Tests & Verdict

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 12+ years of industry insight.

Also known as the Eco-Comfort 1200 mattress, the Sofia is one of Silentnight's most popular models and manages to have mass market appeal by creating an ideal mid-range beating product.

When I trialed the Sofia 1200 I found it firmer than average but with a deep enough comfort layer to accommodate side sleepers without difficulty. The result of this is you get all the benefits of firm support for back sleepers, without the downside for side sleepers. 

Great reviews and consistently featured in top 10 lists throughout the UK. 

The 5 year guarantee gives great piece of mind that you don't get with a lot of other models from some of the big retailers.

Some unique reports of sagging that go against the otherwise-positive grain. Generally these mattresses still need to be rotated in line with manufacturer care instructions.

Why our sleep experts loved it

The Silentnight Sofia 1200 Mirapocket Mattress is actually more commonly known as the Silentnight Eco Comfort 1200 Mattress and is one of the more popular mattreses sold by Silentnight through online retailers. Featuring 1200 pocketed springs it offers a fatnastic support system with more than enough tension to support the neck and back where necessary.

Being on the market for only a few years, this mattress takes advantage of the new push by Silentnight to get more serious about recycling and that means Eco Comfort Fibres. The Silentnight Sofia 1200 Mirapocket Mattress comes with an eco comfort top comfort layer that is both luxuriously soft but also recyclable, having being made from plastic bottles previously. Ideal for the environmentally conscious that are still looking for a great nights sleep.

This mattress is rated as a medium firm tension but having personally laid on this mattress for an extended period it definitely felt more medium tension. This is entirely subjective so don't take my word for it, but the good news is that suitability would be extended further toward the average person making it ideal for pretty much everyone.

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.

We needed a new mattress and we were attracted by the "which" awards received by the silentnight sofia 1200.We have had it for a couple of weeks and for now we are satisfied but please bear in mind:1): the mattress is quite firm -so do not buy it if you like soft-ish ones- however it has definitely improved some back and hip pain.2): I have noticed that it is slightly sagging, so (after 2 weeks) I have turned it up side down (unlike memory foam mattresses, it can be turned). The slight sagging for now does not seem to be affecting the firmness, but I would say that it is a bit too early to express a final judgement. Overall we are happy with the product.

Excellent mattress, my old mattress was a silent night miracoil and was without a doubt the worst sleeping experience of my life. I slept on the couch for almost a year untill I could afford another. I'm surprised I even went with another silent night product but it came highly recommended. As I'm a big giant, I went for a more supportive option, the firmness is great for your back but some may find it to hard, I added a matress topper to it and for me it's the perfect bed now. Great support from the matress and the extra squishyness from the topper.

Bought this for my son (12) who, after lots of testing of mattresses in the showrooms picked this as his favourite. We knew we were looking for a firmish mattress and this fit the bill. It's not so firm that it's like a board but it is so supportive and comfy. My husband and I thought our own mattress was fine until this arrived and we laid on it...might have to invest in a king size one too! The top is padded and comfy but not the overheating memory foam that a lot of others have. My son is very happy...and that says it all really.

No more sore backs and getting up with stiff joints in the morning. Firm but not hard so neck is not stiff in the morning. Not so aware when partner turns over as the matress doesn't move because of different style of springing from our old mattress. Nice and deep. Handles make it easier to turn. Do'nt seem to overheat now as I did with memory foam mattress. Very good value for money. Two day delivery was brilliant.

Everything about this mattress is good for me. I haven't had a bad night sleep since it arrived., its very hard to get out of bed now, as it is just so comfortable. When I read reviews before I bought it, people had said there were no handles, but this one has handles! Albeit it is just too heavy for me, living on my own, to turn, so have to wait for help! But worth every penny and more

This is such a comfortable mattress. The only reason I gave it a 9 for quality was a slight stitching flaw on one section but this has no impact on the overall product usability. It provides excellent support, whilst not being like a brick. The pocket springs mean I no longer wake my partner up if I need to get up in the night which is actually life-changing. It really is a super product.

A good description when deciding on which mattress to buy meant I know have a medium/firm mattress which supports my back and enables a good night's sleep. I would describe this mattress as more firm than medium. It looks good.It is deep and quite heavy - bare this in mind for linen change - it is easier to change sheets with two people. I would buy this mattress again.

I had this mattress for 6 years and then moved house. The mattress was still as comfortable with no signs of wear and tear, or lacking support at that point. It's a good firmness and I stopped me getting backache which I often got with softer mattresses. Therefore when I moved I opted for the same mattress and it's still just as good. Highly recommend.

Extremely comfortable - I thought that my old bed was reasonable if a little on the worn side, but my quality of sleep and comfort on this mattress is amazingly better by comparison. It is supportive in just the right way, and neither too warm or cool when sleeping. Great value for money at just over four hundred pounds for the king sized version.

After sleeping on futons for years, this is the first mattress I've ever bought so I was particular and researched extensively for what I could get with limited budget for optimum quality, reputation, etc. This mattress is lovely and very supportive and I'm very happy to sleep on it every night. I feel it will keep me for years.
