Pros & Cons

Here we collect tests, guides and product reviews so that you can create a picture of what others think about the product. This analysis and review is based on my experience and a decade of industry insight.

Readily available with somewhat fast delivery times.

Popular option for those on a limited budget who still need a good all-rounder that will suit back, side and stomach sleepers.

Ideal for kids and teenagers who do not require as much support and resistance while they sleep due to a lower body weight.

Available with a long sleep trial that should appeal to those who are unsure.

I personally prefer pocket spring support, it tends to perform better over a longer period, albeit costs quite a bit more.

Lead time increases for some of the less-popular variants.

Quite a new product so reviews are limited at time of writing, although this configuration is one we have seen plenty before and for the price, should perform within expectations.

Why our sleep experts loved it

Today we’re taking a closer eye to the Dreams Workshop Braybrook Combination Mattress, a delightful budget-friendly option that offers a harmonious blend of comfort and support for various types of sleepers. In this thorough analysis, we'll delve into the many facets of this mattress, such as its construction, materials, comfort and whatever else crops up along the way. We'll also address any additional questions customers may have, let’s dive in.

Construction and Materials

The charming Braybrook Combination Mattress boasts a classic open coil spring system, comprising 288 interconnected springs. While not as luxurious as pocket springs, open coil springs are a cost-effective alternative that still delivers ample support. Adding to the mattress's allure is a layer of memory foam that gracefully conforms to your body shape, offering a gentle sinking sensation despite its modest depth. Finally, a soft touch knitted cover crowns the mattress, providing breathability and supportive tufts that keep the fillings securely in place.

Comfort and Support

With a medium comfort grade, the Braybrook mattress caters to a wide range of sleep positions, offering versatile support. Side sleepers will find themselves particularly smitten with its construction, as the memory foam layer lovingly cradles the body, alleviating pressure on hips and shoulders. However, back and stomach sleepers need not feel left out, as the open coil springs provide sufficient support for proper spinal alignment.

Temperature Regulation

The soft touch knitted cover, coupled with the traditional tufts, promotes breathability, allowing for improved air circulation and temperature regulation. While the memory foam layer may retain a bit of warmth, the mattress's overall design ensures sleepers stay cool and cosy throughout the night.

Durability and Longevity

The Braybrook Combination Mattress is single-sided, which simplifies maintenance but may slightly affect its durability. Nevertheless, the mattress comes with a 100-Night Comfort Guarantee and a 1-year guarantee, showcasing the manufacturer's faith in its quality. I typically prefer two sided mattresses which allow for twice the surface area however this does come with an increased cost which would otherwise push the product out of budget.

Recommendations

On pricing, the Braybrook Combination Mattress is an economical choice that strikes a balance between comfort and support, making it a dream come true for those on a tight budget. Exclusively available at Dreams, this mattress is proudly made in the UK.
The Dreams Workshop Braybrook Combination Mattress is a perfect match for side sleepers and combination sleepers who desire both support and comfort. However, those who prefer a firmer sleeping surface or have specific needs regarding pressure relief or motion isolation may want to explore other options. All in all, this mattress delivers excellent value for its price, making it a fabulous choice for those seeking an affordable, comfortable, and supportive sleep solution.

Suitability

*Assuming average weight, suitability will vary dependant on body type, use the quiz above for a more tailored guide.
  • Back Sleepers
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • The amount of support offered from a mattress will vary depending on the firmness of the tension and the type of support layer used. Based on a person of average build.
  • Side Sleepers
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • If you sleep on your side you typically need a supportive tension that is not too firm, nor too soft. This is because your hips and shoulders need adequate sinkage.
  • Stomach Sleepers
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Stomach sleepers need a reasonable amount of tension in the base support layer to adequately offer body contouring and help prevent aches and pains. Results will vary based on your build.

Performance

  • Breathability
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Mattresses that feature breathable materials help promote airflow and keep you cool making for a more hygienic night's sleep.
  • Turning on mattress
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Certain materials like memory foam can make it difficult to move about on the mattress while you toss and turn. Same too for pillow tops which can create a cloud like sensation which can make manoeuvrability challenging.
  • Stability
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Depending on the type of support layer in place can have an impact on stability, edge to edge support and roll together prevention. Pocket springs of a firmer tension will have better stability than open coil soft tension, for example.

Odour

  • Initial Odour
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Materials in mattresses, particularly memory foam and rolled bed-in-a-box mattresses can have an initial odour, this is typically short term and reduces considerably within 24 hours.
  • Long Standing Odour
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Certain materials inside different mattresses can produce a small odour. Typically this is short term rather than long standing but there are minor exceptions.

Brand Rating

  • Overall Brand Rating
    ★★★★★

This bed is super snug thanks to its cosy knitted cover, which is finished with a fun design - though you dont see it often, I thought this was a really lovely touch. I chose this mattress for the memory foam, and since making the switch Ive slept soundly with no aches and pains! I cant fault the quality craftsmanship or super friendly delivery team, plus I love that the mattress was handmade in the UK. Overall this is a great choice for comfort and support, all at a reasonable price. Very pleased!

The mattress was delivered on time, in fact 10 minutes early than the start of the timescale given. Very friendly chaps delivered the mattress, nothing too much trouble. The mattress was for my daughter who's 12 and very picky about mattresses, we have had problems before about them being too hard, but this one was perfect and she was very happy!

I was looking to purchase a mattress for my 9 year old . We went to Dreams first and bounced on a few mattresses ,this one came out top. We looked in a second shop but nothing else was quite the same. My child has described this mattress as bouncy, squishy and super comfy . An excellent purchase.

The knitted cover top is so soft feels like you're lying on a cloud. It has just enough softness and support to help with my back pain. I would buy this again and have recommended this one to others already. Great value for the price but not compromising on the comfort, lovely mattress.

Bought this mattress for my son. He thinks it's like sleeping on a 'cloud'. Bit dramatic but obviously gets the thumbs up for a reasonably priced mattress. Sale went smoothly and it was delivered on the date requested. First class service, what more can you ask for.

A medium firmness mattress that is good value for money if you change your mattress more regularly than the usual 6 years or so. The whole purchase was easy including the delivery and recycling of the old mattress.

Questions and Answers About The Dreams Workshop Braybrook Combination Mattress

Prospective customers had the following questions about the product

Image of the post author
EvaKay
What type of sleeper is this mattress most suitable for?

Answer: The mattress offers a medium comfort grade, which is typically suitable for all sleeping positions. However, my assessment is that it may be more suitable for side sleepers. Individuals of average weight can find comfort on this mattress regardless of their preferred sleep position. For back sleepers seeking greater contouring support, considering a slightly firmer product may be beneficial.

Fayyaz
Have there been any negative reviews or feedback on This product?

Answer: While the majority of feedback has been positive, some customers felt the mattress was harder than expected based on their in-store trials. One customer mentioned noticeable dips forming in the mattress within days. These issues appear to be infrequent, but are worth considering if you prefer a softer mattress or are concerned about the longevity of the mattress's comfort levels.

What materials contribute to the comfort and support of the BR07 M?

Answer: This mattress utilises open springs accompanied with a layer of memory foam which can mould to the shape of your body, offering personalised support. Furthermore, the outer cover is soft touch and knitted for a cosy feel. Traditional tufts help keep the fillings in place to maintain the mattress's structure and the comfort it offers. Thank you, Katie.
