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.

Unique product that can not be matched head to head with other options.

Medium and firm are both ideal for all-round support, although the medium side will better suit side sleeping.

Premium and trusted brand which has great customer feedback generally.

Untried and untested when it comes to long form reviews, although it does look the part!

If you only ever sleep on your side or your back then you might not need to two firmnesses. As a result the biggest winner from this type of product will be a combination sleeper.

Why our sleep experts loved it

Looking for a new mattress that can offer you comfort, support, and durability? I would like to introduce you to the Slumberland Flip Mattress, a unique product that lets you choose between two different firmness levels, both of which can be enjoyed separately by simply flipping it over. Slumberland is a reputable sleep brand with a long history of innovation and is one of the oldest and most trusted mattress brands in the UK. Established in 1919 as a manufacturer of luxury bedding products, it has since evolved into a leader in comfort technology.

Slumberland products are all designed with health and wellbeing in mind, using premium materials and advanced features to deliver optimal support and pressure relief for your body. The manufacturer is now part of the popular retailer Bensons for Beds, one of the largest bed retailers in the UK, and the Flip model is available online or in any of their stores nationwide.

The comfort and support layers that make this product comfortable feature a hybrid inner support that combines pocket springs and memory foam to create a balanced feel of comfort and support. The bed has two sides: one with medium firmness and one with firm firmness (we’ve marked this down as a medium firm in this review to try and showcase its appeal to both markets). You can flip the product according to your preference or sleeping position which means that your mattress can adjust and grow with you. This mattress is versatile and durable, and can adapt to your changing needs over time, caused by a change in sleeping position or additional aches and pains.

One of the benefits of this mattress is that it can suit different sleepers with different needs. Whether you prefer a softer or firmer feel, or you switch between back, side, or stomach sleeping, you can find your ideal comfort level by flipping the product. Doing this can also extend the lifespan of your mattress as you are utilising different layers over different periods. This means that you can prevent sagging, lumps, or uneven wear on one side of the comfort layer just by flipping in line with manufacturer recommendations. 

When it comes to the comfort layers, you get a fairly deep layer of breathable and responsive foam which is infused with more smart fabric which helps regulate temperature and moisture while sleeping. The cover is made from Tencel fabric, which is soft, natural, and antibacterial, making it breathable and hypoallergenic.

In conclusion, the Slumberland Flip Mattress is a versatile and durable product that can adapt to your changing needs over time which is not something that any other mattress we have come across on the market aims to achieve.The unique multi-tension offering is something we’ve not seen attempted before and while reviews are limited, we expect it to perform well. Ultimately you are getting two firmness options in one mattress, allowing you to customise your comfort level by flipping it over to suit your mood. Combine this unique benefit with the high-quality materials that provide comfort and you are left with enhanced pressure relief, breathability, and hygiene for your sleep environment.

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.
  • 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 is based on community driven customer reviews tied to product reviews and grouped together at a brand level to produce a score.

Lovely mattress bought for my 4 year old. It's like sleeping on a cloud. We bought a small double so I can get in and comfort him when he's poorly. It's so nice, wish I had this mattress for my bed. Brilliant that it can be turned over when he needs a firmer surface. Should hopefully last him a few years. It's a thick mattress and we bought it to go with the hip hop bed frame. I don't realise the combination of the two would mean the bed is pretty high. Bear this in mind if you like something lower to the ground.

Great innovation! I was looking for a mattress for my ever growing child and this meets our needs and means I don't need to replace the mattress every couple/few years. We use the softer side at moment but knowing I can turn this over in years to come to support his body gives great value for our money. Love also it helps regulate his temperature as he gets very hot at night. Overall, fab smart product, fantastic value for our money and you get a great deal of reassurance with its 8 year guarantee. Thanks.

Absolute comfort, really ecstatic with my purchase. The guys that delivered my bed were friendly and very helpful would recommend Bensons for beds to anyone wanting to buy a bed. In store was a pleasant experience as the staff were very knowledgeable about their products without being pushy, also left me to get on and chose once they had armed me with all the information I needed. Will not go anywhere for future beds as the quality is second to none.

Really happy with the whole process. From shopping with my wife and little boy (who loved trying all the beds!) to the fast delivery and then of course the feel of the mattress itself. I love the fact that it's a flip-able mattress, I prefer the soft side which works well when my sleep deprived wife kicks me out for snoring whilst she's dealing with our 2 children and great for her when she gets the rare nap as she prefers a firmer mattress.

I love the concept of this mattress, it's basically a 2 for 1. Soft tension on one side and firm on another where you can switch depending choice. Fully labelled around the side of the mattress so you know which side is which. I have it on the firm side but it isn't too firm like you are sleeping on the floor ! It is still so comfy. Lovely modern design, thick quilted material and fits my bedstead far better than my previous mattress.

Although I have only slept on a economy spring mattress prior to this purchase, I can wholeheartedly recommend this mattress. The option to flip the equally comfortable sides is something I never knew I'd love as much as I have. So far I have not noticed a dip in the mattress shape, but I am due to rotate it anyway just in case. I have no complaints about my purchase at all! Other info: I am a lone sleeper, no pets on bed etc.

like it but have needed to add my Dorma topper to the bed to make it comparable with the comfort of my older bed I am getting used to it and am sleeping well. Will not be easy to keep to flip and turn as advised.also have to be careful not to bump up against the bed frame .badly bruised at the beginning overhang from topper and quilt now prevents any injury.

Very happy with this Slumberland mattress even though it was designed for young people. I'm in my late 70s but lightweight and it suits me perfectly - soft side for winter when you want comfort, firmer side for summer when bedding is lighter for cooling. The fact it has handles enabling you to turn it is an added bonus. So glad I chose it.

Lovely comfy mattress. Swapped for my memory foam, which I really slept well in, but it was becoming far too heavy to lift to make the bed. The Flip is just as comfortable, easy to lift and turn over. Not just a child's bed, ideal for me as an 80 year old. Would recommend if you're a pensioner, go and try the bed in the show room.

Brilliant mattress, extremely comfortable and more importantly has kept my (for the last 4 years!!) co-sleeping child in his own bed! He's so excited to go to bed and tells me every night how comfy his new grown up bed is! Thank you Bensons, I can actually get a full nights sleep again, and with it, my sanity!

This mattress is perfect for my 11 year old grandson. He is a keen sportsman so it was important he had the correct support and comfort. As he grows we know we can turn it to the firmer side to give him the support he needs. The delivery men were great. Good experience from beginning to end

This mattress is ideal for a small, reasonably light adult. What I like is the choice between a medium and firm side to sleep on. I'm using the medium side and I'm really enjoying it so far. It is much deeper than my old mattress, so I almost need a step ladder to get into bed now!

Review from my 9 year old son: It is really nice, you almost sink into it. It's soft, fluffy and just like really smooth. The first night I slept in it, I felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. I can't wait to go to sleep on it when I come to visit my dad.
