Mattresses

A good mattress starts with three decisions: spring type (pocket or open coil), comfort layer (memory foam, hybrid, or none), and firmness level (soft, medium, or firm). Getting these right matters more than brand — the wrong firmness on a premium mattress will sleep worse than the right firmness on a budget one. Next's mattress range includes pocket sprung, open coil, memory foam, and hybrid styles from Emma and Next's own ranges including Forever Comfort, Deluxe, CoolCore, and Ortho. Available in single, double, and king sizes, with most styles sitting between €312 and €862, with the Deluxe 3000 pocket sprung reaching €1,127. Home delivery across Ireland costs €20 per order. Browse bedroom furniture, mattress toppers and protectors, duvets and pillows, beds and bed frames, and bedding sets. Spring Types Explained Open coil mattresses like the Slumber Essential use interconnected springs — they offer firm support at the lower end of the price range. Pocket sprung mattresses (Forever Comfort 1000, Deluxe 3000) house each spring in its own fabric pocket, reducing motion transfer between sleepers. The number refers to spring count — 1000 pocket springs offer good support, while 3000 provides more targeted contouring. Memory Foam and Hybrid Options Emma Original memory foam mattresses conform to body shape and relieve pressure points. Emma Hybrid models combine memory foam comfort layers with pocket springs for support, offering the benefits of both constructions. The Emma Hybrid Thermosync adds temperature regulation for sleepers who run warm, priced in the upper half of the range. Firmness Guide Medium firmness suits most sleepers and is the safest choice if you sleep in multiple positions. The Forever Comfort range offers both medium and firm options in the same 1000 pocket sprung construction, making it easy to compare. CoolCore 1500 pocket sprung mattresses use temperature-regulating fabric to keep the sleeping surface cool — a good option for warm sleepers who prefer a firm feel. The Ortho 1000 is the firmest option in the range, designed for back sleepers and those who prefer very solid support. Side sleepers generally need a softer mattress to cushion the shoulder and hip. Sizing for Irish Bedrooms Single mattresses (90x190cm) suit children's rooms and guest bedrooms. Double (135x190cm) is the standard for couples in smaller Irish bedrooms. King (150x200cm) offers more space per person and suits rooms that can accommodate a larger frame. Check your bed frame dimensions before ordering — Next mattresses follow standard UK/Irish sizing.
