At 20cm deep, the Ortho Care Foam sits at the affordable end of the market, which means it suits guest rooms, first flats or anyone replacing a mattress on a tight budget. The top layer is EcoFoam®, made from 100% recycled foam, which moulds gently to your body as it warms up. Beneath that, a firmer reflex foam layer does the supportive work. It's a simple build, but a sensible one for the price, and it comes with a 5-year guarantee.

Why should you choose this mattress?
Value is the main draw here. You get a hypoallergenic, vegan-friendly mattress made in the UK by an NBF-approved manufacturer. The EcoFoam® top layer reacts to your natural warmth, which means it softens slightly where your body needs it while the reflex foam base keeps your spine aligned. It's also naturally dust mite resistant, a genuine plus if allergies disturb your sleep. MattressNextDay offers free next day delivery to almost everywhere across mainland UK, with a small fee for some addresses. There's no in-home trial mentioned, so it's a firmer commitment than some brands ask for, but the 5-year guarantee offers reassurance.

Best suited for?
Budget buyers
The copy places it at the affordable end of the market, with a simple two-layer foam build and a 5-year guarantee for the money.
Guest rooms
A straightforward 20cm foam build at an affordable level suits a spare bed that only gets used now and then.
Allergy sufferers
The EcoFoam® top layer is naturally dust mite resistant and the mattress is hypoallergenic, which helps if allergies disturb your sleep.
Eco-conscious buyers
The comfort layer is made from 100% recycled foam, and the whole mattress is vegan-friendly and made in the UK.
Back sleepers
A firm reflex foam layer gives a medium-firm feel that keeps your spine aligned, while the EcoFoam® softens slightly where your body needs it.
If you prefer a plush, sink-in feel, this is the wrong direction: it's medium-firm and some owners find it firmer than expected. Lightweight side sleepers may find it a little too solid at the shoulder and hip. And if you want pocket springs or a deep luxury build, its simple 20cm foam construction won't satisfy.
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 MattressNextDay Ortho Care Foam mattress?
The brand describes it as a medium-firm feel with orthopaedic support. Bear in mind that at least one owner noted their mattress label said 'firm', and some reviewers found it firmer than expected, so treat it as sitting at the sturdier end of medium-firm.
Is the Ortho Care Foam mattress good for back pain?
It's built with orthopaedic support in mind. The firm reflex foam layer helps align your spine, while the EcoFoam® top moulds to your body for pressure relief. Owner reviews mention improved spinal alignment, although no mattress suits every back, so consider your usual firmness preference too.
What sizes does the Ortho Care Foam mattress come in?
It's available in UK Single, UK Double and UK King. All sizes are 20cm deep.
Does the Ortho Care Foam mattress come with a guarantee?
Yes, it comes with a 5-year guarantee from MattressNextDay. There's no sleep trial mentioned on the product page, so check the retailer's returns policy before you buy if you're unsure about the feel.
Will the Ortho Care Foam mattress make me hot?
It should cope reasonably well. The reflex foam layer is highly breathable, which helps prevent overheating, though all-foam mattresses generally hold a little more warmth than sprung designs. If you're a very hot sleeper, that's worth weighing up.
