Assessed from British Bed Company's published specification for this mattress, captured September 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.
Choose this if you want memory foam comfort without a big memory foam price. The 25mm foam layer moulds to your body, which means pressure relief at the hips and shoulders, while the 1000 pocket springs move independently to limit roll-together if you share the bed. Hypoallergenic polyester fibre fillings help if you're sensitive to allergens, and hand tufting keeps the fillings in place over time. It's one-sided, so no flipping, just regular rotation, and the border handles make that easier. Delivery is free, with next day available if you order by 4pm Monday to Friday. Yes, the 1 year guarantee is short, but at a from-price of £299 the risk is lower than it might be.
Key Features & what's inside
- Soft damask cover. A soft woven damask cover that promotes breathability, which means heat can escape rather than build up around you. The patterned finish gives it a traditional look.
- 25mm memory foam layer. A 25mm layer of body-moulding memory foam sits above the springs, with small holes that seep out air under pressure. In practice, that means the foam moves with the contours of your body rather than trapping you in one spot.
- 1000 pocket spring unit. 1000 independently moving pocket springs respond to your movement individually. That helps prevent roll-together, so a partner shifting position is less likely to disturb you.

Who's it NOT for?
Skip this if you want a long guarantee: it's 1 year only, unusually short. The 60-night trial is exchange-only, requires buying a mattress protector at the point of order, runs between nights 30 and 60 and carries a £50 exchange fee. Some owners also found it softer than expected, so firm-mattress fans should look elsewhere.

Across 494 Trustpilot-verified owner reviews on the Mattressman product page, summarised there by AI, buyers praise the comfort and support, credit the memory foam with easing back pain, and rate it strong value. A few found it softer than expected, and some noted softness at the edges.

How firm is the British Bed Company Memory Pocket Deluxe 1000?
It's medium tension on the firmness rating scale. That suits most sleepers, although a few owners found it softer than expected, so if you prefer a firm feel this may not be the one. Lighter sleepers and side sleepers are more likely to find the medium tension comfortable.
Does the Memory Pocket Deluxe 1000 come with a trial?
There's a 60-night sleep trial, but read the conditions carefully. It's exchange-only, not a refund, it's activated by buying a mattress protector at the point of order, exchanges happen between nights 30 and 60, and there's a £50 exchange fee.
How long is the guarantee on this mattress?
Just 1 year, which is short compared with what many brands offer. At a from-price of £299 that may be a trade-off you can live with, but if long-term cover matters to you, factor it into your decision.
Do you need to flip the Memory Pocket Deluxe 1000?
No. It's one-sided, so there's no turning, but you should rotate it regularly to even out wear. Handles on the border make rotating easier, and the hand-tufted construction helps keep the fillings settled in place.
What sizes does the Memory Pocket Deluxe 1000 come in?
Five UK sizes: Single, Small Double, Double, King and Super King, priced from £299 to £569. Delivery is free, and next day delivery is available if you order by 4pm Monday to Friday.
