Jay Be Simply Kids Foam Free Sprung Mattress Mattress
The JAY-BE Simply Kids Foam Free Sprung Mattress is a hybrid designed for children, and as the name suggests it's made without foam, which means less of the heat build-up that can bother warm little sleepers.
- Foam-free build for cooler nights

The JAY-BE Simply Kids mattress comes in UK Single, UK Small Double and EU Single, so it covers standard kids' beds as well as European frames. Published details on the construction are thin, so if you like to compare spring counts and depths line by line, you may find the spec sheet a little sparse. For a child's first proper mattress, though, it's a sensible starting point.

Why should you choose this mattress?
The main draw here is the foam-free build. Sprung support without foam layers tends to sleep cooler and, for parents who prefer to avoid foam in a child's bed, that alone may settle the decision. The price is fair too: it sits comfortably within reach for a bed that will likely be outgrown. If you buy through Mattressman, they list free next day delivery and a 60-night trial, which gives you a proper window to see how your child settles on it. Just remember those are Mattressman's own terms, not JAY-BE's, so check what applies if you buy elsewhere.
Key features & layer details
Rebound e-Fibre top layer
A breathable Rebound e-Fibre top layer that adds extra cushioning. It gives your child a softer surface to lie on without using any foam.
High-density e-Fibre insulator
A high-density e-Fibre insulator layer sits between the comfort layer and the springs. Its job is to minimise the feel of the springs, so the surface feels less bumpy for a child.
Medium-firmness spring core
A spring core stated as medium firmness, which spreads support evenly across the whole mattress. That gives a steady base for a growing child, though no overall firmness rating is published for the finished mattress.

Best suited for?
Children
Sized as a kids' mattress in UK Single and UK Small Double, it suits a child's first proper bed without the bulk of an adult mattress.
Warm sleepers
The foam-free sprung build tends to sleep cooler than foam layers, which suits children who get hot overnight.
European bed frames
The EU Single size is offered alongside the UK sizes, which means it fits European kids' frames as well as standard British ones.
Budget buyers
The price sits comfortably within reach for a bed a child will likely outgrow, so it makes sense when you do not want to overspend.
There's no published firmness rating, depth or spring detail, so if you need precise specs, perhaps for a slatted base with strict depth requirements or a child with particular support needs, this makes comparison tricky. It's a children's mattress, so adults wanting a long-term everyday bed should look elsewhere.
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.
