Today we are looking at the Toulouse Ortho Comfort Mattress which, despite having the word ortho in its name, is more centred toward the middle-ground in tension, proving to be more popular than the niche specific orthopaedic mattresses that are otherwise designed for people who need additional back and neck support from their mattress. The terminology has become increasingly muddied in recent years and now, doesn’t really mean anything. Regardless of the naming convention for this product however, there are some great reasons to purchase the Toulouse, some of which we will go into momentarily.
So let's start with who this mattress is for, well to start with the tension coming in at a medium means that it will generally suit both back and side sleepers alike while still giving sufficient support to the neck and back while you sleep. This mattress also has great full-body contouring thanks to the high quality pocket springs that come in a generous amount to better apply pressure as and when needed.Combine this with a comfort layer that generous helpings of recycled yet soft materials inside the top layer and what you get is a soft-to-the-touch yet firm enough to make a difference product that punches fairly highly above its weight when it comes to price vs quality.
Who won’t this mattress suit however? Well, not too many people. We still believe that the Toulouse Ortho Mattress is probably the better call for those that are looking for orthopaedic support over this, the Comfort model which loses some of the rigidity that we feel is necessary for a true orthopaedic product. Regardless though, it is clear there is plenty here to give a great night's sleep.
More about where this mattress competes and the price point is on the tip of budget but what makes this really stand out is that those components, the pocket springs and fillings, are typically seen in products priced higher than this, normally in the mid-range (particularly when it comes to pocket springs) and so you are getting great value for money with this mattress.
But why choose this one? Well, aside from the above you are also getting a market-beating 5-year guarantee as standard, something competitors come up short against (not uncommon to see 1 years floating around). Further to this there is the Goldilocks effect whereby this tension and spring type gives it mass market appeal making it an easy purchase not requiring too much overthinking.
