a well-made, high-quality product that is worth considering if you are in the market for a new mattress. It offers a combination of comfort, support, and technology that promotes sleep health, 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. Those who are of a lighter BMI who sleep dedicated on their side, could consider a softer tension than this one, however, the medium does do a fairly good job that should prove suitable.

Reasons to Buy
A lot of new Sealy tech is included in this mattress, from the SilverFresh to the Core Support spring system. We expect these technologies to begin making their way down through the rest of the range over the next year or so.
Established retailer with a reasonable 5 year guarantee to help ensure consumer confidence.
Latex is one of the more preferable comfort layers thanks to its great breathability, making for the perfect all-season mattress.
Reasons to Avoid
Sealy have relaunched in the UK, pulling al previous products in their lineup and reinventing themselves back at the top with some ultra-premium mattresses. Unfortunately this comes at a price point that may well alienate most people looking for a mattress that has the specific benefits listed. For those that can afford it though, the PostureLux really is a fantastic choice for mixed combination sleeping all year round.
