When it comes to replace that old mattress and buy a new one, Millbrook Beds is one of the best manufacturers to choose. Well known in the UK for more than 60 years, this company produces beds utilising the finest filling materials, time-honoured, traditional methodology and a superior system of pocket spring support.

But with so many fantastic models to choose from, how can you decide which is best for you and your sleeping habits? We have compiled this guide to help you sort through the options.

Shopping for a New Mattress

There are three major factors to consider when shopping for a new mattress: type, price, and size.

The type refers to the support of the mattress. Do you prefer a soft, cushy foundation or one that is very firm and provides orthopaedic support? Lightweight sleepers will feel the firmness more than their heavier counterparts so a medium level of comfort might be better for smaller people. A higher number of springs usually equals a firmer mattress.

Of course, there are a wide range of prices depending on what type of mattress you desire. Generally, the larger number of springs in the bed and the higher quality of materials and details will cost more. But do remember that quality usually equals durability and a top-of-the-line mattress is likely to last longer, making it an excellent investment.

Finally, size is the last factor to consider. You may be constrained by the space in your bedroom. If you sleep with a partner, you are more likely to prefer a double or king. Tall people or those who like to spread out across the mattress will probably opt for a super king.

The Royal Mattresses

Millbrook are known for producing luxurious mattresses and their most luxurious mattresses are given royal names. The three main mattresses in this range are the Millbrook Countess, Millbrook Duchess, and Millbook Marquess mattress.

Firm Orthopaedic Support – the Ortho Elite 2000

If you are often troubled by neck pain or back aches, you will prefer the firm support of the Ortho Elite 2000 from Millbrook. Featuring 2,000 individually encased pocket springs (in the king-sized model), this is the best bed when you desire a support system that encourages proper spinal alignment.

The Best of Everything – the Passion 2500

When you want to treat yourself to the best night’s sleep money can buy, consider opting for the Passion 2500. In addition to its 2,500 pocket springs in double layers, this mattress with medium support features all the little details that define a high quality bed. These include three rows of hand stitching, suitcase-style handles, layers of the finest lamb’s wool, silk, and cotton, and a cushy 26.7 centimetres in depth.

Hypoallergenic: the Royal 1400

Do you suffer from allergies? Then the Royal 1400 mattress from Millbrook is the perfect choice. Made with a hypoallergenic interliner and natural materials, this mattress repels dust and mites. It also features extra air vents along each side – a total of 16 – to help the materials breathe and discourage the build-up of moisture and humidity.

With all of the great mattresses offered by Millbrook you are sure to find one that is perfect for you and your needs, whether you suffer from back pain or allergies or even if you just want the best money can buy.

Two other popular Millbrook mattresses are the Oak 2000 and the Royal 3000 mattresses.
