The Coolflex Essentials Pocket Memory Hybrid is rated medium, a feel that suits most sleepers, although anyone who prefers a firm, flat surface may find it a little too yielding. At 24cm deep with a knitted cover, it's a fairly standard height that works with most fitted sheets. It's good value for a hybrid, and it comes with a 5-year guarantee. Coolflex offers free next day delivery.

Why should you choose this mattress?
This is a sensible pick if you want a hybrid without a big spend. The 800 pocket springs move independently, which means you feel support where your body needs it rather than a uniform push-back, and the memory foam layer softens pressure at your hips and shoulders. It carries hypoallergenic and antimicrobial certifications, useful if allergies bother you at night, and it's vegan friendly. Yes, the 2cm memory foam layer is thin compared with deeper-topped hybrids, but at an affordable starting price the balance of springs and foam is hard to fault. Five sizes are available, from UK Single up to UK Super King, and free next day delivery means no long wait.
Key features & layer details
Memory Foam
A 2cm layer of memory foam sits on top, moulding to your body for orthopaedic support and comfort. In practice, this means less pressure on your hips and shoulders as you settle in.
Pocket Springs
Beneath the foam are 800 individual pocket springs, each hand-sewn into its own fabric pocket. They work independently, so the mattress responds to your shape rather than moving as one unit.

Best suited for?
Budget buyers
The copy calls it good value for a hybrid with an affordable starting price, so you get springs and foam without a big spend.
Allergy sufferers
Hypoallergenic and antimicrobial certifications mean this mattress is made with night-time allergy worries in mind, which is useful if dust or irritants bother you.
Couples
The 800 pocket springs work independently, so the mattress responds to each person's shape, and sizes up to UK Super King give a shared bed plenty of room.
Back sleepers
A medium feel with a 2cm memory foam layer over pocket springs gives support where your body needs it, with gentle softening at the hips.
Eco-conscious buyers
The copy describes this mattress as vegan friendly, which suits anyone who wants to avoid animal-derived materials in their bedding.
If you like a very firm feel, or you're a heavier sleeper who needs a thicker comfort layer and a higher spring count, this medium hybrid may feel slightly too soft and simple. Side sleepers wanting deep cushioning might also find the 2cm foam layer a little shallow.
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 Coolflex Essentials Pocket Memory Hybrid mattress?
Coolflex rates it as medium. That middle-ground feel suits most back and combination sleepers, although lightweight side sleepers may want something slightly softer, and if you prefer a firm mattress, you may want more push-back.
How many springs does the Coolflex Essentials hybrid have?
It has 800 individual pocket springs, each sewn into its own fabric pocket so it moves independently. This gives more tailored support than an open-coil mattress, though higher-count hybrids exist if you want extra contouring.
Does the Coolflex Essentials mattress come with a guarantee?
Yes, Coolflex includes a 5-year guarantee. That's a reasonable span for a mattress with an affordable starting price, covering you against manufacturing faults for a good stretch of its life.
Is the Coolflex Essentials hybrid mattress good for allergies?
It carries hypoallergenic and antimicrobial certifications, which means the materials are designed to resist common allergy triggers. It's also vegan friendly and meets the BS7177: 2008 low hazard fire resistance standard.
What sizes does the Coolflex Essentials Pocket Memory Hybrid come in?
Five UK sizes: Single, Small Double, Double, King and Super King. It comes with free next day delivery from Coolflex.
