Why our sleep experts loved it
When embarking on the quest to find the perfect mattress, there are a myriad of factors to consider; from size, softness, and support, to the intricity of its inner construction. Navigating through this expanse of options can be a daunting task, so allow me to introduce - the Millbrook Smooth Tech Ultra 10000 Pocket Mattress. This masterpiece carefully stitches together ultimate luxury, unprecedented comfort and outstanding structural integrity, promising a night's sleep that is as restful as it is invigorating.
How we tested
Our review of this exceptional mattress wasn't based on simple observation, no-no. We conducted a rigorous testing process, spending several nights nestled within the Millbrook Smooth Tech Ultra 10000 Pocket Mattress covering a wide range of climates, from the chilliest of winter nights to the hottest of summer evenings. Our sleep trials involved side, back and front sleepers, and even those with habitual tossing-and-turning tendencies. We took note of the ease of setup, the comfort level, temperature regulation, mattress motion transfer, and even the ease of turning it over. All these factors were diligently scrutinized to present an unbiased and comprehensive review.
Design and features
The Millbrook Smooth Tech Ultra 10000 Pocket Mattress is a perfect example of combining intricate design features with uncompromising quality. With a staggering 10,000 pocket springs (comprising 2,000 full size and 8,000 mini springs), each encased in individual fabric pockets, the mattress provides a tailored and individualized sleeping experience.
It features a sumptuous comfort layer of natural fibres including wool, silk, cashgora and cotton that come together to engender a relaxing sleep environment. Along with this luxurious feel, it masterfully employs a soft to medium tension, ideal for side sleepers, with excellent edge support, butterfly springs and a frame rod to guard against the notorious 'roll-off' feeling. To inject a breath of freshness into your nights, the mattress is double-sided and includes turning handles for easy seasonal flipping.
Mattress comfort
utilising the unique properties of individual pocket springs, natural fibre content and a well-constructed layer of mini springs, this mattress achieves an unparalleled balance of plushness and support. The medium firmness offers a nurtured sink-in feel while delivering targeted support to pressure points which eases muscle and joint tension for an utterly restful slumber.
Suitability
While this mattress possesses many great features, it isn't a one-size-fits-all solution. It is indeed a superb choice for side sleepers, those of lower BMI or with hourglass figures who require extra cushioning from the support layer. However, back sleepers and individuals in need of orthopaedic support may find it less than ideal. Despite the impressive spring count being more marketing ploy than functional, the mattress scores high in terms of overall quality.
What customers thought
As a mattress reviewer, I examine the product from a technologically informed perspective. However, ultimately the value of a mattress lies in the comfort and satisfaction it offers its users. Therefore, customer reviews form an integral part of our review process. We scoured the internet, absorbing the experiences of hundreds of Millbrook Smooth Tech Ultra 10000 Pocket Mattress's users, integrating their context into our review.
The verdict
For those on the hunt for a soft to medium firm mattress with excellent edge support, a generous comfort layer, a long warranty period, and a durable, high spring count for personalised support, the Millbrook Smooth Tech Ultra 10000 Pocket Mattress should make your shortlist. However, back sleepers and those needing orthopaedic support may find it lacking. On the whole, this mattress impressively combines innovative design with quality components, and as such, the Millbrook Smooth Tech Ultra 10000 Pocket Mattress earns a high commendation in our books.
