Sleep without weight.
The firmest of our three Memory mattresses. A memory foam comfort layer over 3,000 individually pocketed springs, the highest count in the range, so you get the contour without the sink.
For back sleepers, heavier frames and larger couples who need pressure relief and firm support together. Worth knowing before you buy: memory runs warmer than latex or gel. Read more.
Choose how far you want to sink.
All three have the same memory foam surface. What changes is the spring count underneath, and that decides how far you travel before the bed stops you.
You sink in and stay there.
Sleepers with joint pain, lighter frames who want to feel cradled, and anyone advised they need pressure relief.

Thirty seconds, three questions
Which of the three should you be on?
Tension is the one decision that matters most, and getting it wrong is the most common reason people exchange a mattress. Answer these and we will point you at one.
How do you mostly sleep?
And your build?
What went wrong with the last one?
Our recommendation
See itA guide, not a diagnosis. If you are between two tensions, take the softer one. It is far easier to firm a bed up than to soften one down.
You are not weightless. You are evenly spread.
A firm surface takes your whole body weight through four or five small areas. Memory foam takes the same weight through all of you. That is the entire difference, and it is the reason the sensation gets described as floating.
A firm surface
What most people are onThe surface will not move, so your body has to.
Those points build up load they were never meant to hold for eight hours, so you roll to relieve them. That is what tossing and turning is. Your body solving a pressure problem while you sleep.
The Stanton
Memory over springsThe surface moves, so your body does not have to.
Warmth from your body softens the foam exactly where you are heaviest, so it yields under the hip and stays put under the lumbar curve. Nothing needs relieving, so you stop moving.
Floating is not the absence of a surface. It is the absence of a pressure point.
Drag the slider. Watch the pressure leave.
Same body, same weight, all the way from an unyielding surface to full memory contour.

This shows the mechanism rather than a measured result.
Five layers. One of them is doing the floating.
Memory foam on its own has no structure. It compresses, it stays compressed, and within a couple of years there is a hollow where you sleep. Ours sits on a sprung core, and that is the part keeping the surface honest.

They get up. You do not find out.
This is the thing couples notice first, usually inside the first week.

Older open coil bedsWeight on one side travels straight across.
Pocket springs, plus memory
This collectionMovement is absorbed twice and goes nowhere.
Higher spring counts mean smaller, more numerous springs, so the isolation gets finer. This one runs 3000 springs in king size.
We never put it in a box.
A boxed mattress is compressed to roughly a fifth of its depth, vacuum sealed, and left rolled in a warehouse and then a van. Foam is not indifferent to that.
No 72 hour wait
Ours arrives at full depth and is ready the night it lands. No expansion period, and no wondering whether the dip in the middle is the foam or the mattress.
Never vacuum packed
Boxed foam is sealed under vacuum, which traps the new foam smell until you open it. Ours arrives flat in our own van. Unwrap it, air the room for a day and it is ready.
Built after you order
Made to your size in our own factory after you order, rather than sitting compressed in a warehouse. Lead time is currently 13 days.
Compression figures describe the boxed category in general, not any named competitor.

Where we win, and where we do not.
You are almost certainly looking at a boxed brand as well. Here is the honest version.
| The Memory Collection | A typical boxed memory brand | |
|---|---|---|
| Feels offered | Three, chosen before it is built | Usually one per model |
| Springs | 1,000 to 3,000, pocketed | Often none, or a single spring tier |
| Where it is made | Our own British factory | Typically imported |
| Compressed for shipping | No | Yes |
| If the feel is wrong | 90-Night Comfort Exchange | Return windows of 100 to 200 nights, often with conditions |
| Starting price | From £679 | Often discounted below £400 |
The questions we actually get.
Will it sleep hot?
Memory foam does hold warmth, which is why we never use it as a solid slab. The sprung core underneath is mostly air, so heat moves down and out rather than collecting under you. If you sleep hot, look at the Gel Hybrid range instead, which is built for exactly that.
Which feel should I choose?
Side sleepers and lighter frames usually want the Haven. Front sleepers, heavier frames and anyone who dislikes the sinking sensation want the Stanton. Most people, and most couples who disagree, land on the Camden. If you are stuck, ring us and we will talk it through rather than guess for you.
What happens if I get it wrong?
Every mattress we make comes with our 90-Night Comfort Exchange. If the tension is not right for you, we will exchange it. Give it at least two weeks before you judge it, because memory foam behaves differently once the room has warmed it and it has settled to you.
Will it fit my bed?
Any standard UK divan, slatted frame or ottoman base in the matching size. On an adjustable base, ring us first: the softer feels flex well, the Stanton is less willing at 3,000 springs.
Do I need to turn it?
Rotate it head to toe every three months. Do not flip it. The memory layer is on one side only.
How long until it arrives?
13 working days. We build it once you order rather than pulling it off a pallet. Drop off delivery is free, in our own vans. Two man installation into the room of your choice is £120, and we can take your old mattress away for recycling for £80.
Does it contain latex?
No. The Memory and Gel Hybrid ranges contain no latex, which makes them the right choice if you have a latex allergy.
Stop holding yourself up at night.
