Why Our Sleep Experts Loved It

becky says

You spend about a third of your life sleeping, which is why it’s so important to have a comfortable mattress like the Simply By Bensons Bloom. If you’re like most people, you probably don’t think about your mattress very often. However, when that time comes (normally around 7 to 8 years), and you start to feel more aches or develop other problems sleeping then it becomes apparent how much your bed affects your quality of life. This new Bloom mattress gets a lot of things right and at a price point that is lower than the typical but with a fantastic guarantee and great brand establishment to back it up. 

Who is the mattress for

Starting with the biggest questions first, let’s look into suitability. To start, this is an open coil sprung mattress which is commonly found in both budget and mid-range products. It is typically found in the base layer on single sided mattresses that do not need rotation as the comfort layer will only be on one side. 

In the case of the Bloom, it’s a budget mattress with fairly budget components. I personally prefer the pocket spring technology found in more expensive mattresses, but don’t let that dissuade you, there's a few reasons to consider this product. First things first, the tension given off by the springs and upper layers is a medium rating which has mass market appeal and should suit most people of average build who sleep either on their back or side. The spring system, while not my favourite, does still offer good body contouring and responsive properties that will be suitable for many years to come. What’s more, the 5 year guarantee will give those looking for an additional piece of mind a good amount of confidence.

Who is the mattress not suitable for?

Those with back pain who are looking for orthopaedic support from a new mattress should look elsewhere as this is a one-size-fits-all approach to mattress building that will not adapt to your needs in this instance. Same too for those of a heavier variety who require more support than this medium tension will give.

Where in the market does the mattress compete?

The Bloom is safely inside budget territory and that is reflected by the inclusion of the open coil spring and single sided design. There are benefits to this though, as an open coil is durable and long lasting while the single sided nature of the product means you do not need to flip it, saving on time and effort making for a hassle-free experience.

What is the level of firmness experienced?

The Bloom comes in the middle at a rating of 5, where 10 is firm and 1 is soft. This is to be expected given the medium tension springs, deep comfort layer fillings and design of the spring system. This makes it ideal for side sleepers and back sleepers alike.

How does it feel?

Firmness of The Simply By Bensons Bloom Mattress depends on bodyweight. Adjust your weight below to get an indication of how it may feel. Remember though that firmness is entirely subjective.

Key Performance Indicators KPI question mark

Our Key Performance Indicators are produced using a combination of specification-heavy algoritmic data points and user reviews. For example, a firm pocket spring support layer is more breathable and offers better back support but may prove unsuitable for side sleepers, the reverse is true for a soft-medium tension reflex foam support layer. This is one of 100+ datapoints considered when generating the below ratings.

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.
  • 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

    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★

What Makes The Simply By Bensons Bloom Mattress Great?

Deep open coil mattress springs – to evenly distribute body weight and improve support

An open coil mattress is a standard sprung mattress that has open coil springs, a very popular mattress type. Open coil traditional sprung mattresses are less expensive than pocket sprung mattresses thanks to having interconnected coils that are easier and cheaper to manufacture. A standard sprung mattress is a popular mattress style that has been around for over a century.

Tufted sleep surface – offering orthopaedic support

Tufts help to keep the filling in place, preventing it from shifting around and bunching up. This helps to maintain the mattress's shape and provides a more comfortable sleeping surface. Tufts can also add strength and durability to a mattress, helping it to last longer.

Damask cover – soft yet durable

There are many benefits to owning a Belgian damask cover. For one, they are incredibly beautiful and add a touch of luxury to any room. They are also very durable, so you can expect them to last for many years. Additionally, they are great at insulating against both heat and cold, making them ideal for use in any climate.

Future friendly recycled comfort layer – soft, breathable, and hypoallergenic

This comfort layer is both deep and luxurious and provides a soft and comfortable layer that you can sink into, providing a breathable all-season mattress that will remain durable for longer thanks to great settlement properties.

New-life recycled foundation layer – for cushioned support

New life yarns are designed to provide a number of benefits in a mattress. They are intended to improve the overall comfort of the mattress, as well as increase its durability. Additionally, new life yarns can help to regulate body temperature, making the mattress more comfortable to sleep on.

Outer edge support – for increased durability

Outer edge support in a mattress is the firmness of the mattress around the perimeter. This is important because it prevents you from feeling like you are going to roll off the edge of the mattress when you are sleeping. A mattress with good outer edge support will have a firmness that is evenly distributed around the perimeter of the mattress.

Easy-care – no need to turn, with handles for easy rotation

No turn mattresses are one sided by design which means that the comfort layer is only on one side, with the support layer beneath. The benefit of these mattresses is that they are easier to maintain, with no flipping necessary. Instead, simply rotate in line with manufacturer recommendations to help increase lifespan and improve durability.

Free full 5-year guarantee – for total peace of mind

This sort of guarantee goes beyond the average offered by retailers in the industry. 5 years is almost the full average lifespan for a mattress which gives you great piece of mind and shows just how much trust the brand and retailer have in their product.

Comfort rating – Firm or Extra Firm

A firm mattress provides support for the sleeper’s body, preventing them from sinking too deeply into the mattress and potentially causing back pain. Additionally, a firm mattress is beneficial for people who sleep on their stomachs and backs.

Mattress depth – 20cm

A 20cm depth mattress is on the limit for what might be acceptable for the top of a bunk bed. Mileage will vary depending on the make, model and brand of the frame used alongside this mattress however as some require slimmer mattresses. Aside from this, a 20cm mattress will suit standard bed sheets.
