The bounce we've just mentioned does mean there's a little motion transfer, but less than you'd feel with a traditional sprung mattress – and a little more than you'd feel with an all-foam memory foam mattress. So, what did it feel like to sleep on? It got the thumbs up from everyone who tried it – men, women, children and, er, a dog at one point. And, because the memory foam layer is over a spring layer, you get the bounce you don't get with traditional memory foam mattresses, and you don't sink too deeply into it either. The benefit of this? Side sleepers and back pain sufferers won't wake up with achy joints. You can feel the support of the springs beneath, but the memory foam layer moulds to your body, whether you're lying on your side or your back or front.

It's a meaty 10cm deep and it provides the type of cushioning over the springs that traditional mattresses or even mattress toppers simply don't give. And if pocket sprung is what you're used to, you'll experience this, initially at least, as more of a medium firm mattress.Īnd this is where the memory foam layer comes in. But don't expect the firmness of a pocket sprung mattress here: if you're looking for that, you need to avoid anything with a memory foam top layer. The spring layer beneath the memory foam layer is what provides the targeted support. This mattress has a symmetric construction with five comfort zones and zoned springs. And being veterans of the Simba Hybrid, we were looking forward to testing a mattress with good breathability and support, too. There's a lot more bounce in a hybrid when compared to even a modern all-foam mattress.
