In summary
Overall rating
The Simba mattress is technically a hybrid that combines three foam layers with a layer of micro coils.
Cooling comfort layer: On the top of the mattress is a layer of their own Simbatex foam which has been designed to allow for greater breathability and airflow while you sleep, helping to keep your temperature regulated.
Supportive pocket springs: Below this is a thin layer of springs that help to reduce motion transfer and offer more personalized support to your mattress.
Responsive memory foam: Next is a layer of memory foam that molds closely to your body to provide that luxurious memory foam feel.
Zoned base: Finally, the durable foam base provides zoned support to make sure that whatever position you sleep in, you’ll feel supported and secure.
The cover on the Simba mattress is soft and durable and can be easily removed and machine washed to ensure it stays in perfect condition for as long as possible.
The Simba mattress comes in at a medium-firm on the scale meaning it works well for most sleep styles. The memory foam layer in the center of the mattress ensures that it closely conforms to your body without feeling like you’d be stuck in one place. The mixture of springs and foam make this mattress a great option for couples who share the bed as you’re able to move around with minimal disturbance to your partner.
Thanks to the zoned support system in the base layer, the Simba mattress is able to provide effective pain relief and support to multiple sleep positions. The zoned support means that your spine will stay in alignment throughout the night, ensuring you don’t wake up with unnecessary back or joint pain.

Side sleepers will feel consistently supported on this mattress thanks to the effect of the zoned support layer on the base of the mattress. This layer helps to make sure that your hips sink lower than your shoulders do so that you stay aligned and supported throughout the night.

The Simba mattress provides the kind of sinkage and conforming that most shoppers look for when choosing a memory foam mattress, without having you feel as though you’re being swallowed by the mattress itself.
Simba has also incorporated their own Edge Lift technology to ensure that their edge support is on point. This means that no matter where you lie on the mattress, you’re going to feel supported and secure – no fear of rolling off the side of the bed here.
Thanks to the mixture of a layer springs combined with the breathable foam layers on top, the Simba mattress blows the competition out of the water when it comes to minimizing heat retention. This is one of the biggest selling points of hybrid mattresses in general, but Simba does this better than many other similar brands.
The mattress comes delivered in a box right to your door and is easy to move to your chosen bedroom. It takes just a few minutes to get it out of the box, and a further few hours for it to fully expand and be ready to use.
Our testing found that there was a small amount of off-gassing present when we opened up the Simba mattress, but this soon dissipated with an open window and a short wait.
The Simba mattress is highly responsive which is perfect for couples. The layer of springs help to stop you feeling too restricted, and it makes hardly any noise when moving around on top of it. This makes it an excellent choice for couples to enjoy intimate moments together.
Simba has made a mattress that is compatible with all standard UK and EU bed frames, but if you are using a slatted frame, it is important to make sure that the slats aren’t too far apart to make sure it can handle the heavier weight of the foam.

Simba offers free delivery and returns as standard as well as an optional mattress removal service. The Simba mattress comes with the following as standard:
The Simba mattress is probably a great choice for the majority of sleepers out there. It offers support and comfort for all sleep styles while maintaining minimal motion transference making it the perfect choice for couples and solo sleepers alike.
If you prefer a more traditional memory foam feel to your mattress, then this might not be your number one choice as the inclusion of the micro-coil layer combats this effect somewhat. You’ll still feel sinkage in the mattress, but it’s less conforming than some other similar brands.
In conclusion, we were all pleasantly surprised by how much we loved the Simba mattress. For our UK and European visitors, you’d be hard pressed to find another brand on the market that scores as highly in as many areas as this one does.
