How long should I leave my rolled mattress before sleeping on it?
You should unroll your rolled mattress on a bed in a warm room 24 hours before use. By placing it in a warm room, the mattress recovery time will be faster. You should not remove the cover until it has been left 24 hours.
Will my mattress smell?
It’s quite normal for new mattresses to have a slight odour when it is unpackaged, however it is nothing to worry about and by airing the mattress, you will find that any odours will pass.
How do I clean my mattress?
We always recommend using a mattress protector. You should not use detergents or chemical cleaners on your mattress as this may damage the fabric and stitching. Please do not remove the cover to clean the mattress, the cover is not removable.
Can I roll up the mattress for storage?
We use specialist equipment to roll a mattress in our factory. Please do not attempt to bend or re-roll your mattress yourself.

Ideal for my 5 year old
My 5 year old loves his new mattress and it’s quite light for me to fit the sheets on. The only issue I’ve noticed is there is a sort of hole at one side on the edge like some of the foam is missing. Not sure if it’s something to do with being folded up?
He’s slept well on it and says it’s very comfy. If you where a larger build I’m not sure it would be suitable due to the edge compressing when you sit up to get out of bed. Over time it would damage I’m sure.
All in all it’s great for my son who’s 5

My girlfriend loves this mattress and always has a better nights sleep when she stays at mine. I sleep a lot better in the bed as well but I am one of those people that can sleep anywhere…
My girlfriend always complained about how much her bed at uni makes her back feel so the first thing she’d do when she got to mine was jump onto the bed and make a massive sigh of relief because it’s so comfy! It’s coming up to a year since I’ve had this bed and it still hasn’t lost shape despite the fact I sleep on one side and she’s stays over every weekend. It’s really good quality and the price I paid was a bargain I think! I’ll be buying another one for the spare bedroom when we can be bothered to get a better bed for it.

It seriously cured my crippled body!
I don’t normally write reviews as I can’t be bothered but I had to write this one. I have just come back from holiday and our apartment had one of these mattresses, now I have a bone condition that causes me awful joint problems and back pain and most days I take time to get walking properly and I’m only 44. We have a fairly hard spring mattress at home and when I slept on the apartment one OMG I went the whole week with no pain at all and was walking normally when I got up! First time in years! NO JOKE one night back on my home one and I’m climbling out of bed like a geriatric! No joke I bought this mattress and put it on my credit card such is the need! Don’t think, buy it!
First off the chemical smell is still quite strong so much it has permuted right through the house I had to leave in the spare room for a few days before fitting it to the bed. Even now the smell still goes through a top blanket and sheet. Thant said my neck and shoulder ache has almost gone. Next time I will go back to a normal mattress just because of the smell issue.

Black Friday offer, half price. Very different from our previous mattress. Initially I thought it was stiff but it’s actually very comfortable. I think the foam takes a bit of getting used to. Sounds weird but it’s also warmer than the old one. The wife said the same the other night. Anyway, it seems a bargain so far and it’s supposed to be good for the wife’s back. See how it goes. Xox
I was completely shocked how quickly this made an immediate difference. After 25 yrs of sleeping on an expensive spring mattress with yrs left in it, my back was in severe pain. It was never a deep satisfying uninterrupted sleep.
On this mattress, after only a single night. The complete lack of any soreness, pain or pressure. I had my first enjoyable uninterrupted painfree night for a long time. The benefits are obvious but the motivation of the energy and freedom from worry. Unparralled speed of recovery which continues all day.
The foam supports all over the spinal cord and you sink into the total foamy support structure. Which helps the painful spots.
I realize it’s only early days yet but I have to admit to being slightly flummoxed by some of the negative feedback with regard to this mattress. I have just had the first decent nights sleep in ages and It seems perfectly ok to me but I guess time will tell. It did smell a bit but nothing that open windows couldn’t cope with. Also it may be coincidence, but I haven’t woken up with a cricked neck this morning which has for me become the norm for a number of years. I always thought it was my pillow but maybe not. The only thing I will say though is that its advertised as 20cm depth and its only 17cm, now whether that is due to its newness I don’t know but it still doesn’t detract from the comfortableness of the mattress.
This is a really terrific mattress. It’s more to the firm side than the soft side, but offers absolutely awesome support in all the right places. I admit I was a but hesitant given some of the more negative review here, but I figure that Which? magazine is probably a little more trustworthy than Pam from Droitwich who bought it for her enormous husband. I bought the single mattress for a loft bed, and it is supremely comfortable. It comes rolled in a tough cellophane bag, and yes it smells a bit when you get it out, but this is gone within a few days. It fits great with a nice 18cm depth which is perfect for bunks and high risers. It’s super comfortable. Quilted cover is soft, and the bed’s foam core itself is the absolute perfect combination of resistance and comfort. It’s on the firmer side of medium which is perfect for adults. You possibly may want to go softer for younger kids. But regardless, anyone who claims they can feel the slats through it must either have put it straight on the bed an gone to sleep or be Giant Haystacks. You need to unroll and leave this for AT LEAST 24 hours to enable it to fully form before use. I’ve made that mistake before with other mattresses, where you can end up ruining them by not allowing them to reach their proper thickness. So I’m not sure how the larger size mattresses would fare, typically for doubles or greater it’s advantageous to have a coil sprung core to ensure the bed doesn’t end up sagging in the middle, but certainly as a single mattress this has got to be nigh on impossible to beat for the money.
I bought this for my son’s first “big boy bed” and he loves it! It’s used in a mid sleeper and the size is perfect. I’ve slept in it with him a few times and can confirm that it’s super comfy but not too soft. It doesn’t make you too hot like some memory foam mattresses do, and it sleeps 2 comfortably without us rolling together. It arrives rolled up and when you first unwrap it, it does have a chemical smell. The smell goes away pretty quickly but I’d suggest leaving it unwrapped, in a well ventilated room for as long as possible before putting a sheet on. Overall, I’m very pleased with my purchase and so is my boy. It arrived quickly with easy to follow instructions. All good.

I ordered this “Mattress Topper” as a replacement for my very expensive Tempur mattress (which is currently in storage) to go on the top of a mid priced sprung mattress and have to say that for the little while I’ve tried it, it’s just as good as my more expensive Tempur. I suffer with back and joint pain and am completely unable to sleep on my back unless I have a foam mattress, with this mattress I am completely comfortable in being able to sleep in any position I want and pain free so I recommend this DEEP mattress topper. The product is about 5 inches deep, comes in a zip washable protector and is vacuum packed on delivery, once opened you need to let it rest for 24 hrs so that it gets back to it’s usual size. After that, comfy sleeping forever 🙂 feel free to ask me questions and I will give you my honest opinion (I brought the double).
I read reviews before buying this and I agree that there is an initial smell but nothing like I expected and it was gone in a day. I have slept on it for 2 nights now and have to say I’m amazed !! I had read a review about joint pain benefitting from this mattress but didn’t put much stock in it until I woke up after the first night with no shoulder pain..thought it was a fluke until this morning. no pain !! I have been waking up for over a year with severe shoulder pain but it seems that is now a thing of the pas
The product is great, extremely comfortable, make sure you read the instructions and leave the mattress expand for 72 hours after opening, does smell like paint when u first open it but give it a week or so and the smell will go. We do however use this mattress on top of our old one so that it is higher up, we were going to get a memory foam topper but decided on getting a mattress so that it was thicker and it has made a real difference to comfort.
I was a little dubious buying this but, Silentnight is a well-known brand. I injured my back when I was 17 hence me shying away from buying online. It was a little firmer than I thought it would be but since I have been sleeping on this mattress I have slept well and NOT woken with any additional aches and pains. In fact, my low back pain appears a little better. After a few nights on this, I am pleasantly surprised and quite look forward to bedtime. Well done Silentnight.
I’ve just been reading some of the reviews because I want to buy this matttress again. I bought one in October 2016 when my son moved into a flat in London and chose it based on Silentnight name and Prime availability. it was in daily use for 12 months and has been used on a spare bed, regularly slept on by a number of friends and family since. Everybody who’s slept on it (including me at one stage) has said how well they’ve slept and how comfortable it is. I bought a single one at the same time which is also in regular use. We have family staying at the moment and they have found it so comfortable they want to buy one themselves hence the reason for finding my original order details. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy it again.
When deciding to buy I went on the reviews and I’m so glad I did. I waited till it was in the sale then purchased it for half price. Because of the way it comes packaged it is easy to maneover into place and it is so light to lift compared to a conventional mattress which can be quite heavy. And once it is left to puff out the required time it is excellent. I replaced a very heavy matress for this one and it’s the best thing I ever did. Wot a joy to sleep on. I have a bad back and my old mattress was making it flare up constantly. Not this one. It’s holds you firmly while feeling soft all at the same. time. I have never had a problem with my back since I started sleeping on it. Enabling us to wake up fresh from a great nights sleep. There is no roll together as the mattress hugs your shape. I have never had a mattress this comfortable and because it’s so light it makes changing the sheets a doodle. Simply superb quality with a zip on cover which can be washed for hygiene purposes. Everyone who has sat on it loves it. Why did I wait so long to get rid of my other mattress. I can not give you a complete wear test as I’ve only had it for a few months. But i can say it’s as good now as it was when it was brand new. I would like to point out that it does get a lot of wear as I’m bed bound and it is holding up great.
I would buy another in a heart beat!
What a difference this has made to my nights sleep. Very comfortable if you like your mattress slightly firm. As is the way with foam, it is warmer than sprung, but is easy to get use to. No bad smells either. Recommended…
Had to buy this item as a family member was having extreme difficulty getting in and out of bed through illness. The lower profile of this mattress was ideal in aiding this basic need. Was concerned that it would not be able to support a very considerable combined weight (not saying what, but very heavy)
It is not a memory foam mattress that you sink into but firm to the extreme & comfortable with it.
Would recommend it.
I purchased this mattress a few months ago, it arrived rolled up and vacuum packed and I was concerned as it looked so thin!
Finally got round to putting it on my bed this weekend, once unpacked it began to take shape and I was surprised how thick it is. It’s so comfortable it seems to mould to your body shape, I can’t believe it’s only topped with memory foam.
Some reviews have mentioned the smell, I must agree it was quite strong, smells like paint! I could smell it in my room when I went to bed but once in bed I didn’t notice it again.
I can’t praise this mattress enough, I’m so pleased with it.
Great for the carava
Having read lots of reviews I took the plunge and purchased this mattress last October as it was reduced in the black Friday sale. Mainly I needed something that would be easy to transport 70 miles from home to our static caravan the following March. The fact that it came rolled up was an important feature.
We unrolled it on the living room floor of the caravan at night when we went to bed and by morning it was nice and fluffed up. Transferred it to the bed and left it for the rest of the day to give it the full 24 hours. There was a bit of smell.but not strong and not unpleasant and it soon went. We had a good night’s sleep. I didn’t feel I sank into it too much and we didn’t suffer any roll together. I think it got a bit softer over the course off the week.
As it is only for occasional use I feel it will last well.
If I had to find one downside I would say that the lack of springs make it less easy to stand out of bed but it wasn’t a problem but I could see it might be for someone with limited mobility ( that’s just my rehab nurse side coming out!)
All in all I am very pleased and as the old nayyress was causing back pain and this one dosen’t I am happy especially at the price I paid – about 130 in the sale
Best mattress I have purchased! This is the first memory foam mattress I have used but I certainly will not be going back to spring ones anytime soon. Easy to get into the room on delivery and although two of the corners have never properly expanded to right angles (the are curved) it doesn’t seem to have made a difference. It mentions that you should just turn the mattress and not flip it over but I am not too sure how that is going to work with the 7 zones then being in the wrong place but so far it seems as good as the first night.
Why wouldn’t you buy this? Great value, comfortable, arrives rolled so v easy to transport, light to lift when making bed. This is the 6th one we’ve bought (perfect for our rental house too).
Bought this on a whim, but haven’t been disappointed.
My back ache disappeared the first night I slept on this and I haven’t been disappointed since.
If you’re unsure about a memory foam mattress, don’t be, but this!
Bought in an Amazon flash sale for 55. Absolutely stunning value for what this is. Got it for a kids trundle bed for the occasional sleep over, but I reckon it would be fine for an adult sleepover! I probably wouldn’t have it as a long-term solution for an adult, but for children or guest beds this is brilliant. I’m comparing to our 1k+ Tempur mattress and I can promise this Silentnight ‘cheap’ foam mattress isn’t miles away in quality!
Mattress arrived in perfect condition looks great can’t wait to try it tomorrow it being memory foam it takes twentyfour hours to rise to it shape because it is vacumed packed delivery was very fast well done had this mattress now four days best sleep in years nice and firm and warm I’ve had no aches or pains since highly recommend this mattress

I built a really wide bed to replace our double bed and bought two of these single mattresses. They made a super 6 foot wide bed!
The mattresses are perfect… memory foam is so comfortable. Excellent! Sincere thanks, Silentnight!
Excellent product, easy instructions and left for the 48 hours as advised to maximum time to expand to the right size. It does wonders for my hips as I suffer with Hip Dysplasia and Mild Scoliosis so really helps to relieve pains and uncomfortable aches to give me a good nights sleep. The chemical smell disappears after 72 hours once a mattress cover is placed on top so no worries about that. Superb quality product for an excellent price delivered within 2 days even to the channel islands in perfect condition.
Outstanding, but could be bette
Simply amazing. it is a very nice mattress and very comfortable. It does make me get a little too warm for my liking but i can solve that with a topper! It is a bit on the firm side and i would prefer to “Sink” into my mattress but i cant complain as its still very comfortable.
So i will say do not buy this if you have a bed with rods to support the mattress rather than wood slats. It does sink into them. I have had to buy some MDF and cut it into some sections to support the mattress. It is also quite the heavy mattress. The general quality is good, there is obviously room for improvement, but for the 169 that i paid it is very good. If it was full price i dont think i would say this was good value for money.
As described, foam rolled mattress. There is a zipper around the mattress and since my daughter spilled some juice, I’ve decided to remove the cover and wash it. The cover is now lovely and cleaned, washed extremely well. But the trouble we had was to try to put the mattress back into it’s cover, it took two strong adults to push it back!
I bought this 5 months ago, and there is a slight dip in it where I sleep in the same position, but it’s hardly noticeable at all! Us there is a chemical smells but it goes off it two-three days. The mattress is also more than able to take my boyfriends weight who stays at weekends, and he is a 6″4 rugby player. I found massive improvements by just buying a cheap bit of plywood boarding. And fixing it over the slatted frame of my bed. And it’s worked a treat. As this mattress is ment for flat base beds, and I would imagine a lot of bad reviews come from people who have put this on a slatted bed. Which is a no go.
Balanced
Really good mattress, not too soft and not too hard although I ‘ weight much so for me it was hard but comfortable because it was still soft. PS. my roommate she had a proper memory foam mattress so her mattress was super soft like you just drop in sort of thing so I guess I am comaring to that one it was much harder but I would say its a balanced mattress. Good quality foam although the protector cover can get very dirty as all the dusts and stuff stick on it (bare in mind I did have my mattress on the floor carpet, student life) All in all its very affordable good size looks good and very comfortable to sleep in! definitely recommend! also does not weight a lot and you can proper wrap it up so great for moving around (again student life)
Love this – so comfortable, plus, because it arrived (so quickly) rolled up like a big sausage, it was quite easy to move it along to the bedroom. Big advantage!
after spending ages reading reviews and considering where to purchases mattresses for my children’s new beds I’m so glad I chose these. They arrived quickly and very well package rolled up in layers of thick plastic. It did take me a while to unpack them due to the layers but literally got them out and laid then flat and straight away they increased in size. They are very soft and comfortable and we’re a great price for the silent night brand
I have never bought a foam mattress before so I was a bit unsure when I purchased it. It’s delivered rolled up and has to be unrolled and left to expand to it’s correct size. We left it on our bed for just over 24hrs (it can take 72hrs to expand). When we first slept on it it left me with aches in the morning. Over the next few days this didn’t improve and I started a return/refund. Whilst contemplating how we were going to repackage it and send it back we continued to sleep on it, as we didn’t have a mattress n the meantime.
Over the next few days the mattress seemed to soften and I am glad to say that it’s now one of the most comfortable mattress’s we’ve slept on. There have been a few reviews on here where people have found it uncomfortable. I think that maybe the mattress just takes longer to expand properly for different people. I did read the side of the pack and the ambient temperature can effect it.
A very good mattress that we would buy again.
The “Silentnight 7-Zone Memory Foam” mattress is a good product for the money (200 quid for the king size). Lots of reviews on here, so in brief:
-It is pretty much 20cm thick as the attached photo shows. 19.8cm after leaving to ‘rise’ for 48 hours in a warm room. Other photos perhaps are only an hour after opening when it is indeed still about 16cm.
-It is not convenient however, to have it rise for so long as obviously it takes a lot of space. I guess this should be balanced against how easy it is to transport / deliver / take upstairs in its rolled up state.
-It does smell quite strongly, like marker pens, for quite a long time after opening.
-Comfort wise, it is a medium firmness and nice and supportive for the larger framed individual. Nice and consistent across the mattress, no springs or metal frames or deviations.
Overall, for the price, I think it is decent value. Compared to a sprung mattress of the same price, I think the foam is a better option – just plan ahead for keeping it open to rise+smell for AT LEAST 24 hours, probably more.
I was really reluctant on purchasing this item and I have left it for nearly 8 months to leave a review…
It’s still as great as the day I bought it!
Positives:
– Comfortable, I am a large man (5″11 and 17 stone) and it has not dipped for me at all.
– Sturdy
Negatives:
– You need space to be able to let it breathe and fully expand.
– The smell – My mum has this mattress and has stated that hers does not smell. However, when I purchased mine initially, it did smell quite a bit. I would not say it was an unpleasant smell but it was definitely noticeable.

Arrived compactly rolled up, I left for two days to spring back in to shape and air out. Absolutely love my new mattress, it’s so comfortable it’s really hard to get up in the mornings.
After having IKEA memory mattresses for years and watching their price increase, I thought it was time for a change, our mattress was showing its age, it didn’t feel like memory foam anymore and compressed quite quickly and easily, yes I’m 6’4″ and weighed 17st at the time.
Ikea was a pain to get to, so I looked online for alternatives – size was important as our bed has the euro measurements, so bigger than a double but smaller than a king, which meant it was a difficult size to source. Up popped this silent night mattress for a decent price and a fiar number of good reviews, next day it was delieverd all shrink wrapped in a small sausage shape, surely this isn’t going to fit?
Unwrapped first thing in the morning and lay it on top of the bed, through the course of the day the mattress sorted itself out and grew to its full size, yes initially there was a strong chemical smell (not nasty, but noticeable) but this disappeared very quickly and a couple of days you’d never know.
First nights sleep was great, you could feel it was new and very supportive, no roll together, no picking up on my other half moving (or me for her) and all in all a decent buy.
Several months later we are still enjoying decent quality sleep on this mattress, its on a different bed frame now (ironically a kingsize) but its still worth the money I paid and hopefully will keep use restful for the foreseeable future.
Ok so fa
I had been watching this item for a while and ordered it just before Christmas when the price dropped to 135. I left it on the bed in the spare room for 4 or 5 days to settle before using it. The chemical smell was very strong and there was still some smell after 10 days if the bedroom door was shut, but there is no smell now. I initially found it very hard and uncomfortable to sleep on which is surprising as I prefer a firm mattress. However, it is now OK after using it for over a month. I have noticed it can get very warm as others have mentioned. The mattress has been turned every week and so far no no issues about grooves or lumpiness to report. On the whole, I am pleased with the purchase, especially in view of the price paid. 4 stars given because of the intial uncomfortable and hardness issues.
Very comfortable.
Memory foam in general is absolutely brilliant and you wont regret getting memory foam, when it is new I believe you will not find anything more comfortable and better supporting. My wife has some artificial hip joints etc… and she is well pleased with the memory foam mattress. We will be getting her another one when she is done with the current one. It has lasted her longer though since she is lighter, about 3 years.
But if you are anything but a relatively light weight man or woman, you’re going to need a new one of these within 2 years or less. I am a 90kg guy and this mattress didn’t last me as long as it has for my wife, which is to be expected, though 90kg someone of my height etc… my BMI is actually not fat or obese or anything. Wish it lasted longer.
In fairness, due to the price compared to other mattress, replacing this one every 2 years is actually not unreasonable.
I nearly sent this back when it arrived. They come vacuum packed and folded. It looked more like a large sleeping bag.
You have to be VERY careful not to damage the mattress when you remove the very thick plastic packaging. Then when you unroll it you must leave it for 24 hours and use it. It needs turning and I would suggest a protector too.
For us this is for our spare bed and it’s perfect. It is quite thin at 14cm but seems very comfortable.
It’s great value at the discounted price. We will test it this evening and I’ll update but it seems a great option.
Two weeks in and it still takes some getting used to. We have a bit of hippo’ing in the middle – due to our individual sizes and shapes – cuddly and curvaceous – so getting used to having a pillow between us prevents the sloping feeling. I’m sure if we lost a few more pounds/stones it wouldn’t be so noticeable. It’s the warmest mattress we have ever slept on. So bring on the Winter! We will be snug. If you like being snug.. and if you can handle the pillow between you at your back (it’s really not personal) Then go for it! Both of us have different back problems – and this mattress has proven good for both our posture needs and good quality sleep requirements.
leveled out in less than 24 hours, fortunately as it arrived at 6pm and I had already moved my previous mattress. No smell to report but I do use plug ins and my room generally smells nice. Much thicker than I would have expected with it being slightly thicker than my previous silent night spring and memory combined mattress. It takes a little getting used to compared to a spring/coil mattress this is a given but all in all much better bed than I had previously and very comfortable. I am mindful of other peoples comments in regards to sagging but luckily/unluckily due to be a single person in a double bed I’ll just move about to ensure even coverage and usage!
My only gripe is that its a little warmer but I think that combined with the 12.5 tog feather duvet may play some part. Highly recommend.
Great quality mattress, extremely firm, add a topper for 5 Stars
I ordered the Silentnight 7-Zone Memory Foam mattress after reading many positive reviews about it. The wife and I were in need of a new superking mattress, and had become fans of memory foam mattresses over the years. I thought it a bit strange that I couldn’t find this exact mattress on the silentnight website, but decided to order from amazon anyway. Delivery was extremely prompt, 3 days, and the vacuum sealed package wasn’t too hard too get up our narrow staircase to the bedroom. The packaging was in good order, and was a bit of a bear to remove, but I’d prefer that to thin shoddy packaging. We let the mattress expand over 24 hours to reach full size and to “off-gas” the mattress itself. The mattress turned out to be firmer than we are accustomed to, even though we thought we were used to firm mattresses. This one is “orthopedic” firmness so quite hard. After adding the 3″ Super King Size Memory Foam Mattress Topper we were thoroughly pleased. So I won’t give this one 5 stars due to it being extremely firm without noting said in the description, but definitely worth 4 stars and buying, particularly if you add a nice topper.
Worth persevering!
Yes it smells awful, terrible, dreadful, dead cat in a carrier bag in hot weather (please note I am just guessing that bit before I get hate mail) BUT that does not last – thank God! I am very happily married to an insomniac – love him – hate his sleeping patterns. In desperation after reading a gazillion reviews I bought this mattress. I HATED it. It stank, it was uncomfortable. It looked thinner than my mother in law’s welcome when I unwrapped it. It expanded. It got more comfortable but that smell…..I sprayed it daily with that stuff they advertise as killing sweaty sock odour in a gym. Didn’t help. Finally after a couple of weeks I decided I could stand it no longer. It was 3 a.m. the smell woke me up. I turned to my husband to say we have to dump this and he was asleep!!! He was still asleep hours later. I decided to try and persevere and I am so glad I did. The smell does go. We both now sleep. We sleep well. Stick with it. You will be glad you did. I am. Good luck!
Really nice medium firm mattress - very pleasantly surprised
Bought for our guest bed where we didn’t want to spend a fortune as it only sees occasional use.
We felt it was a bit of a gamble (having bought and later on disliked mattresses we had actually tested at the yellow and blue swedish furniture house before we bought them) but we needn’t have worried.
We had recently spent 900 on a memory foam mattress for our own (super king) bed and this is just as comfortable if not better.
The quality seems very good, not quite as good as that of our own mattress (which has more “luxurious” tufting and the edges are probably less likely to sag over time as well) but it is more than decent enough.
We really like the hardness level (which I would describe as medium firm) and it gives good support whilst still contouring to your body well without feeling like it’s sagging.
I would whole heartedly recommend this, we like it so much that we have been taking turns sleeping in the guest bed 😉
MUCH better than anything above mentioned furniture store will sell you at a much higher price tag.
I shouldn’t have purchased this mattress because since I’ve had it, I haven’t been able to get up in the mornings! It’s different from your usual spring mattress and you may need a few days (or shall I say nights) to get used to it but once you do, you too may have problems getting up in the mornings! 🙂 Point to note: Quite a few people have mentioned that the mattress gives off a nasty odour but I didn’t find this to be the case. There was a slight odour (nothing obnoxious) when I opened the package and unrolled the mattress but that soon disappeared. Now that I have this new mattress, I just hope my boss understands when I’m arriving late for work..!! 🙂
UPDATE: I’ve had this mattress for approximately five years now and I’ve had no issues – it’s still as comfortable as the first time that I slept on it. To keep the mattress in good condition, don’t forget to turn the mattress around occasionally as per the manufacturer’s recommendation. Hopefully, it should last another five years, fingers crossed! 🙂
This mattress changed my life. I was using normal spring mattress before and its extremly huge difference comparing to this one. It is so comfy and make our body relax and rest properly. After Waking up with this mattress I cant feel any pain as it reliefes pain for all parts of your body. I love that the mattress automaticly knows your body temperature staright after going inside to bed, so you will never be cold when going to bed anymore! Quality of this mattress is top level, packaging was amazing! It was so small because the mattress is rolled. Easy to set up as well. Just take packaging away, put matttress on your bed and wait 24h for getting its best shape. There was few review regarding bad smell. I must confirm that it was smelling a bit for few days. But after that its all good, worth it! 🙂
So are you ready to change your life and get best sleep in your whole life?
If yes, buy this bargain top quality mattress which I would recommend to everyone! Enjoy 🙂
BUY OR MISS OUT ON A HEAVENLY SLEEP
When we got our one delivered the packaging was excellent so no worries about damage or stains thank you. After we undid the packaging we laid ours flat and left it for 48 hours to make sure it went back into shape. We had read 24 or 36 hours depending on manufacture but we left it longer but it is up to you. We went to bed the first night and my wife liked it straight away but I did not and told her that I regretted buying it and she told me to give it a chance. Well I did and now have trouble getting out of bed every morning due to being so comfortable and say to all give it a chance and a little time as you wont regret it. Great price also so grab a bargain while you can as now our son wants one also and who knows how long this really cheap value for money price last for. I have suffered with back pain for years after injury and this helps and along with me being 6ft 2 and 300lbs it still is the comfortablest mattress that I have slept on to date. Now after my nightly workout I look forward to having a great nights sleep.
Back to Plan A!
We bought this about 5 weeks ago. Amazed that it was delivered by La Poste!
We were naughty and didn’t wait the full length of time before using it, so first night was not as good as it could have been. However, despite that I could tell this was a comfortable mattress.
Unfortunately, due to us both being obese, this mattress is a little too good. The previous mattress allowed us both to sink into a dip and therefore our 4’6″ bed was fine for us. I had talked about a new King size bed (Plan A), but decided that we only needed a new mattress. We’re now a little too squashed on this fabulous mattress. No dip means that we’re too wide for comfort and don’t have as much room as we would like.
So, yesterday I ordered a new King Size (to fit European King Size ) mattress and next week we head off to buy a King Size bed here in France.
I am so looking forward to having room to move AND being comfortably supported at night.
Edited to add:
A day before it’s scheduled arrival our new King Size mattress has arrived. I took photos so you could see how it arrives, but cannot see where to add them. It comes rolled and compacted, amazed that it can be transported this way. Looking forward to some more roomy nights from now on.
Five Stars From My Wife.
When this mattress came on Amazon at what can only be described as a bargain price, my wife and I decided it was time the old one went to the tip. The result is a perfect night for my wife, who lays down to sleep. However, due to my many and varied health conditions, I find it far more comfortable to sleep sitting up. And that is where the slight problem (for me only) lies. With this being a seven-zone mattress, the zone where my derriere rests whilst sitting up must be one of the harder zones. Thus, after a comfortable four to five hours, I am awakened by a numb posterior, and find it impossible to get back to sleep immediately. Hence only four stars from me – but five stars from my wife.
15 year old son says very comfortable!
So this is the entry level Silentnight foam mattress – it isn’t memory foam, you need the next one up to get a layer of that on it.
Comes rolled up very small and takes a few hours to expand properly. I bought the Euro Single 90×200 which fits an IKEA childrens bed nicely.
There is a bit of a chemical smell as others have said but after a few days this is passing.
My 15 year old son is absolutely chuffed to bits with the mattress and claims that it is a hundred times better than the cheap spring mattress that he has been using for the last 10 years or so (!).
For under 100 I think this is great value from a decent brand and would recommend it.
Some reviews here are a bit over blown or exaggerated, but overall this is a great mattress and worthy of your money.
Feels a bit firm to begin with, but once you’ve warmed it up a bit with your body heat it melts into a nice soft spongy and comfy platform. Its certainly cured my aching shoulders. The only minor issue with it is that on our divan it slides around a bit because its so light. Not really an issue though as you can tap it back into place. Would recommend, very pleased with this purchase.
Also for anyone wondering, no you sink into a body shaped hole from which its difficult to turn over. You can turn just as easily as a sprung mattress so no worries there. Actually thats not strictly true, if after a while you were to shift over to a cooler part of the bed you would sense a firmer mattress and would have a tendency to slide or roll into it. But you would have to physically move to feel this. Under normal conditions when you’re laying there and turning over its completely imperceptible.
Having returned from holiday where we used a memory foam mattress for the first time I was impressed by their comfort. I was less impressed by the price though. On doing some research these Silentnight mattresses were favourably reviewed by a reputable company. Having suffered a bad back for some time we decided to purchase this mattress as for the money could you really go wrong ? You can pay nearly 10 times the amount and these received less favourable reviews. Don’t be shocked when it arrives as it comes vacuum packed about the size of a packaged large duvet. On opening it it springs into a mattress shape but it needs to be left for a day or two to inflate to its full size. I see that other reviewers were put off by the smell. I found that this disappeared after a couple of days. The mattress is comfortable, although this will be a personal thing and it will not suit all. Although it is initially soft to lie on, once you have settled into it the overall effect is of quite a hard mattress. You can move independently without disturbing your partner and I have not found it overly hot either. Value for money certainly.
It was high time our old matress was dumped and this new one was a great replacement. Having been looking at the prospect of spending up to 1500 it was very pleasing to find the reviews for the 3 zone version of the matress. After a little deliberation I opted for the 7 zone version for only a few pounds more.
There was a short delay for delivery and when it came things were simple. Open the pack, unroll it on the bed and leave it for 24 hours. Yes there was some smell and it lasted for about two weeks but leaving the bedroom windows open all day helped that dissipate.
I’m still getting used to it but my wife loves it. I had expected it to be softer but am expecting that it may soften up a little over time. I would certainly recommend this matress and it is certainly great value for all things considered.
Very happy with everything overall.
Mattress is excellent for the price – under 200 for a king sized bed – and is supportive and comfortable. This mattress has helped to relieve aching joints at night. Four stars because the rubbery smell is lingering … Over two weeks now and still a whiff of it when the bedroom door is opened, although the room hast been aired all day every day. Only complaint was with the delivery company, whose tracking service online was a joke and gave fictional delivery status for my parcel, and therefore wasted two whole days waiting in for a parcel which was ‘out for delivery’ whilst simultaneously still being in the warehouse! They only got it right once helpful Amazon staff intervened.
Excellent mattress, firmer than expected.
Noticed this mattress as it is the single version of a Which best buy.
Delivery was quick and the mattress is very well made. It was purchased as a mattress for my daughters high bed and she has been very happy with it. If you have a slatted base, make sure you read the description as it sets out the minimum gap between slats.
My only grip, which I believe is a problem for all foam mattresses is that is has a bit of a strange smell. This was quite strong when it was first unfolded and two months down the line it is still noticeable when lying on it. This is slowly going but do be aware of this issue with foam if you are sensitive to smells.
Fantastic Budget Mattress
I’ve had a memory foam topper for years, but my actual sprung mattress really needed replaced so I decided to buy this item. (I’ll be honest, it was the price that attracted me and the fact I could take delivery next day with my Prime membership).
I have had it 3 months now and I can’t remember the last time I have had such a good nights sleep.
I practically wake up in the same position as I fell asleep in. So comfortable.
I’ve never experienced getting extra hot with memory foam as other people have, so no problems there at all.
I no longer wake up with a bad back which I have been plagued with for years. I still have my topper on top of this mattress and as the instructions said this mattress wasn’t suitable for beds with metal ‘slats’ due to the fact they could eventually cut through the mattress, I also purchased a cheap fabric mattress topper to go under it.
Well worth every penny in my opinion and I would have no hesitation in recommending to others.
More expensive mattresses may have extra foam or slightly more support, I don’t know, but for the money I paid I am absolutely delighted.
The only reason me and my partner chose this mattress was because of the price and the fact that we had just moved house and needed a mattress very quickly. As a student I have little money and chose this as an affordable and what we hoped to be a good quality mattress. It also appealed to me as it was offered on amazon prime and as an amazon student member we got prime delivery for free. We had left the bed till last minute and so needed next day delivery and thankfully this was upheld!
As for the mattress itself it is foam so feels very different to spring mattresses. I never sleep very well in a new bed and so really wasn’t expecting to get much sleep but dozed off straight away. It was incredibly comfortable and when I woke up my back felt amazing! I had previously got used to a very poor spring mattress and to have a mattress where there are no springs sticking in you when you roll over is lovely. It is not as firm as some other mattresses which is a shame but I have no complaints at all and am very glad I made the purchase!
A BARGAIN THAT I AM HAPPY WITH
I have gotten by with memory foam toppers for years but, now that prices have reduced, I have taken the plunge and am delighted with this memory foam double mattress from ‘Silentnight’, If anyone is wondering, the depth of the mattress is 180mm ( or 7.25 inches )and is deep enough to for fitted sheet to go on it snugly. I am not too far off 18 stones in weight and am 6 ft 3 ins tall, and it can handle me very comfortably. Some reviewers have whinged on about the chemical odour of a newly unpacked and unrolled mattress. Lets get things in perspective shall we. It is no more of a problem than the temporarily lingering aroma of gloss paint on a newly painted door or window.The aroma emitted from the mattress lasts as long as that of the paint too. Here’s a tip if you have a slatted bed base that you think may be a problem. Buy a full sheet of hardboard or thin plywood, cut it to fit over the slatted area ( or get it cut to size at the wood suppliers if your going to have to get it delivered anyway ) lay it on top of that slatted area ( no need for glue or screws ) and then lay the mattress over that. Problem solved.
Eamo
Not bad
Very concerned if this was a wise buy with some of the poor reviews on here but decided the good outweighed the bad and to give it a chance. It was purchased for our caravan where the bed is an odd shape and I could cut it to fit. Firstly the smell wasn’t that bad and disappeared after a day and the comfort excellent, there is however some roll together which I think should be expected with any foam type mattress and it is warmer to sleep on than a “normal” mattress. What was surprising was the improvement after only a few nights sleep in our general aches and pains and my wife’s arthritic knees, so much so we have now purchased a Tempur mattress for home. This also had a smell for a day or so, is warmer to sleep on than a normal mattress, but does have less roll together and more support than the Silentnight but obviously cost considerably more. Overall the Silentnight has done the job for us and done a great job for us.
Incredible value and fantastic produc
This mattress has been a total godsend. For the last 2 years myself and my husband have been battling it out with our previous mattress which, despite being more expensive than this silentnight mattress, dug into our sides and caused back ache most mornings. Now that we are expecting a baby and I am getting increasingly fidgety in bed, we decided it was time to buy a new mattress. After discovering that this mattress is a Which Best Buy, I couldn’t quite believe the price. I thought something fishy was going on but after reading the hundreds of reviews on Amazon, we decided to give it a whirl. And I am SO glad we did! It is ridiculously comfortable – I could sleep for days on end, delivery was super speedy and hassle free, and it only took about 12 hours to inflate to its full size after unwrapping so we were able to sleep on it on the day it was delivered. Definitely the purchase of the year so far!!! Thanks Silentnight and thanks to the seller! Really impressed!
A good nights rest.
Very tall son has always had problem with his back. Sitting at desks at school use to aggravate and the bed he was sleeping on didn’t help. So we researched and found this to have excellent reviews re firmness price was good too. I must admit I was a bit worried about buying such a large item on line without having seen it or trying it. Needn’t have worried. It was delivered on time. It is easy to carry up stairs. It’s hard to believe that what you carried up stairs is a mattress! Getting into is another matter. It took ages to get through the packaging. Once in it starts to come to life. It fitted the double divan really well. First impression is that it’s like a giant piece of covered foam. I must admit I did have a few misgivings looking at it. However, needn’t have worried. Son is really pleased with it. Says he’s sleeping much better. Nice and firm but comfortable to lie on. Unlike some people, we have had no experience with smells although after it arrived we did open the windows for several hours before use because of the reviews. Only time will tell if it has been a good long term purchase but for now it’s certainly value for money.
You will wait a long time for the mattress to rise to a full 8″ ours to this very day has only reached 7″ however we cannot give a false review over an inch.
It was quite amazing to see the mattress rise to a usable size from its rolled state, this we think is best done in a spare heated room as in fairness it takes a good 48hrs. and as already stated 7″ in depth is the best it could muster, this also helps relieve the smell that many reviews mention.
We expected a bad night for the first time of use but had exactly the opposite, the mattress feels very firm but gives one a sense of floating on air with a great deal of comfort, in fact its the best nights sleep we have ever had and being very early risers it would be quite easy to lay in.
This is our first experience of a memory foam mattress having always had springs in the past but we could recommend the Silentnight 7-zone to everyone.
I have suffered long term back problems for several years from a fractured spine and much to my amazement most of my aches and pains on awakening have eased or disappeared altogether.
Really good quality for the money
We bought this to fit on our wee 4 year olds new Pirate Bed.
It is a perfectly good sized mattress, don’t know what the reviewer who complained it’s too thin
is talking about! It’s the same thickness as a normal mattress once you’ve allowed it to
expand anfter unpacking it.
Our wee boy absolutely loves it and says “It’s really really really comfy daddy” so with 3 really’s who am I
to argue! 🙂 Actually I’ve tried it and he’s right, it is really comfy, even for an adult.
The other thing I liked was that it had no trace of that horrible chemical smell that many memory foam mattresses have
for the first few days after being unpacked. So we were able to put it straight on his bed after it had fully expanded.
superb value
Mattress has a medium to firm feel.
I guess it depends on your weight… I’m kinda chunky, so it’s more of a medium feel for me, but may feel firm for the more petite person.
Very comfortable.
Memory foam has an different feel to traditional mattresses and it took me about 5 days to adjust, but after that it’s been fantastic.
Had it for a couple of months now and am getting some quality comfortable sleep.
Factor in the price compared to many conventional sprung mattresses, and it really is a bargain.
Only thing to bear in mind, is that the memory foam makes you toastie and VERY warm very quickly… This has been great during this winter, but not so sure how great that will be when summer comes around.
Still, very highly recommended… Quality product at a budget price.
I ordered this matteress on Sunday and it was delivered on the Tuesday, so speedy delivery. As many other reviews state it did smell when unwrapped it was so bad we had to open all of the windows!! It was nice and deep and firmer than I expected. We left it till the following weekend to sleep on it once the smell was better. My partner loved it straight away. I slept well but was expecting to sink into it more. My body did a bit, being heavier but my legs didn’t!! I read all the reviews about this matteress and really wasn’t sure but I think it will be fine once I get used to it. A matteress is such a personal thing what’s soft for someone is too firm for someone else. The heavier you are the more you’ll sink into it!! We didn’t roll into one another as some people did it does say “anti -roll on it” It is different to the traditional matteress but I’m quite happy with it – no regrets!
I was suffering from back ache and after reading the reviews on this one, I thought I had nothing to lose. as stated in previous write ups, I was surprised this wee package could turn in to the mattress. There is a smell, though gets better after the first few days, but its not pleasant at the time. After the first night on it my back. Was in agony So I had to put a wooden board under the mattress to make things a little firmer and this seamed to help. though I’m not suffering back pain like I was I’m far from cured. the mattress for me is too soft to support where I feel I need supported. If it wasn’t for my back though I have to say that it is comfortable to sleep on and it does hold heat. I don’t regret the purchase. though if it softens anymore through time I will have to think about having it replaced
I purchased this 7-Zone to replace a sprung mattress that had failed after many years and was very uncomfortable. I’d heard about memory foam from friends and family who recommended them for comfort so when the time came to needing a new mattress I decided to see what was available. The mattress arrived in a box, vacuum packed and folded in half and then rolled and it is rather heavy / awkward to manoeuvre. I managed on my own but it ideally needs two people to move and unwrap. I recommend opening the package in the bedroom as once you remove the plastic wrap the mattress unrolls itself and takes its shape. I left it overnight before using to allow it to settle as per the instructions. I found there was an odour when I unpacked the mattress but this faded during the day with the window open and after a few days I could no longer detect it, so its no big deal. I have both asthma and hay fever and so the hypoallergenic properties were also a factor in me choosing it.
The mattress is extremely comfy as it moulds to your body and then returns to its original shape when you get off. I have been sleeping on it for 4 months now and cannot find a fault. I was worried that it may be too warm for me as I had heard memory foam retains heat and some people reported that their bed was too hot but personally it has not been a problem.
In summary I think it’s a good comfortable mattress that is easy to buy online due to being rolled and vacuum packed and a pleasure to sleep on. Highly recommended.
At last I can get a good nights sleep!
Have needed a new mattress for ages but being a pensioner, couldn’t afford to buy one as the mattresses I had been looking at recently were in the region of about 500-600. Then saw this one reduced from 509 down to 229 for a king sized mattress! AND with free super saver delivery to Spain (were I live). It was just too good an offer to miss, especially after reading the customer reviews! So, ordered it, recieved it in 3 days!!!! Fantastic! Unwrapped it and gave it 24 hours to air off (to get rid of the chemically smell from the memory foam) and had a fantastic night sleep! I have a bad back and normally would be in pain after about 5 hours in bed so set my alarm for 7:30 to get me up. When the alarm woke me up, I was SO comfortable that I turned the alarm off and went back to sleep until 8:45!! Absolutely unheard of for me! Because I am sleeping better, I have found that I have a lot more energy so have been going through all those little odd jobs that you never seem to round to doing! Lol! I was a little concerned that my husband would not find it comfortable but he said he slept like a log and it was the best sleep he’d had in ages too! Neither of us found it was too hot either so we are really delighted with it.
Delivered in good time and condition perfect.
Sumptuously comfortable, like sleeping on a giant marshmallow. Just wait the full 24 hours before testing!
I bought a cheap and cheerful “double guest bed” for the spare room – you know the type: a single bed, with another wee bed tucked in underneath that you can pull out and erect so that you have a double bed for the space of a single – ideal for guests.
Well when my folks and other family members come and visit, I end up sleeping in the spare bed, whilst they crash in my room in my comfortable double.
The thing about a cheap bed for the spare room is that it comes with a cheap and nasty mattress. Since I often end up sleeping on it, that’s a bad thing. Especially since I get a bad back from the wrong mattress.
This is a cheap and extremely comfortable replacement for the nightmarish (literally) spare bed. Sleeping in the spare room is now rather a pleasure! For the price, this mattress is impossible to beat!
Only thing is: do wait the full 24 hours (as recommended by the manufacturer) after rolling it out, before you test it. It is even more comfortable if you try it 24 hours later.
Yes, it does smell a bit when you first roll it out (rather like a little bag of ganja). But that smell quickly disappears. It definitely shouldn’t put you off buying this mattress. It’s really not a problem
Thoroughly recommended!
Watch the mattress expand before your eyes.
The mattress was delivered very quickly. It looked very small and i was surprised it would be for my double bed.I took it upstairs and started to take off the wrapping. Wow it filled up with air and grew into a double mattress before my eyes. The packaging was difficult to come off as the mattress had been vacuum packed. Much easier for delivery. I left the mattress on the floor overnight as recommended and then placed it on my bed for the next night.
I must admit i did not expect to notice a difference right away but had frequent surgery which has left me less mobile. The mattress seemed to close around me and i had the best night sleep in a long while.
The mattress had a strange smell but after a few days is slowly fading away.
If you have mobility problems or just find sleeping difficult i would recommend you try one.
The only disadvantage i can find is that the mattress holds my body heat and i seem to get hotter. Wont need warm quilts for the winter and probably only need a sheet now. Brilliant highly recommended.
Lovely mattress!
I would definitely recommend this mattress. We were unable to afford to replace our pocket sprung mattress and therefore began looking at the cheaper memory foam ones in the store. Still not being able to afford these, we decided to look on-line. For the price, this mattress is amazing. Although not quite as soft and squidgy as the ones in the store, it is still incredibly comfortable. I was worried that it would be too warm (we have it on a divan base rather than the recommended slats) and the first night it really was baking and I didn’t sleep well. However, from the second night onwards I have looked forward to sleeping on such a cosy mattress and now love the warmth it provides. There is a slight chemical smell which exists weeks on however, although I don’t normally cope well with either strong smells or chemicals, it has not bothered me at all.
Sleeping noticeably better than I did before
Although I would normally try out a mattress before buying it, I decided to take a chance on this one on account of all the good reviews and because of the very reasonable price. When it arrived in a rolled-up vacuum-packed state, I initially thought that I must have been sent a single rather than a double, because it just didn’t seem possible that it could be a double. Even when I opened the packaging and laid the mattress on a flat surface, it still did not look like a real double mattress. However, after leaving it for 36 hours, it grew, as if by magic, into a full-sized double mattress. Normally when I try to turn or move a double mattress, I always find it a struggle. However, this one is light and very easy to manoeuvre, which is a real plus. I therefore had no bother carrying it into my bedroom and placing it on my divan base, where it fitted perfectly. When I went to bed that night, I slept like a log the whole night. Because it is so very different from a traditional spring mattress, they warn you that it normally takes a few days to get used to it. However, although it did seem quite odd on the first night, I got used to it very quickly and, most of the time, I really do sleep noticeably better than I did before. So I have absolutely no regrets whatsoever about buying it and can see why so many people have given it such good reviews. By the way, although there was a slight odour for short time (about 12 hours or so), it quickly disappeared.
Some issues but can't complai
I have never written a review for anything but I have to say that I’ve been extremely impressed…. but not quite about this product!This was a fantastic comfy mattress when I bought it 9 months ago. However, in the last few weeks it has become saggy and my partner and I were rolling together causing back pain etc. Silentnight offer a 5 year warranty but you have to go back through the original provider and I was not hopeful of a swift resolution. I have to say I was amazed and impressed by Amazon for their dealings. Within 2 minutes of online chat a replacement had been arranged and collection of my faulty mattress at no cost to me. The replacement arrived within 48hrs! The new mattress seems excellent …. I just hope its lasts in its wonderful comfy state for longer this time!
I ordered this mattress late on Thursday and paid extra to get it delivered by 1pm on Saturday, it arrived at 8.30 Saturday morning which was brilliant.
The mattress came very nicely packaged. My children could not believe that a large mattress could come in such a small package.
We unwrapped it immediately and left to expanded in an aired / warm room. There was quite a strong chemical smell as suggested by other reviewers however by the next morning it has abaited significantly.
The instructions suggest that the matress will take 24 hrs to fully expand however as suggested by others I found that by the time I went to bed that night it was ready to sleep on and quite frankly I couldn’t resist as it looked so inviting.
I have now slept on the matress for 2 nights, my back problems seem much improved and I have not struggled from a pain perspective to get out of bed in the mornng. Biggest problem I have now, is I do not want to get out of bed as it is sooooo comfortable.
I would recommend this matress to anyone, best nights sleep I have had in years.
Delivery was very speedy. Experienced no problems with residual smells. Very comfortable indeed. It did take a couple of nights to get used to the mattress but normally on a mattress new to me (hotel for instance) I would have a very bad night. Had an all-singing all dancing Silentnight mattress already with Miracoils but it was too ‘bouncy’, although it had that ‘non roll together’ symbol. The foam mattress is a great improvement and barely registers movement. I used to wake 2 or 3 times a night … I thought for the bathroom … but now I’m waking just once so I believe I’m sleeping better. There isn’t as much memory foam as I perhaps thought/hoped but it is very comfortable.
When making the decision to buy the mattress I told my husband there were a lot of good reviews. he said reading a review couldn’t tell you whether it would be comfortable. However, i went with the majority … and it is comfortable. So a bit of a stab in the dark but not one I’ve regretted and I was very good value indeed.
Three years on and it us still, comfortable.
Four years on. I’m thinking this needs replacing. There’s definitely a hump in the middle, which isn’t hubby!
Fair enough. It wasn’t an excessively expensive mattress. I’ve spent three times the price for less comfort.
Really Comfy mattress comparing to my previous sprung mattress.
Of course it’s still a bit of a far cry from the expensive ones of this type, but if you can’t afford them this is a really good option.
I had a semi-orthopedic sprung mattress and I really hated it – it created valleys and hills, could feel every movement of my partner and I was basically forced to roll towards him as the mattress would tilt to the “heavier side”…
With this one you can forget all about it and sleep tight. Also my back pain disappeared within a week or so after using it.
It did fall quickly into shape after opening, the smell went away quite quickly. 12 hours is all you need to sleep on it.
It could be a bit thicker, but still it OK the way it is with the discounted amount I paid for it – 200.
In brief – this purchase was money VERY well spent. My partner bought a kingsize bedset from Homebase with a mattress that was actually about 40 more expensive as an all in deal – this mattress turned out to be paper thin and actually painful to lie on after 3 months. Enter the Silentnight 7-Zone memory foam mattress… it was delivered tightly rolled, we let it unfurl for 24 hours as advised, and although a little smelly at first (through draft while leaving it out to unfurl very helpful) and now we have a bed that is better and more satisfying than anything I’ve slept on before or since for an EXTREMELY reasonable price..Absolutely brilliant value and the best money I’ve spent in years…chances are if you’re looking at this item, you’re thinking about buying it. Dont think about it, just DO it, you WONT regret it. I sleep better now for the support, you very quickly get accustomed to the firm support. Only thing I can say against it is that it is quite warm…you probably wont need a high tog duvet to go with it….
We love i
I ordered this on Thursday evening and it was with us on Saturday morning – that was great. Got all the packaging off and laid the mattress on top of our old one as we had no room to put another one flat – you could actually see it expanding in front of you – which gave me an hour or so of fun 🙂
That night we made it all up after taking off the old mattress – and WOW, what a wonderful night’s sleep we had! I had been in hospital for 6 weeks and half way through I had a weekend pass home! On our old mattress I woke of a morning with terrible back pains – and that was 3 mornings on the run. Went back to hospital and the back pain stopped – came home last week and back came the terrible morning back pains. I couldn’t cope so researched this type of mattress and due to the great feedback decided that this was the one that was for us. It was a terrific choice, it’s so comfortable, it’s higher than the mattress we had which is nice – it’s also one that you don’t roll into the middle on – it’s fantastic and I would urge anyone looking for a good mattress to get this one. The price was brilliant as well, and free delivery, well, what more could a person want?
Can’t recommend it enough. This was a forced replacement for another brand new mattress that unfortunately my cat decided to ruin within weeks of buying it. Having spent more than twice the amount on that one I had to choose a cheaper option.
Firstly it is infinitely more comfortable than a spring mattress more than twice the price. It was delivered within a few days of ordering and as it was vacuum packed it was easy to take up two flights of stairs.
You can’t use it for the first night, but it is worth the wait. I used to wake up early but I’ve actually been able to have a lie in at the weekend as it is so comfortable.
There is a very slight smell, but only if you put your nose in it and try to detect it.
Moreover, unlike springs there is nothing to break. Just don’t forget you need to rotate it every week for the first three months and every month thereafter to extend its life to five years. Worth it as it is light and easy to do.
We were sleeping on an Ikea Sultana mattress, plus a 1″ foam pad on top, and my hips constantly hurt in the mornings. We added a 2″ (maybe it was 3″, not sure) memory foam pad on top, but I still woke up in pain. We went to John Lewis and were seriously considering dropping 1,700.00 for an 8000 spring mattress. However I choked on the price. Who has that kind of money? I realized this was 1/10 the price, so we decided to give it a try.
We have now been sleeping on it for over a week, and NO MORE PAIN!!! Also, I have a LOT MORE ENERGY — and who doesn’t need that? I must be getting great sleep. I wake up refreshed and energetic. I bounce to the kitchen and make my wife coffee in bed. Really. This mattress is a dream come true and a bargain to boot.
It comes all folded up, and they say to let it expand for 24 hours, but we let it fluff up for about 13 hours and it has been fine. You won’t regret this. Sorry John Lewis, you need to start carrying these.
As with other reviewers I was nervous of buying a mattress without trying first but took a view based on the reviews already submitted. It was delivered very quickly so we put it on the bed to plump up, it took a while to unpack and removing it from the packaging would have been quite difficult if my husband hadn’t been here. The mattress inflated very quickly and neither of us noted any smell, we slept in it after about 14 hours, it was a little firm but we thought it needed a little longer to fully plump up, it felt exactly the same the next night though – it certainly was NOT like sleeping on a cloud so we were a little disappointed, it’s actually quite firm – probably firmer than we’d have chosen. It IS very supportive though and we got used to the firmer feel quite quickly – although my husband still maintains it is a bit hard for him, it’s comfortable enough – if I was buying now I would definitely find somewhere to try it out first.
I bought this mattress after reading the good reviews it had,but frankly i’m a bit disappointed.I found it soft and not firm enough for my liking ,may be because I was used to my old mattress that I slept on for five years. I thought this Silentnight Mattress-Now 7-Zone Memory Foam will be extra comfortable that I would not want to leave my bed but instead i have been waking up with body aches. I’m thinking I should give it sometimes for my body to get used to and perhaps after a week or two it will get better, I have already slept four nights on it and I feel slightly better. It’s true like the gentleman said in his review that at first it’s soft when you go on it and then when you lie down it becomes firm. I like to sit on the bed when wearing shoes or socks and the fact it’s soft when you sit on,is off putting i feel like i’m sitting on a sponge.
Strange to receive it rolled up.
Strange to receive the mattress rolled up shrink wrapped in plastic bag and wondering if it will be ok time will tell, the big problem is once it is out of the packaging it will never fit back in the bag, so not sure how you could return it.
The mattress seems fine at the moment but time will tell, origianally I ordered the Kingsize one but this would of been to big and as you can’t take it out the the bag I decided to return it and order the normal double size mattress, the returns service from Amazon was really very good and collected at date and time I asked for.
I have given it 4 **** Stars the only problem is the way mattress comes shrink wrapped.
Decided to order this mattress from Amazon as it was a lot cheaper than anywhere else I had looked for the same product. Paid the extra for next day delivery, which was well worth it, got a text on the morning of the delivery day giving me a 1 hour time slot and it was with me by 9.45 am.
Openend it up straight away as other reviewers had said it takes 24 hours to regain it’s shape, on the leaflet that comes with it, it said it would regain shape faster in a warm environment so I whacked up the central heating and it was ready to go to bed on that night.
The mattress itself is so comfortable, I usualy wake in the night needing to turn over because my side is aching from laying on it for too long – not the case with this mattress, it also makes the bed feel warmer which is a bonus in cold months.
As other reviewers have stated there is a strong chemical smell when first opened but for us this had gone by the second night.
It’s worth noting as well that if you have a slatted bed like we have the minimum distance between slats has to be 70mm and the maximum 100mm, this information is not so helpfully located in the bag and only seen once you’ve opened it and once you’ve opened it there’s no sending it back.
after reading the reviews for this item including one from my sister i was expecting to sleep like a log when i got on this mattress, unfortunately not the case as it does take a bit of getting used to, at first it feels a bit hard when you lay down, not too hard but enough to notice, this was after leaving the mattress to settle for 24 hours due to it being wrapped for shipping, but now just over a week in and i have to say it feel geat, the mattress moulds your body as it should and my bottom back ache has gone which is great. i would say to leave it to settle for more than 24 hours if poss and give it a weeks trial. would of got 5 stars only for the fact that it is slightly smaller than my old kingsize mattress but not much, but a small price to pay for no back ache. thumbs up!.
Aazing value and very comfortable!
We got this mattress as we desperately needed to replace our old one but on a shoestring budget.
This ticked every box – it was cheap, easy to manouvre and above all it is supportive and comfortable. it isnt as squidgy feeling as some more expensive memory foam but i was glad of that. it is warm and feels so nice to get into – neither of us have any back ache any more the way we used to get.
We had no smell from it at all – maybe we were just lucky not sure – one negative though it is slightly smaller and the sheets to wrinkle a but due to this. small price to pay though!
If you are going from a 500 bed to this then it might not live up to your last bed but this is a good bargain that i would have paid twice the price for, sleeping like a baby now!
Just get it!
oh but dont bother paying for next day/saturday delivery – link just turn up when they want!
I’ve now had this mattress for 3 weeks and am 100% happy.
Like some of the other reviews it does smell a bit but that left after a few days, just leave the window open in the room.
The mattress is firm yet comfortable, i usually struggle with sleeping on my front as it creates a bend in the small of my back….this mattress is firm enough to support me in this possition!
all in all for the rediculously low price, you cannot go wrong!! this is my permenant mattress, not just something i’ve thrown in the spare room for guests to fight with!
The only down side is it’s about 3cm too small for the width of a standard double bed….but that’s minor as it’s just me in the double bed!
Conclusion = Get it, you will not be dissapointed =D
We ordered this silentnight 3-zone memory foam bed to replace our 4 year old year old (not cheap) orthopeadic bed, which while ok for back, was painful for shoulders and arms (We both woke up with cramps in). Reason is old one had too much firmness for upper body.
This new robust bed does not cause same ‘cramp’ issues so we are highly pleased. Price was good and delivery fine. Maybe too much wrapping on product, but no big deal. Would say this bed is 4.75 stars, maybe 5. Comfortable for ALL the body,and we like it a lot. I have a dicky back and still no problem, but great for arms, shoulders, etc. We are in our 50’s and so comfort and support count. Also has good warranty. All new beds take a few days or a week to get used to. In summary, this is probably the best foam double-bed size matress for price, i.e. not too hard not too soft.
Having used the spring mattress and sustained the backache for months, I bought this Silentnight Now Memory Foam Mattress as an option to end the trauma. And I must say I made the right decision.
I was wary of buying a mattress online as I would not get to know if I will be comfortable with it. So I checked out few memory foam mattresses in retail shops and then spoke to the customer advisor at Silent Night. They were very helpful in explaining the difference in the mattresses.
It was a different experience for a day or two, as we were used to the bouncing effects of a spring mattress. But this mattress provides firm support and does not roll your partner when you move. In short – it does what it says on the tin.
Though many customers say that this becomes too hot, I did not feel this variably. Being very sensitive to changing mattresses, I must say this is an excellent product for some one who does not like to bouncing effect and needs a little firm surface to have a peaceful sleep !!
Delivery was fine as it was through Amazon. Though City Link delivered it with a neighbor as I was not at home, still no problems so far with Amazon’s customer service. It makes sense to pay a little more for anything that is sold by Amazon directly and not a third party seller. Customer service is prompt and always satisfactory.
Recommend buying Silent night Mattress protector Quilted One (Not Waterproof – as Waterproof supposedly creates more heat).
Updated review: I bought this over 5 years ago and it feels the same as it did then, so pleased as I was so dubious with it being cheap. My husband had problems (and an operation) on his back in the meantime when he then found it a bit too firm for him, so we then got a good topper and it’s now softer and more comfortable for us. We have a slatted base and found it fine, have had no problem with sagging and I don’t understand when people say it is thin, maybe they received a different product? It may be that the quality has changed within the 5 years, but ours has been really good and there are no signs of it wearing out or sagging yet!
I was not too sure when buying this, as all the advice says to try out a mattress before you buy and I wasn’t so pleased at first as I could feel a slight roll together with my partner. We then realised that our divan base despite looking flat, wasn’t completely so we tried it on a wooden slatted base and it is so much better! We had not had a memory foam mattress before, but now could not do without and are completely hooked and do not have as many aches as before. I do suspect that you could easily find better for a higher price, but we are very happy for the amount we paid.
