Extra-Firm Mattresses FAQs

Have a different question? Read our handy

mattress buying guide.

1. What are the benefits of an extra-firm mattress?

Compared to our other mattresses, an extra-firm option provides a more stable foundation while you sleep. Perfect for those who prefer to sleep on their front or back, these mattresses can help to encourage good posture at night, so you’re less likely to wake up with spinal pain. Our mattress buying guide can help you decide which mattress firmness is ideal for your preferred style of sleep.

2. What brands of extra-firm mattresses are available?

You’ll find the best extra-firm mattresses in the UK in our collection, with options from the biggest mattress brands in the industry. Our Somnus mattresses provide luxury comfort in a choice of firmness levels, while our Simba mattresses feature cutting-edge technology to help regulate temperature and relieve pressure as you sleep.

3. Why choose an extra-firm mattress?

Extra-firm mattresses are ideal for heavier individuals or for those looking for back support while they sleep. They are also more resistant to sagging, making them a more durable option for anyone seeking a long-lasting mattress.

4. What extra-firm mattress sizes are there?

Our mattresses are available in many sizes, so no matter how big or small your bedroom is, you’ll find an ideal fit. Our extra-firm double mattresses, for example, are an excellent choice for couples looking to save space in their bedroom.

Alternatively, if you’re looking to refresh your sleep space with a new mattress, why not make a statement by sizing up? Our extra-firm king mattresses and super king mattresses have all the space you need to spread out and move around at night.

5. Is an extra-firm mattress better for your back?

A mattress that offers firm support can help to keep your spine well-aligned while you sleep, encouraging good posture and alleviating back pain. If other mattress firmnesses leave you waking up with a sore back, an extra-firm option could help.

Want to spread the cost of your mattress across multiple payments? Check out our range of finance options, featuring both interest-free and classic credit (9.9% APR representative) to help you manage your budget. You can also choose between 6, 10, and 12-month payment plans for extra flexibility.
