I searched for weeks in different shops looking for a bed that would, suit my needs and give me a good nights sleep. O have a back problem and a lung disease which causes me to have difficult nights, I'm restless and can never get comfortable at night to sleep. I finally found the one, the one bed that had not only given me the ability to feel relaxed and comfortable but i SLEEP. This is a big deal to me ,as i can sometimes go several night without any. The bed mattress exterior in a lovely soft light padding, and although the mattress is class as soft its still firm enough, that it allows my spine the correct position. I feel the mattress almost cuddles me up as i sink in to it . I also got it at a slightly reduced price in the sale. Thank you Dreams so much.

The most comfortable mattress i have ever slept on,... If your significant other is actually a human hot water bottle and you enjoy the cool side of the pillow then this is the mattress for you, Disclaimer: If you actually have to get up in the morning and go about your business then i wouldn't recommend it as it is far too comfortable and before you know it you have slept through all of your alarms and might as well go back to bed and wait for tomorrow to try again.

Absolutely fantastic experience with dreams. We went into the shop and the assistant was so attentive and really helped us to find our dream bed. The guys who came to put up the bed were so efficient and so friendly. The bed is absolutely perfect, so comfortable and would 1000% recommend dreams to anyone who is struggling to sleep and want a perfect investment.

Mattress seems good quality but feels much softer than it did in the shop which has caused a fair bit of back pain. Giving it the 30 days to see if i adjust to it.

Carolina Dreaming

Hi can I use an electric blanket on top of the mattress protector with my Therapur Polar 2000 motion mattress or can you suggest alternative?

Answer: Using an electric blanket is safe with all the mattresses, however they can affect the feel and can soften the fillings over time, especially with mattresses containing memory foam. We dont recommend placing electric blankets directly on the mattress surface without a sheet, as this can cause the fillings to overheat and void the mattress warranty. Please follow the guidelines provided with the product. Many thanks,

mymbletwo

You can find more information on this online, alternatively you can give the customer service team a call and they can talk you through it.

Ask question

What Makes The TheraPur ActiGel® Polar 1000 Combination Mattress Great?

We've expanded on the specifications of the product to better help you understand it's benefits.

Medium comfort grade

Medium tension mattresses are suitable for the vast majority of people as they are not too soft, nor too firm. This firmness can offer a good amount of back and neck support while still being soft enough to prove suitable for side sleepers. The key benefit for this type of layer is that it's sort of a "one size fits all" approach that gives your body the contouring and support necessary while remaining soft and squishy.

Fully hypoallergenic finish

The presence of a fully hypoallergenic finish ensures relief from potential irritations or allergies—a bonus for individuals who might find themselves susceptible to such reactions. Furthermore, this trait bears an implication: by warding off allergens, the mattress effectively encourages a healthier, cleaner sleeping environment, contributing to better overall well-being.

Layered with recyclable I-Fibre® and Platinum 3D®

Featuring the eco-friendly I-Fibre® layer, this construction ensures an ethical choice while enhancing sleep quality through unparalleled support and comfort. The integration of the Platinum 3D® layer introduces an advanced technology that delivers remarkable breathability and improved comfort, ensuring cool and tranquil nights.

Cooling ActiGel® foam optimises airflow

Having Cooling ActiGel® foam incorporated into a mattress could be seen as an advantageous feature. This material aids in optimising the level of airflow, potentially resulting in an enhanced sense of comfort and overall sleep quality due to a more regulated temperature throughout your sleep cycle.

Rest easy with a 1-year guarantee

A one year guarantee is suitable for many as the vast majority of problems that may occur often do so within that first year. At the same time, more and more retailers are beginning to offer multi-year warranty and guarantees although these often come at a slightly higher price point on average.

Antibacterial fillings keep your mattress fresh

Harnessing the power of antibacterial fillings presents a massive advantage when it comes to maintaining a fresh, hygienic sleep environment. This significant attribute combats bacteria growth, reducing potential allergies and thus, enhancing the quality of your rest.

Knitted ActiCool® cover is instantly cooling

Being shrouded with an ActiCool® cover, one can anticipate a refreshing sleep experience. Especially in those warmer months, the cooling attribute of this cover plays a pivotal role, making it a practical choice for individuals prone to night-time overheating.

Single-sided

Single sided means only one side is comfy. Positives are you only need to rotate the mattress occassionaly rather than the more cumbersome rotate and flip. Downside is the lifespan of the product may suffer as a result, only marginal, but worth mentioning.

Comes with our 100-Night Comfort Guarantee

This can provide some peace of mind to the consumer, as it allows them to test the mattress in the comfort of their own home and make sure it's the right fit for their sleeping preferences and needs.

Made in the UK

These are made and manufactured in the UK, meaning that they all meet the same exceptional quality and durability that we expect from genuine UK manufacturing.
