Why our sleep experts loved it

The Relyon Orthofirm 800 Pocket Mattress is a high-quality and supportive option for those in need of an orthopaedic, firmer feel mattress. With 800 individual Posturepocket™ springs, this product provides excellent support and helps to evenly distribute weight for pressure relief. The pocket springs also ensure that there is no roll-together or transfer of movement between sleepers.

The Orthofirm 800 features a smooth and elegant damask cover, which is infused with 100% natural Bio-Protect probiotics to guard against bacteria and allergens such as dust mites. This makes it a safer and healthier option for those who may be concerned about such things. The cover is also hand-tufted, which helps to create a firmer feel and improve durability.

In addition to its supportive spring system, the Orthofirm 800 is filled with plush white fibres that provide a soft and comfortable feel. The comfort layers are also on both sides which means that it is also double-sided, so it can be flipped over once a month to ensure even wear and extend its lifespan.

Who will find this mattress suitable?

While this product may be suitable for many people, there are some individuals who may not enjoy the feel of a firmer mattress.

For example, side sleepers may find that a firmer product does not provide enough pressure relief for their hips and shoulders, which can cause discomfort. People with certain medical conditions, such as osteoporosis, may also find that a firmer mattress does not provide enough cushioning and support for their bones and joints.

Additionally, those who are used to sleeping on a softer, plushier mattress may find the firmer feel of the Orthofirm 800 to be too firm for their liking. While the product is filled with plush white fibres that provide a soft and comfortable feel, the overall feel of the mattress is still on the firmer side.

It is important to note that support tension preference is a very personal and subjective matter, and what one person may find comfortable and supportive may not be the same for another. It is always a good idea to try out a mattress before making a purchase, or to consider purchasing a mattress with a trial period or return policy so that you can test it out and decide if it is the right fit for you.

What Did Customers Think?

Based on real customer feedback, it appears that the Relyon Orthofirm 800 Pocket Mattress has received mostly positive feedback from customers. Many reviewers have noted that the product is firm and provides good support, with one customer stating that it is "very good for bad backs." Several reviewers have also mentioned that the bed is comfortable and provides a good night's sleep.

However, there was one review that stated that the item was "hopelessly unsupportive" and "not fit for purpose." It is important to note that mattress preference is a very personal and subjective matter, and what one person may find comfortable and supportive may not be the same for another. It is always a good idea to try out a mattress before making a purchase, or to consider purchasing a bed with a trial period or return policy so that you can test it out and decide if it is the right fit for you.

In terms of suggestions for improvement, one customer suggested adding a handle at the side of the mattress for easier carrying. This is a common feature on many mattresses and may be a useful addition for some customers. Overall, it seems that the Relyon Orthofirm 800 Pocket Mattress has received mostly positive feedback from customers, with many noting its firmness, comfort, and support.

Final Thoughts

Overall, the Relyon Orthofirm 800 Pocket Mattress is a well-made and comfortable choice for those who prefer a firmer feel and need additional support for their back.

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.
