The Black Friday Simba sale is the best we've seen all year. Here's what to shop
Simba mattresses used to be discounted all the time - in fact, it used to be more likely that you'd log on to the site and find something on sale than you would ever see one of the brand's items at full price. These days, though, the mattress world has changed, and so too has the frequency of more mattress sales. Any kind of deal has been impossible to source this year. This makes the launch of Simba's Black Friday mattress sale even more exciting.
What are the best Black Friday Simba deals?
Having lost many hours of sleep to shoddy products it's only too obvious that you need to invest in your mattress. However, the world of mattresses often feels difficult to penetrate as we stumble across jargon such as ‘pocketed coils’–and gauging the value proposition of a pricey Simba mattress versus a more affordable product is nigh impossible online. That's where the House & Garden team comes in. We've put Simba, the highly awarded sleep brand to the test so you don’t have to. Below, we break down the best Simba mattresses to buy, from the Simba Hybrid Pro Mattress to the Simba Hybrid Ultra Mattress.
27% off Simba Hybrid Pro Mattress
Slice the Simba Hybrid Pro down the middle and you’ll discover two layers of an intricate network of zoned and patented titanium springs (4,800 to be exact) amongst 8 layers of precision engineered body - and sleep - supporting materials. If sharing your bed like our tester you’ll find the ‘edge-to-edge’ layer truly effective for enjoying undisturbed sleep. Plus, there’s a cosy wool layer that isn’t just a must-have for allergy sufferers, but is also useful for moisture management and breathability. This model comes with a handy zip-off breathable cover. Throw it in the wash to keep your mattress clean and fresh.
- Pro: Bang in the middle of Simba’s hybrid mattress price structure (there are five options ranging from ‘Essential’ to ‘Ultra’, this is a good pick for balancing value with price point if budget is a consideration.
- Con: The Simba mattress range isn’t cheap and so, even this price tag might be out of the scope if you are used to spending £300 on a mattress. Fortunately, Simba also sells refurbished models to make refreshing sleep that much more attainable.
30% off Simba Hybrid Luxe Mattress
If, as one tester shared, the Simba Hybrid Pro’s double layer of 4,800 patented springs makes sleeping a dream, then what happens with a 5,700 count triple spring layer? Well, the Simba Hybrid Luxe Mattress happens, and as our well-travelled tester confirms, this premium mattress doesn’t only feel luxurious but it has increased their tracked REM sleep by a whopping 30%. With 9 layers in total, including one composed of skin positive wool and bamboo, this medium firm mattress is designed to be the top choice for airflow and pressure point relief.
- Pro: A fantastic amount of sleep engineering has gone into this mattress and our tester, one year on, is still experiencing a proven improvement in deep sleep as a result.
- Con: Whilst 9 layers of sleep engineering makes for beautifully cocooned sleep, it also means the Simba Hybrid Luxe Mattress is 31cm deep. Be prepared to invest in a collection of deeper fitted sheets.
25% off Simba Hybrid Essential Mattress
Simba definitely ranges into the luxury realm of the mattress world, but it also has a very impressive entry-level, affordable mattress too - the Hybrid Essential. Not to be overlooked for being quite a bit cheaper than the Luxe, Ultra and Pro, the Essential incorporates all of the core elements of the Hybrids, but purely that. It's the crux of the design, the crucial innovation features, but then none of the add ons that make the others progressively more luxe. There are only four layers, but you still get the Simbatex foam, the Aerocoil microsprings and the zoned support.
- Pros: The biggest pro here is the affordability, especially with 25% off for Black Friday. A double is just under £500, but still with all of the key Simba design elements.
- Cons: It's a bit thinner than some of the other mattresses, and you sometimes notice movement a bit more than you do with the Pro. If you can afford to upgrade, it is definitely worth it, but this is still a decent mattress.
30% off Simba Hybrid Ultra Mattress
Does anyone really need 11 layers of mattress ‘stuff’? According to our tester: absolutely! In fact, they credit Simba’s top-of-the-line mattress with instantaneously resolving a shooting pain in their hip, which was aggravated by a vastly inferior mattress. Then again, it isn't difficult for the Simba Hybrid Ultra Mattress to give even a half decent mattress an inferiority complex. The mattress uses ‘kopak’, a mix of wool and bamboo. This plant fibre (one of the lightest on Earth) lends the mattress extra cooling capabilities. The equally exotic sounding coconut and latex layer is included for resistance and bounce. As with the more affordable models, the expected abundance of springs is present - this time three types totalling 7,300 - titanium, carbon and 1000 ‘pocketed barrel’ types for edge-to-edge support.
- Pros: As Simba’s most technologically advanced mattress, no feature has been overlooked, making for an elevated sleeping experience that has our tester hooked.
- Cons: Yes, the mattress is 35cm high and maybe a little tricky to navigate for shorter folk like me. And yes, I would need a whole new fitted sheet collection. But worst still I now absolutely want a Simba Hybrid Ultra Mattress but the bank account says, no!
