Overview
Silentnight is the UK’s most trusted sleep brand and has been a certified “Superbrand” for the last 13 years. Since the company was born in 1946, Silentnight has been offered UK-designed and produced beds and mattresses. With more than 50 mattress models, they offer the perfect mattress for all sleepers.
Construction
Silentnight offers 53 unique mattress models featuring one or more of the company’s trademark comfort fillings and, for hybrid mattress, one of two support systems.
Support Systems
Miracoil advanced open coil spring system – models featuring the open-coil spring system include 323 springs, providing outstanding support and spinal alignment to maximize sleeping space and prevent partner “roll together.”
Mirapocket spring system – individually wrapped coils provide zoned support and even weight distribution to facilitate movement and improve spinal alignment.
Comfort Fillings
Geltex – Silentnight’s patented gel-infused comfort filling is designed to energise sleepers so they feel rejuvenated upon waking. Offers optimal pressure relief and “bounce-back” to make getting in and out of bed easy.
Eco Comfort – uses sustainably-sourced, recycled materials to provide a breathable and purifying sleep experience. Eco comfort mattresses are 100% recyclable, each containing the equivalent of 150 recyclable plastic bottles.
Memory Foam – Designed for body moulding so you sleep snug. It absorbs your weight to you can sink into the mattress. Silentnight memory foam is highly responsive and offers pressure relief in problem areas like hips and shoulders.
Natural – Using natural silk, wool, and cashmere fibres, natural mattresses offer temperature regulation throughout all seasons. These mattresses are hand-tufted for extra comfort and are naturally eco-friendly and flame retardant.
Latex – Made from durable materials, latex mattresses last long without compromising on pressure relief. This comfort filling offers easy movement, so that even the most restless sleepers wake up feeling fully rested.
Mattress Cover
Mattress covers vary by model, but they are always flame retardant, hypoallergenic.
Sleep surfaces are usually made of synthetic blends treated with Silentnight’s signature Purotex treatments to reduce moisture and dust mites and keep your mattress healthier, longer.
No mattress cover is removable, so using a removable, washable mattress protector is recommended.
Firmness, Feel & Support
Silentnight is dedicated to providing a mattress to meet every sleeper’s needs, which is why their mattresses come in a range of five different firmness ratings, including medium/soft, medium, medium/firm, firm, and extra firm.
Medium/soft – best for side sleepers who want to sink into the mattress while still receiving vital support.
Medium – the most popular choice among customers. Silentnight calls their medium mattress the “goldilocks of comfort ratings,” as its neither too soft nor too firm.
Medium/firm – the best choice for combination sleepers
Firm – suited to sleepers who require extra support, such as those with a larger stature and back and stomach sleepers.
Extra-firm – also called “orthopaedic,” the extra firm mattress offers the sturdiest base to align the spine.
Purchase & Delivery Process
In addition to purchasing online, Silentnight mattresses are available at multiple physical locations, including showrooms, national retailers, and local independent sellers.
When ordering online, customers choose the model and size mattress and add it to their basket. For an additional charge of £30.00, they may choose to have their old mattress removed and the new mattress installed.
Delivery is free within the UK for orders over £49. Silentnight mattresses come with standard delivery from 14 days, and two delivery people will take the mattress to your room of choice and remove the wrapping. With Silentnight’s 60-night trial, customers can choose to exchange their mattress for a different model if they are unsatisfied with their purchase. For full refunds, customers must contact support within 14 days of delivery.

Final Word
There are three main reasons to choose Silentnight mattresses. The first is that they offer a truly unparalleled variety of mattress models, accommodating all types and sizes of sleeper, including babies and children. The second reason to choose their mattresses is because they come at an unbeatable price point. Even their most deluxe mattresses pale in price compared to other mattresses on the market. The final reason to choose Silentnight is that, as a brand, they uphold strong values related to workers’ rights and conditions, equal work opportunity, and sustainable production.
That said, their mattresses may not last as long as competing mattresses and their limited warranty doesn’t guarantee coverage in case of normal wear and tear. Overall, Silentnight is a good budget option for mattress shoppers.
