  • You want to spend less: it's £11 cheaper at £399.
  • Comfort matters most: it scores 8.0 vs 7.6.
  • You want a softer bed (medium), e.g. as a side sleeper.

What we like

  • 1000 pocket springs at £399 with a 28cm build
  • Reflex foam comfort layer gives support without the sink of memory foam
  • Good edge support and airflow from the spring core

What could be better

  • Support matters most: it scores 8.9 vs 8.2.
  • You want a firmer bed (firm), e.g. for back or front sleeping.
  • You prefer close-contouring pressure relief and very little motion transfer for couples.

What we like

  • Support score of 8.9 with an active cooling layer – a rare combination
  • Solves the classic orthopaedic problem of firm foam sleeping hot
  • High-density reflex foam for genuine orthopaedic support

What could be better

  • Comfort score of 7.6 – firm, and side sleepers will struggle
  • The Majestic 11000 gives higher support for around £90 less
