The Camellia is rated medium, sits 26cm deep and comes in four UK sizes. The fillings are 100% polyester soft white fibres, so it's hypoallergenic and vegan friendly, and it's made in the UK by an NBF-approved manufacturer. At an affordable starting price you're getting a simple construction rather than layers of foam or zoned support. If you want a straightforward sprung mattress for a spare room, a first flat or a tight budget, it's a sensible shout. It comes with free next day delivery to mainland UK, though some addresses may incur a small fee.

Why should you choose this mattress?
The main draw here is value. You get a 26cm deep mattress with a soft knitted cover and durable polyester fibre fillings. The open coil springs are made from high-tensile steel joined in a lattice, which means the whole surface responds together, giving a supportive, slightly springy feel that many people who like a traditional mattress prefer. It carries a medium firmness rating, which suits most sleeping positions without committing you to anything extreme. Certifications are reassuring for the price: hypoallergenic, vegan friendly, fire resistant to the BS7177: 2008 standard, and made in the UK. Yes, the guarantee is only 1 year, but at an affordable starting price the risk is modest.
Key features & layer details
Soft Knitted Cover
A highly breathable knitted cover that's soft to the touch, which means the sleep surface feels more luxurious than the price suggests. Breathability here helps air move away from your body through the night.
Soft White Fibres
These fillings are made from 100% polyester, chosen for good recovery and durability. In practice that means the comfort layer should spring back into shape rather than developing dips early on.
Open Coil Springs
Interlaced coils of high-tensile steel joined together in a lattice, giving broad, connected support across the whole mattress. Because the coils are linked, you'll feel a bit more movement transfer than with pocket springs, but also that classic sprung bounce.

Best suited for?
Budget buyers
The copy calls the starting price affordable and the construction simple, so you get a 26cm deep sprung mattress without paying for extra foam layers.
Guest rooms
A straightforward sprung build with a medium feel suits a spare room, because most visitors should find it comfortable whatever their sleeping position.
Allergy sufferers
The fillings are 100% polyester fibres and the mattress is rated hypoallergenic, which makes it a sensible pick if you want to avoid natural fillings.
Eco-conscious buyers
It is vegan friendly with polyester fibre fillings, and it is made in the UK by an NBF-approved manufacturer, which keeps the supply chain close to home.
Combination sleepers
Linked open coil springs respond together across the whole surface, giving a springy medium feel that suits moving between positions through the night.
Couples who are easily disturbed by a partner's movement, since open coil springs transfer motion more than pocket springs. Anyone wanting a plush, cushioned surface may also find it firmer than the medium label suggests, based on some owner feedback. And if a long guarantee matters to you, 1 year is short.
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.
