Silentnight 1400 Mirapocket Mattress, Motion Isolation, Firm, Double

The small double mattress is definitely firm and topped with a quilted soft fabric. The mattress arrived 10 days after initial order (as explained at checkout) in a fairly thick plastic that was not pierced and protected the mattress from getting stained or damaged in transit. I can sit on the edge of this mattress and it not dip too much or lose its height. My slipped disc has not given me any pain since sleeping on this mattress. After purchasing at £288 I checked around to see if I could find t cheaper, I could not. In fact it seemed to usually retail circa £350-£450, hence the 5 stars. A correctly described, quality product that was reduced in price and arrived exactly when the seller said. I will update should anything change over medium to long term!

This is indeed a firm mattress, the firmest I've owned, but it is as comfortable as ever I could have expected, given that I bought it for the almost-austere firmness that this high density of pocket springs delivers. It has given me the best nights of sleep and the least joint and back pain on waking that I have had for four years (that being 2/3 of the the time passsed since I had bought my previous retailer-branded pocket-sprung double mattress brand new). I am only 5' 2" tall and obviously old enough to have retired some years ago, so it was disappointing that delivery of the new double-mattress to the required room (an upstairs bedroom ) was not volunteered on the day, although that service is included in the price. I had firmly to ask the seemingly-reluctant 2-person team to do that for me, which they then did quite speedily after one of them had to ask his colleague to get out of their van help him. It seems a pity that the customer (me) has to remove and dispose of any old superseded mattress, there being no option to add this service at a price at check-out. This is the first time that I've bought so heavy an item from a vendor which doesn't offer 'removal and disposal' as an option at a price. I paid my local Council a further approximately 10% of the purchase price of the mattress to do that, after I'd dragged the mattress to the landing's balcony rail, tipped it so that it fell down through the stairwell into the hallway, and dragged it to the front door. Nonetheless, I am very pleased that I bought this mattress.

Very, very firm Mattress. This is definitely for people with back pain issues. It is extremely firm and provides great sleep. This is the best mattress I have bought, and I wish I'd had it sooner.

Having had this mattress for a while, we think we like it. It is firm and seems to be really solidly and well made. Sleeping on it doesn't feel hot at all. Just to comment on a few things other users seem to have problem with: Firmness - It is a firm mattress - I am not sure about the other users experience of this "not being firm enough". So if you'd like to use a 3 star UK hotel mattress as a benchmark, this is about 20% firmer than that and doesn't really give a "bounce" when you jump into the bed. Comparing to the other foam mattress, this is definitely a huge improvement for us. Delivery - it was straight forward to arrange and we are happy with the service - but you do need to watch out for the email as they are not from Amazon, so check your Junk inbox to make sure you get them. The driver was on time, and phoned me a hour beforehand. I told him to deliver this into our flat into a specific place and it was no problem for him. Packaging and cleanness - The mattress did come in in a very dirty package though, so make sure you don't rub against the packaging! the mattress itself was well protected inside. Because the packing was so dusty, when you take it off, you have to be extra careful, as if it touched the mattress (as it was in our case), and the mattress is snow white, it gets stained easily! Handles - finally, yes, the comments on this is correct. This mattress does not have handles on the side, which is a bit annoying as it is a heavy thing to lift! All in all, good buy for us!

Our old Silentnight mattress was over 20 years old, I'd been saying we needed a new one for years but hubby didn't think that we did. I finally convinced him that we did and it's the best thing we've ever bought. We thought that it was because we are getting older that it was difficult to turn over during the night, but on this new mattress we are turning over so much easier. A lot of the pain that I wake up with in the morning was substantially less than it has been for years. We definitely won't be keeping this mattress for 20 years, I'll get my way next time I say we need a new mattress. We had thought that it came in a box with the air removed and that we would have to wait for it to plump up for 24 hours, but that isn't the case, it comes ready to use, so we didn't have to wait to use it, which was great. It wasn't delivered to our bedroom, just to the front door, so it was a good job that my son was home at the time to help hubby get it upstairs, after removing the old one, of course. The cat was very upset and confused. We left it uncovered until bedtime before we put the clean sheets on it, but I don't know if that was necessary or not.

So far so good! Night two of sleeping on the mattress and it's lush. Partner is on the heaver side and I don't feel him moving or sitting on th edge of the bed so definitely a firm mattress. I haven't woken up with a back ache for the past two days like I used too with my old medium mattress so that's also saying something. All round a great mattress and well worth th full price. Although we were lucky enough to get it in the BF sales

A high quality firm mattress with a soft layer on the top. It's very comfortable and has great back support. It's not squishy or springy at all. Edge support is fantastic. No squeaking. Very well packaged and arrived on time. I did give 5 stars for this mattress but have dropped it down to 3 as I've decided to return it. After 3 weeks of sleeping on it I found it very hard and too firm. Woke up with back ache most mornings.

I'm a big fan of this mattress, the quality that we got for the price paid is excellent. delivery was smooth and the mattress is very comfortable, It has definitely convinced me that firm mattresses are the way to go.
