Getting a good night's sleep can prove quite difficult heading into the warmer months, so we tasked one of our review writers to find one with not just cooling properties, but one that will surely beat her 15-year-old mattress on all the comfort levels.
I’d moved up in the world from a single bunk bed to a small double which, at the time, was a major upgrade - but as the years went on, the filling had gone lumpy and uneven, I was tossing and turning in the night, waking up with back ache, and longing for the next staycation where I would be able to melt into the comfort of a hotel bed.
Delivery of my mattress was a really smooth experience, having been text a two-hour time slot 24 hours ahead of the arrival. Dreams also deliver their mattresses to a room of your choice, and charge £55 to remove your old one. This is then fully recycled, with the springs being melted back down to reuse, while the fillings are turned into pet beds.
As someone who struggles with backache, I was very excited about the adaptive support technology and pressure relief. The medium-firm comfort grade of this mattress is like a sweet spot between cloud-like softness and sturdy support, with the NASA-developed technology giving it a weightless feel. The Pro Air SmartCool Plus is part of Tempur's coolest-ever mattress range. The cover has an immediate cooling effect when you lie on it, which you can still feel the effects of through a fitted sheet. It works to transfer heat away from the body while you sleep to keep you cool and comfortable through the night .
When testing out a mattress, it definitely takes more than one night to decide if it’s right for you, so Dreams gives shoppers a 100-Night Comfort Guarantee, which gives you just over three months to decide if you like it or not.
