Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress is one of Silentnight’s most popular products – and for a good reason. Today, we’ve decided to put this hybrid mattress to the test and to see for ourselves whether 1000 pocket springs paired with memory foam should become a part of your bedroom or not. Let’s begin! 

Who is Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress for?

Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress is a medium-firm hybrid mattress, meaning it should, at least on paper, be suitable for pretty much everyone.

Full-sized pocket springs should support your weight even if you lie on the stomach, side or back. Add memory foam to the mix, and you'll see just how versatile this hybrid mattress really is.

• All sleep positions

What do we use this product for?

Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress should be the mattress that graces your master bedroom. It’s supportive and comfortable enough so that you’ll be able to use it on a regular basis, and if you’re sleeping with a partner, you’ll be pleased to know that individual pocket springs alongside a layer of memory foam provide good motion isolation, so that both you and your partner can get a disturbance-free good night’s sleep. This Hybrid mattress is for sleepers who:

• Are combination sleepers
• Want motion isolation
• Need a supportive and comfortable mattress
• Want more breathability while sleeping
• Want to reduce their pain in the core areas.

Features you should know about Silentnight Just Snug Memory mattress

As you know, every mattress is a story for itself, and that is the case for the Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress. To fully understand just what makes this one special, we’ve decided to talk a little bit about its unique features.

1000 full size pocketed springs

Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress comes with 1000 full-sized Miracoil pocket springs. These Miracoil springs not only offer excellent full-body support, but since we're looking at the springs that move individually and separately, the Miracoil pocket spring support layer also offers a lot of comfort.  Each of the pocket spring individually responds to your movement which also improves the mattress's contouring capabilities so that you can just as comfortably sleep on your side, as well as your back and stomach.

2cm of memory foam for pressure relief

On top of the Miracoil pocket spring layer, we can find a 2 cm thick layer of premium memory foam. This memory foam layer is soft and cosy, and when paired with pocket springs, it’ll bring you joy and comfort and a soothing pressure relief all throughout the night.  The best thing about this memory foam layer is that it is pressure relieving. Even though it is only 2 cm thick, it will contour and cradle your body effortlessly, providing pressure relief in the core areas where you need it the most.

Premium memory foam

The quality of memory foam is something that is often overlooked. In the case of this Just Snug mattress, we’re dealing with a premium memory foam that is durable, long-lasting, soft and comfortable, and most importantly, free of any potentially harmful chemicals. Another advantage of using only a 2 cm thick layer of memory foam is the lack of unpleasant odours upon unpacking. This means that you will be able to sleep on this mattress only a few hours after you remove it out of the box and roll it out.

3D breathable fabrics

Silentnight has incorporated their uniquely structured 3D breathable fabrics into their Hybrid mattress. This three-dimensional fabric is not only soft and smooth to the touch, but it is also wonderfully crafted to help regulate temperature. Pair that up with full-sized pocket springs and a thin layer of memory foam, and you'll have yourself a mattress that keeps you cool during the summer and warm in the winter. 

Rolled & vacuum-sealed

As is often the case with hybrid mattresses, your Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress will come rolled and vacuum-sealed. This not only benefits easier shipping and transportation but also helps keep the mattress in perfect condition while it is being delivered. Seeing how this mattress is mostly made up of pocket springs, once you roll it out, it’ll be only a few hours until it is fully expanded and ready to be slept on.

Non-removable knitted cover

This mattress is encased in a breathable, knitted 3D fabric cover, but the cover is non-removable. Unfortunately, this means that you won't be able to zip off the mattress cover and wash it in your washing machine. 

However, just because it is non-removable does not mean it is not high-quality. In fact, this knitted cover is as great as they come. It’s soft to the touch, pleasant on your skin, and beautifully designed. And, if you ever become too worried about staining it – just put the mattress protector on top of it.

365-nights trial period

All of Silentnight’s Just Sleep products come with a year long trial period. When you purchase Silentnight Hybrid mattress, you will have 365 nights to try it out and see if you've made the right choice. If, by any chance, this mattress doesn't prove to be comfortable and supportive enough for you, you can return it within the trial period, and exchange it for a different mattress from their catalogue.

25cm of mattress’ depth

It is widely regarded that the ideal depth for a mattress is somewhere between 20 and 30 cm, and Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress fall right in the middle. At 25 cm, this mattress is perfect, depth-wise, for many obvious reasons.

 Most fitted sheets should effortlessly fit it, it won't be too thin so that you would feel the base of the bed, and it won’t be too thick so that you have to hop on and off the bed every time you want to lie down.

5-year warranty

Finally, Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress comes with a 5-year warranty. This 5-year warranty will have you covered for any defects and manufacturing errors that could jeopardize the integrity of your mattress.  The warranty won’t cover for user negligence, so make sure you don’t stain or rip your mattress as that will void the warranty immediately. Also, make sure you rotate it once a month, as that is also something you’ll need to do if you don’t want to void the 5-year warranty.

Review of Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress

Now, for the icing on the cake – the review of Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress.

As expected, Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress is a mattress pretty much everyone will be able to enjoy. It is a medium-soft hybrid mattress, rated at around 5.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale, so most people will be able to comfortably enjoy it.

The springs felt great. They were supportive, but not firm to the point of discomfort. They were completely silent, and even when we've moved around quite a bit, we couldn't hear a sound. Naturally, the mattress was pretty cool to sleep on, as there’s just not enough foam in it to keep things toasty.

Check pricing and availability

On the other hand, even with only 2 cm of memory foam, the pressure relief and motion isolation were, dare we say, excellent. To be fair, most of this is due to the brilliant Miracoil pocket spring base, but the foam manages to help quite a bit. The foam layer delivers both breathability and good level of support, which is crucial for a proper night's sleep.

As far as the drawbacks go, we’ve noticed that it felt quite soft when we were sitting or sleeping near the edge. Lack of edge support is a common problem with these kinds of mattresses, but other than that – there were no real disadvantages to this one.

What we like about Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress

• A true medium firm support mattress that should be a good fit for everyone
• It could turn out to be great for back and joint pain due to very good pressure relief properties
• It will be cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

Why we didn’t like Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress

• Edge support is not good enough, and sleeping next to the edge could be uncomfortable for many
• Often sold-out and not available due to high demand
• Non-removable cover, non-machine washable cover.

Silentnight's customer service and company information

Delivery – There is free shipping available and the delivery is within 5 working days.
Payment – You can pay with standard card payments, as well as split payments using Klarna or SplitIt.
Customer service – On their website, there is an email address and phone number for you to contact with any query you may have. In addition to this, there is a live chat but it does require a name and email. Although it is named a live chat, they aim to respond within 24-48 hours. The office hours are only Monday-Friday, unlike other companies who are available 24/7. This can make contacting them difficult if you are needing an immediate response.

What makes this product better than some other similar ones?

We feel like the strongest suit of Silentnight Just Snug Memory Hybrid mattress lies in its simplicity. Unlike many other memory foam mattresses (compare them with our new mattress comparison tool) that go over the top with a plethora of different layers, patented technologies and so on, here we have a simple, 2-layer hybrid mattress that brings exactly the same to the table without any gimmicks or false advertising. Pocket springs and a little bit of foam – that's all you need. The superior spinal alignment will convince you to buy this mattress as it really provides you with a healthy body positioning that results in a comfortable night's sleep.

How did we test the product?

As we usually do, before we begin our testing, we like to get our hands on the product. Therefore, the first thing we did was to go online and place an order. Four days and one free delivery later – we’ve had our new mattress in the office.

The first thing we noticed upon unpacking this rolled & vacuum-sealed hybrid was the complete absence of off-gassing. As expected, the mattress was in perfect condition, and after only a few hours, it had fully expanded, and we were ready to test it out.

Each of our team members had spent ten nights with this one. We've tested it on a slatted base, firm base, in both hot and chilly rooms, with and without a sleeping partner and so on. All of these steps have allowed us to present you with this as-objective-as-possible review.

Naturally, it wouldn’t be a complete review if we didn’t rest this mattress’s durability. We’ve done the roller test, we’ve done the kettlebell test, and we’re pleased to say that this one is quite durable. There were no signs of early deterioration or sinkage, so we feel like it’s safe to say that this one will outlive its 5-year warranty.
