Comfort
Being too hot at night is an absolute no-no for great sleep. That’s why we designed our fantastic Simbatex foam; it’s an ‘open cell’ foam, which allows thirty times the airflow of memory foam (that’s almost breezy for a bed).
Pocketed coils are not directly connected to each other; therefore, when pressure is placed on one coil, it will not drag others down with it. The coils also absorb motion transfer, so you won't feel your partner rolling around at night. Instead, you'll get soft support with a touch of bounce for the dreamiest, most luxurious sleep ever. Our unique foam layers include combine these memory foams with support foams to provide the correct balance of softness, structure and support. Not all foams are created equal and DreamCloud uses only high-end foams which when found in other mattresses retail at more than 3x the price. While other memory foams sleep hot, DreamCloud sleeps cool due to the enhanced breathability of the foams used. DreamCloud's innerspring coils have been lovingly designed to help you sleep cool and comfortable throughout the night. Due to the perfectly spaced coils, air is able to flow through the mattress freely, allowing heat to escape.
Support
You’ll find up to 1,500 of these ingenious springs nestling in our essential mattresses; each individual Aerocoil® spring flexes gently in response to you and your partner’s movements, offering personalised support to each of you without disturbing the other.
DreamCloud is a 29cm deep luxury hybrid mattress that combines the best of memory foam and pocket spring technology so that you'll spend every night floating atop lovingly crafted, meticulously chosen, scientifically optimised sleep-enhancing luxury. 15cm premium pocket springs with ActivEdge™ technology are used, providing an exceptional level of support across the whole mattress, minimising motion transfer and maximising the sleep surface all the way to the edges of the mattress. Supportive memory foam contours to ease your pressure points. Our coils are designed to provide a luxury mattress experience. Each coil is far more flexible than your average mattress spring. This allows the springs to work with the memory foam in unison to contour to your body and support pressure points for the ultimate pressure relief.
