Inside the Harrison Spinks Silver 6500's 29cm depth you'll find 1000 Cortec Quad Revolution pocket springs topped with 4500 micro springs, which means support that adjusts to your shape rather than a flat, uniform push-back. The comfort layers are natural: British wool, cotton, hemp and flax, with a recycled-fibre Ecotex layer for durability. There's no foam here, so it breathes well, though the gentler feel won't suit everyone. Available in five UK sizes from Single to Super King.

Why should you choose this mattress?
This mattress makes sense if you want natural materials without paying for a name alone. The wool, hemp and flax layers wick moisture and keep airflow moving, which means less overnight heat than foam-heavy designs. If you're a hot sleeper, that matters. The 4500 micro springs sit above the main 1000-spring unit and add contoured, close-contact comfort, so pressure points at the hips and shoulders get a softer landing. The cover is FR chemical-free, meeting fire safety standards naturally. It's a considered purchase, but the spring count and natural fillings justify the spend. Suits most back and side sleepers, although anyone who prefers a firm surface should look elsewhere.
Key features & layer details
Cover
An in-house woven cover that's FR chemical-free, meeting fire safety standards naturally. That means fewer chemicals close to where you breathe all night.
Wool comfort layer
Layers of British wool give a naturally soft yet springy feel. Wool insulates in winter and stays breathable in summer, so it works year round.
British wool, hemp and flax blend
An additional comfort layer that increases breathability. It also helps reduce a build-up of mildew and mould over time.
Cotton, hemp and flax blend
This layer wicks away moisture and adds further breathability. Useful if you tend to sleep warm or live somewhere damp.
Ecotex layer
A sustainable layer made from recycled fibres that strengthens the mattress. It also keeps material out of landfill.
Micro springs
4500 mini springs provide targeted, contoured comfort. Their small size means more contact points with your body and better airflow through the mattress.
Pocket springs
1000 Cortec Quad Revolution springs, each with a smaller spring inside and secured in groups of four. They move independently, which means your partner's tossing shouldn't reach your side of the bed.

Best suited for?
Side sleepers
The 4500 micro springs above the main spring unit give contoured, close-contact comfort, so hips and shoulders get a softer landing on a medium soft feel.
Back sleepers
Pocket springs that adjust to your shape, topped with micro springs, give contoured support rather than a flat, uniform push-back across the 29cm depth.
Warm sleepers
Wool, hemp and flax layers wick moisture and keep air moving, and with no foam in the mattress, less heat should build up overnight.
Couples
The 1000 Cortec Quad Revolution springs move independently, which means your partner's tossing shouldn't reach your side of the bed.
Eco-conscious buyers
Comfort layers of British wool, cotton, hemp and flax, plus a recycled-fibre Ecotex layer, keep natural materials central and divert material from landfill.
If you like a firm, supportive surface, this Soft to Medium feel will likely be too forgiving, particularly for heavier stomach sleepers who need to keep their hips level. And if you're on a tight budget, the starting price puts it beyond entry-level territory.
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 Harrison Spinks Silver 6500 mattress?
It has a Soft to Medium feel. That gentler surface suits side sleepers and lighter bodies well, as it lets shoulders and hips sink slightly for pressure relief. If you prefer to sleep on top of a firmer, flatter surface, this probably isn't the one for you.
How many springs does the Harrison Spinks Silver 6500 have?
It uses 1000 Cortec Quad Revolution pocket springs as the main support unit, with each spring containing a smaller spring inside it. Above that sits a layer of 4500 micro springs for closer, contoured comfort.
Does the Harrison Spinks Silver 6500 come with a trial period?
MattressOnline lists a 100-night trial with this mattress. That trial is the retailer's own offer rather than a Harrison Spinks guarantee, so if you buy elsewhere, check that retailer's returns terms before ordering.
Is the Harrison Spinks Silver 6500 good for hot sleepers?
It's a strong choice if you sleep warm. There's no memory foam to trap heat; instead the wool, cotton, hemp and flax layers wick moisture and breathe, and the micro springs allow air to move through the mattress.
How long is the guarantee on the Harrison Spinks Silver 6500?
The MattressOnline listing states a 5-year guarantee, matching the warranty other retailers list. As this comes from a retailer's page rather than the brand's own site, it's sensible to confirm guarantee terms with whichever retailer you buy from.
