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.

While still arguably a lot of money, the Artisan Superior is at a price point that will appeal to many looking for a luxury mattress.

The 10 year guarantee shows that the manufacturer will stand behind this product.

Hypoallergenic materials will ensure you suffer as little as possible when it comes to allergies.

Pillow tops can be divisive but ultimately offer you another layer of comfort which many regard as a good thing provided proper maintenance and rotation in line with manufacturer guidelines is observed.

Price point will alienate a large portion of the public.

The bespoke handmade nature of this mattress means that lead times are particularly long.

Blended natural fillings are great but with no percentage inclusion of what makes this up, we are somewhat left blind to the exact make-up within the mattress.

Micro springs probably do very little in this mattress, you could argue it could have been made slightly cheaper with the exclusion and nobody would have really noticed.

Why our sleep experts loved it

The Staples & Co Artisan Superior range is a luxurious collection of mattresses made from natural and recycled materials, which means that each mattress is kind to your body and the environment. It's not only the world that benefits from these mattresses but you as well; they're naturally breathable, and you get the benefits of a better night’s sleep too.

Unpacking the different layers within this deep mattress we first come across the comfort layer which sits at the top layer and is the primary point of contact between your body and the base layer below. This layer is made up of natural & organic fibres which have been blended to create deep and luxurious comfort that is both environmentally friendly while also being both breathable and soft making it a fantastic choice for back and side sleepers alike.

Onto the support layer and you get a double helping in the form of high quality pocket springs paired off with an additional layer of micro pocket springs. These units work hand-in-hand to give more precise body contouring and zonal support with the higher the number largely dictating the quality on offer (to a point). 

Tension is a free-for-all with offerings available that include soft, medium and firm. If you are a primarily side sleeper with wide hips and an hourglass frame there could be an argument for the soft but we generally find most people will suit the medium tension. Finally there is the firm which offers more orthopaedic-like support that will satisfy those who desire additional back and neck support while they sleep.

Ultimately the Artisan Superior mattress (regardless of which tension you find suitable) is a great investment for anyone who wants a natural, eco-friendly alternative to traditional mattresses and who wants to sleep better than ever before. With their quality, and the commitment to high quality at a reasonable price point, the barrier for entry into the luxurious mattress segment has never been lower.

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.

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 mattress is amazing quality. It replaced my old Feather & Black (expensive brand) one that had seen better days and was trying to cripple me!! It's just so comfortable (Medium support) which is still firm enough to give support but also has enough give to hug you. My only criticism is the pillow style top initially felt too dippy where the buttons pulls it in but as I've used it over past month it has settled more so less noticeable. Also have a thickish mattress protector which smooths it out. This is a thick / deep mattress at 35cm so if like me your old one was around 25/8cm be prepared to buy new fitted sheets! It's not a cheap mattress by any stretch but it's deffo worth the extra money. All natural materials too! What's not to love.

Wonderfully comfortable,, very supportive and totally cosy for me.. My husband is finding it more difficult as the thickness of the mattress makes the bed very high and he has a very painful knee. But he says he does like the mattress. I'm worried that it very heavy for us to turn around and may have to ask our children to help us. Also difficult to change the under sheets. For the same reason. However it is exactly the to my specific request for many supportive springs in pockets with natural wool padding. We will learn to cope and it is totally cosy.

Absolutely fabulous, im disabled with back and hip issues. This is giving me a really decent night's sleep. We bought the equivalent mattress from Bensons around 12 years ago. It gave us many years of comfort and good sleep. When we needed to buy a replacement we at 1st bought a top of the range simba, which was a huge mistake. Thank god we had the 200 night guarantee. We went to buy the same again and so glad we did. Hopefully we'll get another 12 years but we'll be buying another when needed

Mattress seems excellent, but seven out of eight divan base drawers (note two beds purchased) poorly assembled, requiring remedial work to secure drawer runners. Hurried use of powered screwdriver with necessarily short screws (1/2 inch) suspected as cause, also minimal screws used (only 2-3) per runner. Some scuff marks were also visible on divan base where packaging had provided insufficient protection.

The sales lady we spoke to was very knowledgeable about this mattress. Delivery was on time. The mattress was to replace one that had done well in the past, this one is very comfortable and very heavy due to the amount of springs in it which could make turning it round for someone who is not very mobile a wee bit difficult. We have only had it for two months so far we don't have any issues.

Bought this because our original mattress (again from Bensons) was reaching the end of its useful like and we were getting aches and pains after a night's sleep. The new Artisan Superior mattress has changed things radically in a very short period of time. No more lower back ache, sore arms and shoulders. And on top of that, it is incredibly comfortable so undisturbed sleep has returned.

After having our Tempur mattress for a while, we realised it was no longer comfortable so went shopping for a Tempur replacement. As soon as we tried the Utopia mattress, "this is the one" my husband said, he has a bad back and I agreed, it is super comfortable and well made. It was not cheap but you know the old adage, you get what you pay for and this is quality.

Seems like an excellent product. Uplift of our old mattress and delivery of our new one was seamless. The guys were great. We both have slept very well since we've had it. Thanks to the advice about turning the mattress and sitting in the middle of reading or watching TV we're hoping that the hump that tends to appear in the middle of a super king-size can be avoided.

Fabulous. Mattress was just what I hoped it would be. I've slept like a log from the first day it arrived. Very good quality and well made. Easy to turn with the handles. Bensons gave good communication for delivery and arrived within time advised. Very pleased. I bought the Artisan Superior Mattress and whilst a bit pricey, worth every penny.

A beautiful mattress that is supportive without being too firm. The topper is very comfortable, dipping slightly but it has not been turned yet. We have had no trouble sleeping on it. I have always wanted to own a staples mattress after working in the industry many years ago... I haven't been disappointed. I would recommend this product to anyone.

I bought the medium and it's as comfortable all through the night as it was in the showroom. It has good support yet a plush mattress topper. It's not too heavy to turn but you do need deep fitted sheets to cover it all. It has helped my morning backache and gives me a good night's sleep - so important as I'm now in my sixties
