Should I buy a Mammoth Mattress?

Mammoth offer a wide range of mattresses, with comfort grades to suit all sleepers. With its specially designed medical grade foam, the mattresses win praise from those with medical issues. Sufferers of back and neck pain report seeing improvement in their pain and getting far better sleep with the Mammoth mattresses.

Mammoth mattresses are more expensive than many other bed in a box brands, but you’re paying for the healthcare expertise and medical grade foams that offer expert support.

On the downside, some sleepers report that they find the mattress far too hot and that it retains heat more than many other brands. And it’s worth noting that some standard sheets won’t fit on the Mammoth mattresses, as they are quite deep.

Mammoth mattresses are a more expensive choice but, if you have medical issues or pain sleeping, you may well find they’re worth the investment.

T3 rated the Mammoth mattress highly, saying: We tested this mattress for several months and throughout this time our reviewers slept noticeably better. Neither too firm nor too soft – and spongy, but without causing us to sink – the material was very responsive. It moulded to us quickly as we moved, providing a superb balance of support and comfort, whether we slept on our side, back or front.

T3 Magazine

Top Sante were fans: I’ve recently suffered a shoulder injury and sleeping has been awkward, but the Mammoth made it easy to settle into a comfortable position and I felt the mattress offered me the support I needed, most importantly, I did sleep better. The extra support doesn’t come at the cost of comfort though, it also feels luxurious and indulgent and it’s great to relax into it after a long day.



Top Sante

We have had the shine plus mattress for 6 months, the mattress was very well packaged and the quality of materials used to make the mattress are excellent. The mattress is supportive but still medium soft, you can feel your body being supported and for me it helped me relax and my muscle tension ease considerably . My back pain has decreased a lot and I have a better quality of sleep. (June 2020)

I am an extremely happy user of Mammoth Bhealthy Turano. This is the best ever mattress I have slept on! (April 2020)

Mammoth Customer

Having previously purchased a mammoth mattress two years ago, which we are delighted with, we wanted to buy another Mammoth mattress for our spare room. Both my wife and I suffer with back and hip problems and have found that the Mammoth mattress has helped tremendously. (February 2020)

Mammoth Customer

I've bought dozens of mattresses over the years but this has to be the best one I've ever had. I had a microdiscectomy on my back about five years ago and have struggled to get comfortable in bed since but have felt much better since getting this. (December 2019)

Mammoth Customer

Since delivery of our new Mammoth mattress, I've woken up after a minimum of six hours sleep refreshed and not needing painkillers to start the day. And my partner is getting a better night because I'm not waking all night. His snoring has even subsided. (August 2019)

Mammoth Customer

Lovely and comfortable, supportive yet soft, easy to spin around as per guidelines supplied. Took a week or so for initial glue like smell to dissipate, but this was clearly explained in the accompanying documents. I was going to hold on to my old mattress for a few weeks just in case but the new one was so good I took the old one to the dump after two days! (May 2019)
