Silentnight Geltex Ultra 3000 Mattress Review

The main feature of this hybrid mattress have to be 2000 individually nested, full-sized Mirapocket pocket springs.

The Mirapocket support system offers excellent and tailored support, weight distribution, and supports adequate spinal alignment, regardless of your sleeping position. Therefore, the Mirapocket zoned springs adjust to your body and therefore offer the ultimate comfort.

As every pocket spring is able to move independently from one another, you can expect tailored and personalised support and comfort at any given position. There is no need to get a mattress topper to make sure you get more support – as this memory foam mattress in combination with springs gives everything you need for a good sleep.

On top of the Mirapocket pocket spring support system layer, we can see another layer of individually nested pocket springs, only this time in a smaller form factor.

The Ultraflex layer is composed out of 1000 mini pocket springs that provide you with additional support and contribute to creating a motion-free sleeping surface.

The fact that these pocket springs are so small is their biggest advantage. Due to their small size, they are only able to shrink and expand so much, and that is precisely what makes motion isolation so good with this mattress. Therefore, a good night's sleep is guaranteed.

Instead of regular memory foam, Geltex Ultra 3000 mattress comes with a gel-infused comfort filling layer for improved breathability and airflow, as well as additional comfort.

Appropriately named Geltex, this 11 cm deep layer is designed to achieve optimal airflow and active cooling, all while being responsive and flexible at the same time. So, not only will you sleep cool, but you’ll also sleep comfy and cosy.

Silentnight Geltex Ultra 3000 mattress comes with a non-removable cover, but for a very good reason.

The cover of this mattress is a hand-tufted sleep surface that contributes to a to firmer feel and adds some extra support. But that's not all there is to it.

The entirety of this cover has been treated with Purotex, which is what makes this mattress hypoallergenic. Since this cover is anti-allergenic, anti-bacterial and anti-dust-mite, you won’t have to worry about losing your precious sleep if you’re one of the people struggling with allergies. Fresher night's sleep is exactly what you get!

This is a massive mattress, to say the least. It is 37 cm deep, and depending on the size, it can weigh over 55 kg. It’s safe to say that rotating this mattress would be pretty much impossible without the side handles. Fortunately, Silentnight Geltex Ultra 3000 Mattress does come with side handles, but still – don’t expect to be able to rotate this mattress single-handedly. You will most definitely need an extra pair of hands, even with these nifty side handles.

Fortunately for you and your back, this giant of a mattress is single-sided. You won't ever have to flip or turn it. The only maintenance you'll ever have to do is rotate the mattress heat-to-toe once every three months, and that's it.

If you want, you can rotate the mattress once a month for the first three or four months, just to ensure even break-in.

To be perfectly candid, rotating isn’t optional – it’s required. If you want to keep your warranty and your mattress in good shape – you will have to do it.

The blessing and the curse of this mattress is its giant form factor. Weighing in over 55 kilos and standing at 37 cm tall, this deep mattress might be a problem if you don't have a sturdy bed frame, to begin with.

Also, if you have bad knees or you’re a senior citizen, keep the height in mind, as it might prove to be quite difficult to climb on and off the mattress if you place it on a tall bed frame.

Also, most fitted sheets or mattress protectors won’t fit, so that’s another thing to keep in mind. you'll have to go with deep-fit sheets.

On the bright side of things, the mattress looks really imposing, and this level of depth certainly contributes to its durability and longevity. Just consider some deep fitted sheets tp make everything luxurious and elegant.

Finally, if you are eco-conscious and vegan, you'll be pleased to know that not one bit of this mattress or its materials have been tested on animals or have come from an animal source. Geltex Ultra 3000 Mattress is as vegan as a mattress can be.
