Hypnos Luxury Wool Bedstead Medium Firm Mattress

Assessed from the specification published by Mattress Man, captured September 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.

A medium firm feel suits most sleepers, particularly back and combination sleepers who want support without sleeping on a board, although lightweight side sleepers may find it a little too firm for their shoulders and hips. The pocket spring construction responds to each of you separately, which means better motion isolation for couples. It's built as a bedstead mattress, so it's a sensible pairing with a slatted or sprung-edge frame. Yes, the starting price is more than many pocket sprung options, but Hypnos mattresses are made with a reputation for durability that cheaper models rarely match. Mattressman also lists old mattress removal as a service, though the details aren't spelled out on the page.

Back sleepers
The medium firm feel gives support without the flatness of a board, which means your spine is held steadily while you lie on your back.

Combination sleepers
Medium firm tension suits those who change position through the night, giving a supportive feel whether you end up on your back or elsewhere.

Couples
Pocket springs move independently, which means you feel less of your partner's tossing and turning than you would on a traditional open coil.

Heavier sleepers
A medium firm pocket sprung build gives a supportive, traditional feel, so you are less likely to feel you are sinking too far into the mattress.

If you're a lightweight side sleeper, the medium firm tension may feel harder than you'd like against your shoulder. Anyone wanting the contouring hug of memory foam should look elsewhere, as this is a traditional pocket sprung feel. It's also a real investment, so tighter budgets may be better served by simpler pocket spring models.

How firm is the Hypnos Luxury Wool Bedstead mattress?

It's rated medium firm, which suits most back and front sleepers and heavier side sleepers. If you're very light or strongly prefer a soft, sink-in feel, it may sit a touch firmer than you'd like.

Does the Hypnos Luxury Wool Bedstead mattress come with a trial?

Mattressman lists a 60-night sleep trial with this mattress. That's the retailer's own offer rather than a Hypnos guarantee, so if you buy elsewhere, check that seller's terms before you order.

What sizes is the Hypnos Luxury Wool Bedstead mattress available in?

Four UK sizes: Single, Double, King and Super King.

How quickly can the Hypnos Luxury Wool Bedstead mattress be delivered?

Mattressman offers free next day delivery, with a handling time of 0 to 1 day and transit of 1 to 3 days. Old mattress removal is mentioned as a service, though the listing doesn't give details, so it's worth asking before you book.
