If your child sleeps warm, this is a strong candidate: the knitted cover and e-Fibre layers are designed for airflow and moisture regulation, so heat is less likely to build up under a duvet. The foam-free, all natural materials construction, as listed, may also appeal if you'd rather avoid synthetic foams in a child's bed, and the listing states it's 100% recyclable. Pocket springs at this price point are a quiet plus, giving proper adaptive support rather than a flat block of filling. Mattress Online lists a 100-night trial and a 5 year guarantee, and offers free delivery to most UK locations with next day delivery available. Just note those terms are the retailer's, not Jay-Be's.
Key Features & what's inside
- Knitted cover. A soft knitted finish that adds cosiness and warmth, which means the surface feels gentle rather than scratchy against skin. It also enhances airflow and breathability.
- e-Fibre comfort layers. Breathable fibre layers that regulate temperature and moisture, so a warm sleeper is less likely to overheat. This is where the mattress gets its cushioning without using foam.
- Deep e-Pocket springs. Individual springs sit in their own cloth pockets, which means each one responds separately to movement. That gives support tailored to how and where your child lies.
- 3D spacer base layer. A resilient yet cushioning core that spreads weight evenly across the mattress surface. It underpins the springs and helps the whole mattress support consistently edge to edge.

Who's it NOT for?
It comes in UK Single only, so it's no use for a double or small double bed frame. At 18cm it's slightly shallower than an adult mattress, fine for children but less suited to a spare room that hosts grown-up guests. And if you want a flippable, two-sided design, this is single-sided.

How firm is the Jay-Be QUEST Q2 mattress?
It's a medium feel. That sits in the comfortable middle ground for most children, with enough give for lighter bodies while the pocket springs keep the spine supported. Heavier teens who prefer a firmer surface may find it a little soft.
Is the Jay-Be QUEST Q2 foam free?
Yes. The retailer listing states it's foam free and made with all natural materials, using e-Fibre comfort layers instead of foam. The listing also describes it as 100% recyclable and it's hypoallergenic, which can help if your child has allergies.
Does the Jay-Be QUEST Q2 come with a trial and guarantee?
Mattress Online lists a 100-night trial and a 5 year guarantee. These are the retailer's own terms rather than Jay-Be's, so if you buy elsewhere, check that seller's trial and guarantee before ordering.
How deep is the Jay-Be QUEST Q2 mattress?
It's 18cm deep. That's shallower than a typical adult mattress but well suited to children's beds, bunk beds and mid-sleepers, where a lower profile keeps safety rails at a useful height. Standard UK Single fitted sheets should fit without trouble.
Does the Jay-Be QUEST Q2 need turning or flipping?
No flipping is needed, as it's a single-sided design. It arrives rolled up for easier delivery, and Mattress Online offers free delivery to most UK locations, with room-of-choice delivery for £20.00 and old mattress recycling for £35.00.
