The Nectar Classic Hybrid has what Nectar describes as a supportive and breathable feel, and the springs should help air move through the mattress better than an all-foam design. It sits at the affordable end for a hybrid. One thing to know: the 15cm figure refers to the spring layer only, and Nectar's page doesn't state the total mattress depth. If overall height matters to you, perhaps for fitted sheets or an adjustable base, check before you buy.

Assessed from Nectar's published specification for this mattress, captured September 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.
Why should you choose this mattress?
This is a sensible pick if you want the hug of memory foam without the heat build-up that pure foam mattresses can suffer from. The pocket springs move independently of each other, which means less motion transfer when a partner shifts in the night, and better airflow through the core. It's a genuinely budget-friendly way into hybrid comfort, and it comes in five UK sizes from Single to Super King. The spec on Nectar's page is a little thin: no spring count is given and the total depth isn't stated. But if you're after simple, supportive comfort at a low price, there's appeal here.
Key features & layer details
Memory foam
A layer of memory foam that contours to your body, which means pressure points like hips and shoulders get cushioned rather than pushed against. Nectar highlights this as the pressure-relieving comfort layer.
Pocket springs
A base of 15cm pocket springs, each moving independently, which means support adapts to where your weight sits and your partner's movements are less noticeable. Springs also let air circulate, helping the mattress sleep cooler.

Best suited for?
Warm sleepers
Pocket springs let air circulate through the core, which means the mattress should sleep cooler than an all-foam design.
Couples
Each pocket spring moves independently, which means less motion transfer when a partner shifts in the night.
Budget buyers
Sitting at the affordable end for a hybrid, it gives you memory foam comfort with a sprung base without a big outlay.
Side sleepers
The memory foam comfort layer contours to the body, which means hips and shoulders are cushioned rather than pushed against.
If you need to know the exact overall height or firmness rating before buying, the sparse spec here may frustrate you: total depth isn't stated. Sleepers who dislike the sink-in feel of memory foam, or who want a detailed spring count for heavier body support, may prefer a more fully specified hybrid.
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 deep is the Nectar Classic Hybrid mattress?
Nectar's product page states a 15cm depth, but this refers to the pocket spring layer only, not the full mattress. The total depth including the memory foam layer isn't stated, so it's worth checking with the retailer if overall height matters for your bed frame or bedding.
What is the Nectar Classic Hybrid made of?
It has two main components: a memory foam comfort layer on top for pressure relief, and a base of 15cm pocket springs for support and airflow. Nectar describes the resulting feel as supportive and breathable.
How much does the Nectar Classic Hybrid cost?
It depends on the size you choose, and the price table on this page shows the current price for each size. It's available in UK Single, Small Double, Double, King and Super King.
Is the Nectar Classic Hybrid good for hot sleepers?
It should fare better than an all-foam mattress. Nectar describes the feel as breathable, and the pocket spring base allows air to move through the core rather than trapping heat. Memory foam on top can still hold some warmth, so very hot sleepers may want to weigh that up.
