What to look for

Firmness is personal; a long home trial matters more than the spring count.

Models worth comparing

Budget

Origin Hybrid

Couples wanting a supportive boxed hybrid with good edge support and a long trial without paying premium prices.

Five-zone steel coil springs with bamboo-infused wool and cooling foam
200-night home trial and 15-year warranty
Reviewers noted little motion transfer between partners

Watch out for: It leans firm and has no handles, so lighter side sleepers may want something softer.

Type: Hybrid (zoned coil springs and foam)
Depth: 26cm
Firmness: Medium-firm (6-7 out of 10)
Trial: 200 nights
Warranty: 15 years

Sold by Origin, not on Amazon.

Hot sleepers and side or back sleepers who want a slightly softer hybrid with cooling foam.

Seven-zone pocket springs under graphite-infused ThermoSync foam
Reviewers found it cooled down faster than rivals tested
Removable cover can be machine washed at 40°C

Watch out for: It is softer than some Emma models, so people who like a firm mattress may find it lacks support.

Type: Hybrid (7-zone pocket springs and foam)
Depth: 27cm
Firmness: Medium
Trial: 200 nights
Warranty: 10 years

Back sleepers and anyone who likes a firm, very supportive mattress that stays cool.

Pocket springs with bamboo-infused foam layers
Reviewers measured little sinkage, showing strong support
Bamboo-blend cover is machine washable

Watch out for: Quite firm for side sleepers, and reviewers found the cover awkward to take off and put back on.

Trial: 100 nights
Warranty: 10 years

Eight layers including British wool and two layers of Aerocoil microsprings
Up to 4,800 springs in total with a pocket-sprung base
