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.

Customers seem to love it, despite its budget components.

Very reasonable price point gives it a great entry into the market.

Based off a similar model from Dreams previously that performed well.

All popular UK sizes available and in stock with fairly fast lead times.

Open coil springs are not my personal favourite, although perform well enough in most circumstances.

Some customers reported the tension as being firmer than expected, although this typically comes down to individual customer perspective.

Why our sleep experts loved it

From the revered Dreams Workshop emerges a new gem in the realm of sleep comfort: the Simmonds Traditional Spring Mattress. As part of the brand's fresh budget range, the Simmonds delivers on quality and value without compromising on the promise of a restful night. Encased in its resilient core lies an array of open coil traditional springs, meticulously crafted to offer an optimal blend of support and comfort. This is not just any regular budget mattress - it is an upgraded iteration of the well-loved Brooke model. Taking all the best elements of its predecessor and enhancing them with a premium damask cover, the product is a testament to the Dreams Workshop's commitment to accessible luxury in sleep solutions.

Who it will suit?

Appealing to an extensive array of sleepers, the Simmonds Traditional Spring Mattress is the epitome of a one-size-fits-most solution in sleep comfort. Thanks to its medium comfort support, it adapts to various sleeping positions with finesse - a trait that many mattresses cannot boast. Regardless of whether you are a back, side, or stomach sleeper, the mattress extends a warm and inviting sleep surface. An additional layer of polyester in the mattress offers numerous benefits for sleep, including breathability and durability, while also maintaining an optimal level of firmness that gently cradles your body contours for a restful sleep.

Who will it not suit?

While the bed has wide appeal, its open coil traditional spring support might offer less than optimal edge support. Moreover, the mattress might not be ideal for heavier individuals who might require a higher quality spring system to adequately support their weight.

Firmness

The Simmonds mattress offers medium tension, providing a balance between comfort and support. This level of firmness makes it suitable for most sleepers, irrespective of their preferred sleeping position.

Comfort Layer

The comfort layer of the bed is filled with polyester. This material offers a number of benefits such as being resistant to moisture, easy to clean, and resilient. It also doesn't wrinkle easily, ensuring your mattress looks and feels good over time. This layer adds to the overall comfort of the mattress, contributing to a restful night's sleep.

Support Layer

The product features traditional open coil springs in its base layer. These springs are affordable and offer good support for the price. What is more, the springs are designed to distribute weight evenly across the mattress, providing adequate support and reducing pressure point discomfort.

Edge Support

The edge support for this mattress is not the best, due to its open coil spring design. However, for a mattress at this price point, the overall performance is reasonable.

What customers thought

The Simmonds Traditional Spring Mattress has received generally positive reviews from customers. Many buyers praise the mattress's comfort and quality, with some stating it offers excellent value for money. Several customers have also noted improved sleep quality and back pain relief. However, some customers have pointed out the mattress's lack of handles for rotation and a slightly harder feel than expected.

Price

This traditional spring mattress comes with a very affordable price tag, costing under £200 for a double size. This price point makes it an excellent choice for budget-conscious buyers seeking quality and comfort.

Final thoughts

The Dreams Workshop Simmonds Traditional Spring Mattress represents a solid choice for those on a strict budget who don't want to compromise too much on comfort and support. Its medium comfort grade makes it a good option for various sleeping positions, and the polyester filling adds to its overall comfort keeping you separated from the springs underneath. While it may lack in certain areas, such as edge support and roll together prevention, its affordability, positive customer reviews, and overall quality make it a worthy consideration for your next mattress purchase.

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

  • 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

I bought this for my 13 year old son and I'm so happy that I did. I absolutely loath any kind of shopping, so the thought of going to endless bed shops looking for this mattress was not something to look forward to. We chose Dreams first and I'm so pleased that we did, from the friendly greeting to the very covid aware processes we were immediately put at ease. The care and attention afforded to us for a fairly small value purchase (like all teenagers my son is growing like a weed so it not be long before he is in a bigger bed) was pleasant surprise and the bed fitting was a brilliant idea. We followed the chaps advice and my son was happy with the mattress he chose, after a swift and very courteous and covid conscious delivery and two week of use my son is having the best nights sleep ever! The only mistake we made was not buying the mattress protector offer with the additional warranty which is a genuinely good deal and not a gimmicky add on (my cynicism works against me sometimes). Well done Dreams!

Ordered a medium mattress, the delivery team were very polite and cant be faulted, it came in a plastic sheet and was in great condition. I ordered a fairly standard basic mattress though in the hope it could be delivered quickly, it took 4 weeks. We were able to wait, although my son did have to sleep on a sofa bed in that time (he loved it, but certainly didnt look comfortable to me). This mattress is single sided, you cant flip it. Because of this it seemed a little week to take adult weight standing on it, not like my other dreams mattresses. However it shouldn't be stood upon so should last at the bottom of my sons new bunk bed. Overall, would recommend, was an easy ordering experience, just a shame on the demand / delay.

Listen right, you aren't spending a whole lot of money don't expect miracles. It's a mattress, you lay on it and you fall asleep. If at any point in your life you've decided you're a delicate flower; and can't sleep on anything except for a cloud floating through the sky, with your delicate head resting on plump marshmallows, then this ain't the mattress for you. If however you're a normal person who shuts their eyes and goes to sleep then oh baby have I got a sweet deal on a mattress here for you. Better than the literal floor which I can also fall asleep on 5*

Bought this mattress for 97 year old mother wh had a hip replacement following a fall. We wanted her to enjoy easier access to bed and a more gentle comfortable nights sleep. One of the more slim mattresses making it easier for her to get on to and off bed but this in no way compromises comfort. She has used two weeks now since leaving hospital and is enjoying comfortable deep sleeps critical for major surgery recovery. Delighted with this product!

I cant recommend Dreams enough for their service and goods they provide. We ordered a mattress through them, and from the day of order right the way through to delivery, Dreams stayed in constant contact with regular emails and texts updating me on when my delivery would arrive. The mattress is fantastic and super comfortable which is paramount for me after having multiple back operations. Again, great company and would highly recommend

We visited a showroom in Edinburgh to let our 4-year-old see the beds and bounce on the mattresses. The staff were very helpful but not pushy or in-your-face, just right. We bought our daughter's choice of mattress and she loves it. It's soft, comfortable and bouncy. I wouldn't choose such a soft one for myself but it's perfect for a preschooler. The quality looks good. The delivery guy was exceedingly polite and helpful.

I bought a new mattress for my son as his one was a little worse for wear. I had already popped into my local dreams store to have a look at mattresses for myself as I have back problems. So I knew I wanted to get a proper mattress for my son one that will last him many years. He absolutely loves his new mattress and sleeps a lot better than he use too. So thank you dreams am very happy with my purchase.

Excellent mattress. Great value for the money. Easily maneuvered to regularly swivel (non turning) to even out wear. The Damask cover was a nice touch which I would have expected on a much more expensive mattress. Bought for my elderly mum who needed a good support mattress without it being too firm and this medium firm suits her fine. Would recommend. The delivery men were also excellent.

My god, when i aired out the matress and put it on my bed base i thought it was gonna be too stiff on the springs once I got a sheet on it for that night. Total mind blow instead. It was like floating on clouds while sleeping then once i put the topper on it a night later. I literally slept like the dead and nothing could wake me up at all, I even slept through my alarms for work. Oops

We were looking for a single mattress for our spare room and the process could not have been easier. We made our choice and then received very prompt and friendly service from the assistant who made the process so very quick and efficient for us. Delivery was equally quick and efficient with the old mattress removed and new mattress installed. We are delighted with our purchase.

I bought this when shopping for a mattress for a guest bed and I wasn't looking to spend a fortune. When some renovations forced me to move out of the main bedroom and use this bed I was pleasantly surprised with the comfort level and support. I had a great couple of nights sleep and if you are looking for a reasonably priced confortable mattress I recommend considering this out

This mattress provides the perfect amount of support and has a good amount of fillings to give it a soft comfortable surface. The only thing I dont like is that it is no turn, meaning you can only sleep on the one side of the mattress. This will likely shorten its lifespan a little but I am very happy with this mattress and can see it lasting me many a years.

Now I fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow because the mattress is so comfy!

This is my 3rd time buying beds and mattresses from Dreams and they have always arrived on time and delivered the right items. They are good value for money.

Great mattress, Its providing a great nights sleep. It all seems well made and quality. I think mattress purchasing can be overwhelming, but you get what you pay for, so In my opinion its not worth buying inferior quality mattress as your quality of sleep has a direct effect on your physical and mental health.

I bought this mattress for my teenage son who had and foam mattress previously. I was worried about the springs and whether he'd feel them since it wasn't pocket sprung but he has been waking refreshed and said it was the best night's sleep he has had in ages! Now thinking of buying the double version for me.

Bought 2 single traditionally sprung mattresses for grandchildrens beds. As they are only 10 and very light, there was no need for expensive million coil pocket springs or anti roll together technology. These are just comfortable medium sprung mattresses at a very good price. I am sure will last for years.

Good quality mattress for the price. It has the right level of firmness for a side sleeper. You can spend much more on a mattress but I personally don't think the difference in price between this and more expensive mattresses is is reflected in the feel of the mattress, but maybe it won't last as long.

Had the mattress a month now and sleeping through the night. Very comfortable even in hot weather, stiff back in the morning gone. Not expensive but better than other more costly mattresses. Thanks Dreams.

We bought this mattress for our spare room. I would say it is comfy enough, but would benefit from a mattress topper to give it a little more padding and cosines. It is a good price for what it is though.

Excellent service and prompt delivery. New mattress a great improvement on the old one! The only niggle was that we didn't get our free mattress protector! We had one anyway, so it didn't really matter!

It's been a while since I've slept on a mattress with medium firmness so it took me a few sleeps to get used to it. It's definitely a comfortable mattress as long as you regularly turn it around

Questions and Answers About The Dreams Workshop Simmonds Traditional Spring Mattress

Prospective customers had the following questions about the product

Josh5
I'm a hot sleeper. Will this mattress make me feel like I'm in a sauna?

Answer: Ah, the eternal quest for a cool night's sleep! While the Simmonds Traditional Spring Mattress doesn't specifically mention cooling technology, its medium comfort grade and traditional springs do offer good airflow. However, if you're particularly sensitive to heat, you might want to consider adding a cooling mattress topper for that extra chill factor.

I've got a fur baby who loves to cuddle. Is this mattress pet-friendly?

Answer: Who can resist cuddling with their fur baby, right? The mattress features a soft-touch damask cover that's fairly durable. However, it's not specifically designed to be pet-resistant. You might want to use a mattress protector to safeguard against any pet-related incidents.

I'm a bit of a clean freak. How do I keep this mattress spick and span?

Answer: Keeping things clean, I like your style! While the mattress itself isn't machine washable, you can easily spot clean the damask cover with a mild detergent. For deeper cleaning, consider using a mattress protector that you can throw in the wash.

Is the Brooke traditional spring mattress (medium firmness) recommended for people with back/shoulder pain (all sleeping positions)? Also, is it delivered flat or rolled? Many thanks!

Answer: The Brooke mattress is a medium comfort grade, unfortunately we cannot advise if this would be suitable for specific problems areas, we would advise you to visit a store and use the SleepMatch machine as this can help with problem areas but would require more information from you.This mattress is delivered flat.
