Assessed from Silentnight's published specification for this mattress, captured September 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.
Choose this one if you want a simple, honest firm mattress without foam or chemical fire retardant treatments. The open coil springs are interconnected, which means a stable, supportive feel across the whole surface rather than pinpoint contouring. The EcoComfort Fibres in the sleep surface are breathable, so a warm sleeper should stay a little cooler through the night. At £199 for a UK Single it's genuinely affordable, and the 60-night trial gives you time to be sure. Yes, it's a basic construction, but for a growing child who needs firm support, basic done well is often exactly right.
Key Features & what's inside
- Sleep surface. A lightweight fabric surface with Breathable EcoComfort Fibres, which means air can move through as you sleep so you're less likely to overheat. It's also hypoallergenic and naturally resistant to allergens.
- Support system. A traditional open coil spring system with interconnected springs, which means the whole mattress works as one supportive unit. You get a firm, stable feel rather than the cushioned sink of foam.

Who's it NOT for?
It's only available as a UK Single, so couples and anyone wanting a double are out. Adults who prefer a softer, contouring feel may find the firm open coil support a little unforgiving, and at 19cm deep it will feel shallower than a typical adult mattress.

Is the Silentnight Healthy Growth Sleepy Eco mattress firm or soft?
It's firm. Silentnight describes it as firm on its own site, which suits growing children who benefit from steady, even support. Lightweight sleepers who like a softer, more cushioned feel may find it a touch too solid.
Does the Silentnight Sleepy Eco mattress contain foam?
No. Silentnight states it's foam free and free from FR chemical treatments, using EcoComfort Fibres and open coil springs instead. It's also hypoallergenic and naturally resistant to allergens, which is reassuring for sensitive sleepers.
How deep is the Silentnight Healthy Growth Sleepy Eco mattress?
It's 19cm deep. That's slimmer than many adult mattresses, which makes it a practical fit for bunk beds, cabin beds and frames with a safety rail. Standard single fitted sheets should fit without trouble.
Does the Silentnight Sleepy Eco mattress come with a trial and guarantee?
Yes. Silentnight's own site lists a 60-night trial and a 5 year guarantee, with delivery in 14 days. That gives you a couple of months to check the firm feel suits your child before committing.
What sizes does the Silentnight Healthy Growth Sleepy Eco come in?
It's available in one size only, a UK Single, from £199. If you need a double or a small double you'll have to look elsewhere in Silentnight's range or beyond.
