Memory Foam Mattresses: Shop Cool Gel, Pocket Sprung & Hybrid Memory Foam Mattresses at Super Beds
A memory foam mattress moulds to your body instead of pushing back against it, easing pressure points and cutting down on the tossing and turning that comes with a mattress that doesn’t quite fit your shape. It’s one of the most popular mattress types in the UK for exactly this reason.
At Super Beds, our memory foam mattresses UK range covers everything from a soft, cloud-like feel to a firmer, pocket sprung memory foam build with proper edge support. Every mattress comes with a 5 year manufacturer’s guarantee and fast delivery across the UK, so you can get a better night’s sleep without the wait.

Shop Memory Foam Mattresses by Type
Gel Memory Foam Mattresses: A gel memory foam mattress infuses cooling gel beads or a gel layer into the foam itself, helping draw heat away from the body as you sleep. Our Arctic Cool Gel Memory 3000 Mattress and Regal Cool Gel Memory 1000 Mattress are both built this way, giving a cool gel memory mattress feel with high support underneath, ideal if you tend to sleep hot.
Pocket Sprung Memory Foam Mattresses: A pocket sprung memory foam mattress combines individually wrapped springs with a memory foam comfort layer on top, giving you targeted support plus the pressure-relieving feel of foam. Our Heritage 2000 Pocket Sprung Memory Foam Mattress and Supreme 1000 Pocket Sprung Memory Foam Mattress both use this hybrid memory foam mattress build, blending bounce and contouring in one.
Memory Spring Mattresses: A more traditional open coil base topped with a memory foam layer, like our Harmony Memory Spring Mattress, offers a softer overall feel at a more accessible price point than a full pocket sprung build.
Pillow Top Memory Foam Mattresses: For an extra plush surface layer, a pillow top memory foam mattress adds a padded quilted layer on top of the foam and spring base. Our Majestic Memory Pocket 1000 Pillow Top Mattress combines this softer top layer with pocket springs underneath for a more luxurious feel.
Luxury Cloud Mattresses: If you want the softest option in the range, our Luxury Cloud Mattress is designed to feel like sinking gently into cloud-like comfort, while still offering enough underlying support to keep your spine properly aligned.

Memory Foam Mattresses by Size
- Memory foam mattress single: a memory foam mattress single size suits box rooms, guest rooms, or a single sleeper who wants extra pressure relief without needing a bigger bed.
- Memory foam mattress double: the standard choice for couples or a shared bedroom, giving enough width for two sleepers without either person feeling the other move.
- Memory foam mattress king size: extra length and width for larger primary bedrooms, popular with taller sleepers or anyone who prefers more space to stretch out.
- Super king memory foam mattresses: the most spacious option in the range, ideal for couples who value room to move without disturbing each other overnight.

Finding the Right Firmness
Soft memory foam mattress: if you like the feeling of gently sinking in, our Luxury Cloud Mattress and Majestic Pillow Top Mattress lean towards a softer overall feel while still supporting your spine properly underneath.
Medium firm memory foam mattress: a good middle ground for most sleepers, our Heritage 2000 Pocket Sprung Memory Foam Mattress balances contouring comfort with enough push-back to avoid feeling like you’re sinking too far in.
Firm memory foam mattress: if you prefer a more supportive, structured feel, our Regal Cool Gel Memory 1000 and Supreme 1000 Pocket Sprung Memory Foam Mattress both offer firmer support, often a good match for back or stomach sleepers.
Orthopaedic memory foam mattress: for anyone managing back pain or recovering from injury, a firmer, more structured build is generally recommended by physiotherapists, since it keeps the spine better aligned than a very soft mattress can.
Memory foam mattress for back pain: if lower back pain is your main concern, look for a mattress with a firmer base layer and consistent support across the whole surface, rather than a very soft, sink-in feel that can let your hips drop out of alignment overnight.
Things to Check Before You Buy a Memory Foam Mattress Online
- Check the depth and layers: a thicker memory foam layer generally means more pressure relief, but pairing it with a supportive base, like pocket springs, stops it feeling like you’re sinking too far.
- Think about temperature: if you sleep hot, look for a cool gel memory mattress or breathable memory foam mattress with a ventilated cover, rather than a dense all-foam build that can trap heat.
- Match firmness to your sleep position: side sleepers often prefer a softer memory foam mattress, while back and stomach sleepers usually do better with a medium-firm memory foam mattress or firmer orthopaedic build.
- Look for a removable cover: a memory foam mattress with a cover that unzips for washing makes ongoing care far easier than a fixed, non-removable design.
A Note on Mattress Toppers
Already have a mattress you’re happy with but want a softer top layer? A memory foam mattress topper adds a thinner layer of foam over your existing mattress rather than replacing the whole thing. We currently focus on full memory foam mattresses rather than standalone toppers, so if you’re after that extra layer of comfort without a full replacement, our sales team can point you toward the best option for your setup; just get in touch before you order.
Delivery, Guarantee and Aftercare
Every memory foam mattress at Super Beds comes with a 5 year manufacturer’s guarantee against structural faults, so you’re covered well beyond the standard return window. Fast delivery is available on many in-stock mattresses, with UK-wide shipping covering England, Scotland, and Wales. If anything arrives damaged or doesn’t match the listing, our support team sorts out a replacement quickly rather than leaving you chasing an inbox for weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best memory foam mattress UK sleepers usually recommend for back pain?
There’s no single answer, since the right mattress depends on your sleep position and the exact nature of your discomfort. Generally, a firmer, more supportive memory foam mattress, such as an orthopaedic or pocket sprung memory foam build, is better suited to back pain than a very soft, sink-in style mattress.
What’s the difference between a memory foam mattress and a pocket sprung memory foam mattress?
A standard memory foam mattress typically sits over a foam or open coil base, while a pocket sprung memory foam mattress uses individually wrapped springs beneath the foam layer. The springs respond independently to your body’s movement, often giving a more supportive, breathable feel than an all-foam design.
Do cool gel memory foam mattresses actually sleep cooler?
Yes, generally. A cool gel memory mattress infuses gel into the foam structure, which helps draw heat away from the body more effectively than standard memory foam alone. It won’t feel cold to the touch, but it should reduce the overheating that dense all-foam mattresses are sometimes known for.
How firm should a memory foam mattress be?
It depends on your sleep position and body weight. Side sleepers often prefer a softer or medium firm memory foam mattress to cushion the shoulders and hips, while back and stomach sleepers generally benefit from a firmer, more structured build for better spinal support.
Can I buy a memory foam mattress topper instead of a full mattress?
We currently sell full memory foam mattresses rather than standalone toppers. If you’re happy with your existing base and only want to add a softer top layer, get in touch with our support team and we can point you in the right direction.
