Assessed from Bodyshape's published specification for this mattress, captured September 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.
If you're a hot sleeper, the gel foam layer is the main draw here. It has an open cell structure that allows for increased airflow, which means less of that trapped, sticky heat some foam mattresses cause. Beneath it, 2000 pocket springs each sit in their own fabric pocket and react independently, so movement on one side of the bed is less likely to disturb the other. The 100-night trial gives you a proper stretch of time to decide at home, and free delivery to most locations keeps the upfront cost down. Yes, the 5-year guarantee is shorter than some brands offer, but at this price point the value still stacks up well.
Key Features & what's inside
- Gel Foam. A soft 2.5cm gel pad that is inherently cooler than traditional memory foam, with an open cell structure allowing increased airflow. In practice, that means a comfortable surface that's less likely to leave you overheating at night.
- Soft White Fibres. Soft synthetic fillings that add a cushioned, comfortable feel between you and the springs. They're also incredibly durable, which helps the mattress keep its shape over time.
- Pocket Springs. 2000 pocket springs, each encased in its own fabric pocket so it can react independently of its neighbours. You'll feel this as support that follows your body's shape rather than the whole bed moving as one.

Who's it NOT for?
This one won't work if you need a double, king or super king: it only comes in UK Single and UK Small Double. Sleepers who want a properly firm surface may find the medium feel a little soft, and across owner reviews one buyer felt the edge support didn't fully live up to the marketing.

Is the Bodyshape Gel 2000 mattress firm or medium?
Bodyshape describes it as medium. Some retailer listings label it medium firm, but going by the brand's own description you should expect a medium feel: supportive from the 2000 pocket springs, with a softer gel foam surface on top.
Does the Bodyshape Gel 2000 come with a trial?
Yes, it comes with a 100-night trial, so you can sleep on it at home for over three months before committing. There's also a 5-year guarantee covering the mattress after that.
Is the Bodyshape Gel 2000 good for hot sleepers?
It's a sensible pick if you sleep warm. The top layer is gel foam, which is inherently cooler than traditional memory foam, and its open cell structure allows increased airflow. Owner reviews specifically praise its cooling properties.
What sizes does the Bodyshape Gel 2000 come in?
It's available in UK Single and UK Small Double only, priced from £314 to £408. If you need a standard double or king, this model won't fit the bill.
How is the Bodyshape Gel 2000 delivered?
Delivery is free to most locations, with next day delivery available on weekdays and weekend delivery as an option. Delivery to your room of choice costs £20.00, and old mattress removal is available for £35.00.
