Pros & Cons

Here we collect tests, guides and product reviews so that you can create a picture of what others think about the product. This analysis and review is based on my experience and a decade of industry insight.

Orthopedic support at a more realistic price point for many.

We really like the PostureTech Core Support spring system, its one of Sealys more popular spring systems that works really well in this combination. It's fairly low tech and lower in the range than others, but it performs well enough to not matter.

Cracking 5 year guarantee will give you protection for most of the lifespan of a typical mattress.

Sealy use a lot of clever marketing words to make it seem more impressive than it is. That isn't to say it isn't worth the money but don't buy into "power packs" and "smart fibers". Ultimately it's a firm mattress with a basic but suitable spring system that is paired with breathable white fiber fillings that are bouncy, deep and soft.

Why our sleep experts loved it

The Sealy Posturepedic Backcare Extra Firm Mattress is probably one of the better named in the Sealy range, making it pretty explicit the point of this mattress and whom the audience it may suit.

Predictably, this is an extra firm mattress and part of the posturepedic range, a range that focusses on firm mattresses with an aim to reduce tension and pain in the back and neck by offering contoured support that focuses on relieving muscle hotspots across your body.

An exclusive mattress, this is unlikely to be found among other retailers and is the firmest mattress from Sealy to date.

Orthopaedic care is an ongoing concern for many looking for a firmer feel mattress and this particular product delivers, allowing you to enjoy an extra firm mattress with enhanced support for your back, helping to ensure correct spinal alignment and ensuring that you get a fantastic nights sleep for many years to come.

Hand tufting and rod edge support mean that you are able to get a firm feel across the entire space of the mattress. That means reduced roll-off and no roll-together, allowing you to stick to your space and utilise it how you see fit without impairing partners and without having to stick to a specific spot that is away from the mattress edge.

With exceptional quality from a best selling brand, this one is going to be hard to beat. I've personally tried many of the Posturepedic range and find them all to offer fantastic back support while still offering enough comfort to enjoy sleep effectively.

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.

Mattress delivered safely on 27th November so have only used it for 5 weeks. Early days! I have used Sealy mattresses for a number of years and am still a devotee! However, after years of choosing 'medium' comfort mattresses which served me well at the time, my advancing years (over 80) and past 2 years as a full-time carer for a relative unable to fend for themselves, have taken their toll. I felt I needed a more supportive mattress so eventually chose the Ortho Plus Mattress which was marked as 'firm'. (I was sinking into my last mattress after 2 years). I'm still adjusting to this new mattress but do feel it offers more support so, together with a new pillow, I'm quietly optimistic. Of course its a deeper mattress than the last one and so more weighty but at the moment I can still turn it.

Lovely thick mattress, nice and firm but still comfortable. Good support so far but time will tell. My husband is a heavy man so mattresses tend to wear quickly. It is the first time we have bought a really expensive mattress so fingers crossed. Buying this in the sale was the only way we could afford such a good quality mattress. Both of us suffer badly with bad backs and this mattress has helped greatly. We also bought a nice Sealy mattress topper, which added some softness to it. Couldnt sleep on it without as we both have arthritis in hips and knees. Pricey but at 60% off it was a bargain

We ordered the firm mattress because of back problems, it has really helped in this area, we should say that it softens after a little use. We love the fact that the sides have extra support which makes getting in and out of bed far easier. After reading other reviews we bought a memory foam topper which made it a little easier to sleep on. We cannot fault the delivery men, they called before arriving, unwrapped the new mattress and placed it on the bed, used the plastic cover over the old mattress and took it away, an excellent service. Would definitely recommend and good value for the money.

I have been a Sealy fan for more than 20 years. I knew this brand because of a trip in Thailand (Sheraton hotel if I remember correctly) and I started to search for the product, since then I have been using Sealy and this is my 4th Sealy Mattress, 3 in HK and the fourth in UK. And my whole family including my Mom, my 2 kids are using Sealy (both in HK UK). It is no doubt, a very value for money product. The presence of Sealy helps a lot for my new move, to settle in, in a new country. Please take this as my thanks and appreciation.

very good supportive mattress has solved wife's tailbone issue.previously had he Luna Memory 1000 (Which Recommended) mattress just awful with no edge support it deformed the mattress over time replaced after barely 1 yr of use.I've had this mattress in the past albeit a larger size and have come back to this as its the best for us with proper edge support used with a Sealy mattress topper I tend to fall asleep very quickly.I could not recommend the Sealy mattress enough. Firm great edge support and good height.

I've had this mattress before I moved homes and knew it had helped my back instantly. However in the hurry of a new home, this one wasn't able to fit in with the move-in date I wanted so I had to order a different mattress (not this one) which was awful and I was in pain. I gave it a chance but knew I had to search for this same one again and buy it to replace it. I could not be any happier and knew it will be my go-to for firmness, even spread of support and also suits my 6ft 6 half's stature.

I like a firm mattress, due to a serious back injury in my teens. I'm now 51 and suffer from constant back ache, although I'm very fit, healthy and cycling is my life, covering 150 miles a week and weigh 73kgs at 5'11". The mattress is pure quality and after using a memory foam (never again) it is very firm, comfortable and I sleep like a top.! People who suffer with their back and I know there are 1000's will love this mattress. Those like a firm comfortable mattress will too.

Having suffered on and off for a few years now with a mysterious lower back pain which would come and go for no reason, I decided to invest (after 12 years!) in a new Sealy mattress - within a day, I noticed the difference - no back pain and no feeling of 'weakness ' as if it could go at any time. At the same time, I bought a new supportive pillow ... best decision ever! It's a very firm mattress, with no roll to the centre and I can actually feel my back realigning.

Excellent mattress - the firmest I've tried in a long time. And the edges don't bow when you sit on it (I'm a 58kg woman so don't expect that to happen - but it has, even with "firm" mattresses, in the past). This mattress says "extra firm" and it actually IS that. This definitely isn't always the case in my experience. I need a mattress that is a step up from sleeping on a carpeted floor. This is it. Best nights sleep in a long time.

Had this mattress for a month now. It's solid! If you want a hard, supportive bed, buy this one. For the first week I had trouble sleeping on it as it is super hard. I still sleep on top of the duvet for extra comfort. I suffer terrible with my lower back and this has given me comfort to sleep flat on my back. I can't sleep on my sides however.It is very solid though and so far hasn't dipped when sitting on the edge or anything.

Very firm, supports entire frame but takes some days to get accustomed to.After almost a year of broken sleep after an injury this mattress held me together well enough that I slept a solid ( and dream filled) 8 hours.I'm quite light, 8 stones so expected a paving slab like feel, so was very surprised at the give this mattress has without compromising firmness.Excellent. Requires turning every 4 weeks

Bought this mattress as wanted a really firm design due to sleepless nights and back ache from previous well known brands. I found the mattress very firm and almost uncomfortable for the first few nights and after that once used to it, it is perfect for what I need. No more backache and a good nights sleep. The mattress stays firm with no roll together, so very happy with it.

Best nights sleep for a long time.No aches when I get up in the morning now.Wished we got one of these years ago.I was a bit concerned as my husband likes a firm mattress, and I always go for a medium one, but as he was complaining of a bad back every morning, and me having aches in my hip, all these aches have now gone.It is very comfortable, not hard, just more support.

We needed an extra firm supportive mattress and this mattress has certainly met our requirements. There is individual support with no roll together effect. If you like 'very firm' this is the mattress to choose. This mattress is to be rotated on a regular basis (not turned over) and there are two adequate material handles on either side to be able to do this.

This mattress is nice and high as I have a low bed. It's nice and hard, had this mattress for 3 days and I haven't woken up with a back pain so far. I use to get terrible back ache with my previous mattress which was a foam based one but I can't fault this one. It's a very firm bed and something I have to get the used to but no pain which is excellent.

Really happy with my purchase, wanted a firm orthopaedic mattress and this fits the bill perfectly. I have suffered lower back pain for a number of years now. This will be my third mattress and finally I think I have found one that helps. I've been sleeping on the mattress for about 2 weeks now and have noticed a definite improvement, espesially in the mornings.

As a slightly large than normal person who also does strongman a good mattress is a must for sleeping and supporting the back. My last memory foam started to collapse after a year and ended up causing bad neck/back pain etc. Since buying this one, which is extra firm, i have sleeped like a baby neck pain has gone and i cant fault it all. Would highly recommend!!!

Wonderfully firm, as advertised. Also very comfortable, which helps!Weve had Sealy Posturepedic mattresses for many years, but this is the best so far. I no longer have a stiff back when I get up in the morning; and we both sleep very well.Also like the fact that we no longer have to flip the mattress, just rotate it. Much easier for ageing old folk!

Very solid, there's no sagging when you sit on the edge. If you want a very hard mattress, it's this one. If you aren't sure about buying one online, because you've not tried it, get this one anyway and if you find it too hard, put a topper on it. I'll never spend 3x the money in a mattress shop again.

Mattress may be extra firm but it is not like lying on the floor hard,it just gives your joints support and helps if you have any sort of problem.

Great to have next day delivery. Item was in stock and ready. Item is very good value for money. Mattress is good for guests, as it's firm but not too firm. Excellent product.

Once I got used to the hard support it is great. It's even got handles. I'm twenty stone and am hoping it will last longer than the the last mattress...only time will tell.

Very firm, yet comfortable. Seems robust and made of high-quality materials. The handles on the sides are helpful. The price compared favourably with other mattresses I found online.

Very firm mattress, which won't be to everyone's taste but is perfect for me. I used to wake up each morning with back ache, that has gone completely with this mattress.

Bought one from a store for a family member. Back problem requires good support so based on that renewed my Sealy support mattress for a better Sealy firm support type.

Pricelessly good back support. The matress has cured me of the back pain that the previous (almost 4x more expensive) one was causing. Now wake up without a back ache.

Fantastic quality mattress. Very happy with our purchase - did take a week or so to get use to how firm it is - but definitely have less back aches in the morning.

I had one with the bed I bought from the Co-Op in 2009. I thought it was great, so when it became tangibly aged I chose another Sealy to replace the original.

Mattress it replaced was "similar" Sealy model but new mattress far more substantial, do believe it will give good service as did previous mattress.
