Assessed from Sleep Story's published specification for this mattress, captured September 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.
This mattress makes sense if temperature is your main worry. The VaporTech cover is designed to increase cooling evaporation as your body warms, and the graphite-infused foam beneath it draws heat away, which means you should feel noticeably less clammy than on a plain memory foam bed. Allergy sufferers get something too: the PureGuard treatment is stated to cut house dust mite allergens by up to 96.6%, and the mattress carries a hypoallergenic certification. The medium firmness suits most sleeping positions, although very heavy sleepers or committed stomach sleepers may want something firmer. Delivery is within 14 days, with a £39 premium delivery option for mattresses.
Key Features & what's inside
- Cover. The Solace cover combines three technologies: VaporTech, which automatically increases cooling evaporation as your body gets warmer, and Probiotic PureGuard, which cuts house dust mite allergens by up to 96.6%. Elastotech advanced fibre adds plush comfort with resilient support, and it's fully recyclable.
- Fillings. CopperTech copper-infused foam helps create a cleaner, fresher sleep environment, while GraphiteTech graphite-infused foam draws excess heat away from your body. Beneath these, CoreLux combines cushioning foam and supportive foam for an adaptable sleep surface.
- Springs. The Neo Coil pocket spring system provides a responsive, contouring feel, and the Micro Neo Plus mini spring layer enhances pressure relief and weight distribution. Edgelock edge support is strong yet flexible, which means you can sleep right up to the sides without feeling like you might roll off.

Who's it NOT for?
If you prefer a distinctly firm or distinctly soft feel, this medium hybrid sits in the middle and may disappoint at either extreme. It's also single-sided, so you can rotate it monthly but never flip it, which some traditionalists dislike. Budget shoppers should look elsewhere: even the smallest size starts at £949.

How many springs does the Sleep Story PlushTech have?
In the king size, 3,500 springs in total: 500 full-size pocket springs and 3,000 mini pocket springs. The mini springs sit as a separate layer to enhance pressure relief and weight distribution. Smaller sizes will contain fewer springs, so check the count for the size you're buying.
Is the Sleep Story PlushTech good for hot sleepers?
Cooling is one of its strengths. The VaporTech cover increases cooling evaporation as your body warms, and the graphite-infused GraphiteTech foam draws excess heat away from you. If you regularly overheat at night, this is one of the more thoughtfully designed options in that respect.
Do you need to flip the Sleep Story PlushTech mattress?
No, and you shouldn't. It's a single-sided mattress, so it should be rotated monthly, head to toe, but never turned over. Rotating helps the fillings settle evenly across the sleep surface.
What guarantee comes with the Sleep Story PlushTech?
The brand page lists a 20-year guarantee, which is longer than most brands offer. As with any guarantee, check the terms for what's covered, as normal settlement of fillings is usually treated differently from a genuine fault.
How firm is the Sleep Story PlushTech mattress?
It's rated medium. That tends to suit back sleepers and most side sleepers, giving enough give at the shoulders and hips while keeping the spine supported. Lighter sleepers should still sink in comfortably, although those who like a very firm surface may find it a little soft.
