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.

  • The Slumberland Naturals Ultimate Wool Mattress offers an exceptional blend of support and comfort, thanks to its combination of 3050 dual layer pocket springs.

  • Reviewers noted the excellent thermo-regulation features of the mattress - with its all-season wool comfort and organic flax, helping them to sleep warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

  • Its pressure-relieving latex component, proven to adapt to body contours and aid optimal spinal alignment, have been praised for remarkably reducing aches and pains particularly among back and stomach sleepers.

  • Users who value sustainability highly praised the responsibly-sourced materials like organic cotton and bamboo; the fact that GOTS-approved organic and textile standards have been met, made this mattress an even more attractive choice for conscience consumers.

  • Clients appreciated its no-turn, easy care feature and robust handles for mattress rotation, making the Slumberland Ultimate Wool Mattress not just comfortable, but genuinely convenient.

  • While the Naturals Ultimate Wool Mattress provides exceptional support and firmness, some reviewers mentioned it may be too firm for side sleepers who need a bit more sinkage for their hips and shoulders.
  • A few customers pointed out that the mattress, being a non-flip option, might limit its longevity, however, regular rotation can help to maintain its maximum lifespan.
  • Some users reported that despite the luxurious and rich range of materials used, the Naturals Ultimate Wool Mattress is slightly on the premium side in terms of cost, which may not suit every budget.

Why our sleep experts loved it

If you're on the hunt for an exemplary blend of comfort and sustainability, our spotlight shines on the Slumberland Naturals Ultimate Wool Mattress. A unique marriage of innovative design and environmentally-friendly materials, this sleep masterpiece promises to shake up your perception of nocturnal luxury.

How We Test

In order to provide an impartial and accurate review, we devoted substantial time to examining this mattress in person at the store. While we haven't experienced sleeping on this mattress at home, we endeavoured to investigate its features thoroughly. We assessed everything from its visual appeal, the feel of the materials, the support offered, to its eco-credentials. Combined with invaluable customer feedback and personal reflections, we hope to offer an insightful review of the Slumberland Naturals Ultimate Wool Mattress.

Design and Features

Visually, the Slumberland Naturals Ultimate Wool Mattress boasts undeniable sophistication. Underneath its lavish exterior, a dual-layer of 3050 pocket springs consisting of 2000 mini and 1050 full-height springs work together to support your unique body contours and movement. The mattress surface integrates Truecomfort fillings composed of 75% recycled PET plastic, adding an additional bonus to eco-conscious customers.

The cover embodies comfort and health benefits thanks to the inclusion of Tencel™, renowned for its softness as well as its natural antibacterial and allergy protection properties. The eco-friendly ethos extends to the use of sustainably sourced organic cotton and flax, recognised by GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard).

Further comfort enhancements are made through the inclusion of the Wool All Seasons Comfort, an element that cleverly adapts to seasonal temperature variances. Additionally, the natural bamboo fibres contribute to a hypoallergenic, warm yet breathable sleeping surface. The dynamic edge support design offers durability while maximising entire sleep surface utilisation, reducing roll-off incidents. To extend the mattress life and maintain optimal performance, this no-turn design simply requires regular rotation.

Comfort Level

The standout feature of the Naturals Ultimate Wool Mattress is unquestionably its balance of firmness and softness. Available in Medium and Firm options, this mattress caters to a broad range of sleeping preferences, with the Firm variant providing excellent orthopaedic support.

Suitability

Preference of mattress firmness often correlates with one’s sleeping position. The Firm variant of Slumberland Naturals Ultimate Wool Mattress is ideal for back and front sleepers due to the high level of support provided. For side sleepers, or those with hourglass figures who require more sinkage in the hip and shoulder region for comfortable sleep, the Medium variant would serve as a more fitting option.

What Customers Thought

Feedback from customers reveals a predominantly positive reception. Many praise its high specification and the excellent quality, noting that it provides significant improvements to their sleep quality. While the price tag might seem steep to some, the consensus is that the premium investment is justified by the substantial buoy in sleeping comfort and the eight-year guarantee. Some pointed out equivalent comfort could be found in more affordable alternatives.

The Verdict

Our assessment in concert with customer opinions validates the Slumberland Naturals Ultimate Wool Mattress as an outstanding choice offering unrivalled comfort, support and sustainability. It successfully strikes a balance between extreme quality and environmental consideration. However, it must be mentioned that such state-of-the-art luxury comes with a hefty price tag. Still, for those willing to invest in their sleep quality, this mattress represents a sound investment. The notable eight-year guarantee alongside the orthopaedic support in the Firm option and the versatility of the Medium option for side sleepers adds to its charm. Furthermore, the all-season wool comfort is a noteworthy feature that distinguishes it within the market.

So, is it worth it? In our opinion, yes! This mattress, with its advanced sustainable construction and unwavering commitment to comfort, is a mindful investment in sleep luxury.

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.

Ease of Use

  • Turning handles
    ★★★★★
    ★★★★★
  • Mattresses typically need to be rotated frequently and having turning handles can be massively beneficial, particularly in larger sizes which can become fairly heavy.

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.

Reviewing the Slumberland Ultimate wool mattress. After making 2 very costly mistakes ordering matresses far too firm for me (my own silly fault), Bensons exchanged my matresses TWICE under the guarantee with no hassle whatsoever. I'm so pleased to say, i have finally found comfort! This feels like a dream to sleep on. It's well made, and so supportive for my back as I'm a back sleeper. The wool topping keeps me so cool & temperature regulated, I don't find myself stripping off in the night to cool down anymore! And for the first time in well over a decade... I do not need a thick foam matresss topper over the top of my mattress! I hope it lasts many years ahead, as I now actually look forward to bed times! Delivery smooth & courteous ( as all 3 have been). Massive thanks to Andy from the Waterlooville branch for finally making my sleeps so happy!!!!

The choice of mattress's in the store is something of a minefield and after three visits to the Lincoln Store, we eventually decided for this option. Its really comforting (no pun intended) to know that the mattress can be exchanged if it proves to be unsuitable. However, on the first night sleep we immediately knew we had made the right choice and there is certainly no no desire to use this option. It is wonderfully comfortable and warm and we have certainly made the right decision.

My new mattress is incredibly comfortable and was from day one. I would definitely recommend the product to others. The only issue is that I was advised to regularly rotate it and it is too heavy for me to do so on my own. However, I expect most mattresses would have the same problem for me.
