The Highgrove Solar Ortho Dream sits firmly at the budget end. You get a hand tufted Belgian damask cover, hypo-allergenic fibre fillings with Tencel to help move heat and moisture away, and a traditional open coil spring unit with a wire edge border.

Why should you choose this mattress?
The main reason to choose this mattress is its extra firm support at a low price. The open coil unit uses hourglass shaped springs joined by a helical wire, which means the whole surface moves as one and gives a solid, traditional feel that many back sleepers with firmer preferences like. Tencel in the fillings helps with heat flow and moisture dissipation, so it should sleep a little cooler than a basic fibre-topped budget mattress. The wire edge border adds structure at the perimeter, useful if you sit on the edge of the bed. Archers Sleep Centre lists free day of choice UK delivery and a 5 year warranty with this mattress.
Key features & layer details
Cover
A durable hand tufted Belgian damask cover with stretch knit fabric. Tufting anchors the fillings in place, which means the surface is less likely to shift or bunch over time.
Fillings
Layers of hypo-allergenic white fibre fillings combined with Tencel, a fibre treated with eucalyptus. These improve heat flow and moisture dissipation, so you should feel a little less clammy on warm nights.
Springs
Open coil springs, with hourglass shaped coils connected into a single unit by a spiral helical wire and a thick rod edge wire around the perimeter. This gives a firm, unified feel across the bed, with reinforced edges, though you will notice more movement transfer than with pocket springs.

Best suited for?
Back sleepers
The hourglass open coil unit moves as one and gives a solid, traditional extra firm feel that suits anyone who wants a flat, supportive surface.
Budget buyers
Sitting at the budget end, it gives you a genuinely firm feel with a hand tufted cover and a wire edge border without spending much.
Allergy sufferers
Hypo-allergenic white fibre fillings in the layers make this a sensible pick if you want to avoid more irritating materials in your bed.
Warm sleepers
Tencel in the fillings helps move heat and moisture away, so you should feel a little less clammy on warm nights than on a basic fibre-topped mattress.
Heavier sleepers
Extra firm open coils joined by a helical wire and a thick rod edge wire give a unified, reinforced feel that heavier bodies are less likely to sink through.
This is an extra firm mattress, so lightweight sleepers and most side sleepers will likely find it too hard on the shoulders and hips. Because the open coil springs move as one unit, couples sensitive to a partner's movement may prefer pocket springs. It also has no memory foam or contouring layer, so avoid it if you want a cradling feel.
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 Highgrove Solar Ortho Dream mattress?
It is rated Extra Firm. That means a solid, supportive surface with little sink, which tends to suit back and front sleepers who like a hard feel. Lightweight side sleepers may find it a little too unyielding at the shoulders and hips.
Does the Highgrove Solar Ortho Dream fit IKEA bed frames?
Yes, it is made in EU sizes, which are the dimensions IKEA frames use. It comes in EU Single, EU Double and EU King, so check your frame's size label rather than assuming standard UK sizing will fit.
How deep is the Highgrove Solar Ortho Dream mattress?
The retailer page is inconsistent here: the description says 25cm while the specifications section says 27cm. If exact depth matters, for fitted sheets or an adjustable frame, it is worth confirming with the retailer before ordering.
What warranty does the Highgrove Solar Ortho Dream come with?
Archers Sleep Centre lists a 5 year warranty, described as a 1 year guarantee plus a 4 year manufacturing warranty. Terms listed on a retailer page may differ elsewhere, so confirm cover at the point of purchase.
Is the Highgrove Solar Ortho Dream good for back pain?
Owner reviews on archerssleepcentre.co.uk suggest so, with several customers saying the extra firm support helped their back pain. Firm support suits some backs and not others, so treat that as encouraging feedback rather than a guarantee.
