At 18cm deep, the Bodyshape Vitality is slimmer than many foam mattresses, which means it suits slatted bases and adjustable frames well but may feel a little shallow if you're used to a taller bed. You get a 100-night trial and a 3-year guarantee, plus a removable, washable knitted cover. It's a sensible budget option rather than a luxury one, and across verified owner reviews it holds a 4.5 rating.

Why should you choose this mattress?
This is a mattress for buyers who want straightforward memory foam comfort without the price tag. The 2.5cm high density memory foam layer shapes to your body to ease pressure, which means fewer aches at hips and shoulders, while the 15.5cm reflex foam base responds to movement and weight to keep support where you need it. It's handcrafted in the UK, conforms to BS7177: 2008 fire resistance standards, and Bodyshape is a National Bed Federation Approved Brand. Yes, the memory foam layer is thinner than on pricier models, but with an affordable starting price, a 100-night trial and free delivery to most locations, that trade-off feels fair.
Key features & layer details
High Density Memory Foam
A 2.5cm layer of high density memory foam that shapes around your body to relieve built-up pressure. You'll feel a gentle cradling at your hips and shoulders rather than a deep sink.
Reflex Foam
The 15.5cm reflex foam layer responds to changes in movement or weight, tailoring support to the places that need it most. In practice, that means a stable, springy base that stops you feeling stuck in the mattress.

Best suited for?
Budget buyers
The copy calls it a sensible budget option, with straightforward memory foam comfort, a 100-night trial and a 3-year guarantee at an affordable starting point.
Adjustable beds
At 18cm deep, it is slimmer than many foam mattresses, which means it suits adjustable frames well and should sit neatly on the base.
Side sleepers
The 2.5cm memory foam layer gives a gentle cradling at the hips and shoulders, so pressure points get cushioning without a deep sink.
Back sleepers
A medium firm feel with a 15.5cm reflex foam base keeps support stable and springy, so you are not left feeling stuck in the mattress.
Guest rooms
A removable, washable knitted cover makes it easy to keep fresh between visitors, and the 18cm build keeps the bed simple and sensible.
If you like a deep, plush sink, the 2.5cm memory foam layer is slim, so you'll feel the firmer base fairly quickly. Heavier sleepers wanting a taller, more substantial build may also find the 18cm depth a touch shallow. And if you sleep hot, memory foam does hold some warmth.
Save on an earlier or ex-display model
Some retailers still sell the earlier version of this mattress, or ex-display and returned stock at a lower price. These are the sizes where it costs less than the current model's best price.

FAQ's
How firm is the Bodyshape Vitality mattress?
Bodyshape describes it as medium. That said, one owner reviewer felt it leaned more medium-firm, so if you're a lightweight side sleeper who prefers a softer surface, it may feel slightly firmer than expected.
Does the Bodyshape Vitality come with a trial and guarantee?
Yes. You get a 100-night trial to test it at home, plus a 3-year guarantee. That's a shorter guarantee than some brands offer, but the trial gives you plenty of time to be sure before committing.
What sizes does the Bodyshape Vitality come in?
It's available in UK Single, Small Double, Double, King and Super King.
Can you wash the Bodyshape Vitality mattress cover?
Yes, the knitted cover is removable and washable, which is handy for keeping the mattress fresh, especially if you suffer from allergies or share the bed with pets.
How is the Bodyshape Vitality delivered?
Delivery is free to most locations, with next day delivery available on weekdays and weekend delivery also on offer. Delivery to your room of choice is a paid option, and old mattress removal is available for an extra charge.
