Why our sleep experts loved it

In our relentless quest for quality sleep, we are perpetually on the lookout for products that not only comfort us aesthetically but supremely cater to our delicate bodily needs. Today, I'm thrilled to discuss one such product that has managed to stir a lot of curiosity and already has been fetching some fabulous first-hand feedback. Let's delve deep into the world of the Flaxby Masters Guild 10950 Pocket Sprung Mattress, a unique piece of sleep engineering that promises superior orthopaedic support and a harmony of natural fillings. It is an honestly handmade masterpiece right from the heart of the United Kingdom, courtesy of Harrison Spinks.

How we tested

Performing a thorough analysis of any mattress involves observing its physical features, dabbling in its specifications and of course, spending enough hours resting on it. In our case, we made sure to rotate the Flaxby Masters Guild 10950 Pocket Sprung Mattress regularly. We were particularly observant about its targeted support and climate adaptability, given its unique blend of fillings and sophisticated technology.

Design and Features

The Flaxby Masters Guild 10950 Pocket Sprung carries a stunning combination of responsive spring types and natural layers. What catches one's immediate attention is the futuristic inclusion of recyclable Cortec™ pocket springs meshed with exclusive DNAir springs. This brilliant arrangement is not only eco-friendly but is also married with unique zoned technology that becomes a customised response system for your body's needs, particularly targeting the shoulders, lower back, and hips. To add to the breathability and freshness of the mattress, the springs are delicately housed inside a ventilated fabric.

In addition to its fascinating spring system, the Flaxby Masters Guild 10950 Pocket Sprung Mattress also offers the richness of all-natural fillings, including British wool and cotton for a responsive feel. These fillings not only skyrocket your comfort but also provide a fantastic solution for body temperature regulation, ensuring an all-year-round pleasant sleep.

Mattress comfort

This mattress promises to serve as a magic carpet, hovering between the realms of firm and very firm. For those who fancier a harder, denser support layer, the Flaxby Masters Guild 10950 Pocket Sprung Mattress can be a haven. While on one hand, the firmness ensures your body is rightly supported; the natural filling layers on the other hand freely invite you to immerse in a kind of comfort that snugly holds you through the night. Quite ingenious!

Suitability

Given the firm to very firm range of comfort, the Flaxby Masters Guild 10950 Pocket Sprung Mattress can be a fabulous pick for anyone dealing with back pain or muscle strains. The orthopaedic support level that this mattress warrants could be instrumental in providing relief from physical discomfort during sleep. As for the environmentalists at heart, the use of fully recyclable Cortec™ springs and natural fillings would offer a sense of sustainable luxury.

What customers thought

There's a striking consensus among customers about the impressive firmness of the mattress, translating into successful elimination of back pain issues. More affection is showered upon the deep layers of natural fillings that have shown remarkable efficacy in regulating sleep climate while keeping away any chemical interaction. The handmade quality and formidable durability have been other talking points among the initial users of this mattress. The breathability and adaptability throughout the year make sleep a much more soothing and regenerative experience, something that we passionately yearn for.

The verdict

Is the Flaxby Masters Guild 10950 Pocket Sprung Mattress worth the investment? Well, if you are someone who relishes a firm to very firm support layer and has faith in the wonders of natural fillings, this could be a front runner for you. However, there could be other competitors at similar price points, so it would be wise to compare before initialization. The substantial number of micro springs may not heavily impact the feel and tension of the mattress, but the quality, nonetheless, is unquestionable. Do keep in mind the somewhat long lead time for the product. In any case, with the 100-Night Comfort Guarantee, there's ample room to experiment and decide if this mattress indeed is the sleep partner you have been longing for.

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.

Got this mattress a couple months back, and I've been sleeping like a baby ever since. Really admire the firm comfort grade for solid support. The combo of wool, cotton, and Cortec springs? Pure brilliance It's like they're hugging my back. Just gotta remember to rotate this baby regularly.

Just got the Flaxby Masters Guild 10950 Mattress and I'm ridiculously pleased. This bad boy is firm but the layers of micro springs add a level of cushion that is just right. It's like sleeping on a supportive cloud. The fact it's handmade in the UK is a nice touch too.

Firm yet forgiving, this Flaxby Masters Guild mattress really delivered on orthopaedic support, perfect for a back sleeper like me. But rotating it regularly - that's a bit of a hassle for one person. Still, quality sleep is priceless.
